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
pinched
by
items placed
upon
or
against
them, paying
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-
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.

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

of
fire
or
electric
shock.
17.

spill
liquid
of
any
kind
on
the
