ENGLISH
•Grounding
(Except for devices which are not grounded.)
Ensure that you connect the earth ground wire
to prevent possible electric shock (i.e., a TV
with a three-prong grounded AC plug must
be connected to a three-prong grounded AC
outlet). If grounding methods are not possible,
have a qualied electrician install a separate
circuit breaker. Do not try to ground the unit by
connecting it to telephone wires, lightning rods,
or gas pipes.

•As long as this unit is connected to the AC wall
outlet, it is not disconnected from the AC power
source even if the unit is turned o.
•Do not attempt to modify this product in any
way without written authorization from LG
Electronics. Unauthorized modication could
void the user’s authority to operate this product.
•Outdoor Antenna Grounding
(Can dier by country):
If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the
precautions below. An outdoor antenna system
should not be located in the vicinity of overhead
power lines or other electric light or power
circuits, or where it can come in contact with
such power lines or circuits as death or serious
injury can occur. Be sure the antenna system is
grounded to provide some protection against
voltage surges and built-up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electrical Code (NEC)
in the U.S.A. provides information with respect
to 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.

•Never touch this apparatus or antenna during a
lightning storm.
•When mounting a TV on the wall, make sure not
to install the TV by hanging the power and signal
cables on the back of the TV.
•Do not allow an impact shock, any objects to fall
into the product, and do not drop anything onto
the screen.
•DISCONNECTING THE DEVICE FROM THE MAIN
POWER
The power plug is the disconnecting device.
In case of an emergency, the power plug must
remain readily accessible.
•Batteries
Store the accessories (battery, etc.) in a safe
location out of the reach of children.
•This apparatus uses batteries. In your community
there might be regulations that require you
to dispose of these batteries properly due to
environmental considerations. Please contact
your local authorities for disposal or recycling
information.
•The battery (battery or batteries or battery pack)
shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as
sunshine, re or the like.
•Do not short circuit, disassemble, or allow the

•Do not use high voltage electrical equipment
near the TV, (e.g., a bug zapper.)
This may result in product malfunction.
•Dot Defect
The panel is a high technology product with
resolution of two million to six million pixels.
In a very few cases, you could see ne dots on
the screen while you’re viewing the TV. Those
dots are deactivated pixels and do not aect the
performance and reliability of the TV.
•Generated Sound
Cracking noise A cracking noise that occurs
when watching or turning o the TV is
generated by plastic thermal contraction due to
temperature and humidity. This noise is common
for products where thermal deformation is
required.
Electrical circuit humming/panel buzzing
A low level noise is generated from a high-
speed switching circuit, which supplies a large
amount of current to operate a product. It varies
depending upon the product. This generated
sound does not aect the performance and
reliability of the product.
•Take care not to touch the ventilation openings.
When watching the TV for a long period, the
ventilation openings may become hot. This does
not aect the performance of the product or
cause defects in the product.
•Do not install this product on a wall if it could be
exposed to oil or oil mist. This may damage the
product and cause it to fall.
•If the TV feels cold to the touch, there may
be a small icker when it is turned on. This is
normal; there is nothing wrong with TV. Some
minute dot defects may be visible on the screen,
appearing as tiny red, green, or blue spots.
However, they have no adverse eect on the TV’s
performance. Avoid touching the LCD screen or
holding your nger(s) against it for long periods
of time. Doing so may produce some temporary
distortion eects on the screen.
•Displaying a still image for a prolonged period
of time may cause an image sticking. Avoid
displaying a xed image on the TV screen for a
extended length of time.
