INSTALLATION
CONSlDERATIONS
Before you install your TV...
Ventilation -- Proper ventilation keeps your "IV
running 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.
A_
Power Source w Your "IV is designed to operate
on normal household current, 120 volt 60 Hertz AC.
Do not attempt to operate it on I)(2 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 m 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-
tial electrical shock or fire hazards. It 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 and using your TV.
VIDEO GAMES AND OTHER FIXED
PATTERN DISPLAY CAUTION -- If you use your TV for
video games or other fixed displays, avoid setting the
BRIGHTNESS control for an excessively bright picture. A
fixed display is any image which does not change frequently,
such as a channel/network identification or other symbol that
remains in the same location for long periods of time. A
bright, fixed pattern, if left on for 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 sustained fixed pattern use, and by
turning off the fixed pattern display when not in use.
PLUGGING IN YOUR TV m Be sure to plug your TV into
an "unswitched"
AC power source. The "switched"
AC out-
lets found on some video equipment will not continue supply-
ing power to the TV 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.
