communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined
by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one
or more of the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.

- Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

(1) This device may not cause (harmful) interference,
and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause unde­sired operation (of the device).

without written authorization from LG Electronics.
Unauthorized modification could void the user’s
authority to operate this product.

The lightning flash with arrowhead
symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is

intended to alert the user to the presence
of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the
product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient
magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to
persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral

triangle is intended to alert the user to
the presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the litera­ture accompanying the appliance.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO

USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER TO

QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

WARNING/CAUTION

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE AND ELECTRIC
SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO
RAIN OR MOISTURE.

NOTE TO CABLE/TV INSTALLER

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system
installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the National
Electric Code (U.S.A.). The code provides guidelines for
proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the
cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system
of the building, as close to the point of the cable entry
as practical.

Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized
or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has
two blades with one wider than the other. A
grounding type plug has two blades and a
third grounding prong, The wide blade or the
third prong are provided for your safety. If the
provided plug does not fit into your outlet,
consult an electrician for replacement of the

or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from
the apparatus.

Only use attachments/accessories specified by
the manufacturer.

Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket,
or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold
with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use
caution when moving the cart/apparatus com­bination to avoid injury from tip-over.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Never touch this apparatus or antenna during
a thunder or lighting storm.

When mounting a TV on the wall, make sure
not to install the TV by the hanging power and
signal cables on the back of the TV.

Do not allow an impact shock or any objects to
fall into the product, and do not drop onto the
screen with something.

CAUTION concerning the Power Cord:
It is recommend that appliances be placed

upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a single
outlet circuit which powers only that appliance
and has no additional outlets or branch
circuits. Check the specification page of this
owner's manual to be certain.

Do not connect too many appliances to the
same AC power outlet as this could result in
fire or electric shock.

Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall
outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension
cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or
cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of
these conditions could result in electric shock
or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your
appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage
or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of
the appliance, and have the cord replaced with
an exact replacement part by an authorized
servicer. Protect the power cord from physical
or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted,
kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked
upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall
outlets, and the point where the cord exits the
appliance.

Do not make the apparatus with the power
cord plugged in. Do not use a damaged or
loose power cord. Be sure do grasp the plug
when unplugging the power cord. Do not pull
on the power cord to unplug the apparatus.

WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire or electrical
shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain,
moisture or other liquids. Do not touch the
apparatus with wet hands. Do not install this
apparatus near flammable objects such as
gasoline or candles or expose the apparatus
to direct air conditioning.

Do not expose to dripping or splashing and do
not place objects filled with liquids, such as
vases, cups, etc. on or over the apparatus (e.g.
on shelves above the unit).

GRO UND I NG

Ensure that you connect the earth ground wire
to prevent possible electric shock (i.e. this
apparatus with a three-prong grounded AC
plug must be connected to a three-prong
grounded AC outlet). If grounding methods
are not possible, have a qualified electrician
install a separate circuit breaker.

Do not try to ground the apparatus by con­necting it to telephone wires, lightening rods,
or gas pipes.

DISCONNECTING DEVICE FROM MAINS

Mains plug is the disconnecting device. The
plug must remain readily operable.

As long as this unit is connected to the AC wall
outlet, it is not disconnected from the AC
power source even if you turn off this unit by
SWITCH.

ANT ENN AS
Outd oor an tenn a grou ndin g

If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the
precautions below. An outdoor antenna system
should not be located in the vicinity of over­head power lines or other electric light or
power circuits, or where it can come in contact
with such power lines or circuits as death or
serious injury can occur.

Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as
to provide some protection against voltage
surges and built-up static charges.

Section 810 of the National Electrical Code
(NEC) in the U.S.A. provides information with
respect to proper grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in
wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of
grounding conductors, location of antenna dis­charge unit, connection to grounding elec­trodes and requirements for the grounding
electrode.

Antenna grounding according to the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70
