yPeriodically examine the cord of your appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage or
deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance, and have the cord replaced with an exact
replacement part by an authorized servicer.
yPrevent dust collecting on the power plug pins or outlet.
This may cause a fire hazard.
yProtect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted,

wall outlets, and the point where the cord exits the appliance.
yDo not press strongly upon the panel with a hand or sharp object such as nail,
pencil or pen, or make a scratch on it, as it may cause damage to screen.
yAvoid touching the screen or holding your finger(s) against it for long periods of
time. Doing so may produce some temporary or permanent distortion/damage to
screen.

ENGLISH
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
yWhen moving or unpacking the product, work in pairs because the product is
heavy.
Otherwise, this may result in injury.
yContact the service centre once a year to clean the internal parts of the product.
Accumulated dust can cause mechanical failure.
yRefer 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 been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has
been dropped.
yIf the product feels cold to the touch, there may be a small “flicker” when it is turned
on. This is normal, there is nothing wrong with product.
yThe panel is a high technology display product with resolution of two million to six
million pixels. You may see tiny black dots and/or brightly coloured dots (red, blue
or green) at a size of 1 ppm on the panel. This does not indicate a malfunction and
does not affect the performance and reliability of the product.
This phenomenon also occurs in third-party products and is not subject to
exchange or refund.
yYou may find different brightness and colour of the panel depending on your
viewing position(left/right/top/down).
This phenomenon occurs due to the characteristic of the panel. It is not related with
the product performance, and it is not malfunction.
yDisplaying a still image (e.g., broadcasting channel logo, on-screen menu, scene from a video
game) for a prolonged time may cause damage to the screen, resulting in retention of the image,
which is known as image sticking. The warranty does not cover the product for image sticking.
Avoid displaying a fixed image on your television’s screen for a prolonged period (2 or more hours
for LCD, 1 or more hours for Plasma).
Also, if you watch the TV at a ratio of 4:3 for a long time, image sticking may occur on the borders of
the panel.
This phenomenon also occurs in third-party products and is not subject to exchange or refund.
yGenerated Sound
“Cracking” noise: A cracking noise that occurs when watching or turning off the TV is generated by
plastic thermal contraction due to tempera-ture 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 on the product.
This generated sound does not affect the performance and reliability of the product.
