Things to Consider Before Connecting Components
Protect Components From Power Surges
• Connect all components before plugging any power cords into the wall outlet.
• Always turn off the TV and other components before you connect or disconnect any cables.
Position Cables to Avoid Audio Hum or Interference
• Insert all cable plugs firmly into their jacks.
• Place any Audio/Video (A/V) cables to the side(s) of the TV’s back panel instead of straight down the back after
connecting components.
• Try not to coil any twin-lead cables and keep them away from all A/V cables as much as possible.
• Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded. Refer to the Safety Tips sheet packed with your unit for
detailed information.
Protect Components From Overheating
• Never block ventilation slots in any component. Arrange the components so that air can circulate freely.
• Do not stack components.
• Allow adequate ventilation when placing components in a stand.
• Place an amplifier or satellite receiver on the top shelf of a stand so heated air rising from it will not flow around
other components.
