23. Whenever the PC ready color television set is
damaged or fails, or if there is a distinct change in
performance that indicates a need for service, unplug
the set and have it checked by a professional service
technician.

particularly when being turned on or off. If the snapping
or popping is continuous or frequent, unplug the set and
consult your dealer or service technician.
25. Do not use attachments not recommended by the PC
ready color television set manufacturer as they may
cause hazards.
26. When replacement parts are required, be sure the
service technician has used replacement parts specified

result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
FOR SERVICING AND MODIFICATION
27. Upon completion of any service or repairs to the PC
ready color television set, ask the service technician to
perform routine safety checks to determine that the PC
ready color television is in safe operating condition.
16-1. If an outside antenna is connected to the PC ready color television set, be
sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection
against voltage surges and built up static charges, Section 810 of the
National Electrical Code, NFPA No. 70-1975, 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
electrode, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
17. An outside antenna system should not be located in the
vicinity of overhead power lines or other electrical lights
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.
18. For added protection for the PC ready color television
set 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. This will
prevent damage due to lightning and power-line surges.
