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 TV 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 TV.

ANTENNAS
Outdoor antenna grounding

If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the
precautions below. An outdoor antenna system

should not be located in the vicinity of over-
head 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 dis-
charge unit, connection to grounding elec-
trodes and requirements for the grounding

electrode.
