Damage
– Turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet immediately if the TV set begins to
make any unusual noises or gives off smoke or an unusual smell. Then call your dealer for service.
Servicing
– To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the back of the cabinet. This TV set contains
dangerous voltage.
Unstable surface and shocks
– Do not place this TV set on an unstable cart, stand, shelf, or table. The TV set may fall, causing serious
injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the set. Sharp recommends securing the TV set to a
stable surface or wall to prevent the set from falling due to sudden shocks or impact.
Power-cord protection
– To prevent electrical shock, do not subject the AC power cord to damage by bending or twisting it,
or by placing heavy items on top of it and do not place the AC power cord under the TV set. If the AC
power cord becomes damaged, unplug it from the wall outlet immediately and call your dealer for service.
Moisture
– To prevent electrical shock, do not use the TV set in an excessively damp place.
Water
– To prevent fire or electrical shock, do not place the TV set near a bathroom, swimming pool or other area
where it may become wet.

– Do not place a flower vase or anything else containing liquid on the TV set, as liquid spilt on
the TV set can cause electrical shock or failure.
TV Set position
– Do place the TV set onto an even stand, table or rack which size is bigger than the TV set. If the TV set is
put onto a smaller size or uneven stand, table or rack may cause the TV cabinet distort.
Do not put or insert anything between TV set and the stand, table or rack.
Ventilation
– Do not place this TV set in a confined area, such as on a bookshelf or in a built-in case. Leave adequate
space behind the TV for proper ventilation.
