INSTALLATION
CONSIDERATIONS
Before you install your TV...
Ventilation -- Proper ventilation keeps your TV
running cool. Air circulates through perfora-
tions in the back and bottom of the cabinet. Do
not block these vents or you will shorten the life
of your TV.
Power Source--
Your TV is designed to operate
on normal household current, 120 volt 60 Hertz
AC. It has also been designed
to operate
on
12-Volt DC Negative Ground current.
AC Power Cord -- (Zenith Part No. 11-364) has
a 5-pin connector at one end which plugs into
the TV. The other end of the power cord has a polarized
plug as required
by Underwriters' Laboratories. It has one
regular blade and one wide blade and fits onlyone wayinto a
standard electrical outlet. If the blades will not enter either
way, your outlet is very old and non-standard. A newoutlet
should be installed bya qualified electrician. Always
plug the 5-pin connector into the receptacle
on
the back of the TV before plugging the polari-
zed plug into the power outlet.
The DC Power Cord -- (Zenith Part No. 11-
369) has a 5-pin connector
on one end which plugs into the
receptacle on the back of the TV. The other end has a
round cigarette lighter type plug which is inserted into your
vehicle's cigarette lighter. Before using the DC cord make
certain that your system is 12-Volt NEGATIVE GROUND.
Never plug it into a POSITIVE GROUND
system; your set
will not operate and can be damaged as a result. Always
plug the 5-pin connector into the receptacle
on
_k
he back of the TV, before plugging the cigaret-
te lighter connector
into the cigarette lighter soc-
ket.
Safe Operation
-- Your TV is manufactured
and tested with your safety in mind. However, unusual
stress caused by dropping or mishandling, exposure to
flood, fire, rain or moisture, or accidental spilling of liquids
into the TV, can result in potential electrical shock or fire
hazards. If this happens, have your TV checked by a service
technician before using it again.
Please read and observe each safety point in the "Safety
Tips" folder when installing and using your TV.
VIDEO GAMES AND OTHER FIXED
PA'ITERN DISPLAY CAUTION -- If you use your TV for
video games, teletext or other fixed displays, avoid setting
the BRIGHTNESS control for an excessively bright picture.
A bright, fixed pattern, if used for long periods of time, can
result in a permanent imprint on the TV picture tube. You
can reduce this possibility by alternating the use of the fixed
pattern display with normal TV picture viewing, by turning
down the CONTRAST control for sustained fixed pattern
use, and by turning offthe fixed pattern display when not in
use.
PLUGGING IN YOUR TV-- Wherever possible plug your
TV into an "unswitched"
power source. If the power to the
TV is interrupted,
you will have to reset the clock in the TV
to the current time.
