3. Select and check your TV installed location

To prevent potential damage and to increase the lifespan of the TV, please install and operate the TV by following rules:

If wall mounting, have a qualified and experienced technician mount it safely. Use only a recommended wall bracket (optional accessory) for this TV and ensure that the bracket is securely screw fixed to the wall structure, and not just the wall render, lining or cladding. Do not just glue the bracket to the wall. Ensure the bracket is level horizontally.

Do NOT place the TV near water, like a spa or pool, or in a position which will allow the splashing or spraying of water onto the display, like in front of an open window where rain water may enter.

Do NOT place the TV near or above sources of heat, such as radiators, heaters, fuel stoves and other heat-generating items (including audio amplifiers). Otherwise heat may cause damages to the outer casing as well as the components inside.

If wall mounting, allow appropriate space on top for attaching the TV to the wall bracket.

If recessed into a wall opening, you must leave appropriate free space both top and bottom for mounting and removing the TV.

Do NOT cover or block the vents and openings while the TV is switched on, as the heat may accumulate inside the TV and result in danger.

Observe all warnings and cautions as labelled on the TV.

This TV has no power switch. When installing the TV, incorporate a readily accessible disconnect device in the fixed wiring, or connect the power cord to socket-outlet which must be provided near the TV and easily accessible. If a fault should occur during operation of the unit, operate the disconnect device to switch the power supply off, or disconnect the power cord.

Do NOT place the TV in direct sun or where direct sun or spot lighting will shine onto the TV, as the heat may damage the TV and the bright light will make viewing the TV more difficult than necessary.

Do NOT place the TV on an uneven, sloping or unstable surface (such as a trolley) where it may fall and cause damage to itself or others. Have a qualified technician secure the TV where it is placed in case there is an earthquake.

Do NOT place the TV in an enclosed place without allowing for ventilation.

All Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) screens have a very thin protective layer of glass which is liable to marking or scratching, and cracking if struck or pressured. The liquid crystal substrate is also liable to damage under excessive force or extreme temperatures. Please handle with care.

Please use the power cable that comes with the screen. Improper use may result in electric shock and fire.

Care and cleaning information

Always turn off and disconnect the TV from the mains power before cleaning.• Do NOT use cream, liquid, aerosol or spray cleaners. Use only a slightly damp well • wrung-out (drip-free) and lint-free, clean soft cloth and lightly wipe the TV. If necessary, use a pH-neutral liquid dish-washing detergent diluted with water on a • separate clean lint-free cloth to remove oil or grease marks. Wipe over again with a clean dry lint-free cloth to remove any smear marks. Under close examination and in certain circumstances, you may notice that a few • non-active pixels appear on the screen as a ﬁ xed point of color. Please note that this does not affect the performance of your product as it is usually not visible at normal viewing distances. If the TV is not going to be used for an extended period of time (like when you are • going away for holidays), it should be switched off and unplugged from the wall outlet. You should also consider removing the batteries from the remote control (as they may leak). LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screens, like plasma (PDP) and conventional CRT • (Cathode Ray Tube) screens, are also susceptible to 'screen burn-in' or 'image retention' which can be found on the screen as visible ﬁ xed lines and shades and can't be removed. To avoid such permanent damage to the screen, please take the following preventive measures when using your TV: (1) Avoid displaying still images (like On-Screen Display menus, TV station logos,

ﬁ xed/inactive text or icons) for more than two hours.

(2) Change the aspect ratio from time to time. Fill the entire screen with the image

and eliminate the black bars whenever possible. Avoid displaying images in 4:3 aspect ratio over a long period of time, otherwise there may be visible burn marks on the screen as two vertical lines.

(3) Turn on the ECO Mode function when displaying PC input image (see "ECO

Mode" on page 25).

(4) This TV is designed for home use only. Do not use it as a commercial display in

public areas. Please note that the product warranty does not cover any screen damages that result from the failure to take the measures above.
