Things to Consider Before You Connect
Protect Against Power Surges
• Connect all components before you plug any of their power cords into the wall outlet.
• Turn off the TV/DVD and/or component before you connect or disconnect any cables.
• Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded. Refer to the Important Safety
Instructions on page 1.
Protect Components from Overheating
• Don’t block ventilation holes on any of the components. Arrange the components so that air
can circulate freely.
• Don’t stack components.
• If you place components in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation.
• If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf so the heated air from it
won’t 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/DVD, route all cables down the side of the back of the
TV/DVD instead of straight down the middle of the TV/DVD.
• 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
Choose the location for your TV/DVD carefully. Place the TV/DVD on a stand or base that is of
adequate size and strength to prevent the TV/DVD from being accidentally tipped over, pushed
off, or pulled off. This could cause personal injury and/or damage the TV/DVD. Refer to the
Important Safety Instructions on page 1.
Use Indirect Light
Don’t place the TV/DVD where sunlight or room lighting will be directed toward the screen. Use
soft or indirect lighting.
