Important Safety Information
Always be careful when using your LCD TV. To reduce the risk of re, electrical shock, and other injuries,
keep these safety precautions in mind when installing, using, and maintaining your machine.
● Read all safety and operating instructions before operating your LCD TV.
● Keep the safety and operating instructions for future reference.
● Heed all warnings on the LCD TV and in the operating instructions.
● Follow all operating and use instructions.
● Unplug the LCD TV from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a damp cloth; do not use liquid
or aerosol cleaners.
● Never add any attachments and/or equipment without approval of the manufacturer. Such
additions can increase the risk of re, electric shock, or other personal injury.
● Do not use the LCD TV where contact with or immersion in water is a possibility, such as near
bath tubs, sinks, washing machines, swimming pools, etc.
● Do not place the LCD TV on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket,
table, or oor where it can fall. A falling LCD TV can cause serious
injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the appliance. Use
only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the
manufacturer or sold with the LCD TV. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions when mounting the unit, and use a mounting accessory
recommended by the manufacturer. Move the LCD TV and cart with
care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces can make
the unit and cart unsteady and likely to overturn.
● Provide ventilation for the LCD TV. The unit is designed with slots in the cabinet for ventilation
to protect it from overheating. Do not block these openings with any object, and do not place
the LCD TV on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Do not place it near a radiator or heat
register. Do not place the LCD TV in a rack or bookcase.
Ensure that there is adequate ventilation and that you’ve followed the manufacturer’s
instructions for mounting.
● Operate your LCD TV only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If
you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your appliance dealer or
local power company.
● Use only a grounded or polarized outlet. For your safety, this LCD TV is equipped with a
polarized alternating current line plug having one blade wider than the other. This plug will t
into the power outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try
reversing the plug. If the plug still does not t, contact your electrician to replace your outlet.
● Protect the power cord. Power supply cords should be routed so that they won’t be walked on
or pinched by objects placed on or against them. Pay particular attention to cords at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the unit.

v
● Unplug the LCD TV from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system during a
lightning storm or when left unattended and unused for long periods of time. This will prevent
damage to the unit due to lightning and power-line surges.
● Avoid overhead power lines. An outside antenna system should not be placed in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits or where it can fall into such power
lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, be extremely careful to keep from
touching the power lines or circuits. Contact with such lines can be fatal.
● Do not overload the wall outlet or extension cords. Overloading can result in re or electric
shock.
● Do not insert anything through the openings in the unit, where they can touch dangerous voltage
points or damage parts. Never spill liquid of any kind on the LCD TV.
● Ground outdoor antennas. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the LCD TV, be
sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage
surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
No.70-1984, provides information about proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure,
grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,
location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the
grounding electrode.
● Do not attempt to service the LCD TV yourself. Refer all servicing to qualied service personnel.
Unplug the unit from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualied service personnel under the
following conditions:
- when the power-supply cord or plug is damaged
- if liquid has been spilled on the unit or if objects have fallen into the unit
- if the LCD TV has been exposed to rain or water
- if the LCD TV does not operate normally by following the operating instructions
- if the LCD TV has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged
- when the LCD TV exhibits a distinct change in performance
● If you make adjustments yourself, adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating
instructions. Adjusting other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work
by a qualied technician to restore the LCD TV to normal.
● When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts
specied by the manufacturer or those that have the same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in additional damage to the unit.
● Upon completion of any service or repairs to this LCD TV, ask the service technician to perform
safety checks to determine that the LCD TV is in a safe operating condition.
● The LCD TV can properly operate in a temperature range of 32~104°F(0~40°C) and 80%
humidity.
Do not use in a hot and humid place.
● Before moving the LCD TV equipped with speakers, separate the speakers from the LCD TV.
If you move the LCD TV with the speakers attached, it may result in damage or injury.
● If main plug is used as the disconnect device, the plug shall remain readily operable.
