Important Safety Instructions
•
•
Your DTV is designed and manufactured to operate within defined design
limits. Misuse may result in electric shock or fire. To prevent your TV from being
damaged, the following instructions should be observed for the installation,
use, and maintenance of your TV. Read the following safety instructions before
operating your TV. Keep these instructions in a safe place for future reference.
When moving your TV from an area of low temperature to an area of
high temperature, condensation may form in the housing. Wait before
turning on your TV to avoid causing fire, electric shock, or component
damage.
•
•
A distance of at least three feet should be maintained between your TV
and any heat source, such as a radiator, heater, oven, amplifier etc. Do
not install your TV close to smoke. Operating your TV close to smoke
or moisture may cause fire or electric shock.
•
To reduce the risk of electric shock or component damage, switch off
the power before connecting other components to your TV.
•
•

Read these instructions.
Keep these instructions.
Heed all warnings.
Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are provided
for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of your TV and to protect it
from overheating, be sure these openings are not blocked or covered.
Do not place your TV in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper ventilation
is provided.
Follow all instructions.
Do not use this apparatus near water.
Clean only with a dry cloth.
•
Never push any object into the slots and openings on your TV cabinet.
Do not place any objects on the top of your TV. Doing so could short
circuit parts causing a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquids on your

Your TV should be operated only from the type of power source
indicated on the label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied
to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type
plug. A polarized plug has two blades and a third grounding prong.
The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the
provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for
replacement of the obsolete outlet.
Do not apply pressure or throw objects at your TV. This may
compromise the integrity of the display. The manufacturer’s warranty
does not cover user abuse or improper installations.

The power cord must be replaced when using different voltage than the
voltage specified. For more information, contact your dealer.
•
Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
apparatus.
Your TV is equipped with a three-pronged grounded plug (a plug with
a third grounding pin). This plug will fit only into a grounded power
outlet. This is a safety feature. If your outlet does not accommodate the
three-pronged, have an electrician install the correct outlet, or use an
adapter to ground your TV safely. Do not defeat the safety purpose of
the grounded plug.
•
•
Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
ꢀ

Television Antenna Connection Protection
DTV Transition Advisory
If an outside antenna/satellite dish or cable system is to be connected to the TV,
make sure that the antenna or cable system is electrically grounded to provide
some protection against voltage surges and static charges.
The nationwide switch to digital television broadcasting was complete on June
12, 2009. Analog-only television sets that receive TV programming through an
antenna now need a converter box to continue to receive over-the-air TV. Watch
your local stations to find out when they will turn off their analog signal and switch
to digital-only broadcasting. Analog-only TVs should continue to work as before
to receive low power, Class A or translator television stations and with cable and
satellite TV services, gaming consoles, VCRs, DVD players, and similar products.
Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPSA 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 the grounding conductors,
location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements of the grounding electrode.
For additional information, please contact the parties listed below, as appropriate:
Lightning Protection
FCC (US Federal Communications Commission)
For added protection of the TV during a lightning storm or when it is left
unattended or unused for long periods of time, unplug the TV from the wall outlet
and disconnect the antenna or cable system.

Do not locate the antenna near overhead light or power circuits, or where it could
fall into such power lines or circuits. Remember, the screen of the coaxial cable is
intended to be connected to earth in the building installation.
