CONSIDERATIONS
Before you install your TV...
Ventilation -- Proper ventilation keeps your TV
cunning cool. Air circulates through perforations
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.
,
Do not attempt to operate it on DC current.
Power
Cord -- Your power cord has a polarized
plug as required
by Underwriters'
Laboratories.
It
,has one regular blade and one wide blade and fits
only one way into a standard
electrical
outlet. If
the blades will not enter either way, your outlet is
very old and non-standard.
A new outlet should be
installed
by a qualified
electrician.
Safe Operation
-- Your TV is manufactured
and
tested with your safety in mind. However,
unusual
stress caused by dropping
or mishandling,
expo-
sure to flood, fire, rain or moisture,
or accidental
spilling of liquids into the TV, can result in poten-
tia! electrical
shock or fire hazards.
If this hap-
pens, have your TV checked
by a service
technician
before using it again.
Please read and observe each safety point in the "Safety
Tips" section when installing :andusing your TV.
VIDEO GAMES AND OTHER FIXED
PATTERN DISPLAY CAUTION -- If you use your TV for
video games or other fixed displays, avoid setting tlhe
BRIGHTNESS control for an excessively bright picture. A
fixed display is any image wLich does not charLgefrequently,
such as a channel/nelwork identification or other symbol that
remains in the same location for long periods of time. A
bright, fixed pattern, if left on fcr long periods of time, can re-
sult in a permanent imprint on the TV picture tube. You can re-
duce this possibility by alternating the use of the fixed pattern
display with normal TV picture viewing, by turning down the
CONTRAST control for sustain_
fixed pattern use, and by
turning off the fixed patterndisplay when not in use.
PLUGGING IN YOUR TV -- Be sure to plug your TV into
an "unswitched"
AC power ,;ource. The "switched"
AC out-
lets found on some video equipment will not continue supply-
ing power to the "IN once the equipment is turned off. If the
power to the TV is interrupted, you will have to reset the clock
in the TV to the current time.
