– Never place the set in a confined space, such as a bookcase, or
built-in cabinet, unless proper ventilation is provided.
– Do not place the set near or over a radiator or heat register, or
where it is exposed to direct sunlight.
ANTENNAS
Outdoor Antenna Grounding – If an outdoor antenna or
cable system is installed, follow the precautions below.
An outdoor antenna system should not be located in the
vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or
power circuits, or where it can come in contact with
such power lines or circuits.
WHEN INSTALLING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA
SYSTEM, EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO
KEEP FROM CONTACTING SUCH POWER LINES
OR CIRCUITS AS CONTACT WITH THEM IS
ALMOST INVARIABLY FATAL.
Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide
some protection against voltage surges and built-up
static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical
Code provides information with respect to proper
grounding of the mast and supporting structure,
grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge
unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-
discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.
Lightning
For added protection for this set 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 set due to lightning and
power-line surges.

– If liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the set.
– If the set has been exposed to rain or water.
– If the set has been subject to excessive shock by being dropped,
or the cabinet has been damaged.
– If the set does not operate normally when following the
Instruction Manual. Adjust only those controls that are specified
in the Instruction Manual. Improper adjustment of other
controls may result in damage and will often require extensive
work by a qualified technician to restore the set to normal
operation.
– When the set exhibits a distinct change in performance – this
indicates a need for service.
Servicing
Do not attempt to service the set yourself as opening or removing
covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Replacement parts
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service
technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufac-
turer that have the same characteristics as the original parts.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or
other hazards.
Safety Check
Upon completion of any service or repairs to the set, ask the
service technician to perform routine safety checks (as specified
by the manufacturer) to determine that the set is in safe operating
condition.
