Important Safeguards

Before using your TV, please read these instructions completely, and keep this manual for future reference. Carefully observe and comply with all warnings, cautions and instructions placed on the unit or described in the operating instructions or service manual.

WARNING

To guard against injury, the following basic safety precautions should be observed in the installation, use and servicing of the unit.

Power Sources

This unit should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the information label.

If you are not sure of the type of electrical power supplied to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.

Grounding or Polarization

This unit is equipped with a polarized AC power cord plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other), or with a three- wire grounding type plug (a plug having a third pin for grounding). Follow the instructions below:

For the unit with a three-wire grounding type AC power cord plug (Class 1 unit)

This unit must be connected to an AC power socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.

For the unit with a polarized AC power cord plug

This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way.

This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the

plug.

If the plug still fails to fit, contact your electrician to have a suitable outlet installed. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by forcing it in.

Wall outlet

Do not use a poor fitting outlet.

Insert the plug fully into the outlet. If it is loose, it may cause arcing and result in fire. Contact your electrician to have the outlet changed.

Wiring

For your safety, unplug the AC power cord when wiring cables.

Electric shock

Do not touch the AC power cord or the unit with a wet hand. If you plug/unplug the AC power cord from the unit with a wet hand, it may cause electric shock.

Never attempt to move the unit unless the AC power cord is disconnected.

Cleaning

= Clean the AC power plug regularly.

= If the plug is covered with dust and it picks up moisture, its insulation may deteriorate and result in fire. Unplug the AC power plug and clean it regularly.

=Unplug the AC power cord when cleaning this unit. If not, it may result in electric shock.

=Clean the cabinet of the TV with a dry soft cloth. To remove dust from the screen, wipe it gently with a soft cloth.

=If using a chemically pre-treated cloth, please follow the instructions provided on the package.

Overloading

Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or convenience receptacles beyond their capacity, since this can result in fire or electric shock.

Power

Always turn the unit off when it is not being used.

When the unit is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet as a precaution against the possibility of an internal malfunction that could create a fire hazard.

Sound

If a snapping or popping sound from the TV is continuous or frequent while the TV is operating, unplug the TV and consult your dealer or service technician. It is normal for TV’s to make occasional snapping or popping sounds, particularly when being turned on or off.

AC Power Cord

If you damage the AC power cord, it may result in fire or electric shock.

=Do not pinch, bend, or twist the cord excessively. The core lines may be bared and cut and cause short-circuit, resulting in fire or electric shock.

=Do not convert or damage the AC power cord.

=Do not put anything heavy on the AC power cord. Do not pull the AC power cord.

=Keep the AC power cord away from heat sources.

=Be sure to grasp the plug when disconnecting the AC power cord. If the AC power cord is damaged, stop using it and replace with a new one.

Ventilation

The slots and openings in the TV are provided for necessary ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the unit, and to protect it from overheating, these slots and openings must never be blocked or covered. Unless proper ventilation is provided, the unit may gather dust and get dirty. For proper ventilation, observe the following:

=Do not install the unit turned backward or sideways.

=Do not install the unit turned over or upside down.

=Never cover the slots and openings with a cloth or other materials.

=Never block the slots and openings by placing the unit on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface.

=Never place the unit in a confined space, such as a bookcase or built-in cabinet, unless proper ventilation is provided.

=Leave some space around the unit. Otherwise, adequate air-circulation may be blocked, causing overheating, and may cause fire or damage the unit.
