fiers) that produce
heat.
• Do not defeat the safety purpose of the

• Protect the power cord from being walked on
or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles,
and
the point where
they
exit
from the apparatus.
• Only use attachments/accessories specified
by the manufacturer.
~~~
• Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket,
or table specified by the manufacturer, or
so
ld
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

of
time.
• Refer
all
servicing
to
qualified service

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

• Keep the packing anti-moistu
re
material or
vinyl packing out
of
the reach of children.
Anti-moisture mater
ia
l
is
harmful if
swallowed. If swallowed by mistake, force
the patient to vomit and visit the nearest
hospital. Additionally, vinyl packing
can
cause suffocation. Keep it
out
of the reach
of
children.
• CAUTION concerning the Power Cord
(Can
differ by country):
It
is
recommended 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
po
we
r 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 c
rac
ked wire insulation
are
dangerous. Any
of
these conditions could
result
in
electric shock or fi
re.
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 replac
ed
with
an
exact replacement part by
an
authorized service. Protect the
power
cord
from physical or mechani
ca
l abuse, such
as
being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed
in
a
door, or walked upon.
Pay
particular attention
to plugs, wall outlets, and the point
wh
ere
the cord exits the appliance.
Do
not
move
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
