6 Features

Lightning

For added protection for your TV’s receiver during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the power outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This helps prevent damage to your TV from lightning and power line surges.

Screen protection

Your TV’s screen is made of glass. Do not drop your TV or hit the glass screen. If the screen breaks, be careful of broken glass.

Pixel defect

Your TV’s screen is designed to display finely detailed pictures. Occasionally, a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as fixed points of blue, green, or red. This is not a defect and does not affect your TV’s performance.

Power lines

An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light of power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits.

When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

Temperature

Do not use in hot or cold locations. If you use your TV in a cold location, the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed. This is not a malfunction. Your TV will return to normal operation when the temperature returns to normal.

Do not leave your TV in a hot or cold location. Do not install your TV in a location that is exposed to direct sunlight or near a heater. The cabinet may warp and the screen may malfunction.

Storage temperature: 32°F to 122°F (0°C to 50°C)

Operating temperature: 41°F to 104°F (5°C to 40°C)

After Image

If you display a fixed image on the screen for an extended amount of time, a permanent after image may be burned into the screen. To avoid this type of damage:

•Reduce the brightness and contrast settings to a minimum viewing level.

•Do not display a fixed image for an extended period of time. Examples of fixed images include logos, video games, computer images, teletext, and images displayed in 4:3 mode. This type of damage is not covered by your warranty.

•Turn off your TV when it is not in use

Outdoor antenna grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to your TV, make sure that the antenna or cable system is grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70, provides information with respect to correct grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of the antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

Note to CATV system installer

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for correct grounding and in particular, specifies that the cable ground must be connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
