TYPICAL CUTAWAY REAR VIEW
CAUTION 
Do not remove or install any connector when power is turned on. Installation under power will 
damage the circuit boards or ROM’s and void the warranty.
WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE. 
Video Game Machine (VGM) monitors 
generate and store potentially lethal high voltages. 
Avoid touching any part of the monitor until power has been off for some time. A picture tube 
can maintain a hazardous charge for up to several days. Only qualified technicians should 
service monitors. Turn off the power, unplug the VGM and discharge the CRT before 
attempting service. Even properly discharged tubes can revert to a highly charged state, 
without reapplication of power.
WARNING 
In normal operation, the monitor doesn’t require isolation from AC line voltage. During bench 
servicing, you may need to operate the monitor outside the cabinet. If you do, isolate the 
monitor from line voltage with an isolation transformer.
CAUTION 
Do not operate the monitor without its Remote Adjustment Board.
WARNING: HANDLE FLUORESCENT TUBE AND CRT WITH CARE. 
If you drop a fluorescent tube or CRT and it breaks, it will implode! Shattered glass can fly 
eight feet or more from the implosion.

awareness), immediately consult your physician before using any video games
.
We recommend that parents observe their children while they play video games. If you or your child experience the fol-
lowing symptoms: dizziness, altered vision, eye or muscle twitching, involuntary movements, loss of awareness, disori-
entation, or convulsions, discontinue use immediately and consult your physician.
