Refer to the Important Safeguards sheet packed with your TV.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.• When 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, route all cables down the side of the back of the TV instead of straight down the middleof the back of the TV.• 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 InformationChoose the location for your TV carefully.
