Precautions

Installing your TV

Place the TV on the floor or on a sturdy platform. The mounting surface should be flat and steady. If you install the TV on a soft floor, make sure that the floor is not damaged by the weight of the TV.

Place the TV far enough away from the walls to allow proper ventilation. This will prevent the TV from overheating and avoid possible damage to the TV. Avoid dusty places too.

Damage may occur if you leave the TV in direct sunlight or near a heater. Avoid places subject to extremely high temperatures or humidity, and temperatures of 41˚F(5˚C) or lower.

Using your TV

Do not stand or climb on the TV.

Do not put any heavy object on top of the TV.

Do not place containers with liquids such as drinks or cosmetics on the TV. If any foreign material or water leaks into the TV, unplug the power cord and contact your dealer.

If the room temperature suddenly rises, condensation may occur on the lenses, resulting in picture distortion or color fading. In such a case, simply wait a while (with the power on) and the condensation will evaporate.

Avoid displaying stationary images on your TV screen for extended periods of time. Stationary patterns generated by a picture-in-picture (PIP) display, Multi-Window display, computer displays, video games, stock market reports, etc., can become permanently engrained on the picture tube. This damage is not protected by your warranty because it is the result of misuse. If you wish to use your TV to display still images, reduce brightness and contrast settings. Never leave a PIP, Multi-Window, computer, or video game display unattended.

Sit approximately 10-25 feet away from the TV. Sitting too far to the left or right of the screen will cause the picture to appear dull as will direct sunlight and room lights. Turn the TV off to check for reflections on the screen. Then remove the source of any reflections while viewing.

Cleaning your TV

Clean the TV with a soft dry cloth. Never use strong solvents such as thinner or benzine which might damage the finish of the cabinet. If the cabinet is very dirty, use a damp cloth to wipe the cabinet clean, and then finish with a dry cloth.
