DIGITAL TELEVISION TRANSITION NOTICE

ENGLISH
DIGITAL TELEVISION TRANSITION NOTICE
This device contains a digital television tuner, so it should receive digital over the air
TV programming, with a suitable antenna, after the end of full-power analog TV
broadcasting in the United States on February 17, 2009. Some older television
receivers, if they rely on a TV antenna, will need a TV converter to receive over the
air digital programming, but should continue to work as before for other purposes
(e.g., for watching low-power TV stations still broadcasting in analog, watching
pre-recorded movies, or playing video games).
For more information, call the FCC at 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-225-5322) or see
www.DTV.gov. For information on the TV Converter program, and on government
coupons that may be used toward the purchase of one, see www.dtv2009.gov, or call
the NTIA at 1-888-DTV-2009.
AVISO RELATIVO A LA TRANSICIÓN A TELEVISIÓN
DIGITAL
Este equipo incorpora un sintonizador de televisión digital, lo que le permitirá recibir
una programación digital televisada por aire, con una antena adecuada, cuando se
terminará la transmisión de alta potencia de la televisión analógica en los Estados
Unidos el 17 de febrero de 2009. Ciertos receptores de televisión antiguos, si
dependen de una antena de TV, necesitarán un conversor de TV para recibir por el
aire una programación digital, pero seguirán funcionando como antes para otros
usos (por ejemplo para ver emisoras de TV de baja potencia que todavía transmiten
en analógico, para ver películas pregrabadas, o para utilizar sus videojuegos).
Para obtener más información, llame FCC 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-225-5322) o
refiérase a www.DTV.gov. Para toda información sobre el programa de conversores
de TV, y acerca de los cupones del gobierno que se pueden usar para comprarlos,
refiérase a www.dtv2009.gov, o llame al NTIA al 1-888-DTV-2009.

Important Notices Concerning Power Cord Selection
The specific power cord for this LCD TV is enclosed and has been selected
according to the country of destination. Use the enclosed power cord to prevent
electric shock. Observe the following guidelines if it is necessary to replace the
original cord set, or if there is no cord set enclosed. The female receptacle of the cord
set must meet IEC-60320 requirements and should look like Figure A1 below:
For the United States and Canada
In the United States and Canada the male plug is a NEMA5-15 style (Figure A2),
UL-listed, and CSA-labeled. For LCD TVs that are to be placed on a desk or table,
type SVT or SJT cord sets may be used. For LCD TVs that are to be placed directly
on the floor, only SJT type cord sets may be used. The cord set must be selected
according to the current rating for the LCD TV. Consult the table below for the
selection criteria of power cords used in the United States and Canada.

FCC COMPLIANCE STATEMENT
This equipment has been tested and complies with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy, and may cause
harmful interference to radio communications if not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur
in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio
or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on,
the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•Increase the distance between the LCD TV and the receiver.
•Connect the LCD TV to an outlet on a circuit separate from to which the receiver
is connected.
•If the interference persists even after performing the above measures, consult
the Westinghouse Service Center or an experienced radio/TV technician for
assistance.
FCC Warning
To assure continued FCC compliance, use a grounded power supply cord and the
provided shielded video interface cable with bonded ferrite cores. If a BNC cable is
used, use only a shielded BNC (5) cable. Also, any unauthorized changes or
modifications not expressly approved by manufacturer will void the user's authority to
operate this device.

pinched by items placed upon or against them. Periodically inspect the cords for
damage. Install the LCD TV near a wall socket outlet where the power cord can be
readily access.
Ventilation
The slots and openings on the cabinet are provided for necessary ventilation. To
ensure reliable operation of the LCD TV and to protect it from overheating, these
slots and openings must never be blocked or covered.
Safety: Lamp Disposal
Lamp(s) inside this product contain mercury and must be recycled or disposed of
according to local, state or federal laws. For more information, contact the electronic
industries alliance at www.eiae.org.

ANTENNA INSTALLATION SAFETY
Outdoor Antenna Grounding
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the LCD TV, be sure the
antenna or cable system is grounded to prevent voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANS/NFPA 70, provides
information on proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of
the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes,
and requirements for the grounding electrode.
Lightning
Power Lines
For added protection for the LCD TV 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. DO NOT disconnect the
antenna or the power cord during a heavy storm—lightning may strike while
you are holding the cable cord, causing serious injury. Turn off the LCD TV
and wait for the weather to improve.
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.
