Vendfadon-Slots and openfags in the cabthet and the

back or bottom are provided for ventilation and to

ensure reliable operation of the "IV and to protect it ftx*m ov_be.ating, these openings must not be blocked

or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the "IV on a bed, sofa, rug. or other similar sur- face. This TV should never be placed near or over a

radiator or heat register. This "IV should not be placed in a hoiit-fa installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufac-

turer's instructions have been _ to.

l 1.Grounding or Polarization-'laais 'IV is equipped with a

polarized alternatfag-curtent line plug(a plug having one blade wider than the other). 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 should still fail to fit. contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet.

Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or

pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying

particular attention to carols at plugs, convenience

receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.

13. Outdoor Antenna grounding-If an outside antenna or

cable system is connected to the TV. be sure the anten-

na or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voitnge surges and built-up static

charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code,

AN SI/NFPA No. 70, provides information with respect

to proper grounding of the mast and supporting struc-

ture, grounding of the lead-fa wire to an antenna dis-

charge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of ant_nna<lischarge unit, connection to grounding elec-

trodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

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 or cable system.

This will prevent damage to the 'IV due to lightning

and power-line surges.

lg. Power Lines-An outside antenna system should not be

located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or oti_er

electric light of 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

Closed Caption Problem

My TV is showing captions that are misspelled.

My TV wdl not show the text in its entirety or there is a delay of what is being said.

My captions are scrambled with white boxes on the TV sci_en.

My program guide listed a TV show as being closed captioned but none of the captions were displayed.

Possible Remedy

You are watching a live broadcast and spelling errors made by the closed captioning production company may pass through uncorrected. A prerecorded program will not show any misspelled words because of the normal time available for editing the captions.

Captions that axe delayed a few seconds behind the actual dialogue are common for live broadcasts.

Most captioning production companies can display a dialogue to a maximum of 220 words per minute.

If a dialogue exceeds that rate, selective editing is used to insure that the captions remain upqo-date with the current TV screen dialogue.

Interference caused by building, power lines, thunderstorms, etc.

may cause scrambled or incomplete captions to appear.

Broadcasters may at times use a time compression process to the actual program so that additional advertising time can be given.

Since the decoder cannot read the compressed information, captions will be lost.

My prerecorded videotape does not show any captions. The tape box mentions iT being closed captioned.

My "IV screen shows a black box on certain channels.

The videotape was either an illegal copying or the tape duplicating company accidentally Eeft out the captioning signals during the copying process.
