things to consider before connecting
devices

protect devices from power surges

■
Connect all devices before plugging any power cords
into the wall outlet
■
Always turn off the TV and other devices before you
connect or disconnect any cables
position cables to avoid audio hum
or interference
■
Insert all cable plugs firmly into their jacks
■
Place any audio/video (A/V) cables to the side(s) of the
TV's back panel instead of straight down the back after
connecting devices
■
Try not to coil any twin-lead antenna cables and keep
them away from all A/V cables as much as possible
■
Make sure all antennas and cables are properly
grounded

protect devices from overheating

■
Never block ventilation slots in any device
■
Arrange the devices so that air can circulate freely
■
Do not stack devices
■
Allow adequate ventilation when placing devices
in a stand
■
Place an amplifier or other hot devices on the top
shelf of a stand so heated air rising from it will not flow
around other devices
