2 WARNING / CAUTION The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol\f within an equilateral trian- gle\f is intended to alert the user to the \bresence of uninsulated “dan - gerous voltage” within the \broduct’s enclo - sure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to \bersons. The exclamation \boint within an equi - lateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the \bresence of im\bortant o\ber - ating and maintenance (servicing) instruc - tions in the literature accom\banying the a\b\bliance. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL. WARNING/CAUTION TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE AND ELECTRIC SHOCK\f DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. NOTE TO CABLE/TV INSTALLER This reminder is \brovided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the National Electric Code (U.S.A.). The code \brovides guide - lines for \bro\ber grounding and\f in \barticular\f s\beci - fies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building\f as close to the \boint of the cable entry as \bractical. WARNING / CAUTION To \brevent fire or shock hazards\f do not ex\bose this \broduct to rain or moisture. FCC No\fice C\bass B digi\fa\b device This equi\bment has been tested and found to com\bly with the limits for a Class B digital device\f \bursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

3 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Read these instructions. Keep these instructions. Heed a\f\f warnings. Fo\f\fow a\f\f instructions. 1\bo not use this apparatus near water. 2C\fean on\fy with dry c\foth. 3\bo not b\fock any venti\fation openings. Insta\f\f in accordance with the manufacturer ’s instructions. 4\bo not insta\f\f near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appa- ratus (inc\fuding amp\fifiers) that produce heat. 5\bo not defeat the safety pur- pose of the po\farized or ground - ing-type p\fug. A po\farized p\fug has two b\fades with one wider than the other. A grounding type p\fug has two b\fades and a third grounding prong, The wide b\fade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided p\fug does not fit into your out\fet, consu\ft an e\fectri - cian for rep\facement of the obso\fete out\fet. 6Protect the power cord from being wa\fked on or pinched particu\far\fy at p\fugs, conve - nience receptac\fes, and the point where they exit from the apparatus. \fOn\fy use attachments/acces - sories specified by the manu- facturer. 8Use on\fy with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or tab\fe speci - fied by the manufacturer, or so\fd with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/appara - tus combination to avoid injury from tip-over. 9Unp\fug this apparatus during \fighting storms or when unused for \fong periods of time. 10 Refer a\f\f servicing to qua\fified service per - sonne\f. Servicing is required when the appa - ratus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supp\fy cord or p\fug is damaged, \fiquid has been spi\f\fed or objects have fa\f\fen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not oper - ate norma\f\fy, or has been dropped. 11Never touch this apparatus or antenna dur - ing a thunder or \fighting storm. 12When mounting a TV on the wa\f\f, make sure not to insta\f\f the TV by the hanging power and signa\f cab\fes on the back of the TV. 13\bo not a\f\fow an impact shock or any objects to fa\f\f into the product, and do not drop onto the screen with something. 14CAUTION concerning the Power Cord: It is recommend that app\fiances be p\faced upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a sing\fe out\fet circuit which powers on\fy that app\fi - ance and has no additiona\f out\fets or branch circuits. Check the specification page of this owner's manua\f to be certain. \bo n ot connect too many app\fiances to the same AC power out\fet as this cou\fd resu\ft in fire or e\fectric shock. \bo not over\foad wa\f\f out\fets. Over\foaded wa\f\f out\fets, \foose or damaged wa\f\f out\fets, extension cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire insu\fation are dangerous . Any of these conditions cou\fd resu\ft in e\fectric shock or fire. Periodica\f\fy examine the cord of your app\fiance, and if its appearance indicates damage or deteriora- tion, unp\fug it, discontinue use of the app\fi - ance, and have the cord rep\faced with an exact rep\facement part by an authorized servicer. Protect the power cord from phys - ica\f or mechanica\f abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, c\fosed in a door, or wa\fked upon. Pay particu\far attention to p\fugs, wa\f\f out\fets, and the point where the cord exits the app\fiance. \bo not make the TV with the power cord p\fugged in. \bo not use a damaged or \foose power cord. Be sure do grasp the p\fug when unp\fugging the power cord. \bo not pu\f\f on the power cord to unp\fug the TV.
