To ensure reliable operation of the appliance and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be covered with a cloth or other material, and the bottom openings should not be blocked by placing the unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This appliance should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This appliance should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase unless proper ventilation is provided. 3. Do not expose the appliance to rain or use near water . . . for example, near a bathtub, swimming pool, kitchen sink, in a wet basement, etc. Cleaning 7.

Never spill liquid of any kind on the product. Hooking Up Outdoor Antenna LIGHTNING PROTECTION FOR YOUR ANTENNA AND SET AS PER NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE INSTRUCTIONS. 4. If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 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 electrode. EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING ACCORDING TO NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE, ANSI/NFPA 70 ANTENNA LEAD IN WIRE GROUND CLAMP ELECTRIC SERVICE EQUIPMENT GROUND CLAMPS POWER SERVICE GROUNDING ELECTRODE SYSTEM (NEC ART 250, PART H) ANTENNA DISCHARGE UNIT (NEC SECTION 810-20) GROUNDING CONDUCTORS (NEC SECTION 810-21) Positioning the TV Do not position the TV in a confined area. Allow space for normal air circulation around electronic parts. Child Safety Sanyo is committed to making home entertainment safe and enjoyable. Always use an appropriate table or stand when positioning your TV. Use appropriate brackets, braces, or straps to anchor your furniture in place. But never screw anything directly to the television. Do not place televisions on dressers, shelves, desks, carts, etc., where curious or excited children could pull, push, or otherwise cause the unit to fall and cause personal injury. Never place toys or other items on top of the TV that could pique children's curiosity causing them to climb about the furniture. Always use stands that are designed to support the size and combined weight of your television and other electronic devices. NEC - NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE "Note to CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical." 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. Plug in the power cord 5. This product 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 product dealer or local power company. This product 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 outlet, 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 this polarized plug. Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock. 6. 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 particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.
