supplied to your home consult your television dealer or local power company. For television receivers designed to
operate from battery power, refer to the operating instructions.
9. This television receiver is equipped with a polarized alternating^urrent line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the
other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug
fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If
the plug should still fail to fit, contact your
electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do
not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized
plug.
10. Do not allow anything to rest on the power
cord. Do not locate this television receiver
where the cord will be abused by persons
walking on it.

that are covered by the operating instructions as improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will
often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the television receiver to normal operation.
If the television receiver has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
e.
When the television receiver exhibits a distinct change in performance - this indicates a need for service.
f.
18. Do not attempt to service this television receiver yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous
voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
19. When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the
manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire,
electric shock, or other hazards.
20. Upon completion of any service or repairs to this television receiver, ask the service technician to perform routine safety
checks to determine that the television is in safe operating condition.
21. WARNING: To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture.
22. CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT USE THIS (POLARIZED) PLUG WITH A RECEPTACLE OR
OTHER OUTLET UNLESS THE BLADES CAN BE FULLY INSERTED TO PREVENT BLADE EXPOSURE.
NOTE: This equipment is designed to operate in the U.S.A., Canada and other countries where the broadcasting system and
AC house current is exactly the same as in the U.S.A. and Canada.
Important Information Regarding Use of Video Games, Computers, Teletext or Other Fixed Image Displays.
The extended use of fixed image program material can cause a permanent “shadow image” on the picture tube. This
background image is viewable on normal programs in the form of a stationary fixed image. This type of irreversible picture
tube deterioration can be limited by observing the following steps:
A. Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum viewing level.
B. Do not display the fixed image for extended periods of time.
C. Turn the power off when not in actual use.
NOTE: The marking or retained image on the picture tube resulting from fixed image use is not an operating defect and as
such is not covered by Warranty. This product is not designed to display fixed image patterns for extended periods of
time.

Spatializer — spatializer is a system that makes
normal stereo sound more real. When an individual listens
to stereo, the sensation is that there is a wall of sound from
two speakers. Sound experts call this sensation or illusion,
"Psycho-Acoustic.” Our brain and ears work together to
combine the sounds from the two speakers to create the
illusion of a wall of sound. This television uses the
Spatializer feature to apply the Psycho-Acoustic illusion
to create a 3-dimensional sound from the two speakers.
When Spatializer is working, the sound feels as if it is
coming from multiple speakers, surrounding the listener.
The result is that the stereo system now sounds as though
the listener is actually in the studio or concert hall with the
performers.
