27) If you use the TV in a room whose temperature is 32 ¼F (0 ¼C) or below, the picture brightness may vary until the LCD warms up. This is not a sign of malfunction.

28) Always unplug the TV before

cleaning. Gently wipe the display panel surface (the TV

screen) using dry, soft cloth only (cotton, flannel, etc.). A hard cloth may damage the

surface of the panel. Avoid

contact with alcohol, thinner, benzene, acidic or alkaline solvent cleaners, abrasive cleaners, or chemical cloths, which may damage the surface. Never spray volatile compounds such as insecticide on the cabinet. Such products may damage or discolor the cabinet.

29) To avoid damage to this product, never place or store the TV in direct sunlight; hot, humid areas; or areas subject to excessive dust or vibration.
