Read this manual thoroughly before first use and keep it in a safe place for
future reference, along with the completed warranty card, purchase receipt
and carton. The safety precautions enclosed herein reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock and injury when correctly adhered to.

Follow all instructions and take notice of all the warnings.

General Safety Instructions

IMPORTANT WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS!

• Only connect this TV to a mains socket with a protective earthing connection.

• To prevent damage which may result in fire or an electric shock hazard, do not
expose this appliance to rain or moisture.

• Do not change or modify the appliance in any way.

• Only use the attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

This set employs an optical laser beam system in the disc mechanism
designed with built-in safeguards. Do not attempt to disassemble.
Exposure to this invisible laser light beam may be harmful to the
human eye.

This is a Class-1 laser product. Use of controls, adjustments or
procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous
laser light beam exposure.

This TV set with DVD player should not be adjusted or repaired by
anyone except qualified service personnel. The laser mechanism in the
set corresponds to the stylus (needle) of a record player. Although this
product uses a laser pick-up lens, it is completely safe when operated
according to directions.

LASER SAFETY

The lightning flash with an arrowhead
symbol within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert you to the presence
of non-insulated dangerous voltage
within the product’s enclosure that
may be of sufficient magnitude to
constitute a risk of electric shock to
persons.

The exclamation point within an equi­lateral triangle is intended to alert you
to the presence of important operating
and maintenance (servicing) instruc­tions in the literature accompanying
the product.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove

the cover (or back).

This unit contains no user-serviceable parts inside.

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel only.

• When deciding on where to put the TV set, make sure the place is:

• Well ventilated, and away from damp and cold.

• Protected from overheating and away from direct sunlight.

• Away from moisture drips or splashes.

• Protected from excessive dust or grease.

• Bookcase: Do not install this equipment in a confined space such as a
bookcase or similar unit.

• Heat: Do not install the TV set near heat sources such as radiators, stoves
or other audio visual equipment (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

• Water: Do not place containers with liquids (such as vases) or with small
metallic objects on top of the unit. If liquid enters the unit or any metal
object falls into the unit, it may result in short-circuit, fire or electric shock.

• Fire or explosion: Do not use or store flammable or combustible materials
near the unit. Doing so may result in fire or explosion. Do not place any
naked flame sources, such as lit candles, cigarettes or incense sticks on
top of the TV set.

• Antenna: Install the antenna away from high-voltage power lines and
communication cables and make sure it is installed securely. If the antenna
touches a power line, contact with the antenna could result in fire, electric
shock or serious injury.

• Ventilation: Install the unit at an adequate distance from the wall to ensure
sufficient ventilation. If the temperature inside the unit rises, it may result in fire.

General Safety Instructions (Cont.)

Installation

• Follow instructions: Only install this TV set in accordance with the

instructions in this manual. If a television is not positioned in a sufficiently
stable location, it can be potentially hazardous due to falling and causing
injury, particularly to children.

• This TV is equipped with standard wall-mounting points, and we recommend

that a wall bracket be installed between the TV and the wall to prevent
the TV from falling from a cabinet. (The bracket is not included.)

• To prevent injuries from your television falling, take a few simple precautions:

• Do not place the TV on tall furniture (e.g., on a cupboard or bookcase)
without anchoring both the furniture and the TV to a suitable support.

• Only use furniture that can safely support the television.

• Ensure the TV is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.

• Educate children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach TV
controls.

• Do not place the TV on cloth or other materials.

Electrical safety and cord handling

• Voltage: Before installing this TV set, make sure your outlet voltage

corresponds to the voltage stated on the appliance rating label.

• Protect from moisture: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do
not expose this appliance to rain or moisture; do not use it anywhere near
water; do not touch the power plug with wet hands.

• Damage: Do not use a damaged power cord, plug or loose outlet. Doing so
may cause an electric shock.

• Power outlet: Do not plug several devices into the same outlet. Doing so
may cause the outlet to overheat and start a fire. Make sure the outlet is
readily accessible during operation of the equipment.

• Power plug: Make sure the plug is properly installed before inserting it fully
into the outlet. A loose or improperly inserted power plug may cause a fire.

• Protect the cord: Do not bend, twist or kink the power cord excessively.
Do not allow anything to rest on or roll over the power cord and antenna
cable. Doing so may cause a fire or an electric shock. Do not run the power
cord near heat-producing appliances such as radiators, stoves or irons. The
excessive heat could melt the insulation and expose live wires, resulting in
fire or electric shock.

• Disconnect: Always grasp the plug when disconnecting the power cord.
Pulling the cord can damage the internal wire and may cause a fire.

• Lightning storms: Unplug this TV during lightning storms or when unused
for long periods of time. Not doing so may result in fire or electric shock.

Usage conditions and restrictions

• Adjustments: Follow the instructions in this manual when installing and

adjusting the TV set. Only adjust those controls that are covered in this
manual, as improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage.
If this happens, unplug the TV set and have it serviced by appropriately
qualified personnel, or phone the after sales support line for advice.

• Ventilation: Do not cover the ventilation openings with items such as
newspapers, tablecloths, curtains etc. as this could impede ventilation.

• Cabinet slots: Do not insert objects of any kind into this unit through the
cabinet slots, as they could touch the current-carrying parts or short-circuit
parts, resulting in fire, electric shock or damage to the unit.

• Smoke or odour: If you notice any unusual odours or smoke around
the unit, immediately disconnect the unit from the outlet and contact the
service centre. Failure to do so may result in fire or electric shock.

General Safety Instructions (Cont.)

• When not in use: When not using the unit for long periods of time,
disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet. Dust could accumulate
over time on the unit and cause it to generate heat and ignite, or deteriorate
insulation, which in turn may result in an electrical fire.

• Moving: When moving the unit, be sure to turn it off and unplug it from the
wall outlet. Moving the unit with the power cord connected to the outlet
may cause damage to the cord, resulting in fire or electric shock.

• Batteries: When removing the batteries from the remote control, make sure
to keep them out of reach of infants and children. Seek medical attention
immediately if a child has swallowed a battery.

• Usage restriction: This product is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of ex­perience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruc­tions concerning use of the product by a person responsible for their safety.

• Children: Supervise young children to ensure they do not play with the TV.

Cleaning and maintenance

• Unplug: To reduce the risk of fire and electric shock, always unplug the TV

before cleaning.

• Cleaning: Only use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning the TV; do not use a damp
cloth. Never clean with industrial strength polish, wax, benzene, paint
thinner, air freshener, lubricant, detergent or other chemicals. Wipe off any
moisture, dirt or dust on the power plug pins with a clean, dry cloth.

• Repair: If the unit requires repair, contact the after sales support line; never
disassemble or modify the unit or attempt to service it yourself.

• Service: Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is
required when the TV has been damaged in any way, such as when the
power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the TV, when the TV has been exposed to rain or moisture,
does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

Disc protection

• Store your discs in a cool area to avoid damage from heat.

• Do not touch the playback side of the disc.

• Do not attach tape or paper to the disc. To clean off dust, slightly moisten a
soft cloth and finish with a dry cloth.

• Do not use any type of solvent, commercially available benzene or antistatic
spray for vinyl LPs, as these may damage the discs.

• See the DVD Mode section for more disc cleaning and handling tips.

Important notes

When using the USB/Media function, remember the following important points:

• We strongly recommend you back up all data in the USB storage device
to another storage device so you do not risk losing any data in case of an
unexpected device failure or accident. We do not assume liability for any

loss of data due to misuse or malfunction. Data backup is your personal
responsibility.

• You cannot change to a channel from another broadcaster or select
another function while in recording mode.

• If the signal is interrupted or removed while in recording mode, the record­ing will stop until the signal is established. This may cause you to lose
program content.

• Do not turn the TV off during recording, otherwise the TV will exit the
time-shift function and turn to standby mode.

• The file recorded can only be used in this TV. Do not copy it to any other
device.

• When you are in time-shift recording mode, you may experience some
difficulty with a scheduled recording at different times without removing
the USB recording device. You will need to remove the USB device as it is
required to reset after each recording to protect the device from damage.
If you see the message ‘DISK NOT READY’ displayed, remove the device,
reconnect and proceed with your recording.

• Some USB storage devices may not be compatible for smooth operation
with this TV.

• For large file sizes and large capacity storage devices, the loading speed
may be longer. The recognition speed of a USB storage device may vary
depending on the device.

• When connecting or disconnecting the USB storage device, ensure the TV
is not in USB mode, otherwise the USB device or the files stored in it may
be damaged.

• Only use a USB storage device formatted in a FAT32 file system provided
with the Windows operating system. If it is formatted by a different utility
program that is not supported by Windows, it may not be recognised.

• Ensure any USB devices connected to the TV do not use/exceed 500mA
power rating.

• If an “Unsupported File” message is displayed, the file format or codec is
unsupported or corrupted.

• Do not use record cleaning sprays, benzene, thinner, static electricity
prevention liquids.

• Be careful not to drop or bend the disc.

• Do not insert more than one disc in the disc compartment.

• Do not try to close the disc cover when the disc is not inserted properly.

• Be sure to store the disc in its exclusive case when not in use.

• DO NOT store discs in humid or dusty areas, or where they are exposed to
direct sunlight or sources of heat (such as a heating appliance)

Cleaning dirty discs

• If a disc is dirty, wipe the surface gently with a soft cloth, dampened with a
little water (no other liquids).

• When wiping discs, always move the cloth from the centre hole towards the
outside, which will not cause distortion. (If you wipe the disc using a circular
motion, circular scratches are likely to occur, which will cause distortion.)

• If the disc is brought from a cold to a warm environment, moisture may
form on the disc. Wipe this moisture off with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth
before using the disc.
