Important Safety Instructions
Be sure to observe the following instructions and
precautions to ensure safe use of this TV.
Installation
1) Always connect the power plug to an
electrical outlet equipped with 110-240V,
AC 50/60Hz.
Never use the TV outside the specified
voltage range. It may cause a fire or an
electric shock.
WARNING ABOUT THREE-WIRE
GROUNDING-TYPE PLUG (For 20V300H
model only):
• This product shall be connected to a main
socket outlet with a protective earthing
connection.
• Never remove the earthing pin on the power
plug. This system is equipped with a three
pin earthing-type power plug. This plug will
only fit an earthing-type power outlet. This is
a safety feature. If you are unable to insert
the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician
to replace the wall outlet.
• Never defeat the purpose of the earthing
plug.
Check!
Ex. 110-240V AC, 50/60Hz
About the fuse
In a three pin earthing-type, the fuse fitted
in this plug is approved by ASTA or BSI to
BS1362. It should only be replaced by a
correctly rated and approved type and the
fuse cover must be refitted.
2) Never insert or remove the power plug with
wet hands.
This may cause electric shock.
3) Never place the TV in an unstabilized
location such as on a shaky table, incline
or location subject to vibration.
The TV may drop or fall down which may
cause injury or damage.
4) Never block or cover the slots and
openings in the cabinet.
• Never place the TV so that it is facing
upward or on its side.
• Never place the TV in a closet, bookcase or
other similar area where the ventilation is
poor.
• Never drape a newspaper, tablecloth or
curtain on the TV.
• When installing the TV against a wall,
always keep the TV at least 10 cm away
from the wall.
• Never place the TV on a soft unstable
surface, such as a carpet, or a cushion.
The inside of this TV will overheat if the
ventilation holes are covered, blocked or
sealed, which may result in a fire.

5) Never place the TV near a heater or in
direct sunlight.
The surface of the cabinet or power cord may
melt and result in malfunction, fire or electric
shock.
6) Never place the TV in an area exposed
to high humidity levels, such as in a
bathroom or close to a humidifier.
This may cause malfunction, a fire or an
electric shock.
7) Never place the TV next to a stove where it
will be exposed to oil, smoke, or steam, or
in a location where there is a large quantity
of dust.
This may cause malfunction, a fire or electric
shock.
Introduction
8) Install the TV in a horizontal, stable
location. Connect between two clips on the
back of the TV and a wall, pillar, etc., with a
sturdy tie and clip of supplied accessories
(page 27).
• Use as short a tie as possible to ensure the
TV is stable.
• If the TV is not installed securely, it may lean

10) Precautions for installing on outdoor
antenna
An outside antenna system should not be
located in the vicinity of overhead power lines,
or other electric light or power circuits.
If the antenna falls down or drops, it may
cause injury or electric shock.
Use
1) Never place hot objects or open flame
sources, such as lighted candles or
nightlights, on or close to the TV.
High temperatures can melt plastic and lead
to fires.
2) The apparatus shall not be exposed to
dripping or splashing and that no objects
filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be
placed on the apparatus.
When liquids are spilled or small items are
dropped inside the TV, this may cause a fire or
an electric shock. If small objects drop inside
the TV, turn off the TV and remove the power
plug from the outlet immediately and contact a
service technician.
3) Never insert objects (metal or paper)
or pour water inside the TV through
ventilation holes and other openings.
These items may cause a fire or an electric
shock. If these objects are inserted inside
the TV, turn off the TV and remove the power
plug from the outlet immediately and contact
a service technician. Be especially careful that
children do not insert objects in the TV.
Clip
4) Never stand or climb on the TV.
Be especially careful in households with
children to prevent them through climbing on
top of the TV. It may move, fall over, break,
become damaged or cause an injury.
5) When the TV will not be used for a long
period of time, such as during vacation or
travel, remove the power plug from the wall
outlet for safety.
• The TV is not completely disconnected from
the power supply line, as minute current is
consumed even when the f/I Power switch
is turned off.
• The Mains plug or an appliance coupler is
used as the disconnect device, therefore
the disconnect device shall remain readily
operable.

the antenna cable or other connected
cables.
You may suffer an electric shock.
Service

Cleaning
1) Remove the power plug before cleaning.
Never use solvents such as benzine or thinner
to clean the TV.
• These solvents may distort the cabinet or
damage its finish.
• If rubber or vinyl products remain in contact
with the TV for a long time, a stain may
result.
If the cabinet becomes dirty, clean it with a
soft, dry cloth.
When cleaning the surface of the LCD display,
wipe the panel surface gently with a soft, dry
cloth.
2) Periodically disconnect the power plug
from the outlet and check it.
If dust has collected on the power plug
connectors, clean off the dust.
This dust may cause a fire due to reduced
insulation on the plug.
Or, it may also cause poor contact between
the power plug and the outlet leading to failure
in power up.

advise you on which antenna to use in your area.
Before connecting the antenna cable, turn off all
