Don t allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television sets. Don t place fl at panel displays on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers. Remember that children can become excited while watching a program, especially on a larger than life fl at panel display. Care should be taken to place or install the display where it cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down. Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the fl at panel display so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children. WALL MOUNTING: IF YOU DECIDE TO WALL MOUNT YOUR FLAT PANEL DISPLAY, ALWAYS: Use a mount that has been recommended by the display manufacturer and/or listed by an independent laboratory (such as UL, CSA, ETL).

12 IMPORTANT: Please read this owners manual before starting or operating the equipment. Unpacking After unpacking the SkuVue Outdoor TV, please make sure that the following items are included in the carton and that they are in good condition. If items are damaged or missing, contact your dealer immediately. Model NXG-3250-DS Front View Model NXG-3250-DS Back View TV Installation MODEL: NXG-4250 Owner s Manual Weatherproof Televisions Choose a Location for the TV Owner s Manual Remote Control Important: The TV must be installed at least 5 feet from pool, spa, or other body of water. The TV should be installed so the screen is not facing direct sunlight, or can be easily turned away from direct sunlight. Ideal placement is in an area where the TV is shaded by trees, landscape and/or structures, or under a patio cover or gazebo. Remember that the position of the sun changes during the day, as seen in the drawing on the right. This means that the quality of the picture will change during the day. If you intend to install the TV in areas where direct sunlight will reach it, it s best to position the TV for optimum performance during the time of day when you do most of your TV watching. If the sun shines directly on the screen for long periods of time, dark areas may develop on the screen. This is a normal reaction for the LED panel, and will not cause damage to the screen. Either turn the screen away from the sun, or apply shade to the TV, and the dark areas will quickly disappear.
