General

Note: If the problem is not solved by using these troubleshooting
instructions, try turning off your TV, then turning it on again.
Maintenance

Just like with any other household appliance, the performance and

life-expectancy of your TV depends on how well you maintain it. Follow

the procedures described here to clean the TV case and the LCD screen.

Cautions:
• Make sure that the TV is turned off and the power cord is
disconnected from the power outlet before cleaning the TV.
• Never spray or pour any liquid directly onto the screen or the case.

Cleaning

• Clean your TV with a soft, dry cloth. If surfaces are extremely

dirty, use a soft cloth dampened with a small amount of

non-ammonia, non-alcohol-based, non-abrasive detergent

solution.

• Clean the screen with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth. If additional

cleaning is necessary, apply a small amount of non-ammonia,

non-alcohol-based, non-abrasive detergent solution to the cloth.
