Things to Consider Before You Connect

]urn off the TVand/or component before you connect or disconnect any cables,

Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded, Refer to the Important Safety Instructions

circulate flee[y.

Don't stack components.

If you place components in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation,

flow around other components.

Position Cables Properly to Avoid Audio Interference

Insert each cable firmly into the designated jack,

If you place components above the TV, route all cables down the side of the back of the TV instead

of straight down the middle of the TV.

If your antenna uses 300-ohm twin lead cables, do not coil the cables, Also, keep the twin lead

cables away from audio/video cables.

Important Stand and Base Safety Information

strength to prevent the TVfrom being accidentafly tipped over, pushed off, or pulled off. This could

cause personal injury and/or damage the TV. Refer to the important Safety Instructions packed

separately.
