excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart
combination to overturn.
9. VENTILATION
PORTABLE CART WARNING
(symbol provided by RETAC)
$3126A
Slots and openings in the cabinet and in the back or bottom are provided for ventilation, and to ensure
reliable operation of the unit, and to protect it from overheating. These openings must not be blocked or
covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar
surface. This unit should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat source. This unit should not be
placed in a built-in installation such asabookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the
manufacturer's instructions have been adhered to.
10. POWER SOURCES
This unit should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the rating plate. Ifyou are not
sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company. For
units intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the respective pages on this Owner's
Manual for their operating instructions.
11. GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION
This unit is equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the
other). This plug witl 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. Instead of the polarized alternating-current line plug, your unit may be
equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type plug (a plug having a third (grounding) pin). This plug will only fit into
a grounding-type power outlet. This too, is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the
outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type 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.

17, OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the unit, be sure the antenna or cable system is
grounded so as to provide some protection against vottage surges and buitt-up static charges, Section 810
of the National Electrica( Code (NEC), ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with respect to proper grounding
of the mast and supporting structure, grounding Ofthe 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.
18, SERVICING
Do not attempt to service this unit yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous
voltage or other hazards. Refer air servicing to qualified service personnel
For example:
a. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the unit.
c. If the unit has been exposed to rain or water.

Most types of television interference can be remedied by adiusting the height and position of the VHF/UHF antenna.
Outdoor antennas are recommended for best results. The most common types of television interference are shown below.
If one of these symptoms appear when the unit is connected to a Cable TV system, the disturbance may be caused by the
Ioc_( Cab(e TV company broadcast.
GHOSTS
Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is the direct
path and the other is reflected by taU buildings, hills or other large objects.
Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve the recept)oe.
r
SNOW
[f the TV/VCR/DVD is located far from the TV station, in a fringe reception area
where the signal is weak, small dots may appear in the picture.
ff the signal is exlremely weak, the installation of a larger extema} antenna may
be necessary.
PICTURE SIZE VARIATION
Aslight picture size variation is normal when you adjust the CONTRAST or
BRIGHTNESS settings.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect the unit from the power source before cleaning.
