placed on the set or described in the operating instructions or service
manual.
WARNING
I"o guard against inim'y, the followhlg basic safety precautions should be
observed in the installation, use and servicing of the set.
Use
Power Sources
This set should be operated only from the type of
power source indicated on the serial/model
plate. If you are not sure of the type of electrical
power supplied to your home, consult your
dealer or local power company. For those sets
designed to operate from battery power, wfer to
tile operating instructions.
Grounding or Polarization
This set is equipped with a polarized AC power cord plug (a plug having
one blade wider than the other), or with a three-wire grounding type plug
(a plug having a third pin for grounding). Follow the il_structions below:
For the set with a polarized AC power cord plug
This plug wil! 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
tile plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact your
electrician to have a suitable outlet irtstalled. Do
not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized
plug by forcing it in.
Alternate Warning
For the set with a three-wire grounding type AC plug
This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power €__7-'_ X
outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to [V__* 7 "rl/II[,r_
insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician _ }/_
to have a suitab!e outlet installed. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the grounding plug.
Overloading
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or
convenience receptacles beyond their capacity, since this
can result in fire or electric shock.
Always turn the set off when it is not being used. When
the set is left unattended and unused for long periods of
time, unplug it from the wall outlet as a precaution
against the possibility of an internal malfunction that
could create a fieo hazard.
If a snapping or popping sound from a TV set is 9 -
continuous or frequent while the TV is operating, unplug p _':@
tile 'IV and consult your dealer or service technician. It is , _ ,,,
norn_al for some TV sets to make occasional snapping or j'_ -7/: _C
popping sounds, particularly when being turned on or I_41_
off.
Object and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind into the set through the _11_1_,/_
cabinet slots as they may touch dangerous voltage
points or short out parts that could result in a fire or
electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the set.
Cleaning
Unplug tile set from the wall outlet before cleaning
or polishing it. Do not use liquid cleane_ or aerosol
cleaners. Use a cloth lightly dampened with water
for cleaning the exterior of tile set.
Installation
Attachments
Do not use attachments not recommended by the
nlanufacturer, as they may cause hazards.
Water and Moisture
DO not use power-fine opelated sets near water -- for
example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or
laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool,
etc.
Corrosion
Use of this set near the seashore may subject the set to excessive salt,
corrosion and internal damage and result in deterioration of the seFs
performance. If the set will be subjected to these conditions, steps should be
taken to reduce the humidity and temperature of the area where the set is
located.
Accessories
DO not place the set on an unstable cart, stand, table
or shelf. The set may fall, causing serious injury to a
child or an adult and serious damage to the set. Use
only a cart or stand recommended by Sony for the
specific model of 'IV. No part of the TV set should
overhang any edge of the 'IW cart or stand; any
overhanging edge is a safety hazard. An appliance and
cart combination should be moved with care. Quick
stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the
appliance and cart combination to overturn.
®
Ventilation
Ti_e slots and openings in the cabinet and in the back or bottom are
provided for necessary ventilation. To ensure Peliab Ie operation of the set,
and to protect it from overheating, these slots and openings must never be
blocked or covePod.

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 overhead power
lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can come in contact
with such power lines or circuits.
WHEN INSTALLING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA SYSTEM, EXTREME
CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO KEEP FROM CONTACTING SUCH
POWER LINES OR CIRCUITS AS CONTACT WITH THEM !S ALMOST
INVARIABLY FATAL.
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 USA and Section 54 of the Canadian
Electrical Code in Canada provides information with respect to proper
grounding of the mast and supporting sh'ucture, grounding of the lead-in
wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of
antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.
