Pay particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience recepta-cles, and the point where they exit from the unit.•Unplug the PDP from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system during a lightning stormor when left unattended and unused for long periods of time. This will prevent damage to the unit due tolightning and power-line surges.•Avoid overhead power lines. An outside antenna system should not be placed in the vicinity of overheadpower 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, be extremely careful to keep from touching the power linesor circuits. Contact with such lines can be fatal.•Do not overload the wall outlet or extension cords. Overloading can result in fire or electric shock.•Do not insert anything through the openings in the unit, where they can touch dangerous voltage pointsor damage parts. Never spill liquid of any kind on the PDP.•Ground outdoor antennas. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the PDP, be sure theantenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No.70-1984, provides infor-mation about proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to anantenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection togrounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.•Do not attempt to service the PDP yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Unplug theunit from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:-when the power-supply cord or plug is damaged-if liquid has been spilled on the unit or if objects have fallen into the unit-if the PDP has been exposed to rain or water-if the PDP does not operate normally by following the operating instructions-if the PDP has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged-when the PDP exhibits a distinct change in performance•If you make adjustments yourself, adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instruc-tions. Adjusting other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualifiedtechnician to restore the PDP to normal.•When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts specified bythe manufacturer or those that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitu-tions may result in additional damage to the unit.•Upon completion of any service or repairs to this PDP, ask the service technician to perform safety checksto determine that the PDP is in a safe operating condition.•The PDP can properly operate in a temperature range of 32~104°F(0~40°C) and 80% humidity.
