Los televisores y las videograbadoras utilizan energía cuando están encendidos ó apagados.Los norteamericanos   gastan más de 1 billón de dólares al año en la energía que consumen televisores y videograbadoras cuando no   ® se encuentran en uso. Los nuevos modelos ENERGY STAR reducen esa “fuga” de energía hasta en un 75   por ciento. Esto implica más de 500 millones de dólares al año en ahorro de energía para los consumidores.   El ahorro de energía ayuda a reducir el consumo de combustibles fósiles y por tanto la contaminación por   dióxido de carbono que contribuye al calentamiento global. Si cada familia norteamericana sustituyera sus   ® televisores y videograbadoras por modelos ENERGY STAR , se reducirían las emisiones de dióxido de carbono   en cinco millones de toneladas cada año (equivalente a eliminar la contaminación procedente de más de un   millón de automóviles).   ® El uso de productos ENERGY STAR permite reducir el monto de las facturas de energía eléctrica y consumir   menos energía. De este modo ahorrará dinero y ayudará a proteger el medio ambiente.   PARA REDUCIR EL RIESGO DE INCENDIO O DESCARGA   ELÉCTRICA, NO EXPONGA ESTE APARATO A LA HUMEDAD.   ADVERTENCIA :   El relámpago con cabeza de   flecha dentro de un triángulo trata   de indicar al usuario que las partes   dentro del producto representan   riesgo de electrochoque para las   personas.   PRECAUCIÓN : PARA REDUCIR EL RIESGO DE   El signo de exclamación dentro de   DESCARGAS ELÉCTRICAS, NO RETIRE LA CUBIERTA   un triángulo trata de indicar al   (NI EL PANEL POSTERIOR).   usuario que las instrucciones   importantes de operación y   servicio se encuentran en los   documentos con el aparato.   NO CONTIENE PIEZAS REPARABLES POR EL USUARIO.   SOLICITE ASISTENCIA TÉCNICA A PERSONAL DE   SERVICIO TÉCNICO ESPECIALIZADO.   “Nota para el instalador del sistema de TV por cable: Esta nota tiene el propósito de llamar la atención del   instalador del sistema de cable acerca del Artículo 820-40 del Código Eléctrico Nacional, que contiene las   directrices para la puesta a tierra y, en particular, especifica que el cable de puesta a tierra debe estar   conectado al sistema de puesta a tierra del edificio lo más cerca a la entrada del cable.”   48   27C530(48-50)   48   12/21/02, 3:43 PM   Dimension: 140mm x 215mm   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

Este aparato ha sido diseñado y fabricado para   garantizar su seguridad física. Sin embargo, UNA UTILIZACIÓN INAPROPIADA PODRÍA SER LA CAUSA DE   DESCARGAS ELÉCTRICAS O INCENDIOS. Para mantener el buen funcionamiento de este equipo y evitar   problemas, siga las normas básicas indicadas a continuación cuando lo instale, utilice o repare.   1.   2.   3.   4.   Desenchufe el televisor del tomacorriente antes de limpiarlo.   No utilice líquidos ni aerosoles de limpieza. Para limpiar el televisor utilice un paño húmedo.   No utilice accesorios que no los recomiende el fabricante del televisor porque podrían causar peligros.   No utilice el televisor cerca del agua – por ejemplo, cerca de una bañera, lavado, fregadero o lavadora, en   un sótano húmedo, cerca de una piscina, etc.   5.   No utilice este televisor sobre un carrito, un soporte o una mesa inestables. El televisor podría caerse   causando serías heridas a niños o adultos, y, por supuesto, el aparato se estropearía. Ponga el televisor   solamente sobre un carrito o soporte recomendado por el fabricante, o vendido junto con   el televisor.   6.   La combinación de carrito y televisor debe moverse con mucho cuidado. Las paradas   rápidas, la fuerza excesiva y las superficies irregulares pueden ser la causa de que la   combinación de televisor y carrito se volteen.   7.   8.   Cuando instale el televisor en una pared o en una estantería siga las instrucciones del   fabricante, y utilice el kit de montaje aprobado por el fabricante.   Las ranuras y aberturas de la caja y del panel posterior o inferior sirven para la ventilación del aparato, para   que éste funcione bien y para evitar que se caliente.Estas aberturas no deben taparse nunca.Este televisor   no debe colocarse en un lugar cerrado (como un estante para libros) si éste no dispone de la ventilación   apropiada.   9.   Las aberturas no deben taparse nunca con un paño u otro material; y las aberturas del panel inferior no   deben taparse tampoco colocando el televisor sobre una cama, sofá, alfombra u otra superficie similar.   Este televisor no debe ponerse nunca cerca o encima de un radiador u otro aparato que produzca calor.   10. Este televisor sólo debe funcionar con la fuente de corriente indicada en la etiqueta del fabricante. Si no   está seguro acerca del tipo de corriente de su hogar, póngase en contacto con el concesionario de quien   adquirió el televisor o con la compañía eléctrica local.   En el caso de equipos de televisión diseñados para funcionar con baterías, consulte las instrucciones de   uso.   11. Como medida de seguridad, el equipo de televisión está equipado con un enchufe polarizado de dos hilos.   El enchufe polarizado de dos hilos solamente calza de una sola manera en el tomacorriente.   Si el enchufe no entra en el tomacorriente, pídale a un electrícista que le coloque un tomacorriente nuevo.   No modifique el enchufe porque anulará esta característica de seguridad.   12. No permita que se apoye nada sobre el cable de alimentación. No ponga este televisor donde el cable   pueda ser deformado por personas que caminen sobre él.   49   27C530(48-50)   49   12/21/02, 3:43 PM   Dimension: 140mm x 215mm   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

Les Américains dépensent   plus d’1 milliard de dollars par an en énergie consommée par les téléviseurs et les magnétoscopes une fois éteints. Les   ® nouveaux modèles ENERGY STAR réduisent jusqu’à 75 % ce gaspillage d’énergie. Ce qui représente finalement   plus de 500 millions de dollars par an d’économie d’énergie pour les consommateurs.   Ces économies aident à réduire la combustion des énergies fossiles et la pollution au gaz carbonique associée, qui   contribue au réchauffement de la planète. Si toutes les familles américaines remplaçaient leurs téléviseurs et leurs   ® magnétoscopes par des modèles ENERGY STAR , les émissions de gaz carbonique seraient réduites de cinq millions   de tonnes par an — ce qui reviendrait à éliminer la pollution émise par plus d’un million de voitures.   ® En utilisant les produits ENERGY STAR , vous économiserez également de l’argent sur vos factures d’électricité et   vous utiliserez moins d’énergie. Un peu de bon sens économique au profit de notre environnement !   POUR REDUIRE LE RISQUE D’INCENDIE OU D’ELECTROCUTION,   N’EXPOSEZ PAS CET EQUIPEMENT A DES ENDROITS TRES HUMIDES.   AVERTISSEMENT:   Le symbole de la foudre sous   forme de flèche dans un triangle   est supposé indiquer   à l’utilisateur que les pièces   internes au produit constituent   un risque d’électrocution.   ATTENTION : POUR REDUIRE LE RISQUE   D’ELECTROCUTION,   NE RETIREZ PAS LE CAPOT (OU LE PANNEAU ARRIERE).   L’APPAREIL NE CONTIENT AUCUNE PIECE A ENTRETENIR   PAR L’UTILISATEUR.   Le symbole du point d’exclamation   dans un triangle est supposé   indiquer à l’utilisateur que des   instructions de fonctionnement et   de maintenance importantes se   trouvent dans la documentation   fournie avec l’équipement.   CONSULTEZ UN PERSONNEL QUALIFIE POUR   LA MAINTENANCE.   “Note à l’intention de l’installateur du système CATV :Ce rappel est fourni afin d’attirer l’attention de l’installateur   de système CATV sur l’article 820-40 du National Electrical Code qui indique les règles de mise à la terre   appropriée et, en particulier, spécifie que la ligne de terre doit être connectée au réseau commun de mise à   la terre du bâtiment, au point le plus proche possible de la source.”   53   27C530(53-55)   53   12/21/02, 3:43 PM   Dimension: 140mm x 215mm   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

Pour toute   information sur la mise au rebut ou le recyclage, contactez les autorités locales ou les précautions importantes   ATTENTION: Ne placez pas le cordon d’alimentation sous le téléviseur ou sous tout autre objet lourd.   PRÉCAUTIONS IMPORTANTES   ATTENTION :Veuillez lire toutes ces instructions avant d’utiliser votre télévision et conservez-   les pour un usage ultérieur.   L’énergie électrique peut exécuter de nombreuses fonctions utiles. Cet appareil a été conçu et fabriqué de façon   à garantir votre entière sécurité. CEPENDANT, TOUTE UTILISATION INADEQUATE PEUT ENTRAINER DES   RISQUES D’ELECTROCUTION OU D’INCENDIE.Afin de ne pas détruire les protections intégrées à cet appareil,   respectez les règles de base suivantes pour son installation, son utilisation et sa maintenance.   1.   2.   3.   4.   Débranchez la télévision avant de la nettoyer.   N’utilisez pas de nettoyants liquides ou d’aérosols et utilisez un chiffon humide.   N’utilisez pas d’accessoires déconseillés par le fabricant de matériel vidéo, car ils impliquent des risques.   N’utilisez pas cette télévision à proximité d’eau — par exemple, près d’une baignoire, d’un lavabo, d’un   évier ou d’un bac à laver, dans une cave humide ou près d’une piscine, etc.   5.   Ne placez pas cet équipement sur un chariot, un support ou une table instable. La télévision peut tomber   et provoquer de graves lésions à toute personne et causer de sérieux dommages à l’équipement. Utilisez   uniquement un support ou un chariot recommandé par le fabricant ou vendu avec la   télévision.   6.   7.   8.   L’ensemble télévision-chariot doit être déplacé délicatement. Les arrêts brusques, une   force excessive et des surfaces inégales peuvent renverser l’ensemble.   L’installation au mur ou sur une tablette doit être réalisée conformément aux instructions   du fabricant et à l’aide d’un kit de montage approuvé par ce dernier.   Les fentes et les ouvertures du châssis à l’arrière ou dans la partie inférieure sont prévus pour la ventilation.   Pour garantir un fonctionnement fiable de la télévision et pour la protéger de toute surchauffe, ces ouvertures   ne doivent être ni obturées, ni recouvertes. La télévision ne doit pas être placée dans un endroit encastré   tel qu’une bibliothèque, sauf si une ventilation adéquate est prévue.   9.   Les ouvertures ne doivent jamais être recouvertes par un chiffon ou autre et celles de la partie inférieure   ne doivent jamais être obturées si vous placez la télévision sur un lit, un sofa, un tapis ou toute surface   similaire. Cette télévision ne doit être placée ni à proximité d’un radiateur ou d’un registre de chaleur, ni   dessus.   10. Cette télévision doit être alimentée uniquement par le type d’alimentation électrique indiqué sur l’étiquette.   Si vous n’êtes pas sûr du type d’alimentation de votre domicile, consultez votre revendeur de télévision   ou la compagnie d’électricité locale (EDF en France).   Pour la télévision conçue pour fonctionner sur batterie, reportez-vous au mode d’emploi.   11. Du point de vue de la sécurité, la télévision est équipée d’une fiche polarisée à 2 fils (une lame plus   importante que l’autre). La fiche polarisée à 2 fils ne pénètre dans la prise électrique que dans un seul   sens.   Si la fiche ne correspond pas à la prise, demandez à votre électricien de remplacer la prise, elle doit être   obsolète. Ne modifiez pas la fiche et ne désactivez pas cette fonction de sécurité.   12. Ne posez rien sur le cordon d’alimentation. Ne placez pas la télévision dans un emplacement où le   cordon d’alimentation est susceptible d’être endommagé par le passage répété de personnes.   54   27C530(53-55)   54   12/21/02, 3:43 PM   Dimension: 140mm x 215mm   Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.   PRÉCAUTIONS IMPORTANTES (Suite)   13. Respectez tous les avertissements et instructions mentionnés sur la télévision.   14. Si une antenne extérieure est raccordée à la télévision, veillez à ce que le système d’antenne soit relié à   la terre de façon à fournir une protection vis-à-vis des poussées de tension et des charges électrostatiques   accumulées. La section 810 du National Electrical Code fournit des informations relatives à une mise à la   terre correcte de la potence et de la structure portante, à une mise à la terre du fil d’entrée à une unité de   décharge d’antenne, aux dimensions des conducteurs de terre, à l’emplacement de l’unité de décharge   d’antenne, au raccordement des prises de terre ainsi qu’à leurs exigences.   EXEMPLE DE MISE À LA TERRE D’UNE ANTENNE   SELON LE CODE NATIONAL DE L’ÉLECTRICITÉ   DESCENTE   D’ANTENNE   COLLIER DE MISE   À LA TERRE   UNITÉ DE DÉCHARGE   D’ANTENNE   BOÎTIER DE   (NEC SECTION 810-20)   LA COMPAGNIE   D’ÉLECTRICITÉ   CONDUCTEURS DE TERRE   (NEC SECTION 810-21)   COLLIERS DE MISE À LA TERRE   ÉLECTRODE DE TERRE DE   LA COMPAGNIE D’ÉLECTRICITÉ   (NEC ART. 250, PARTIE H)   NEC – CODE NATIONAL DE L’ÉLECTRICITÉ   15. Pour tout ajout de protection à votre télévision en cas de foudre ou lorsque elle reste en veille et inutilisée   pendant de longues périodes, débranchez-la et déconnectez l’antenne.Vous éviterez ainsi des dommages   à votre équipement suite à la foudre et des poussées de tension.   16. Un système d’antenne extérieure ne doit pas être situé à proximité de lignes aériennes ou d’autres   groupes électrogènes ou circuits électriques ou dans des emplacements où l’antenne pourrait tomber sur   ce type de lignes ou circuits. Lors de l’installation d’un système d’antenne extérieure, faites extrêmement   attention à ne pas entrer en contact avec ces lignes ou circuits, car cela pourrait vous être fatal.   17. Ne surchargez pas les prises et les prolongateurs de ligne afin d’éviter tout risque d’incendie ou   d’électrocution.   18. N’introduisez jamais d’objets à travers les fentes du châssis, car ils pourraient entrer en contact avec des   points de tension dangereux ou des pièces court-circuitées et provoquer ainsi un incendie ou une   électrocution. Ne répandez jamais de liquides sur la télévision.   19. N’essayez pas de réparer vous-même votre télévision. L’ouverture ou le retrait des capots peut vous   exposer à une tension dangereuse ou à d’autres risques. Confiez toutes les opérations de maintenance   à un personnel qualifié.   20. Lorsque vous êtes confronté aux situations suivantes, débranchez la télévision et confiez toutes les   opérations de maintenance à un personnel qualifié :   A. lorsque le cordon d’alimentation ou la fiche est endommagé ou effiloché ;   B. si du liquide a été répandu sur/dans la télévision ;   C. si la télévision a été exposée à la pluie ou à l’eau ;   D. si la télévision ne fonctionne pas normalement même en respectant le mode d’emploi. Réglez   uniquement les commandes abordées par le mode d’emploi. Des réglages inappropriés d’autres   commandes peuvent occasionner des dommages et nécessiteront ensuite, dans la plupart des cas,   une intervention plus importante d’un technicien qualifié pour que la télévision fonctionne   normalement ;   E. si la télévision a été renversée ou que le châssis est endommagé ;   F. lorsque la télévision présente une altération visible des performances — cela indique un besoin de   maintenance.   21. Pour toute maintenance ou réparation de la télévision, demandez au technicien de réaliser des contrôles   de sécurité classiques afin de déterminer si la télévision est en bon état de marche.   22. Lorsqu’un remplacement de pièces se révèle nécessaire, veillez à ce que le technicien utilise des pièces   de rechange spécifiées par le fabricant et qu’elles aient les mêmes caractéristiques que la pièce d’origine.   Des remplacements non autorisés peuvent occasionner un incendie, une électrocution ou d’autres risques.   55   27C530(53-55)   55   12/21/02, 3:43 PM   Dimension: 140mm x 215mm   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.
