It makes a difference how and where you use
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.

CHILD SAFETY
your flat panel display
As you enjoy your new product, keep
these safety tips in mind
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 to 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:
• 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 (such as UL, CSA, or
ETL) 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.

Safety information
Warning
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover or
back. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer
servicing to qualified service personnel.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose your
TV to rain or moisture.
Caution
To prevent electric shock, match the wide blade on the power
cord plug to the wide slot on an electric outlet. If the plug does
not fit, consult a licensed electrician to replace the obsolete
outlet. Do not modify the power cord plug, or you will defeat
this safety feature.
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.
Warnings
Your TV contains tin-lead solder and a fluorescent lamp
containing a small amount of mercury. Disposal of these
materials may be regulated for environmental reasons. For
disposal or recycling information, contact your local authorities
or the Electronic Industries Alliance at www.eia.org.
Your TV should not be exposed to dripping or splashing, and
no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, should be placed
on the TV.
Read instructions
Read all of the safety and operating instructions
before you use your TV.
Retain instructions
Retain safety and operating instructions for
future reference.
Follow warnings and instructions
Follow all warnings on your TV and in the
operating instructions. Follow all operating and
use instructions.
Water and moisture
Do not use your TV near water. For example, do
not use it near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen
sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a
swimming pool.
Cleaning
Unplug your TV before cleaning. Do not use
liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use only a soft,
lint-free cloth to clean the exterior of your TV.
Ventilation
Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back
or bottom are provided for ventilation, reliable
operation, and protection from overheating.
These openings must not be blocked or covered.
Do not block the openings by placing your TV on
a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Do not
place your TV near or over a radiator or heat
register. Do not place your TV in a built-in
installation, such as a bookcase or rack, unless
you provide correct ventilation or follow the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Heat
Make sure that your TV is located away from
heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,
stoves, or other products (including amplifiers)
that produce heat.
Grounding or polarization
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
grounding prong. The wide blade or grounding
prong are provided for your safety. If the plug
does not fit, contact an electrician to replace the
obsolete outlet.
Power cord protection
Route power cords so that they are not likely to
be walked on or pinched by items placed on or
against them. Pay particular attention to cords at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from your TV.
Accessories
Use only attachments/accessories
recommended by Insignia.
Stand
Do not place your TV on an unstable
cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table.
Your TV may fall, causing serious
personal injury and serious damage
to your TV. Use only with a cart,
stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by
the manufacturer, or sold with your TV. If you
mount your TV to the wall, follow the
manufacturer’s instructions and use a mounting
accessory recommended by the manufacturer.
Your TV and cart combination should be moved
with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and
uneven surfaces may cause your TV and cart
combination to overturn.
Lightning
For added protection for your TV’s receiver
during a lightning storm, or when it is left
unattended and unused for long periods of time,
unplug it from the power outlet and disconnect
the antenna or cable system. This helps prevent
damage to your TV from lightning and power line
surges.
Servicing
Do not attempt to service your TV yourself
because opening or removing covers may
expose you to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
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
www.insignia-products.com
5
Insignia NS-LCD52HD-09 52” LCD HD TV
original part. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in fire, electric shock, personal injury, or
other hazards.
Overloading
Do not overload power outlets and extension
cords because this can result in a risk of fire or
electric shock.
Object and liquid entry
Never push objects of any kind into your TV
through openings because objects may touch
dangerous voltage points or short out parts that
could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill
liquid of any kind on your TV.
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.
Safety check
After completing any service or repair to this TV,
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 your TV dealer or local power
company.
Screen protection
Your TV’s screen is made of glass. Do not drop
your TV or hit the glass screen. If the screen
breaks, be careful of broken glass.
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. These non-active pixels do
not adversely affect the performance of your TV,
and are not considered defects.
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.

Note to CATV system installer
This reminder is provided to call the CATV
system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of
the NEC that provides guidelines for correct
grounding and in particular, specifies that the
cable ground must be connected to the
grounding system of the building as close to the
point of cable entry as practical.
Mobile telephone warning
To avoid interference with your TV picture and
sound, operating problems, or even damage,
keep your mobile telephone away from the TV.
End of life directives
Your new TV contains materials which can be
recycled and reused. At the end of your TV’s life,
specialized companies can dismantle the
discarded TV to concentrate the reusable
materials and to minimize the amount of
materials to be disposed of. Dispose of your old
TV according to local regulations.
Disconnect
An apparatus with CLASS I construction shall be
connected to an AC power outlet with a
protective earthing connection. Where the AC
plug or an appliance coupler is used as the
disconnect device, the disconnect device shall
remain readily operable.

Connecting your TV to a power outlet
To connect your TV to a power outlet:
• Plug the power cord into a power outlet.
Notes
• Make sure that you use the correct type of
power. See the label on your TV.
• If you do not intend to use your TV for an
extended period of time, unplug the power cord
from the power outlet.
Connecting an outside antenna
Antenna cables come in two types: 75 ohm and
300 ohm.
75 ohm cable
300 ohm cable
• If your antenna cable has a 75 ohm
connector, connect the cable to the coaxial
jack on the back of your TV.
• If your antenna cable has a 300 ohm
connector, connect the cable to a
300-75 ohm adapter (not included), connect
the adapter to a 75 ohm cable, then connect
the other end of the 75 ohm connector to the
coaxial jack on the back of your TV.
Connecting cable TV
Your TV has a 75 ohm jack for connecting cable
TV.
Some cable TV providers scramble the signals
for “premium” (pay) channels. To view these
channels, you need a converter/descrambler
box.
If you do not have a converter/descrambler box,
you can connect your cable TV directly to your
TV. If you have a converter/descrambler box, you
can connect your cable TV using an RF switch
(not supplied). For more information about
connecting a converter/descrambler box, contact
your cable TV provider.
To connect cable TV without a
converter/descrambler box:
1 Connect one end of a 75 ohm cable to the
coaxial jack on the back of your TV.
2 Connect the other end of the cable to the
cable TV wall outlet.
To connect cable TV with a
converter/descrambler box:
• Use the following illustration to connect a
converter/descrambler box. (The RF switch
and the signal splitter are not provided.)
Set the RF switch to the A position to watch
unscrambled channels controlled by your TV
remote control. Set the RF switch to the B
position to watch scrambled channels
controlled by the converter/descrambler
controls.
