design, and is designed for reliable and

trouble-free performance.

Safety information

Electric shock warning

Important safeguards

• Read these instructions.

• Keep these instructions for later use.

• Follow all warnings and instructions.

• To avoid hazards, use only attachments

recommended by your television

manufacturer.

• Do not use your television near water, such

as near a bathtub, sink, or swimming pool.

Do not expose your television to dripping or

splashing, and do not place any objects filled

with liquids (such as vases) on the television.

• Use a dry cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid

cleaners or aerosol cleaners.

• Do not block any ventilation openings. Install

your television in accordance with the

manufacturer’s instructions.

• Do not install near any heat sources such as

radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other

apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce

heat.

• Do not place your

television on an unstable

cart, stand, or table. Your

television may fall,

causing serious injury to

a child or adult, and

serious damage to your

television. Use your

television only with a

cart, stand, tripod,

bracket, or table sold with your television.

• Never attempt to move the television unless

the AC power cord has been disconnected.

• Slots and openings in the sides, back, and

bottom are provided for ventilation, to ensure

reliable operation of your television, and to

protect it from overheating.

• These openings must not be blocked or

covered. The openings should never be

blocked by placing your television on a bed,

sofa, rug, or other soft surface. Your

television should never be placed near or

over a radiator or heat register.

• Your television should not be placed in a

built-in installation, such as a bookcase,

unless proper ventilation is provided.

• Do not defeat the safety purpose of the

polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized

plug has two blades with one wider than the

other. A grounding type plug has two blades

and a third grounding prong. The wide blade

or the third prong are provided for your safety.

If the provided plug does not fit into your

outlet, consult an electrician for replacement

of the obsolete outlet.

• Your television should be operated only from

the type of power source indicated on the

marking label. If you are not sure of the

power supplied to your home, ask your local

power company.

• Do not let anything rest on the power cord,

and do not locate your television where the

cord may be stepped on.

Warning

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose your

television to rain or moisture.

Warning

For continued safety, replace safety critical components only

with manufacturer’s recommended parts (refer to service

literature).

Warning

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover or

back. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer

servicing to qualified service personnel.

This lightning flash with the arrowhead symbol

within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the

user to the presence of uninsulated dangerous

voltage within the television’s enclosure that may

be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of

electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle

is intended to alert the user to the presence of

important operating and maintenance (servicing)

instructions in the literature accompanying the

• If an outside antenna or cable system is

connected to your television, make sure that

the antenna or cable system is grounded 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.

• Use No. 10AWG (5.3 mm

2

) copper,

No. 8AWG (8.4 mm

2

) aluminum,

No. 17AWG (1.0 mm

2

) copper-clad steel

or bronze wire, or larger, as a ground wire.

• Secure the antenna lead-in and ground

wires to the house with stand-off

insulators spaced from 4-6 feet

(1.22-1.83 meter) apart.

• Mount the antenna discharge unit as

close as possible to where the lead-in

enters the house.

• Use a jumper wire not smaller than

No. 6AWG (13.3 mm

2

) copper, or the

equivalent, when a separate

antenna-grounding electrode is used. See

ANSI/NFPA70.

• For added protection for your television

during a lightning storm, or when it is left

unattended and unused for long periods of

time, unplug it from the power outlet and

disconnect it from the antenna or cable

system. This prevents damage to your

television due to lightning and power line

surges.

• An outside antenna system should not be

located in the vicinity of overhead 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.

• Do not overload power outlets and extension

cords because overloading can cause a fire

or electric shock.

• Never push objects of any kind into your

television through slots in the case because

they may touch dangerous voltage points or

short out parts that could result in a fire or

electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind

on your television.

• Do not attempt to service your television

yourself because opening or removing covers

may expose you to dangerous voltages or

other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified

service technicians.

• Unplug your television from the power outlet

and refer servicing to qualified service

technicians under the following conditions:

• When the power cord or plug is damaged

or frayed.

• If liquid has been spilled into your

television.

• If your television has been exposed to rain

or water.

• If your television does not operate

normally by following the operating

instructions. Adjust only those controls

that are covered by the operating

instructions because incorrect adjustment

of other controls may result in damage

and often requires extensive work by a

qualified technician to restore normal

operation.

• If your television has been dropped or the

case has been damaged.

• When your television exhibits a distinct

change in performance.

• When replacement parts are required, make

sure that the service technician uses

replacement parts specified by the

manufacturer that have the same

characteristics as the original part.

Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire,

electric shock, or other hazards.

• Upon completion of any service or repairs to

your television, ask the service technician to

perform routine safety checks to determine

that your television is safe to operate.

Note to cable television system installer

This reminder is provided to call the cable

television system installer’s attention to Section

820 40 of the NEC which 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 cable entry as practical.

hills, or other objects. Changing the

direction or position of the antenna

may improve the reception.

Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
