Important Safety Instructions

IMPORTANT - Please read these instructions. All the safety and operating instructions
should be read before the appliance is operated.

Important Information - Regarding Use of
Video Games, Computers, Captions or Other
Fixed Image Displays

The extended use of fi xed image program material
can cause a permanent “shadow image” on the
LCD panel.
This background image is viewable on normal
programs in the form of a stationary fi xed image. This
type of irreversible LCD/LED panel deterioration can
be limited by observing the following steps:

1. Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a
minimum viewing level.

2. Do not display the fi xed image for extended
periods of time.

3. Turn the power off when not in actual use.
Examples of images that you need to watch out for

are as follows (this is not an exhaustive list):

• TV Channel Logos: e.g. Shopping channel logos
and pricing displays; especially if they are bright
and stationary.

• Moving or low contrast graphics are less likely to
cause ageing of the screen.

• Time Displays

• Teletext: Do not view a stationary page for a long
period of time

• TV/DVD Menus: e.g. Listings of DVD disc content

• Pause Mode: Do not leave the TV in pause mode
for long periods of time, e.g. When watching
DVDs or videos.

Important Safety Instructions

IMPORTANT - Please read these instructions. All the safety and operating instructions
should be read before the appliance is operated.

3D Safety Information

• If you watch the 3D imaging too closely or for a
long period of time, it may harm your eyesight.

• Watching the TV or playing video games that
incorporate 3D imaging with the 3D glasses for
a long period of time can cause drowsiness,
headaches or fatigue to you and/or your eyes. If
you have a headache, or otherwise feel fatigued
or drowsy, stop watching the TV and take a rest.

• Pregnant woman, seniors, persons with heart
problems or persons who experience frequent
drowsiness should refrain from watching 3D TV.

• Some 3D imaging may cause you to duck
or dodge the image displayed in the video.
Therefore, it is best if you do not watch 3D TV
near fragile objects or near any objects that can
be knocked over easily.

• Please prevent children under the age of 5 from
watching 3D TV as it may affect their vision
development.

Warning for photosensitization seizure

• Some viewers may experience a seizure or
epilepsy when exposed to certain factors,
including fl ashing lights or images in TV or video
games. If you or anybody from your family has a
history of epilepsy or seizure, please consult with
your doctor before watching 3D TV. Also certain
symptoms can occur in unspecifi ed conditions
without any previous history. If you experience
any of the following symptoms, immediately stop
watching the 3D imaging and consult a doctor:
dizziness or light headedness, visual transition
or altered vision, visual or facial instability, such
as eye or muscle twitching, unconscious action,
convulsion, loss of conscience, confusion or
disorientation, loss of directional sense, cramps,
or nausea. Parents should monitor their children,
including teenagers, for these symptoms as they
may be more sensitive to the effects of watching
3D TV.

Risk of photosensitization seizure can be
reduced with the following actions.

• Take frequent breaks from watching 3D TV.

• For those who have vision that is different in each
eye, they should watch the TV after taking vision
correction measures.

• Watch the TV so that your eyes are on the same
level as the 3D screen and refrain from sitting too
closely to the TV.

• Do not watch the 3D imaging when tired or sick,
and avoid watching the 3D imaging for a long
period of time.

• Do not wear the 3D glasses for any other
purpose than viewing 3D imaging on a 3D TV.

3D TV. Therefore, after you watch 3D TV, take
a moment to regain awareness of your situation
before moving.

HELPFUL ADVICE FOR FIRST TIME STAND INSTALLATION

When securing the self-tapping screws into the base of the stand (on
fi rst installation) the screws will be naturally tight as they are creating a thread in the plastic of the stand
neck in order to support a TV of this size.

a) Ensure the cross head screw driver tip fi ts correctly into the head of the screw and that it is not too big
or small.

b) Screw in all screws individually and partially before tightening all of the screws individually and partially
until they are fully inserted.

c) If they become very tight try loosening them slightly and then
re-tightening them once again as this will continue the process of
creating the thread for the screws.

Securing the TV to a Wall

For 47” models only. To detach the stand please
remove the 4 screws highlighted then remove the

4 x M(4x14)

For maximum security in the home when using a TV with its stand anti-tip straps should be fi tted. These are
available from supermarket websites and other websites and are an easy, inexpensive and effective way of
ensuring your TV stays safely upright. Straps are designed to be attached to the rear of the TV and then tethered to
the wall of the furniture the TV is stood on, if wood. (The 2 images should appear underneath this text).

Note - Please ensure that children do not climb on the
TV set.

A) Using one or both of the top wall-mounting holes
and screws (the screws are already supplied in the
wall mounting holes) fasten one end of the
fastening cord/s to the TV.

The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents is urging people to take care with fl at-screen televisions.
RoSPA stated in 2010 that “Toddlers are particularly at risk of pulling fl at-screen televisions on to themselves. They

are unsteady on their feet and are attracted by colourful television images. We know that children have been killed
and seriously injured when televisions have fallen on them and our fear is that such accidents will increase with the
growing popularity of fl at-screen televisions”.

B) Secure the other end of the fastening cord/s to
your wall. (you will need screws/fi xings suitable for
your wall type - available separately from most
DIY stores)

The risk is increased as televisions become lighter.

Wall Mounting

IMPORTANT - Before drilling any holes in the wall ensure you are not drilling where there could be any electric wires, water or
gas pipes. To complete the stand installation you will require a cross head screw driver.

1) Remove the four screws highlighted below.

2) The wall mount can now be easily attached to the mounting holes on the rear of the TV. These holes are
indicated in the picture below.

IMPORTANT – If wall mounting this TV, only use the
screws already provided in the wall mounting holes.
Using other screws which are longer could cause
irreparable damage to internal parts.

For optimum viewing, if wall mounting the TV higher
than eye level, the TV should be tilted downwards so
that the TV’s screen is ‘face on’.

Important

As part of our ongoing development to reduce power
consumption, we have added an extra function to this
Television called ‘Ecohome’ (you will see this during
the fi rst time installation set up). Power consumption
using the Ecohome function is approximately 15%
lower than some other modes. The picture brightness
is reduced using the Ecohome function. If this
function is not suitable for your viewing environment,
you can select other modes as necessary.
(Please note, ‘Demo’ mode is for optimum default
picture settings, however, power consumption is
approximately 15% higher than ‘Ecohome’ mode)

Please refer to the user guide section ‘Picture
settings’ in order to change the mode to one that
maybe more suitable for your environment. There
is also a shortcut button on the remote control
called ‘P-Mode’ should you wish to change to
another mode.

3D Settings

For the best 3D picture effect, watch your TV from
vertical angle +/- 10°.

3D Type

When connecting a 3D product sometimes the
picture maybe displayed incorrectly; choose from the
following settings to correct this. You can toggle these
settings by pressing the '3D' button on your remote

3D format is commonly used in 3D broadcasting, works by halving the horizontal resolution
of videos to store left and right eye images in each frame. It effectively displays up to 960 x
1080 pixel pictures to each eye, enabling TV stations to telecast 3D content at a much lower
bandwidth compared with 3D Blu-ray discs. Typical supported resolutions are limited to 720p
and 1080i for 3D TV programs.

Users will need to manually select the correct 3D format to properly display side-by-side
3D content on a 3D TV.

3D format is alternative for 3D broadcast, which is pretty similar to side-by-side 3D except
that it halves the vertical resolution instead. Available primarily up to 720p resolution, top­and-bottom 3D offers 1280 pixels horizontally. The higher pixel count is generally considered
more suitable for displaying panning motion insports programs.

As its name suggests, this format stacks the left and right eye images in each frame to retain
the content's original resolution for the best 3D pictures. Most, if not all, 1080p 3D
Blu-ray movie discs and 720p PS3 3D games are produced utilizing this technique. Another
key differentiator is that all 3D TVs should be able to automatically detect frame-packing 3D
signals and correctly display the content without user intervention.

The picture signals for left and right eyes are interleaved in alternate lines. The left clip’s
resolution is halved then placed in the odd lines of the video stream. Correspondingly, the
right clip’s resolution is halved then placed in the even lines of the video stream. When
combined the video stream totals 1920×1080.
