Installing Your TV Set  
Where to install  
Place the TV on the floor or on a sturdy platform.  
WARNING : TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY  
Do not stand or climb on the TV.  
G
G
The mounting surface should be flat and steady.  
Do not put a VCR or any heavy object on top of  
the TV.  
Lighting  
Do not place the TV in a room where direct lighting  
CAUTION :  
strikes the screen. Use soft and indirect lighting.  
As a safety feature, the plug has one prong wider  
than the other. It will fit only one way into a standard  
electrical outlet. If the plug will not fit into the  
outlet, try turning it around. If the plug will not fit  
either way, the outlet is probably old and non-stand-  
ard.  
Air circulation  
Place the TV far enough from the walls to allow  
proper ventilation. This will prevent the TV from  
overheating and avoid possible damage to the TV.  
Avoid dusty places too.  
You will need to have a new outlet installed by an  
electrician.  
Power supply  
DO NOT CHANGE THE SAFETY FEATURE OF  
THE PLUG.  
Plug into an electrical outlet with standard household  
power (120 volt AC, 60Hz). Do not change the  
plugs safety prong. See the right column.

Cleaning and Care  
WARNING: TV sets use High Voltage. Do not try to remove the cabinet back. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.  
I To clean the TV screen:  
1. First remove the plug from the power outlet to avoid  
possible shock hazard.  
I To maintain the finish and appearance of the cabinet,  
polish it from time to time with a quality furniture  
polish.
