IMPORTANT INFORMATION
If a television is not positioned in a sufficiently stable location, it
can be potentially hazardous due to falling. Many injuries,
particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple
precautions such as:
sOnly using furniture that can safely support the television.
sEnsuring the television is not overhanging the edge of the
supporting furniture.
sNot placing the television on tall furniture (for example,
cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture
and the television to a suitable support.
sNot standing the televisions on cloth or other materials placed
between the television and supporting furniture.
sEducating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture
to reach the television or its controls.

qualified in the “Home” mode.

sChanges to certain features, settings, and functionalities of this

CAUTION
Bright, stationary images, such as TV station logos or photos,
displayed on your TV can become permanently imprinted
onto the screen. This type of imprint is known as “Image
Retention”. Please take the following steps to reduce the risk
of this occurring (see page 28):
View a variety of programme sources or programming
material. Changing the programme material viewed reduces
the possibility that a single image will become imprinted on
the TV screen.
When using video games, set-top boxes, or similar products
with your TV, or when viewing a TV station whose logo
always stays on the screen, select the appropriate “Picture”
settings for the room brightness and set “Picture Mode” to
“Standard” (see page 30 for instructions on adjusting
“Picture” settings).
This TV was designed primarily for viewing TV broadcasts
in wide screen mode (16:9 aspect ratio). Therefore, when
viewing conventional (4:3) TV programmes, select “Wide
Zoom” in the “Wide Mode”.
To reduce the risk of image retention, turn off the On Screen
Display (OSD) by pressing the / button, and turn off
the menus of connected equipment (see page 18).
IMAGE RETENTION IS NOT COVERED BY YOUR
WARRANTY. Un-repairable damage can occur and is not
covered under warranty.
