Power Sources
This set should be operated only
from the type of power source
indicated on the serial/model
plate. If you are not sure of the type
of electrical power supplied to your
home, consult your dealer or local
power company. For those sets
designed to operate from battery
power, refer to the operating instructions.
Grounding or Polarization
This set is equipped with a polarized AC power cord plug
(a plug having one blade wider than the other), or with a
three-wire grounding type plug (a plug having a third pin
for grounding).
Refer to the following instructions:
For the set with a polarized AC power cord plug
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 still fails to fit, contact
your electrician to have a suitable outlet installed. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by forcing it in.
Alternate Warning
For the set with a three-wire grounding type AC plug
This plug will only fit into a
grounding-type power outlet.
This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug into the
outlet, contact your electrician to
have a suitable outlet installed.
Do not defeat the safety purpose
of the grounding plug.
Overloading
Do not
overload wall
outlets,
extension
cords or
convenience
receptacles
beyond their
capacity, since this can result in fire or electric shock.
Always turn the set off when it is not to be used. When the
set is left unattended and unused for long periods of time,
unplug it from the wall outlet as a precaution against the
possibility of an internal malfunction that could create a fire
hazard.
Do not disconnect the antenna or the power cord during a
heavy storm. Lightning may strike while you are holding
the cable or cord, causing serious injury. Turn off your TV
and wait for the weather to improve.
Object and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind into the set
through the cabinet slots 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 the set.
Attachments
Do not use attachments not
recommended by the manufacturer, as
they may cause hazards.
Do not place any objects, especially
heavy objects, on top of the set. The
object may fall from the set, causing
injury.
Cleaning
Unplug the set from the wall outlet
before cleaning or polishing it. Do not
use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
Use a cloth lightly dampened with
water for cleaning the exterior of the set.
If a snapping or popping sound from a
TV set is continuous or frequent while the TV
is operating, unplug the TV and consult your
dealer or service technician. It is normal for
some TV sets to make occasional snapping or
popping sounds, particularly when being
turned on or off.
Installation
Always use two or more people to lift or move the set. The
set is heavy and the bottom surface is flat. Serious injury can
result from trying to move the set by yourself alone, or from
unsteady handling.
Install the set on a stable, level surface.
Water and Moisture
Do not use power-
line operated sets
near water — for
example, near a
bathtub, washbowl,
kitchen sink, or
laundry tub, in a wet
basement, or near a
swimming pool, etc.
Accessories
Do not place the set on an unstable cart, stand, tripod,
bracket, table, or shelf. The set may fall, causing serious
injury to a child or an adult, and serious damage to the set.
Use only a cart or stand recommended by the manufacturer
for the specific model of TV. Any mounting of the product
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.
