IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not expose to dripping or splashing and do
y
not place objects filled with liquids, such as
vases, cups, etc. on or over the apparatus (e.g. on
shelves above the unit).
Grounding
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.
Short-circuit
As long as this unit is connected to the AC wall
y
outlet, it is not disconnected from the AC power
source even if the unit is turned off.
Do not attempt to modify this product in any way
y
without written authorization from LG Electronics.
Unauthorized modification could void the user's
authority to operate this product.
Outdoor Antenna Grounding
y
(Can differ by country):
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 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.
