IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (Continued) ■ If an outside antenna is connected to the television equipment, 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.

This will prevent damage to the equipment due to lightning and power-line surges. ■ Power Lines - An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal. ■ To prevent fire, never place any type of candle or flames on the top or near the TV set. ■ To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this product to dripping or splashing. No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, should be placed on the product. ■ To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place the AC cord under the TV set or other heavy items. ■ Do not display a still picture for a long time, as this could cause an afterimage to remain. 4

If an outside antenna is connected to the television equipment, 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.
■
Power Lines – An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall
into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system,
extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits
as contact with them might be fatal.
