convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
product.
14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna or cable
system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable
system is grounded so as to provide some protection against
voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 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
grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit,
connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the
grounding electrode. See Figure 1.
15. Lightning - For added protection for this product during a lightning
storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of
time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or
cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to
lightning and power-line surges.
16. Power Lines - An outside antenna system should not be located in
the vicinity of overhead 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.
17. Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or
integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire
or electric shock.
18. Object and Liquid Entry - Never push objects of any kind into this
product through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage
points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock.

opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage
or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
20. Damage Requiring Service - Unplug this product form the wall
outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the
following conditions:
a) When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged,
b) If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the
product,
c) If the product has been exposed to rain or water,
d) If the product does not operate normally by following the
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions as an improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will
often require extensive work by a qualified technician to
restore the product to its normal operation.
e) If the product has been dropped or damaged in any way, and
f) When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance -
this indicates a need for service.
21. Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are required, be
sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified
by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the
original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric
shock, or other hazards.

Antennas with 300-ohm Flat Twin Leads
Antennas with 75-ohm Round Leads
If your antenna has a set of leads that look like this,
see Antennas with 300-ohm Flat Twin Leads below.
If your antenna has one lead that looks like this, see
“Antennas with 75-ohm Round Leads” below.
If you have two antennas, see “Separate VHF and
UHF Antennas”, on page 9.
If you are using an off-air antenna antenna (such as a roof antenna or “rabbit ears”) that has 300-ohm twin
flat leads, follow the directions below.

on the front panel lights up red.
When the power operation is in STANDBY mode,
the apparatus is still connected on some AC line
voltages.

home for, say, a vacation.
If the electricity fails or the AC input cord is
unplugged while the power is on and plugged it
again, your TV enters directly into STANDBY mode.
