12. Power Lines

An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or
power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, ex-
treme care should be taken from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

13. Overloading

Do not overload wall outlets and extension leads as this can result in a risk of fireor electric shock.

14. Object and Liquid Entry

Never push objects of any kind into this TV through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage
points or short-out parts that could result in fireor elec tric shock.Never spill liquid of any kind on or into the TV.

15. Outdoor Antenna Grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the
TV, 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 Electric Code,
ANSI /NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information 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.

16. Servicing

Do not attempt to service this TV yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or
other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualifiedservice personnel.

17. Damage Requiring Service

Unplug the TV from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualifiedservice personnel under the following conditions:
(a) When the power-supply lead or plug is damaged.
(b) If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the TV.
(c) If the TV has been exposed to rain or water.
(d) If the TV does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will
often require extensive work by a qualifiedtechnician to restore the TV to its normal operation.
(e) If the TV has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
(f) When the TV exhibits a distinct change in performance - this indicates a need for service.

18. Replacement Parts

When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specifiedby the
manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire,
electric shock or other hazards.

19. Safety Check

Upon completion of any service or repair to the TV, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine
that the TV is in a safe operational condition.

20. Heat

The product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves,
or other products (including amplifiers)that produce heat.

21. Disconnection

Please place the TV set in such a way that the main plug can be easily disconnected.
