IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Grounding
y
y
(Except for devices which are not grounded.)
Ensure that you connect the earth ground wire to
prevent possible electric shock (i.e. a TV with a
three-prong grounded AC plug must be connected
to a three-prong grounded AC outlet). If grounding
methods are not possible, have a qualified
electrician install a separate circuit breaker. Do not
try to ground the unit by connecting it to telephone
wires, lightening rods, or gas pipes.

Do not attempt to modify this product in any way
y
y
without written authorization from LG Electronics.
Unauthorized modification could void the user's

Outdoor Antenna Grounding (Can differ by country):
y
y
If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the
precautions below. An outdoor antenna system
should not be located in the vicinity of overhead
power lines or other electric light or power circuits,
or where it can come in contact with such power
lines or circuits as death or serious injury can occur.
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 (NEC) in the U.S.A. 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.
