NOTE TO CABLE/TV INSTALLER
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system
installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the
National Electric Code (U.S.A.). The code provides
guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular,
specifies that the cable ground shall be connected
to the grounding system of the building, as close to
the point of the cable entry as practical.
WARNING/CAUTION
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE AND ELECTRIC
SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO

17 GROUNDING
Ensure that you connect the earth ground wire
to prevent possible electric shock. (i.e. a TV
with a three-prong grounded AC plug must be
connected to a three-prong grouned AC
outlet) If grounding methods are not possible,
have a qualified electrician install a separate
circuit breaker.
Do not try to ground the unit by connecting it
to telephone wires, lightening rods, or gas
pipes.

18 DISCONNECTING DEVICE FROM MAINS
Mains plug is the disconnecting device. The
plug must remain readily operable.
19 Keep the product away from direct sunlight.
11 Never touch this apparatus or antenna during
a thunder or lighting storm.
12 When mounting a TV on the wall, make sure
not to install the TV by the hanging power and
signal cables on the back of the TV.
13 Do not allow an impact shock or any objects to
fall into the product, and do not drop onto the
screen with something.
14 CAUTION concerning the Power Cord :
It is recommend that appliances be placed
upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a single outlet
circuit which powers only that appliance and
has no additional outlets or branch circuits.
Check the specification page of this owner's
manual to be certain.
Do not connect too many appliances to the
same AC power outlet as this could result in
fire or electric shock.
Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall
outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets,
extension cords, frayed power cords, or
damaged or cracked wire insulation are
dangerous. Any of these conditions could
result in electric shock or fire. Periodically
examine the cord of your appliance, and if its
appearance indicates damage or deterioration,
unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance, and
have the cord replaced with an exact
replacement part by an authorized servicer.
Protect the power cord from physical or
mechanical abuse, such as being twisted,
kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked
upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall
outlets, and the point where the cord exits the
appliance.
Do not make the TV with the power cord
plugged in. Do not use a damaged or loose
power cord. Be sure do grasp the plug when
unplugging the power cord. Do not pull on the
power cord to unplug the TV.

20 ANTENNAS
Outdoor antenna grounding
If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the
precautions below. An outdoor antenna system
should not be located in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric light or
power circuits, or where it can come in contact
with such power lines or circuits as death or
serious injury can occur.
Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as
to provide some protection against voltage
surges and built-up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electrical Code
(NEC) in the U.S.A. provides information with
respect to proper grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in
wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of
grounding conductors, location of antenna
discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes and requirements for the grounding
electrode.

21 Cleaning
When cleaning, unplug the power cord and
scrub gently with a soft cloth to prevent
scratching. Do not spray water or other liquids
directly on the TV as electric shock may occur.
Do not clean with chemicals such as alcohol,
thinners or benzene.
22 Moving
Make sure the product is turned off, unplugged
and all cables have been removed. It may take
2 or more people to carry larger TVs. Do not
press against or put stress on the front panel
of the TV.
23 Ventilation
Install your TV where there is proper
ventilation. Do not install in a confined space
such as a bookcase. Do not cover the product
with cloth or other materials (e.g.) plastic while
plugged in. Do not install in excessively dusty
places.
24 Take care not to touch the ventilation
openings. When watching the TV for a long
period, the ventilation openings may become
hot.
25 If you smell smoke or other odors coming from
the TV or hear strange sounds, unplug the
power cord contact and authorized service
center.
26 Do not press strongly upon the panel with a
hand or sharp object such as nail, pencil or pen,
or make a scratch on it.

28 For LCD TV
If the TV feels cold to the touch, there may be
a small “flicker” when it is turned on. This is
normal, there is nothing wrong with TV.
Some minute dot defects may be visible on the
screen, appearing as tiny red, green, or blue
spots. However, they have no adverse effect on
the monitor's performance.
Avoid touching the LCD screen or holding your
finger(s) against it for long periods of time.
Doing so may produce some temporary
distortion effects on the screen.
