Failure to follow warnings can result in personal injury or damage to product. Keep this User's Manual in a convenient location for future reference. Proper Positioning of Television Always handle your LCD television with care. The product can be heavy and bulky, requiring the assistance of a second person to move. Avoid touching the LCD screen. Skin oils are difficult to remove. Always position your LCD television on a stable and level surface. Unstable surfaces can cause your LCD to topple and fall, resulting in possible damage or injury. Avoid exposing the LCD display to direct sunlight or high temperatures, which can damage or shorten its useful life. Do not place near heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, or other appliances that generate heat. Avoid exposing the LCD display to rain, water, moisture or high humidity. Do not place your LCD near basins or sinks where it may come in contact with water. Orient your LCD display away from direct sunlight to reduce glare. Never place heavy or sharp objects on the LCD display, video cable, or power cord. Overloading Outlets Do not overload electrical power sources when installing television. Overloading wall outlets, circuits, or extension cords can result in overheating, fire, or electric shock. Use only grounded or polarized outlets. Power Cord Protection Minimize wear on power supply cords. Power supply cords should be routed away from foot traffic and contact with other objects. Do not route power cord under rugs or carpeting. The cord should never be severely bent, pinched, or twisted. Periodically inspect power cords for wear or damage, particularly near plug and the point where it exits from the product. Unplug cord and discontinue use if damage is discovered. Ventilation Slots and openings on the cabinet are provided for ventilation purposes. To ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. Keep LCD a minimum of four (4) inches away from any wall to assure sufficient airflow and ventilation. Increased temperatures may cause fire or device failure. 2 To assure proper ventilation, do not block the openings by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface. Do not place the product in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or an enclosed rack, unless proper ventilation is provided. Other Notices and Precautions Caution: Never remove the rear cover. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Your LCD display contains high-voltage parts. You may be seriously injured if you touch them. Do not attempt repairs yourself.

Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANS/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. Lightning For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges. Do not disconnect the antenna or the power cord during a heavy storm ­ lightning may strike while you are holding the cable cord, causing serious injury. Turn off your LCD display and wait for the weather to improve. Power Lines An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power 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 may be fatal.
