IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Your TV is designed and manufactured to operate within defined design limits. Misuse may result in electric
shock or fire. To prevent your TV from being damaged, the following instructions should be observed for the
installation, use, and maintenance of your TV. Read the following safety instructions before operating your TV.
Keep these instructions in a safe place for future reference.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock or component damage, switch off the power before connecting other
components to your TV.
• Read these instructions.
• Keep these instructions.
• Heed all warnings.
• Follow all instructions.
• Do not use this apparatus near water.
• Clean only with a dry cloth.
• Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.
• Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades
and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided
plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, par ticularly at plugs, convenience receptacles,
and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
• Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
• Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the
apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to
avoid injury from tip-over.
• Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
• Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as when the power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled
or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not
operate normally or has been dropped.
• Unplug the power cord before cleaning your TV.
• When moving your TV from an area of low temperature to an area of high temperature, condensation may
form in the housing. Wait before turning on your TV to avoid causing fire, electric shock, or component
damage.
• A distance of at least three feet should be maintained between your TV and any heat source, such as a
radiator, heater, oven, amplifier etc. Do not install your TV close to smoke. Operating your TV close to smoke
or moisture may cause fire or electric shock.
• Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable
operation of your TV and to protect it from overheating, be sure these openings are not blocked or covered.
Do not place your TV in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided.
• Never push any object into the slots and openings on your TV cabinet. Do not place any objects on the top
of your TV. Doing so could short circuit parts causing a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquids on your TV.
• Your TV should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the label. If you are not sure of
the type of power supplied to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
• Do not apply pressure or throw objects at your TV. This may compromise the integrity of the display. The
manufacturer’s warranty does not cover user abuse or improper installations.
• The power cord must be replaced when using different voltage than the voltage specified. For more
information, contact your dealer.
• When connected to a power outlet, power is always flowing into your TV. To totally disconnect power, unplug
the power cord.
• The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of un-isolated, dangerous voltage within the inside of your TV that may be of sufficient magnitude
to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
• Do not overload power strips and extension cords. Overloading can result in fire or electric shock.
• The wall socket should be installed near your TV and easily accessible.
• Only power of the marked voltage can be used for your TV. Any other voltage than the specified voltage
may cause fire or electric shock.
• Do not touch the power cord during lightning. To avoid electric shock, avoid handling the power cord
during electrical storms.
• Unplug your TV during a lightning storm or when it will not be used for long period of time. This will protect
your TV from damage due to power surges.
• Do not attempt to repair or service your TV yourself. Opening or removing the back cover may expose you
to high voltages, electric shock, and other hazards. If repair is required, contact your dealer and refer all
servicing to qualified service personnel.
• WARNING: Keep your TV away from moisture. Do not expose your TV to rain or moisture. If water penetrates
into your TV, unplug the power cord and contact your dealer. Continuous use in this case may result in fire
or electric shock.
• Do not use your TV if any abnormality occurs. If any smoke or odor becomes apparent, unplug the power
cord and contact your dealer immediately. Do not try to repair your TV yourself.
• Avoid using dropped or damaged appliances. If your TV is dropped and the housing is damaged, the
internal components may function abnormally. Unplug the power cord immediately and contact your
dealer for repair. Continued use of your TV may cause fire or electric shock.
• Do not install your TV in an area with heavy dust or high humidity. Operating your TV in environments with
heavy dust or high humidity may cause fire or electric shock.
• Follow instructions for moving your TV. Ensure that the power cord and any other cables are unplugged
before moving your TV.
• When unplugging your TV, hold the AC/DC power adapter, not the cord. Pulling on the power cord may
damage the wires inside the cord and cause fire or electric shock. When your TV will not be used for an
extended period of time, unplug the power cord.
• To reduce risk of electric shock, do not touch the connector with wet hands.
• Insert batteries in accordance with instructions. Incorrect polarities may cause the batteries to leak which
can damage the remote control or injure the operator. Do not expose batteries to excessive heat such as
sunshine, fire or the like.
• If any of the following occurs, contact the dealer:
- The power cord fails or frays.
- Liquid sprays or any object drops into your TV.
- Your TV is exposed to rain or other moisture.
- Your TV is dropped or damaged in any way.
- The performance of your TV changes substantially.
• This apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as
vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.
• The mains plug or appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect device shall
remain readily operable.
• CAUTION - These servicing instructions are for use by qualified service personnel only. To reduce the risk
of electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than that contained in the operating instructions
unless you are qualified to do so.
• The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the
user to the presence of uninsulated DANGEROUS VOLTAGE within the product’s enclosure that
may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electrical shock to persons.

• If an outside antenna/satellite dish or cable system is to be connected to
the TV, make sure that the antenna or cable system is electrically grounded
to provide some protection against voltage surges and static charges.
• Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPSA 70, provides
information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting
structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit,
size of the grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit,
connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements of the grounding
electrode.

• Lightning Protection: For added protection of the TV during a lightning
storm or when it is left unattended or unused for long periods of time,
unplug the TV from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable
system.
• Power Lines: Do not locate the antenna near overhead light or power
circuits, or where it could fall into such power lines or circuits. Remember,
the screen of the coaxial cable is intended to be connected to earth in the
building installation.
