It makes a difference how and where you use
As you enjoy your new product, keep these safety tips in mind
The issue
The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend, and larger TVs are popular purchases. However, TVs are not always supported on the proper stands or installed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. We and the consumer electronics industry are committed to making home entertainment enjoyable and safe.
TVs that are inappropriately placed on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers, chests, or carts may fall over and cause injury.
Tune into safety
One size of TV stand does not fit all. Use only a TV stand rated for the weight of your TV.
Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for proper use of this product.
Don’t let children climb on or play with entertainment system furniture and TVs.
Don’t place TVs on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers.
Remember that children can become excited while watching a program, especially on a
“larger-than-life” TV. Make sure that you place or install the TV where it cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.
Make sure that you route all cords and cables so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by
curious children.

Wall mounting
If you decide to wall mount your TV, always remember:
One size of wall mount does not fit all. Use only a wall mount rated for the weight of your TV
and that has been recommended by this TV manufacturer, listed in this manual, or otherwise listed by an independent laboratory as suitable for your TV.
Follow all instructions supplied by the TV and wall mount manufacturers.
If you have any doubts about your ability to safely wall mount your TV, get help from a
professional installer.
Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the TV is appropriate. Some wall mounts are not
designed to be mounted to walls backed with steel studs or cinder blocks. If you are unsure, ask a professional installer.
TVs can be heavy. At least two people are required for safe wall mount installation.

Important safety instructions

CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
This symbol indicates that dangerous voltage constituting a risk of electric shock is present within your TV. This label is located on the back of your TV.
This symbol indicates that there are important operating and maintenance instructions in the literature accompanying your TV.
1 Read these instructions. 2 Keep these instructions. 3 Heed all warnings. 4 Follow all instructions. 5 Do not use this apparatus near water. 6 Clean only with dry cloth. 7 Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions.
8 Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9 Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or
grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10 Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched
particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11 Only use 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 apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13 Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.
14 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is
required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
15 The mains plug is the disconnecting device. The plug must
remain readily operable.
16 The apparatus with grounding-type plug is a class I
apparatus. Class I apparatus need to be connected to earth ground wire to prevent possible electric shock. Make sure that you connect the class I apparatus to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.
17 Remote control batteries should not be exposed to
excessive heat such as sunshine, fire, or the like.
18 The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing,
and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.

Safety Information NS-32E859A11/NS-42E859A11
Power lines
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
Handling the LCD panel
• Your TV’s screen is made of glass. Do not drop your TV or hit, jolt, or press hard against the LCD panel. If the screen breaks, be careful of broken glass.
• If the LCD panel is broken, make absolutely sure that you do not touch the liquid in the panel. This may cause skin inflammation.
• If the liquid gets in your mouth, immediately gargle, rinse, and consult with your doctor. Also, if the liquid gets in your eyes or touches your skin, consult with your doctor after rinsing for at least 15 minutes or longer in clean water.
Replacement parts
When replacement parts are required, make sure that 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, personal injury, or other hazards.
Safety check
After completing any service or repair to this device, ask the service technician to perform routine safety checks to determine that your TV is in correct operating condition.
Power source
Operate your TV only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult an electrician or your local power company.

Cautions

Damage requiring service
Unplug this TV from the power outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
• When the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
• If liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into your TV.
• If your TV has been exposed to rain or water.
• If your TV does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions because incorrect adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore your TV to its normal operation.
• If your TV has been dropped or damaged in any way.
• When your TV exhibits a distinct change in performance.
Outdoor antenna grounding
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to your TV, make sure that the antenna or cable system is grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70, provides information with respect to correct grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of the antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

NS-32E859A11/NS-42E859A11 Safety Information
Note to CATV system installer
Article 820 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 40 provides guidance for correct grounding. Specifically, it states that the cable ground must be connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
Condensation
Moisture will form on the TV if the TV is brought from cool surroundings into a warm room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, the TV's performance may be impaired. To prevent this, let the TV stand in its new surroundings for about an hour before switching it on, or make sure that the room temperature rises gradually.
Condensation may also form during the summer if the TV is exposed to the breeze from an air conditioner. In such cases, change the location of the TV.
Mobile telephone warning
To avoid interference with your TV picture and sound, operating problems, or even damage, keep your cordless and cellular telephones away from the TV.
End of life directives
Your TV contains tin-lead solder. Disposal of this material may be regulated for environmental reasons. Your TV also contains material that can be recycled and reused. For disposal or recycling information, contact your local authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance at www.eia.org to find a recycler in your area.
Non-active pixels
The LCD panel contains almost 3 million thin film transistors, which provide exceptionally sharp video quality. Occasionally, a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed blue, green, or red point.

Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of a high-quality connected Insignia product. Your NS-32E859A11 or NS-42E859A11 represents the start of the art in LED connected TV design. We have created an experience that is easy to use, easy to connect, and easy to find.

Easy to use

TiVo DESIGN™

The only TV that combines the power of the Internet with the legendary TiVo user interface, all in stunning HD. You’ll find entertainment from both broadcast TV and the Internet with just a few clicks of your remote control. Now get what you want, when you want it.
Award-winning TiVo experience: Easily access all your favorite TV shows, movies and more with the easy to use TiVo user interface.
Intelligent Search: Search by title, artist, director, keyword and more.
Access to the best Internet entertainment: Enjoy movies from Netflix and CinemaNow, music from Pandora and Napster, and much more.
Future-proof: New software features, updates, and enhancements download automatically.
Broadband connected: Delivers a plethora of new entertainment choices including TV, Movies, and Music.

Two-year limited warranty

Feel confident in the quality of Insignia TV parts and assembly. Gain peace of mind knowing that you are not only getting the best picture possible but are safeguarded against any unforeseen service and repairs by an industry leading two-year limited manufacturer warranty.

Game mode

Video games generally require adjustments to the television picture settings to get the maximum experience. By simply pressing the GAME button on the front of your TV, your TV settings will automatically adjust for video games. It couldn't be easier.

Insignia Motion 120Hz

With a 120Hz screen, a screen with 1,080 lines of resolution progressively scanned, and special motion-detection technology, you will be experiencing a picture with clearer detail, brightness, smoother transitions, judder-free and reduced motion blurring, particularly when watching fast-motion sports and action scenes. (See page 42 for instructions on how to adjust the TV picture.)

AUDYSSEY Dynamic Volume plus Dynamic EQ

Have you ever caught yourself wishing that you didn't constantly need to adjust the volume: wishing that the commercials wouldn't blare and that you could better hear whispering during a movie scene? Audyssey Dynamic Volume is a feature that lets you put the remote control down and enjoy your show while Audyssey adjusts the sound levels for you automatically. Audyssey Dynamic EQ is a feature that automatically finds the richest sound settings-including enhanced bass-for each scene, even when the volume level is held steady, making the sound coming from your TV speakers sound more lifelike. (See page 48 for instructions on how to adjust the audio settings to take advantage of Audyssey.)

SRS TruSurround HD

At Insignia, providing you with superior audio quality is just as important as exceptional picture quality. That's why we added SRS TruSurround HD, which provides you with a theater-like surround-sound experience, with the clearer dialog and the enhanced bass sounds that movie viewers and gamers crave.
