ANTENNAS

Outdoor antenna grounding

If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the precautions below. Do not install the outdoor antenna system near 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 that it can 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 in regard 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.

Batteries

Do not cast away batteries in a fire.

Do not disassembled, overheat, or short-circuit the batteries.

If the battery is replaced in the wrong way, it may cause danger of explosion. Replace only with the same or equivalent type.

Batteries must not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.

Dispose used batteries

To preserve our environment, dispose of used batteries according to your local laws or regulations.

CLEANING

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

Cleaning the screen surface/ cabinet of the TV set

When cleaning this TV, unplug the AC power cord. If not, it may result in electric shock. Use

a dry soft cloth to clean the cabinet of the TV. To remove dust near 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 you to remove the dust periodically (once a month) using a vacuum cleaner, while the LED TV is powered off.

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 you hear snapping or popping sound comes from

the TV continuously or frequently while the TV is operating,

unplug the TV and consult your dealer or service technician. It is normal for some TVs to make occasional snapping or popping sounds, particularly when being turned on or off.

CARRYING THE TV

Carry the TV as instructed

To prevent dropping the TV and causing serious injury, you must follow these guidelines:

Disconnect all cables before carrying the TV.

Carrying the large size TV requires at least two or three people.

When you carry the TV, place your hands as illustrated and hold it securely. Do not put stress on the LCD panel and the frame around the screen.

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

When lifting or moving the TV, hold it securely from the bottom. Place your palm directly under the panel.

VENTILATION

Slots and openings in TV are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the TV and to protect it from overheating, be sure these openings are not blocked or covered. The TV may accumulate dust and get dirty if proper ventilation is not provided. For proper ventilation, follow the following guidelines:

• Never install the TV face up, down or sideways.

Never install the TV turned over or upside

down.

• Never cover the slots and openings with a
