General Safety Instructions (Cont.)
Electrical safety and cord handling
Before installing this TV set, make sure your outlet voltage corresponds to
the voltage stated on the appliance rating label.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this appliance to
rain or moisture; do not use it anywhere near water; do not touch the power
plug with wet hands.
Do not use a damaged power cord, plug or loose outlet. Doing so may
cause an electric shock.
Do not plug several devices into the same outlet. Doing so may cause the
outlet to overheat and start a fire.
Insert the power plug fully into the outlet. A loose or improperly inserted
power plug may cause a fire.
Do not bend, twist or kink the power cord excessively. Do not allow
anything to rest on or roll over the power cord and antenna cable. Doing so
may cause a fire or an electric shock.
Do not run the power cord near heat-producing appliances such as
radiators, stoves or irons. The excessive heat could melt the insulation and
expose live wires, resulting in fire or electric shock.
Always grasp the plug when disconnecting the power cord. Pulling the cord
can damage the internal wire and may cause a fire.
Unplug this TV during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of
time. Not doing so may result in fire or electric shock.
Usage conditions and restrictions
Follow the instructions in this manual when installing and adjusting the TV
set. Only adjust those controls that are covered in this instruction manual,
as improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage. If this
happens, unplug the TV set and have it serviced by appropriately qualified
personnel, or phone the after sales support line for advice.
Do not cover the ventilation openings with items such as newspapers,
tablecloths, curtains etc. as this could impede ventilation.
Do not insert objects of any kind into this unit through the cabinet slots, as
they could touch the current-carrying parts or short-circuit parts, resulting
in fire, electric shock or damage to the unit.
If you notice any unusual odours or smoke around the unit, immediately
disconnect the unit from the outlet and contact the service centre. Failure to
do so may result in fire or electric shock.
