Important Safety Instructions 6501MA HDTV Monitor Owner's Manual
• Never expose the set to rain or water. If the TV becomes damp or wet, disconnect
the plug and have it inspected by a service technician before further use. Rain or
excessive moisture may cause electrical shorts which can result in fire, shock, or
death.
• TV sets are provided with ventilation openings in the cabinet to allow heat gener-
ated during the operation to be released. If these openings are blocked, heat build-
up within the TV can cause failures which may result in a fire hazard.
• Never cover the openings with cloth or other material.
• Never place the set near or over a radiator or heat register.
• Never place a set in a "built-in" enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
• Turn the TV off if it is necessary to leave the room for more than a short period of
time. Never leave a TV on when leaving the house.
• When leaving the home for extended periods of time, unplug the TV from the wall
outlet and disconnect the external antenna lead-in wires at the TV set. A fire hazard
could develop due to lightning storms and electrical power line surges.
Do not routinely unplug the TV from the wall outlet after each viewing session. This
practice can cause the stranded wires within the cord to break and pose a fire haz-
ard. Also, someone could be seriously shocked if the plug is carelessly removed or
inserted into the wall outlet.
• If your TV power cord has become worn for any other reason, have the cord
checked by a service technician for possible replacement.
