Safety Instructions For Television Receivers
1.
Read and apply the operating instructions provided with your television receiver.
2.
Read all of the instructions given here and retain them for later use.
3.
Unplug this television receiver from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
4.
Do not use attachments not recommended by the television receiver manufacturer as they may cause hazards.
5.
Do not use this television receiver near water. For example: Avoid placing it near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc.
6.
Do not place this television receiver on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The television receiver may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the appliance. Use only with a cart or stand recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the television receiver. Wall or shelf mounting should follow the manufacturer's instructions, and should use a mounting kit approved by the manufacturer.
6A. 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.
7.
Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided for ventilation, and to insure reliable operation of the television receiver and to protect it from overheating.
These openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the television receiver on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface. This television receiver should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This television receiver should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase unless proper ventilation iS provided.
8.
Operate only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home consult your television dealer or local power company. For television receivers designed to operate from battery power, refer to the operating instructions.
9.
This television receiver is equipped with a polarized alternating-current 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.

POWER SERVICE GROUNDING
ELECTRODE SYSTEM
(NEC ART 250. PART H)
14. 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. In the U.S. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code and in Canada Part 1 of the Canadian Electrical Code provides information with respect 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.
See Figure.
15.. For added protection for this television receiver 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 receiver due to lightning and power-line surges.
16. 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.
17. Unplug this television receiver from the wall outlet, and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions: a.
When the power cordor plug is damaged or frayed.
b.
If liquid has been spilled into the television receiver.
c.
ff the television receiver has been exposed to rain or water.
d.
If the television receiver does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the television receiver to normal operation.
e.
If the television receiver has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
f.
When the television receiver exhibits a distinct change in performance - this indicates a need for service.
18. Do not attempt to service this television receiver yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
19. When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
20. Upon completion of any service or repairs to this television receiver, ask the service technician to perform routine safety checks to determine that the television is in safe operating condition.
21. WARNING: To prevent fire or shock hazard, do riot expose this appliance to rain or moisture.
22. CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT USE THIS (POLARIZED) PLUG WITH AN EXTENSION CORD,
RECEPTACLE OR OTHER OUTLET UNLESS THE BLADES CAN BE FULLY INSERTED TO PREVENT BLADE
EXPOSURE.
NOTE: This equipment is designed to operate in the U.S.A., Canada and other countries where the broadcasting system and
AC house current is exactly the same as in the U.S.A. and Canada.
Important Information Regarding Use of Video Games, Computers, Teletext or Other Fixed Image Displays.
The extended use of fixed image program material can cause a permanent "shadow image" on the picture tube. This background image is viewable on normal programs in the form of a stationary fixed image. This type of irreversible picture tube deterioration can be limited by observing the following steps:
A.
Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum viewing level.
B.
Do not display the fixed image for extended periods of time.
C.
Turn the power off when not in actual use.
NOTE: The marking or retained image on the picture tube resulting from fixed image use is not an operating defect and as such is not covered by Warranty. This product is not designed to display fixed image patterns for extended periods of time.

Installation
Location
Locate for comfortable viewing. Avoid placing where sunlight or other bright light (including reflections) will fall on the screen.
Adequate ventilation is essential to prevent internal component failure. Keep away from areas of excessive heat or moisture. Do not position magnetic equipment (motors, fans, other speakers, etc.) nearby.
Optional External Equipment Connections
"]heVideo/Audio connections between components can be made with shielded video and audio cables. For best performance, video cables should utilize 75 ohm coaxial shielded wire. Cables are available from your dealer or electronic supply house.
Before you purchase any cables, be sure you know what type of output and input connectors your various components require. Also determine the length of cable you'll need.
AC Power Supply Cord
Insert (Polarized) plug into 120 volts 60Hz standard AC outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT USE THIS (POLARIZED) PLUG
'WITH AN EXTENSION CORD, RECEPTACLE OR OTHER OUTLET UNLESS THE BLADE
CAN BE FULLY INSERTED TO PREVENT BLADE EXPOSURE.

Helpful Hints:
• Helpful information will display On Screen momentarily when Receiver is first turned on and when the channel is changed.
When using keyboard entry for channels 10, 11 and
12 in the CABLE mode there is a slight delay before channel change because of the capability of tuning cable channels 100 to 125.
If you do not receive channels above 13, confirm the type of signal at ANT Input (TV or Cable) and set the
TV or Cable Tuning Mode accordingly.
