FCC NOTICE
Class B digital device
This equipment has been tested and found to com-
ply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pur-
suant to Part 15 of the CC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio fre-
quency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment
does cause harmful interference to radio or televi-
sion reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to
try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment
and receiver.
- Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is con-
nected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
Any changes or odifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for co pliance
could void the user’s authority to operate the
equip ent.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to modify this product in any way
without written authorization from LG Electronics.
Unauthorized modification could void the user’s
authority to operate this product
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 product’s enclosure that may be of
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of elec-
tric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equi-
lateral triangle is intended to alert the
user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instruc-
tions in the literature accompanying the
appliance.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
WARNING/CAUTION
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE AND ELEC-
TRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRO-
DUCT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
NOTE TO CABLE/TV INSTALLER
This reminder is provided to call the CATV sys-
tem installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the
National Electric Code (U.S.A.). The code pro-
vides guidelines for proper grounding and, in
particular, specifies that the cable ground shall
be connected to the grounding system of the
building, as close to the point of the cable entry
as practical.

Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket,
or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold
with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use
caution when moving the cart/apparatus
combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
Never touch this apparatus or antenna during
a thunder or lighting storm.
Do not allow a impact shock or any objects to
fall into the product, and do not drop onto the
screen with something. (You may be injured or
the product can be damaged.)
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the apparatus has
been damaged in any way, such as power-supply
cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been
spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus,
the apparatus has exposed to rain or moisture,
does not operate normally, or has been
dropped.
CAUTION concerning the Power Cord :
Most appliances recommend they be placed
upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a single outlet
circuit which powers only that appliance and
has no additional outlets or branch circuits.
Check the specification page of this owner's
manual to be certain.
Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall
outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension
cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or
cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of
these conditions could result in electric shock
or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your
appliance, and if its appearance indicates dam-
age or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use
of the appliance, and have the cord replaced
with an exact replacement part by an authorized
servicer. Protect the power cord from physical
or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted,
kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked
upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall
outlets, and the point where the cord exits the
appliance.
Outdoor use marking :
WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire or elec-
tric shock, do not expose this appliance to rain
or moisture.
Wet Location Marking : Apparatus shall not be
exposed to dripping or splashing and no
objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall
be placed on or over apparatus.
GGRROOUUNNDDIINNGG
Ensure that you connect the earth ground wire
to prevent possible electric shock. If grounding
methods are not possible, have a qualified

FEATURES OF THIS TV
What is a Plas a TV ?
Using plasma is the best way to achieve flat panel
displays with excellent image quality and large screen
sizes that are easily viewable. The Plasma TV can be
thought of as a descendant of the neon lamp and or
a series of fluorescent lamps.
How does it work?
Plasma TV is an array of cells, known as pixels, which
are comprised of three sub-pixels, corresponding to
the colors red, green, and blue. Gas in a plasma state
is used to react with phosphors in each sub-pixel to
produce colored light (red, green, or blue). These
phosphors are the same types used in Cathode Ray
Tube (CRT) devices such as televisions and common
computer monitors.
Plasma TV offers a rich, dynamic display because
each sub-pixel is individually controlled by advanced
electronics to produce over 16 million different col-
ors. This means that you get perfect images that are
easily viewable in a display that is fewer than five
inches thick.
160° - Wide angle range of vision
Your flat panel plasma screen offers an exceptionally
broad viewing angle of over 160 degrees. This means
that the display is clear and visible to viewers any-
where in the room.
Wide Screen
The wide screen offers a theater-like experience in
your own home.
Multi edia
Connect your plasma display to a PC and use it for
conferencing, games, and Internet browsing. The
Picture-in-Picture feature allows you to view your PC
and video images simultaneously.
Versatile
The light weight and thin size makes it easy to install
your plasma display in a variety of locations where
conventional TVs do not fit.
The Plas a TV Manufacturing Process: a few
inute colored dots ay be present on the
Plas a TV screen
The Plasma TV is composed of 0.9 to 2.2 million
cells. A few cell defects will normally occur in the
Plasma TV manufacturing process. Several tiny,
minute colored dots visible on the screen should be
acceptable. This also occurs in other Plasma TV
manufacturers' products. The tiny dots appearing
does not mean that this Plasma TV is defective. Thus
a few cell defects are not sufficient cause for the
Plasma TV to be exchanged or returned. Our pro-
duction technology minimizes these cell defects dur-
ing the manufacture and operation of this product.
Cooling Fan Noise (This feature is not available for all models.)
In the same way that a fan is used in a PC computer
to keep the CPU (Central Processing Unit) cool, the
Plasma TV is equipped with cooling fans to cool the
Monitor and improve its reliability. Therefore, a cer-
tain level of noise could occur while the fans are
operating and cooling the Plasma TV.
The fan noise doesn't have any negative effect on
the Plasma TV's efficiency or reliability. The noise
from these fans is normal during the operation of
this product. We hope you understand that a certain
level of noise from the cooling fans is acceptable and
is not sufficient cause for the Plasma TV to be
exchanged or returned.

PREPARATION
ATTACHING THE TV TO A WALL
We recommend that you set up the TV close to a wall so it cannot fall over if pushed backwards.
Additionally, we recommend that the TV be attached to a wall so it cannot be pulled in a forward direction, poten-
tially causing injury or damaging the product.
Caution: Please make sure that children don’t climb on or hang from the TV.
■Insert the eye-bolts (or TV brackets and bolts) to tighten the product to the wall as shown in the picture.
*Insert the eye-bolts and tighten them securely in the upper holes.
Secure the wall brackets with the bolts (not provided as parts of the product, must purchase separately )
on the wall. Match the height of the bracket that is mounted on the wall to the holes in the product.
Ensure the eye-bolts or brackets are tightened securely.
■Use a sturdy rope (not provided as parts of the product, must purchase sepa-
rately) to tie the product. It is safer to tie the rope so it becomes horizontal
between the wall and the product.
