ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of the cable entry as prac-
tical.

Note
- If the TV feels cold to the touch, there may be a small “flicker”when when it is turned on. This is normal, there is noth-
ing 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 effect on the monitor's performance.
- Avoid touching the LCD screen or holding your finger(s) against it for long periods of time. Doing so may produce some
temporary distortion effects on the screen.
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 damage or deterioration, unplug it, discon-
tinue 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.

■Insert the eye-bo ts (or TV brackets and bo ts) to tighten the product to the wa as shown in the pic-
ture.
* If your product has the bo ts in the eye-bo ts position , oosen the bo ts.
Secure the wa brackets with the bo ts (not provided as parts of the product, must purchase sepa-
rate y) on the wa . Match the height of the bracket that is mounted on the wa to the ho es in the
product.
Ensure the eye-bo ts or brackets are tightened secure y.
■Use a sturdy rope (not provided as parts of the product, must purchase
