Equipment Care and Troubleshooting

DO

Dust the screen and cabinet with a soft cloth.

Clean the screen with a soft cloth moistened in warm water and dry with a soft cloth. A mild soap may be used if the screen is extremely dirty.

Place your Television away from extreme heat, humidity, and extremely dusty places.

Remove the plug from the wall outlet if your Television will not be used for a long period of time, for instances, when you go on vacation.

DO NOT

Do not clean your screen or cabinet with strong cleaners, polishes or a chemically treated cloth.

Do not place rubber or vinyl products or cellophane tape on your Television.

Do not touch the screen too often.

Do not subject the remote control to shocks such as dropping it on the floor, etc. Physical damage to the precision parts may result.

Avoid placing the remote control in a high humidity place or getting it wet. Do not leave it on or near a heater. Excessive heat or moisture may cause the unit to cease operation.

When the batteries run down, remote control operation will become erratic or possibly stop altogether. Replace the old batteries with two new “AA” size batteries as soon as possible to preserve the remote control precodes that were set for the devices. Pressing a remote control button with a “DEAD” battery might erase all precodes in memory. Do not use an old battery with a new battery.

Exposure of the viewing screen to prolonged direct sunlight or heat may cause the screen to permanently warp, resulting in a distorted picture..
