5Maintenance

Cabinet Cleaning

Wipe the front panel and other exterior surfaces of the unit with a soft cloth immersed in lukewarm water and wrung dry.

Never use a solvent or alcohol. Do not spray insecticide liquid near the unit. Such chemicals may cause damage and discoloration to the exposed surfaces.

Servicing

Should your unit become inoperative, do not try to correct the problem yourself. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Turn off the unit, unplug the power cord and call our toll free customer support line found on the cover of this manual to locate an authorized service center.

Picture Tube Cleaning

Wipe the picture tube of the TV with a soft cloth. Before cleaning the picture tube, disconnect the power cord.

IR Signal Check

If the remote control is not working properly, you can use an AM radio or digital camera (including a cellular phone with built-in camera) to see if it is sending out an infrared signal.5Glossary

With an AM radio:

Tune the AM radio station to a non-broadcasting

frequency. Point the remote control towards it, push any button and listen. If the sound from the radio flutters, it is receiving the remote control’s infrared signal.

• With a digital camera (including built-in cell phone cameras) Point a digital camera

towards the remote control. Push any button on the remote control and look through the digital camera. If the infrared light appears through the camera, the remote control is working.

Degaussing

A degaussing circuit in this unit clears up color errors on the TV screen. Color errors occur when there is any excess magnetism close to the unit. This circuit is designed to operate once when the unit is first plugged in. If you see minor color errors on the screen, unplug the unit for approximately 30 minutes. When you plug the unit again, the degaussing circuit will operate to clear errors. Take this step any time the TV screen is accidentally magnetized or when you move the unit.
