CHILD SAFETY:
It Makes A Difference How and Where You Use The TV Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new product, please 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. TVs that are inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers, chests, or carts may fall over and cause injury.
THIS MANUFACTURER CARES!
The consumer electronics industry is committed to making home entertainment enjoyable and safe.
TUNE INTO SAFETY
One size does NOT fit all. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the safe installation and use of your TV. Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for proper use of this product.
Don’t allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television sets. 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. Care should be taken to place or install the display where it cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.
Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the TV so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children.
Important Safety Information
Moisture will form in the operating section of the unit of the unit is brought from cool surrounding into a warm room or if the temperature
of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, unit’s performance
will be impaired. To prevent this, let the unit 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 unit is exposed to the breeze from an air conditioner. In such cases, change the location of the unit.
HOW TO HANDLE THE LCD PANEL
Do not press hard or jolt the LCD panel. It may cause the LCD panel
glass to break and injury may occur.
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 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.
Possible Adverse Effects on LCD Panel:
If a fixed (non-moving) pattern remains on the LCD panel for long periods of time, the image can become permanently engrained in the LCD panel and cause subtle but permanent ghost images. This type of damage is NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY. Never leave your TV on for long periods of time while it is displaying the following formats or images:
Fixed images, such as stock tickers, video game patterns, TV station
logos, and web sites.
Important Safety Information
Special formats that do not use the entire screen. For example:
viewing letterbox style (16:9) media on a normal (4:3) display (black bars at top and bottom of screen); or viewing normal style (4:3) media on a widescreen (16:9) display (black bars on left and right sides of screen).
The following symptoms are not signs of malfunction but technical limitations
LCD panels are manufactured using an extremely high level of
precision technology; however, sometimes parts of the screen may be missing picture elements or have luminous spots. This is not a sign of malfunction.
Do not install the TV near electronic equipment that produces
electromagnetic waves. Some equipment placed too near this unit may cause interference.
Effect on infrared devices – There may be interference while using
infrared devices such as infrared cordless headphones.
Television Antenna Connection Protection
External Television Antenna Grounding
If an outside antenna/satellite dish or cable system is to be connected to the TV, make sure that the antenna or cable system is electrically grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and static charges.
Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPSA 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 the grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements of the ground electrode.
Important Safety Information
Lightning Protection
For added protection of the TV during a lightning storm or when it is left unattended or unused for long periods of time, unplug the TV from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system.
Power Lines
Do not located the antenna near overhead light or power circuits, or where it could fall into such power lines or circuits.
