IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CHILD SAFETY:

It Makes A Difference How and Where You Use Your Flat Panel Display

Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new product, please keep these safety tips in mind:

THE ISSUE

•

The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend and larger ﬂ at panel displays are popular purchases. However, ﬂ at panel displays are not always supported on the proper stands or installed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.

•

Flat panel displays that are inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers, chests or carts may fall over and cause injury.

THIS MANUFACTURER CARES!

•

The consumer electronics industry is committed to making home entertainment enjoyable and safe.

TUNE INTO SAFETY

One size does NOT ﬁ t all. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the safe

• installation and use of your ﬂ at panel display. Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for proper use of this product.

• Don’t allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television sets.

• Don’t place ﬂ at panel displays on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as

• a chest of drawers. Remember that children can become excited while watching a program, especially

• on a “larger than life” ﬂ at panel display. Care should be taken to place or install the display where it cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.

•

Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the ﬂ at panel display so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children.

WALL MOUNTING: IF YOU DECIDE TO WALL MOUNT YOUR FLAT PANEL DISPLAY, ALWAYS:

•

Use a mount that has been recommended by the display manufacturer and/or listed by an independent laboratory (such as UL, CSA, ETL).

•

Follow all instructions supplied by the display and wall mount manufacturers.

•

If you have any doubts about your ability to safely install your ﬂ at panel display, contact your retailer about professional installation.

•

Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the display is appropriate. Some wall mounts are not designed to be mounted to walls with steel studs or old cinder block construction. If you are unsure, contact a professional installer.

Preparation

Antennas

To enjoy a clearer picture, use an outdoor antenna. The following is a brief explanation of the types of connections that are used for a coaxial cable. If your outdoor antenna uses a 75-ohm coaxial cable with an F-type connector, plug it into the antenna terminal at the rear of the TV set.

1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type connector that can easily be attached to a terminal without tools (Commercially available).

2. A 300-ohm system is a ﬂ at “twin-lead” cable that can be attached to a 75-ohm terminal through a 300/75-ohm adapter (Commercially available).

NOTICE

F-type connector should be ﬁ nger-tightened only.

When connecting the RF cable to the TV set, do not tighten F-type connector with tools. If tools are used, it may cause damage to your TV set. (The breaking of internal circuit, etc.)
