In order not to defeat the safeguards incorporated in this equipment, observe the following basic rules for its installation, use and servicing.

1.Unplug this television equipment from the wall outlet before cleaning.

2.Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

3.Do not use attachments not recommended by the television equipment manufacturer as they may cause hazards.

4.Do not use this television equipment near water — for example, near a bath tub, washbowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc.

5.Do not place this equipment on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The television equipment may fall, causing serious injury to a child or an adult, and serious damage to the equipment. Use only with a cart or stand recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the television equipment.

6.Television equipment and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the equipment and cart combination to

overturn.

7. Wall or shelf mounting should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a mounting kit approved by the manufacturer.

8.Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided for ventilation. To

insure reliable operation of the television equipment and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. This television equipment should not be placed in a built-in insulation such as a bookcase unless proper ventilation is provided.
