dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in fire or electric shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind on or into the TV.
14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TV, be sure the antenna or
cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and
built-up static charges.

you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
16. Damage Requiring Service

Making Connections
LAN (Wired setup)
Connect your TV to your network by connecting the LAN port on the back of your
TV to an external modem or router using a LAN (Ethernet/Cat 5) cable. See the
illustration below.
·We recommend you to use a modem or router that supports Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP). Modems and routers that support DHCP
automatically provide the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS, so you
don’t have to enter them manually. Most home networks already have DHCP.
