PrecautionsInstalling and Connecting the Projection TV (continued)
Safety
•Operate the projection TV only on 120 V AC.
•The plug is designed, for safety purposes, to fit into the wall outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, contact your dealer.
•If any liquid or solid object should fall inside the cabinet, unplug the projection TV immediately and have it checked by qualified service personnel before operating it further.
•If you will not be using the projection TV for several days, disconnect the power by pulling the plug itself. Never pull on the cord.
Note on cleaning
Clean the cabinet of the projection TV with a dry soft cloth. To remove dust from the screen, wipe it gently with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth slightly dampened with solution of mild soap and warm water. Never use strong solvents such as thinner or benzine for cleaning.
If the picture becomes dark after using the projection TV for a long period of time, it may be necessary to clean the inside of the projection TV. Consult qualified service personnel.
Installing
•To prevent internal heat buildup, do not block the ventilation openings.
•Do not install the projection TV in a hot or humid place, or in a place subject to excessive dust or mechanical vibration.
•Avoid operating the projection TV at temperatures below 5° C (41° F).
•If the projection TV is transported directly from a cold to a warm location, or if the room temperature changes suddenly, the picture may be blurred or show poor color. In this case, please wait a few hours to let the moisture evaporate before turning on the projection TV.
•To obtain the best picture, do not expose the screen to direct illumination or direct sunlight. It is recommended to use spot lighting directed down from the ceiling or to cover the windows that face the screen with opaque drapery. It is desirable to install the projection TV in a room where the floor and walls are not of a reflective material.

Do not use power-line |
|
operated sets near |
|
water— for example, near |
|
a bathtub, washbowl, |
|
kitchen sink, or laundry |
|
tub, in a wet basement or |
|

etc. |
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 the manufacturer for the specific model of projection TV.
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
The slots and openings in the cabinet and in the back or bottom are provided for necessary ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the set, and to protect it from overheating, these slots and openings must never be blocked or covered.
- Never cover the slots and openings with a cloth or other materials.
-Never block the slots and openings by placing the set on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface.
-Never place the set in a confined space, such as a bookcase, or built-in cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided.
-Do not place the set near or over a radiator or heat register, or where it is exposed to direct sunlight.
Power-Cord Protection
Do not allow anything to rest on or roll over the power cord, and do not place the set where the power cord is subject to wear or abuse.
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 IS 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 structure, 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.
