Maintenance

Early malfunctions can be prevented. Careful and regular cleaning can extend the amount of time you will
have your new TV. Be sure to turn the power off and unplug the power cord before you begin any cleaning.

Cleaning the screen

The LCD screen should be handled with care. It is recommended to use anti-static wipes or an LCD-screen

cleaning kit if you need to clean the screen.

Cleaning the cabinet

To remove dirt or dust, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Please be sure not to use a wet

cloth.

Extended Absence

If you expect to leave your TV dormant for a long time (such as a vacation), it’s a good idea
to unplug the power cord to protect against possible damage from lightning or power surges.

Handling Discs

1. To remove a disc from its storage case, press on the center of the case and take the disc out.

2. Hold the disc by the edges, to avoid touching the Recorded side of the disc.

Cleaning discs

1. Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped from the disc’s surface with a soft Cloth.
Audio discs and DVD discs have no grooves to collect dust and microscopic debris so gently
Wiping with a soft cloth should remove most particles. Wipe in a straight line from the inside
to the outside of the disc. Small dust particles and light stains should have no effect on
reproduction quality.

2. Never use chemicals such as record sprays, antistatic sprays, Benzine, or thinners to clean

the discs. These chemicals can irreparably damage the disc’s surface.

3. Discs should be returned to their cases after use. This avoids serious scratches that could

cause the laser pickup to skip.

4. Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high, humidity, or high temperature for extended periods.

Exposure to high temperatures can warp the disc.

5. Do not stick paper or write anything with a ball point pen on the label side of the disc.
