1.1.2.
All ICs and many other semiconductors are susceptible to electrostatic discharges
(ESD). Careless handling during repair can reduce life drastically. When repairing,
make sure that you are connected with the same potential as the mass of the set by a
wristband with resistance. Keep components and tools also at this same potential.
1. Never replace modules or other components while the unit is switched on.
2. When making settings, use plastic rather than metal tools. This will prevent
any short circuits and the danger of a circuit becoming unstable.
1.1.3
To prevent electrical shock, do not use this polarized ac plug with an extension cord,
receptacle, or the outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade
exposure.
To prevent electrical shock, match wide blade or plug to wide slot, fully insert.
1.1.4
When replacement parts are required, be sure to use replacement parts specified by
the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
1.1.5
Safety regulations require that after a repair the set must be returned in its original
condition. In particular attention should be paid to the following points.

1.2 NOTES
Notes on Safe Handling of the LCD panel and during service
The work procedures shown with the Note indication are important for ensuring the
safety of the product and the servicing work. Be sure to follow these instructions.
• Before starting the work, secure a sufficient working space.
• At all times other than when adjusting and checking the product, be sure to turn
OFF the POWER Button and disconnect the power cable from the power source of
the TV during servicing.
• To prevent electric shock and breakage of PC board, start the servicing work at least
30 seconds after the main power has been turned off. Especially when installing and

- 8 -

Hisense Confidential
removing the power board, start servicing at least 2 minutes after the main power has
been turned off.
• While the main power is on, do not touch any parts or circuits other than the ones
specified. If any connection other than the one specified is made between the
measuring equipment and the high voltage power supply block, it can result in
electric shock or activation of the leakage-detection circuit breaker.
• When installing the LCD module in, and removing it from the packing carton, be
sure to have at least two persons perform the work.
• When the surface of the panel comes into contact with the cushioning materials, be
sure to confirm that there is no foreign matter on top of the cushioning materials
before the surface of the panel comes into contact with the cushioning materials.
Failure to observe this precaution may result in, the surface of the panel being
scratched by foreign matter.
• When handling the circuit board, be sure to remove static electricity from your body
before handling the circuit board.
• Be sure to handle the circuit board by holding the large parts as the heat sink or
transformer. Failure to observe this precaution may result in the occurrence of an
abnormality in the soldered areas.
• Do not stack the circuit boards. Failure to observe this precaution may result in
problems resulting from scratches on the parts, the deformation of parts, and
short-circuits due to residual electric charge.

• Routing of the wires and fixing them in position must be done in accordance with
the original routing and fixing configuration when servicing is completed. All the
wires are routed far away from the areas that become hot (such as the heat sink).
These wires are fixed in position with the wire clamps so that the wires do not move,
thereby ensuring that they are not damaged and their materials do not deteriorate over
long periods of time. Therefore, route the cables and fix the cables to the original
position and states using the wire clamps.
• Perform a safety check when servicing is completed. Verify that the peripherals of
the serviced points have not undergone any deterioration during servicing. Also
verify that the screws, parts and cables removed for servicing purposes have all been
returned to their proper locations in accordance with the original setup.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
dangerous voltage within the products enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude
to constitute a risk of electric shock.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to
alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance
(servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the set.
