Before Initial Setup

Protect Against Power Surges

¥Connect all components before you plug any 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 before you connect or disconnect any cables.

¥Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded. Refer to the Important Safety Instructions.

Safety Information

¥Protect components from overheating.

¥DonÕt block ventilation holes on any of the components. Arrange the components so that air can circulate freely.

¥DonÕt stack components.

¥If you place the component 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 wonÕt harm other components.

Avoid Audio Interference

¥Position cables properly; insert each cable firmly into the designated jack.

¥If you place components above the TV, route all cables down one 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.

¥Keep twin lead cables away from audio/video cables.

Avoid Direct Light

DonÕt place the TV where sunlight or room lighting is directed toward the screen. Use soft or indirect lighting.
