PRESENT WITHIN THIS UNIT.
THIS SYMBOL INDICATES THAT
THERE ARE IMPORTANT OPERAT-
ING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUC-
TIONS IN THE LITERATURE
ACCOMPANYING THE APPLIANCE.
AMEUBLES- Cet appareil ne doit être placé que sur
un meuble (avec ou sans roulettes) recommandé par le
fabricant. Si vous l'installez sur
un meuble à roulettes, déplacez
les deux ensembles avec précau-
tion. Un arrêt brusque, l'utilisa-
tion d'une force excessive et des
surfaces irrégulières risquent de
déstabiliser l'ensemble et de le
renverser.
9. Ventilation-Slots and openings in the cabinet and the
back or bottom are provided for ventilation and to
ensure reliable operation of the TV and to protect it
from overheating, these openings must not be blocked
or covered. The openings should never be blocked by
placing the TV on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar
surface. This TV should never be placed near or over a
radiator or heat register. This TV should not be placed
in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack
unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufac-
turer's instructions have been adhered to .
10. Power Sources-This TV should be operated only from
the type of power source indicated on the marking
label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply
to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local
power company. For TVs intended to operate from
battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating
instructions.
11. Grounding or Polarization-This TV is equipped with a
polarized alternating-current line plug(a plug having
one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into
the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature.
If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the out-
let, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail
to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete
outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polar-
ized plug.

12. Power-Cord Protection-Power-supply cords should be
routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or
pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying
SYMBOLE D'AVERTISSEMENT POUR
particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience
LES COMPOSANTES
APPAREIL ET MEUBLE A ROULETTES
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
appliance.
13. Outdoor Antenna grounding-If an outside antenna or
cable system is connected to the TV, be sure the anten-
na or cable system is grounded so as to provide some
protection against voltage surges and built-up static
S3126A
charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA No. 70, provides information with respect
to proper grounding of the mast and supporting struc-
ture, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna dis-
charge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of
antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding elec-
trodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
(Fig. A)
14. Lightning-For added protection for this TV receiver
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 TV due to
lightning and power-line surges.
15. Power Lines-An outside antenna system should not be
located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other
electric light of power circuits, or where it can fall into
such power lines or circuits. When installing an out-
side antenna system, extreme care should be taken to
keep from touching such power lines or circuits as
contact with them might be fatal.
16. Overloading-Do not overload wall outlets and exten-
sion cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric
shock.
17. Object and Liquid Entry-Never push objects of any
kind into this TV through openings as they may touch
dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could
result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of
any kind on the TV.

cian to restore the TV to its normal operation.
e. If the TV has been dropped or damaged in any way.
f. When the TV exhibits a distinct change in perfor-
mance-this indicates a need for service.
20. Replacement Parts-When replacement parts are
