ANTENNAS

Outdoor antenna grounding

If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the precautions below. An outdoor antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can come in contact with such power lines or circuits.

WHEN INSTALLING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA SYSTEM, EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO KEEP FROM CONTACTING SUCH POWER LINES OR CIRCUITS AS CONTACT WITH THEM IS ALMOST INVARIABLY FATAL.

Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.

Section 810 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) in the U.S.A. and Section 54 of the Canadian Electrical Code in Canada provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

CLEANING

Cleaning the AC power plug

Unplug the AC power plug and clean it regularly. If the plug is covered with dust and it picks up moisture, its insulation may deteriorate and result in a fire.

Cleaning the screen surface/ cabinet of the TV set

Unplug the AC power cord when cleaning this TV. If not, it may result in electric shock. Clean

the cabinet of the TV with a dry soft cloth. To

remove dust from the screen, wipe it gently with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth slightly dampened with a solution of mild soap and warm water. Never use strong solvents such as thinner or benzine for cleaning. If using a chemically pretreated cloth, please follow the instruction provided on the package. The ventilation holes can accumulate dust over time. To ensure proper ventilation, we recommend removing the dust periodically (once a month) using a vacuum cleaner.

MAGNETIC INFLUENCE

This TV contains a strong magnet in the speaker unit that generates a magnetic field. Keep any items susceptible to magnetic fields away from the speaker.

SOUND

If a snapping or popping sound from the TV is continuous or frequent while the TV is operating, unplug the TV and consult your dealer or service technician. It is normal for some TV’s to make occasional snapping or popping sounds, particularly when being turned on or off.

CARRYING THE TV

To avoid dropping the TV and causing serious injury, be sure to follow these guidelines:

sBefore carrying the TV, disconnect all cables.

sCarrying the large size TV requires two or more people.

sWhen you carry the TV, place your hand as illustrated and hold it securely. Do not put stress on the LCD panel.

sWhen carrying the TV, do not subject it to shocks or vibration, or excessive force.
