THIS SYMBOL INDICATES THAT
THERE ARE IMPORTANT OPERATING
AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
IN THE LITERATURE ACCOMPANYING
THE APPLIANCE.
AMEUBLES- Cet appareil ne doit
être placé que sur un meuble (avec
ou sans roulettes) recommandé par
le fabricant. Si vous l'installez sur
un meuble à roulettes, déplacez les
deux ensembles avec précaution.
Un arrêt brusque, l'utilisation
d'une force excessive et des sur-
faces irrégulières risquent de déstabiliser l'ensemble et
de le renverser.
9. Ventilation-Slots and openings in the cabinet and the
back or bottom are provided for ventilation and to
ensure reliable operation of the TV and to protect it
from overheating, these openings must not be blocked
or covered. The openings should never be blocked by
placing the TV on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar sur-
face. This TV should never be placed near or over a
radiator or heat register. This TV should not be placed
in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack
unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufac-
turer's instructions have been adhered to .
10. Power Sources-This TV should be operated only from
the type of power source indicated on the marking
label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to
your home, consult your appliance dealer or local
power company. For TVs intended to operate from bat-
tery power, or other sources, refer to the operating
instructions.
11. Grounding or Polarization-This TV is equipped with a
polarized alternating-current line plug(a plug having
one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into
the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature.
If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet,
try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit,
contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
12. Power-Cord Protection-Power-supply cords should be
routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or

particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
appliance.
13. Outdoor Antenna grounding-If an outside antenna or
cable system is connected to the TV, be sure the anten-
S3126A
na or cable system is grounded so as 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 proper grounding of the mast and supporting struc-
ture, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna dis-
charge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of
antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding elec-
trodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
(Fig. A)
14. Lightning-For added protection for this TV receiver
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 TV due to lightning
and power-line surges.
15. 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.
16. Overloading-Do not overload wall outlets and exten-
sion cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric
shock.
17. 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 a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of
any kind on the TV.
