Installing Your TV
Where to install
Place the TV on the floor or on a sturdy platform. The
mounting surface should be flat and steady.
Lighting
Do not place the TV in a room where direct lighting
strikes the screen. Use soft and indirect lighting.
Air circulation
Place the TV far enough from the walls to allow
proper ventilation. This will prevent the TV from
overheating and avoid possible damage to the TV.
Avoid dusty places too.
Power supply
Plug into an electrical outlet with standard household
power (120 volt AC, 60Hz). Do not change the plug's
safety prong. See the right column.
/
WARNING : TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY
• Do not stand or climb on the TV.
• Do not put a VCR or any heavy object on top of the
TV.
CAUTION :
As a safety feature, the plug has one prong wider than
the other. It will fit only one way into a standard
electrical outlet. If the plug will not fit into the outlet,
try turning it around. If the plug will not fit either way,
the outlet is probably old and non-standard.
You will need to have a new outlet installed by an
electrician.

the rear panel of the TV, you will see that the terminals are
color coded in the same manner as the cables. _
• S-video cables provide better picture performance. S-video
cables can only be used with S-video compatible components. _
• ColorStream TM cables come in sets of three and provide the
best picture performance. ColorStream cables can only be
used with ColorStream compatible components.
