Outdoor Antenna Grounding
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TV, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.
Replacement Parts
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts speci­fied by the manufacturer or have the same character­istics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.
11) Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12) 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.
13) Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
14) Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
To avoid the risk of injury to the eyes and face, do not look directly into the air vents while the television is operating.
To avoid the risk of fire, do not use flammable solvents (such as benzene or paint solvents) or flammable aero­sols (such as polishes, cleaners, or insecticides) near the television while it is operating or cooling.
