should be retained for future reference.
3o HEED WARNINGS - All warnings on the appliance and in the
operating instructions should be adhered to.
4o FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS - All operating and use instructions
should be followed.
5o CLEANING - UnplugTV from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do
not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for
cleaning.
EXCEPTION: A product that is meant for uninterrupted
service and,
that for some specific reason, such as the possibility of the loss
of an authorization
code for a CATV converter, is not intended to
be unplugged by the user for cleaning or any other purpose, may
exclude the reference to unplugging the appliance in the cleaning
description otherwise required in item S.
6o ATTACHMENTS - Do not use attachments not recommended by
the TV manufacturer as they may cause hazards.
7o WATER AND MOISTURE - Do not use this TV near water, for
example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub,
in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like.
So ACCESSORIES - Do not place this TV on
an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket,
or table. The TV may fall, causing serious
injury to someone, and serious damage to
the appliance. Use only with a cart, stand,
tripod, bracket, or table recommended
by the
manufacturer, or sold with the TV.
Any mounting of the appliance should follow
the manufacturer's
instructions and should
use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.
An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care.
Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the
appliance and cart combination
to overturn.
AMEUBLES - Cet appareil ne dolt _tre plac_
que sur un meuble (avec ou sans roulettes)
recommand_ par le fabricant. Si vous I'
installez sur un meuble _ roulettes, d_placez
les deux ensembles avec precaution. Un arr_t
brusque, l'utilisation d'une force excessive
et des surfaces irr_gulieres risquent de
d_stabiliser l'ensemble et de le renverser.
9o VENTILATION - Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back
or bottom are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable
operation of the TV and to protect it from overheating, these
openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should
never be blocked by placing the TV on a bed, sofa, rug, or other
similar surface. This TV should never be placed near or over a
radiator or heat register. This TV should not be placed in a built-in
installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is
provided or the manufacturer's
instructions have been adhered to.
leo POWER SOURCES - Th is TV shou Id be operated on ly from the type
of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure
of the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance
dealer or local power company. For TVs intended to operate from
battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

11 °GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION -This TV is equipped with a
polarized alternating-current
line plug (a plug having one blade
wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only
one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug
fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still
fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
12_ POWER-CORD PROTECTION - Power-supply cords should be
routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by
items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to
cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they
exit from the appliance.
13_OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING - If an outside antenna or
cable system is connected to the TV, 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 No. 70, provides information
with respect 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. (Fig. A)

(NEC ART 2s0,

PART H)

14o LIGHTNING - For added protection for thisTV receiver 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 theTV due
to lightning and power-line surges.
15_ POWER LINES - An outside antenna system should not be located
in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light of
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.
I & OVERLOADING - Do not overload wall outlets and extension
cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

'_7o OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY - Never push objects of any kind into
this TV through openings as 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 theTV.
'_8_ SERVICING - Do not attempt to service this TV yourself as opening
or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
'_9o DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE - Unplug this TV from the wall
outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the
following conditions:
a. When the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the TV.
c. If the TV has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If theTV does not operate normally by following the operating
instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the
operating instructions, as improper adjustment of other controls
may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a
qualified technician to restore the TV to its normal operation.
e. If the TV has been dropped or damaged in any way.
f. When theTVexhibits
a distinct change in performance, this
indicates a need for service.

20° REPLACEMENT PARTS - When replacement parts are required, be
sure 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,
injury to persons or other hazards.
21o SAFETY CHECK - Upon completion of any service or repairs to this
TV, ask the service technician to perform routine safety checks to
determine that the TV is in proper operating condition.
22° HEAT-This TV product should be situated away from heat sources
such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.
23° WALL OR CEILING MOUNTING - This TV product should be
mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the
