• Outdoor Antenna Grounding -
If
an
outside antenna
is
connected to the television equipment, be sure the antenna
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 70,
provides information with regard 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.

may scratch the panel surface when wiped strongly.)
•
If
the panel
is
dusty, use
an
anti-static brush, which
is
commercially available, to clean
it.
• To protect the panel,
do
not use a dirty cloth, liquid cleaners or chemical cloth to clean
it,
such materials may damage
the panel surface.
• To clean the outer cabinet, use the same method. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
• Water and Moisture - Do not use this product 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.
• Stand - Do not place the product on
an
unstable cart, stand, tripod or table. Placing the product on
an
unstable base

stand, tripod, bracket
or
table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the product. When mounting the product
on a wall, be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions. Use only the mounting hardware recommended by the
manufacturer.
• Selecting the location - Select a place with no direct sunlight and good ventilation.
• Ventilation - The vents and other openings
in
the cabinet are designed for ventilation. Do not cover
or
block these vents
and openings since insufficient ventilation can cause overheating and/or shorten the life of the product. Do not place
the product on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface, since they can block ventilation openings. This product
is
not
designed for built-in installation;
do
not place the product
in
an
enclosed place such as a bookcase or rack, unless proper
ventilation
is
provided or the manufacturer's instructions are followed.
• The Liquid Crystal panel used
in
this product
is
made of glass. Therefore,
it
can break when the product
is
dropped or
applied with impact. Be careful not to be injured by broken glass pieces
in
case the panel breaks.
• Heat - The product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other
products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
• The Liquid Crystal panel
is
a very high technology product with 2,073,600 thin film transistors, giving you fine picture
details.
Occasionally, a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green or red. Please note that
this does not affect the performance of your product.
• Lightning - For added protection for this television equipment 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. This will prevent damage to
the equipment due to lightning and power-line surges.
• Power Lines -
An
outside antenna system should not be located
in
the vicinity of overhead power lines
or
other electric
light or 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.
• To prevent fire, never place any type of candle or flames on the top or near the TV set.
• To prevent fire
or
shock hazard,
do
not place the AC cord under the TV
set or other heavy items.
• Do not display a still picture for a long time, as this could cause
an
afterimage to remain.
• To prevent fire or shock hazard,
