FCC Regulations state that unauthorized changes or modifications to this equipment may void the user’s authority to
operate it.
Important: This television is a table model and is designed to sit on a firm, flat, surface. Don't place the TV on soft
carpeting or similar surface because the ventilation slots on the bottom of the unit will be blocked resulting in reduced
lifetime from overheating. To assure adequate ventilation for this product, maintain a spacing of 4 inches from the top
and sides of the TV receiver and 2 inches from the rear of the TV receiver and other surfaces.
Also, make sure the stand or base you use is of adequate size and strength to prevent the TV from being accidentally
tipped over, pushed off, or pulled off. This could cause personal injury and/or damage the TV. Refer to the Important
Safety Instructions on the next page.
The TV is unstable if it is not properly attached to the
base or mounted to the wall. Please follow the base
or wall mounting instructions provided in the User’s
Guide to ensure your safety.
WARNING
Caution: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover (or back). No user serviceable parts
inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

exposure, abnormal operation, or if the apparatus has been dropped.
15. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is
grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984 (Section 54 of Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1) provides infor-
mation 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 following example.

Things to Consider Before You Connect
Protect Against Power Surges
•Connect all devices before you plug any power cords into the wall outlet or power strip.
NEVER plug your TV into an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch.
•Turn off the TV and/or device(s) before you connect or disconnect any cables.
•Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded. Refer to the Important Safety
Instructions.
Instructions at the beginning of the User's Guide
•Protect devices from overheating.
•Don’t block ventilation holes on any of the devices. Arrange the devices so that air can
circulate freely.
•Don’t stack devices.
•If you place devices in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation.
•If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf so the heated air
from it won’t flow around other devices.
Position Cables Properly to Avoid Audio Interference
•Insert each cable firmly into the designated jack.
•If you place devices above the TV, route all cables down one side of the back of the TV
instead of straight down the middle.
•If your antenna uses 300-ohm twin lead cables, do not coil the cables. Also, keep the twin
lead cables away from audio/video cables.
Use Indirect Light
Don’t place the TV where sunlight or room lighting will be directed toward the screen. Use soft
or indirect lighting.
Check Supplied Parts
Check that the following parts were packed with your product.
Note: If you need
to replace your remote,
call 1-800-338-0376.
A shipping and
handling fee, and the
appropriate sales
tax, will be charged
upon ordering.
Have your Visa,
MasterCard, or Discover
Card ready.
