• 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 re, 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, amplier

etc. Do not install your TV close to smoke. Operating your TV close to

smoke or moisture may cause re 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.

TELEVISION ANTENNA CONNECTION PROTECTION

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.
