16. Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be
serviced by qualified service personnel when:
A. The power supply cord or the plug has been
damaged; or
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the
appliance; or
C. The appliance has been exposed to rain; or
D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally
or exhibits a marked change in performance; or
E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure
damaged.
17. Tilt/Stability - All televisions must comply with
recommended international global safety standards for
tilt and stability properties of cabinet design.
• Do not compromise these design standards by
applying excessive pull force to the front, or top, of the
cabinet, which could ultimately overturn the product.
• Also, do not endanger yourself, or children, by placing
electronic equipment/toys on the top of the cabinet.
Such items could unsuspectingly fall from the top of the
set and cause product damage and/or personal injury.
18. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be
mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by
the manufacturer.
19. Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be located
away from power lines.
20. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside
antenna is connected to the receiver, be sure the anten-
na 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 information with respect to prop-
er grounding of the mast and supporting structure
grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge
unit, size of grounding connectors, location of antenna
discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and
requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure
below.
21. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so
that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into
the enclosure through openings.
22. Battery usage CAUTION - To prevent battery leak-
age that may result in bodily injury or damage to the
unit:
• Install all batteries correctly, with + and - aligned as
marked on the unit.
• Do not mix batteries (old and new or carbon and alka-
line, etc.).
• Remove batteries when the unit is not used for a long
time.
