FCC Information

Class 1 Laser Product

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for 

a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These 

limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful 

interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses 

and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in 

accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to 

radio Communications. However, there is no Guarantee that 

interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment 

does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which 

can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is 

encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the 

following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.

- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from 

  that to which the receiver is connected.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Device complies with FDA radiation performance standards, 21 CFR 

subchapter.

Caution: (Invisible) Laser Radiation when open. Do not stare into beam.

The exclamation point within an 

equilateral triangle is intended to

alert the user to the presence of

important operating and maintenance

(servicing) instructions in the literature

accompanying the TV.

1.   Read these instructions.

2.   Keep these instructions.

3.   Heed all warnings.

4.   Follow all instructions.

5.   Do not use this apparatus near water. For example, do not use 

      near a laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, 

      and the like. 

6.   Clean only with dry cloth. 

7.   Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the 

      manufacturer’s instructions. Slots and openings in the cabinet back 

      or bottom are provided for ventilation, 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. 

8.   Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat 

      registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that 

      produce heat.

9.   Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type 

      plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. 

      A grounding-type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. 

      The wide blade or the third prong is provided for your safety. If the 

      provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for 

      replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched 

      particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where 

      they exit from the apparatus.

11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

12. Use only with cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the 

      manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a 

      cart is used, use caution when moving the 

      cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from 

      tip-over. A TV and cart combination should be 

      moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, 

      and uneven surfaces may cause the TV and cart 

      combination to overturn.

13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for 

      long periods of time. For added protection for this TV receiver 

      during a lightning storm, or when it is left unused for long periods 

      of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect antenna or 

      cable system. This will prevent damage to the TV due to lightning 

      and power line surges.

14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is 

      required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such 

      as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled 

      or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the appratus has been 

      exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has 

      been dropped.

15. This TV should be operated only from the type of power supply 

      indicated on the rating label. If customer is not sure the type of 

      power supply in your home, consult your appliance dealer or local 

      power company. For TV remote control battery power, refer to the 

      operating instructions.

16. The TV set shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing. No 

      objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the TV 

      set. 

17. Never push objects of any kind into this TV through openings as 

      they may touch dangerous voltage or other electrical parts that 

      could result in fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind 

      into the TV.

18. Unplug the TV from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use 

      liquid or aero cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

19. This TV should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat 

      resource. This TV should not be placed in a built-in installation such 

      as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the 

      manufacturer's instructions have been adhered to.

20. Do not place this TV on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or 

      table. The TV may fall, causing serious injury to someone, and 

      serious damage to the appliance.

21. Do not attempt to service this TV by yourself because opening or 

      removing covers may expose you to dangerous high voltage or 

      other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

22. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is 

      subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not 

      cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any 

      interference received, including interference that may cause 

      undesired operation.

23. WARNING: To prevent injury, this apparatus must be securely 

      attached to the floor/wall in accordance with the installation 

      instructions.

24. To reduce the risk of electric shock, the grounding of center pin of 

      plug must be maintained.

25. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TV, be 

      sure the antenna or cable system is grounded to provide some  

      protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. 

      Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA NO.70, 

      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 electrodes. (See figure A)
