1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with a dry cloth.
7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9. 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 obsolete outlet.
risk of injury and equipment damage.

10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles,
and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

CAUTION: Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by
the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used,

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.
15.
CAUTION: To avoid personal injury or damage to the television, always use at least two
!
16. If the television is moved from a cold area, do not turn the television on for a few hours. This will allow the
unit to warm sufficiently to evaporate any condensation.
17. Install the television upright on a horizontal, solid, flat surface away from excessive heat, dust, and
vibration.
18. Keep a clearance of at least 4 inches (10 cm) between the vents on the back and/or sides of the
television and nearby walls or enclosures. Allow free air circulation to prevent excessive heat build up
that could cause the set to shut down or damage the television. Keep flammable objects susceptible to
heat damage at least 2 feet (0.5 m) away from the television’s vents.
19. Do not allow food, small objects, or liquid to get inside the television. If this should occur, contact product
support for assistance. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
20. Operate only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type
of power supplied to your home, consult your television dealer or local power company.
21. Do not handle the power cord with wet hands. Doing so may cause electric shock.
22. Do not place hands, face, or other objects near the ventilation holes of the television. Because the
ventilation holes release heat, doing so could result in damage to the television or personal injury.

are no user serviceable parts inside this television. Any servicing should be
referred to qualified service personnel only. Under no circumstances should
anyone other than a qualified service technician attempt to remove the cover of
this television or service it.
AN UNAPPROVED CART, STAND, BRACKET, HARDWARE, OR

25. Servicing is required if the television has been damaged in any way, such as if the power cord or power
plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the television, or the television has
been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

27. If any of the following conditions occur, immediately unplug the television from the wall outlet and contact
a qualified service technician to repair:
a. If the power cord or plug becomes damaged or frayed, do not attempt to unplug — locate the
appropriate circuit breaker and disable the outlet;
b. If the television has been exposed to rain, water, or other liquid;
c. If the television does not operate normally when operated as instructed in the operating instructions,
adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions – improper adjustment of
other controls may result in damage to the television that could require extensive work by a qualified
technician to restore to the television to normal operation;
d. If the television has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged;
e. If the television exhibits a distinct change in performance – this usually indicates that service is
required.
28. Should repair become necessary, advise the service technician servicing your television to only use parts
specified by the manufacturer. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electrical shock, or other
hazards.

In addition to these general precautions, be sure to observe the following precautions when using external
television antennas and cable systems with your new television. Failure to observe these precautions could result
in fire, bodily injury, and damage to your television.
SMALL CHILDREN. THESE OBJECTS CAN BE ACCIDENTALLY
SWALLOWED AND RESULT IN CHOKING, SUFFOCATION, OTHER

may cause choking, suffocation, other serious injury, and possibly death.
• Call the CATV (cable television) system installer’s attention to Section 820-40 of the NEC (U.S.
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70), or Canadian Electrical Code (CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 1),
which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground
must be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as
practical.
• If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the television, be sure the antenna or cable
system is electrically grounded to protect against voltage surges and built up static charges. Article
810 of the NEC (U.S. National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70) or Canadian Electrical Code (CAN/
CSA-C22.2 No. 1) provides information about proper electrical grounding of the mast and supporting
structure, grounding of the “lead-in” wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,
vi
location of the antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements of the
grounding electrode.
• Do not place an outside antenna in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or
power circuits, or where it could fall on power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna
system, take extreme care to avoid touching overhead power lines that may be present at your
location.

Regulatory Information
This section presents information that shows how your TV complies with regulations in certain regions. Any
modifications to your TV not expressly approved by NuVision could void the authority to operate the TV in these
regions.
U.S.A.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio 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 into 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 digital television is capable of receiving analog basic and digital basic cable television programming by direct
connection to a cable system providing such programming. Certain advanced and interactive digital cable services
such as video-on-demand, a cable operator's enhanced program guide, and data-enhanced television services
may require the use of a set-top box. For more information call your local cable operator.
When making connections to peripheral devices, to maintain compliance with FCC Rules and Regulations, use
properly shielded cables with this device.
