Preparing to set up your TV
Unpacking and setup
Your TV carton should contain:
•30" Wide Flat Digital TV
•User Guide
•Remote control unit
If you need to replace these accessories, call our help line mentioned in the Warranty section of this guide.
Depending on your antenna system, you may need different types of combiners (mixers) or separators (splitters). Contact your local electronics store for these items.
Carefully remove all the components from the carton and verify that you have all the necessary components before you dispose of the carton.
•Remove all packing materials from the individual components.
•Do not remove any labels or stickers on the back panel of your TV.
•Place your TV in the location you want. Your TV is designed to be used on a level, stable, flat surface, such as a table, desk, shelf, or stand convenient to a power outlet, out of direct sunlight, and away from sources of excess heat, dust, moisture, or vibration.
•Unwind the AC power cord on the back of your TV and extend the cord to its full length.
Power source
Use the polarized AC line cord provided for operation on AC power. Insert the AC cord plug into a standard 120 V 60 Hz polarized AC outlet.
If you cause a static discharge when touching your TV and your TV fails to function, unplug your TV from the AC outlet and plug it back in. Your TV should return to normal operation.
Warning | • The system uses a polarized AC plug with |
| one wide blade and one narrow blade. The |
| plug will only fit into matching polarized |
| power outlets. This is a safety feature to |
| reduce the possibility of electric shock. If |
| the plug will not fit in your power outlets, |
| you probably have outdated, |
| |
| changed by a qualified, licensed |
| electrician. Do not file the wide blade on |
| the plug or use an adapter to make the |
| plug fit into your outlet. This defeats the |
| safety feature and could expose you to |
| electric shock. |
| • Never connect the AC cord plug to other |
| than the specified voltage (120 V 60 Hz). |
| Use the attached power cord only. |
