For a longer service life, be sure to read the following cautions.

•The operation panel will operate properly in a temperature range of 0 to 60°C.

•Do not disassemble or modify the set in any way. Doing so may result in damage.

•Subjecting the operation panel to shocks may result in breakage, deformation or other damage.

•Do not let cigarettes burn the display. Doing so may damage or deform the cabinet.

•If a problem should occur, have the set inspected at your store of purchase.

•Do not insert objects or poke in the space between the operation panel and the main unit when the panel is tilted.

•The remote control unit may not work if the remote control sensor is exposed to direct sunlight.

•In extremely cold weather, the display movement may slow down and the display may darken, but this is not a malfunction. The display will work normally when the temperature increases.

•Small black and shiny spots inside the liquid crystal panel are normal for LCD products.

•The touchkeys on the display operate when slightly touched. Do not press the touchkey screen with much force.

•Do not push the case surrounding the touchkey panel with much force. This may cause malfunctioning of the touchkeys.

Cleaning

•Cleaning the cabinet

Use a soft, dry cloth and gently wipe off the dirt. For tough dirt, apply some neutral detergent diluted in water to a soft cloth, wipe off the dirt gently, then wipe again with a dry cloth.

Do not use benzene, thinner, car cleaner, etc., as these substances may damage the cabinet or cause the paint to peel. Also, leaving rubber or plastic products in contact with the cabinet for long periods of time may cause stains.

•Cleaning the liquid crystal panel

The liquid crystal panel tends to collect dust, so wipe it off occasionally with a soft cloth. The surface is easily scratched, so do not rub it with hard objects.
