and other terminals to ground.
•To avoid battery leakage and damage to the remote, remove the batteries from the
remote if you are not going to use it for several days. If any liquid leaks from the
batteries and touches your skin, immediately wash it away with water.
For your own safety, do not touch any part of the
TV, the power cord and the antenna cable during
lightning storms.
Do not place any objects on the TV. The apparatus
