technician for replacement.

Do not use sharp tools such as a pin or a pencil near the LCD-TV, as they may
scratch the LCD surface.

Do not use a solvent, such a benzene, to clean the LCD-TV, as it will damage
the LCD surface.
The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing.

Do not modify or process the power cord or plug arbitrarily. Do not bend or twist
the power cord too much. Make sure to disconnect the power cord with the plug

prevent the cover vinyl from melting.

2. Follow these directions. Failure to follow one of them may cause electrical shock.
Do not open the main body. Do not insert metals or inflammable objects inside the
LCD-TV. Do not touch the power plug with wet hands. Disconnect the power cord
