COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY. Never leave your TV

on for long periods of time while it is displaying the

following formats or images:

• Fixed Images, such as PIP/POP windows, stock tickers,

video game patterns, TV station logos, and websites.

• Never attempt to install any of the following during

lightning activity:

a) an antenna system; or b) cables, wires, or any home

theater component connected to an antenna or phone

29)Always unplug the TV before cleaning. Never use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Clean only with a dry cloth.

30)WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
