charges.

4. Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be

followed.

5. Water and Moisture - The appliance should not be used near water

18. Servicing - The user should not attempt to service the appliance

beyond that described in the operating instructions. All other servic-

ing should be referred to qualified service personnel.

8. Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or

position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example,

the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar

surface that may block the ventilation openings; or, placed in a built-

in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the

flow of air through the ventilation openings.

9. Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources

such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (includ-

ing amplifiers) that produce heat.

Note to the CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the

CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that pro-

vides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the

cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building,

as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

10. Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to a power sup-

ply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as

marked on the appliance.

UNDERSTANDING THE SMARTLOCK™ CONTROL

he SmartLock feature is an inte-

Tgrated circuit that receives and

processes data sent by broadcast-

ers, or other program providers,

that contain program content advi-

sories. When programmed by the

viewer, a TV with SmartLock can

respond to the content advisories

and block program content that may

be found objectionable (such as

offensive language, violence, sexual

situations, etc.). This is a great fea-

ture to censor the type of viewing

children may watch.

lease make these simple

Pchecks before calling for ser-

vice. These tips can save you time

and money since charges for TV

installation and adjustment of

customer controls are not cov-

ered under your warranty.

CAUTION: A video source (such as a video game, Compact Disc Interactive - CDI, or

TV information channel) which shows a constant non-moving pattern on the TV screen,

can cause picture tube damage. When your TV is continuously used with such a source

the pattern of the non-moving portion of the game (CDI, etc.) could leave an image

permanently on the picture tube. When not in use, turn the video source OFF.

Regularly alternate the use of such video sources with normal TV viewing.

Cleaning and Care

• To avoid possible shock hazard be sure the TV is unplugged from the electrical outlet before cleaning.

• When cleaning the TV screen take care not to scratch or damage the screen surface (avoid wearing jewelry or using

anything abrasive). Wipe the front screen with a clean cloth dampened with water. Use even, easy, vertical strokes when

cleaning.

• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or sponge dampened in a solution of cool clear water. Use a clean

dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.

• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring

of the cabinet finish.
