Cautions
Lightning
For added protection for your device receiver during a lightning storm, or when it is
left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the power outlet
and disconnect any antenna or cable system. This helps prevent property damage
and personal injury from lightning and power line surges.
Power Lines
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overheated power
lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines
or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken
to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be
fatal.
Handling the LCD Panel
The Panel is made of glass. Do not drop it or hit, jolt, or press hard against the
Panel. If the screen breaks, be careful of broken glass.
If the panel is broken, make absolutely sure that you do not touch inside of the
panel.
Replacement parts
When replacement parts are required, make sure that the service technician uses
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics
as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock,
personal injury, or other hazards. Ask the service technician to perform routine
safety checks to determine that the PVS is in correct operating condition after any
service or repair to this device.
Condensation
Moisture will form on the PVS if it is brought from cool surroundings into a warm
room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, the PVS’s
performance may be impaired. To prevent this, let the PVS stay in its new
surroundings for about an hour before switching on, or make sure that the room
temperature rises gradually. Condensation may also form during the summer if the
PVS is exposed to the breeze from an air conditioner. In such cases, change the
locations of the PVS.
Mobile telephone warning
To avoid interference with your picture and sound quality, operating problems, or
even damage, keep your cordless and cellular telephones away from the PVS.

Installing a wall-mount bracket
