Things to Consider Before You Connect

Protect Against Power Surges

•Connect all devices before you plug any of their 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 sheet packed with your TV.

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 the 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.
