of some types of fluorescent lighting may reduce remote control transmitter range.
Adequate ventilation is essential to prevent internal component failure. Keep away from excessive heat or moisture. To
ensure optimum color purity do not position magnetic equipment (motors, fans, external speakers) nearby.
Optional External Equipment Connections
The Audio/Video connections between components can be made with shielded video and audio cables. For best
performance, video cables should utilize 75 ohm coaxial shielded wire. Cables are available from your dealer or electronic
supply house.
Before you purchase any cables, be sure you know what type of output and input connectors your various components
require. Also determine the length of cable you’ll need.
AC Power Supply Cord
CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT OF
AC OUTLET AND FULLY INSERT. DO NOT USE A PLUG WITH A RECEPTACLE OR OTHER
