Important Safeguards for You and Your New Device

Always be careful when using your LCD TV. To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and other injuries, keep these safety precautions in mind when installing, using, and maintaining your LCD TV.

1. Read these instructions.

2. Keep these instructions

3. Heed all warnings.

4. Follow all instructions

5. Do not use this device near water.

6. Clean only with a dry cloth.

7. Do not block any of the ventilation openings.

8. Install according to the manufacturer's instructions. Do not install near heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or any other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produces heat.

9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding type plug. A polarized plug has two blades, one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong is provided for your safety. When the plug provided does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet.

10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at the plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the device.

11. Use only attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

12. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the device. When using a cart, use caution when moving the cart/device combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

13. Unplug this device during lightning storms or when not used for long periods of time.

14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the device 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 device; the device has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

15. Do not place this device on a slippery or tilted surface, or on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The device may slide or fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult and serious damage to the device.

16. When mounting the device, follow the manufacturer's instructions, and use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer

17. Avoid overhead power lines. Do not place an outside antenna system in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it could fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, be extremely careful not to touch the power lines or circuits. Contact with such lines can be fatal.

Important Safety Instructions

18. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the device, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the U.S. National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 provides information with 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.

19. Never push objects of any kind through the openings into this device as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts and cause a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the device.

20. If you make adjustments yourself, adjust only the controls covered in the operating instructions. Adjusting other controls may result in damage, and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the LCD TV to normal.

21. When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.

22. Upon completion of any service or repair to this device, ask the service technician to perform routine safety checks to determine that the device is in proper operating condition.

The LCD Panel consists of 3 million cells. It is therefore possible that a few cells might be flawed. We allow a maximum of 6 defective cells for the device to be in proper running order. Please recognize that a device with 6 or fewer defective cells cannot be exchanged or refunded.

LCD Cells

User Instructions

Like all phosphor-based display devices and all TFT LCD Displays, LCD TV' s can be susceptible to phosphor burn under certain circumstances. Certain operating conditions, such as the continuous display of a static image over a prolonged period of time, can result in phosphor burn if proper precautions are not taken. To protect your investment in this LCD TV, please adhere to the following guidelines and recommendations for minimizing the occurrence of image burn.

Recommendation to Avoid or Minimize Phosphor Burn-in:

1. Always enable and use your computer's screen-saver function during use with a computer input source.

2. Display a moving image whenever possible.

3. Change the position of the menu display from time to time.

4. Always power down the LCD TV when you are finished using it.

5. Lower the brightness and contrast levels as much as possible without impairing image readability.

6. Display an image with many colors and color gradations (i.e. photographic or photorealistic images).

7. Create image content with minimal contrast between light and dark areas, for example white characters on black backgrounds. Use complementary or pastel colors whenever possible.

8. Avoid displaying images with few colors and distinct, sharply defined borders between colors.

9. Refer to the "Long Life Functions" section in this manual to minimize image burn.

Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.

Cell Defect

The TFT LCD panel consists of fine cells. Although the panels are produced with more than 99.9 percent active cells, there may be some cells that do not produce light or remain lit.

Warranty

Warranty Period: One year from the date of purchase of your LCD TV. Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.

V-CHIP Operation

The V-CHIP is a microprocessor control circuit that recognizes TV and Motion Picture Ratings. These ratings are contained in a special electronic identification signal that is part of many television programs and recorded videotapes. An on screen menu allows parents to set a secret 4-digit personalized key combination Password. (Please note that we have set an initial Password at the factory. This initial Password is the number 0,0,0,0). Once set, the television will display only programs whose ratings fall within the standards the parent has chosen. Programs that do not fall within the standards the parent has chosen will not be displayed unless the Password is entered.

Some TV programs and movies may not be compatible with V-CHIP ratings.

As shipped from the factory, the V-CHIP is not operational until you perform the following procedure:

Enter your 4-digit Password to bring up the blocking menu. For initial setup, we strongly recommend that you use the factory preset Password of 0,0,0,0. Instructions on changing the Password are at the end of this section.

Enable MPAA rating and choose the MPAA ratings you wish to block.

Enable TV Parental Guide Ratings and choose the TV Parental Guide Ratings you wish to block.

What is the V-CHIP?

General Procedure

IMPORTANT NOTICE-READ BEFORE PROCEEDING FURTHER

We urge you to read the entire V-CHIP section in this manual and make certain you understand it thoroughly before proceeding further. Once chosen and enabled, programs whose ratings have been blocked CANNOT be viewed unless you enter the 4-digit key combination Password. If you forget the Password, the only way you can clear the settings is to take the television to an authorized service center. This is NOT covered under the warranty.

PLEASE NOTE THAT INITIAL V-CHIP PASSWORD AS SHIPPED FROM OUR FACTORY IS 0,0,0,0 (Press the 0 number key 4 times.)

V-CHIP Operation

This procedure allows parents to block programs that contains TV Parental Guide Ratings they consider inappropriate. Content labels are designed to indicate specific contents of TV programs within each TV Parental Guide Rating. For example, if a program rated TV-Y7 has strong Fantasy Violence content, the program will be labeled as TV- Y7-FV. The TV Parental Guide menu allows you to block all FV labeled programs but view all regular TV-Y7 programs

Note : Each rating has a different set of content labels that you can choose to block or View.

Labels that show --- cannot be changed within the selected rating. Refer to the rating and content label guides on the following pages.

TV Parental Guidelines may have one or more letters added to the basic rating to let parent know that a program contains higher levels of potentially offensive material. Note that the content Label should be considered with respect to its associated rating. For example, a “V”label is likely to designate considerably more intense violence when associated with a TV-MA rated program than when associated with a TV-PG rated program.

Note :

•You do not need to block each TV Parental Guide rating individually.The TV-Y and TV-Y7

ratings are handled as a group, and the TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14, and TV-MA ratings are handled as a group. For example, if you choose a program with a TV-14 rating, the V-CHIP will automatically also block TV-MA rated programs. Likewise, passing(unblocking) the TV-MA as passes TV-14 rated programs.

Content Labels

•Also note that you have the option of pass or block programs based on their content

label (D,L,S,V,FV) without necessarily blocking all programs that carry a special rating. For example, you may pass some TV-PG programs, but not those that also carry a “V” (moderate violence) content label.In this case, the V-CHIP will automatically block TV-14 and TV-MA rated programs labeled “V”.

V Violence D Suggestive dialogue

S Sexual situations FV Fantasy violence

L Coarse or crude indecent language

TV Parental Guide Rating

Before proceeding with the TV Parental Guide Rating, please read the following to content labels.

TV-Y (All children)

This rating is designed to be appropriate for all children. Whether animated or live action, the themes and elements in this program are specifically designed for a very young audience, including from 2~6. All content labels are blocked

TV-Y7 (FV : Directed to older children)

This program is designed for children age 7 and above. It may be more appropriate for children who have acquired the developmental skills needed to distinguish between makebelieve and reality. Themes and elements in this program may include mild fantasy violence or comedic violence that may frighten children under the age of 7. Therefore, parents may wish to consider the suitability of this program for their very young children.

Note : Programs in which fantasy violence may be

more intense or more combative than other programs

in this category may be designated TV-Y7-FV.

TV-G (General audience)

Most parents would find this rating suitable for all ages. Although this rating dose not signify a program designed specifically for children, most parents may let younger children watch TV-G programs unattended. They contains little or no violence, no strong language, and little or no sexual dialogue or situations.

TV-PG (D/L/S/V : Parental guidance suggested)

This rating contains material that parents may find unsuitable for younger children. Many parents may want to watch it with their younger children. The theme itself may call for parental guidance, and/or the program contains one or more of the following. Moderate violence(V), some sexual situations(S), Infrequent coarse language(L), or some suggestive dialogue(D).
