8 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

yyTake care not to touch the ventilation openings when watching the TV for long periods as the ventilation openings may become hot. This does not affect the operation or performance of the product.

yyPeriodically examine the cord of your appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance, and have the cord replaced with an exact replacement part by an authorized servicer.

yyPrevent dust collecting on the power plug pins or outlet.

This may cause a fire hazard.

yyProtect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and the point where the cord exits the appliance.

yyDo not press strongly upon the panel with a hand or sharp object such as nail, pencil or pen, or make a scratch on it, as it may cause damage to screen.

yyAvoid touching the screen or holding your finger(s) against it for long periods of time. Doing so may produce some temporary or permanent distortion/ damage to screen.

yyWhen cleaning the product and its components, unplug the power first and wipe it with a soft cloth. Applying excessive force may cause scratches or discolouration. Do not spray with water

or wipe with a wet cloth. Never use glass cleaner, car or industrial shiner, abrasives or wax, benzene, alcohol etc., which can damage the product and its panel.

Otherwise, this may result in fire, electric shock or product damage (deformation, corrosion or breakage).

yyAs long as this unit is connected to the AC wall outlet, it is not disconnected from the AC power source even if you turn off this unit by SWITCH.

yyWhen unplugging the cable, grab the plug and unplug it, by pulling at the plug.

Don’t pull at the cord to unplug the power cord from the power board, as this could be hazardous.

yyWhen moving the product, make sure you turn the power off first. Then, unplug the power cables, antenna cables and all connecting cables.

The TV set or power cord may be damaged, which may create a fire hazard or cause electric shock.

yyWhen moving or unpacking the product, work in pairs because the product is heavy.

Otherwise, this may result in injury.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

9

yyContact the service centre once a year to clean the internal parts of the product. Accumulated dust can cause mechanical failure.

yyRefer 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.

yyIf the product feels cold to the touch, there may be a small “flicker” when it is turned on. This is normal, there is nothing wrong with product.

yyThe panel is a high technology display product with resolution of two million to six million pixels. You may see tiny black dots and/or brightly coloured dots

(red, blue or green) at a size of 1 ppm on the panel. This does not indicate a malfunction and does not affect the

performance and reliability of the product. This phenomenon also occurs in thirdparty products and is not subject to exchange or refund.

yyYou may find different brightness and colour of the panel depending on your viewing position(left/right/top/down).

This phenomenon occurs due to the characteristic of the panel. It is not related with the product performance, and it is not malfunction.

yyDisplaying a still image (e.g., broadcasting channel logo, on-screen menu, scene from a video game) for a prolonged time may cause damage to the screen, resulting in retention of the image, which is known as image sticking. The warranty does not cover the product for image sticking.

Avoid displaying a fixed image on your television’s screen for a prolonged period

(2 or more hours for LCD, 1 or more hours for Plasma).

Also, if you watch the TV at a ratio of 4:3 for a long time, image sticking may occur on the borders of the panel.

This phenomenon also occurs in thirdparty products and is not subject to exchange or refund.

yyGenerated Sound

“Cracking” noise: A cracking noise that occurs when watching or turning off the TV is generated by plastic thermal contraction due to tempera-ture and humidity. This noise is common for products where thermal deformation is

required. Electrical circuit humming/panel buzzing: A low level noise is generated from a high-speed switching circuit, which supplies a large amount of current to operate a product. It varies depend-ing on the product.

This generated sound does not affect the performance and reliability of the product.

yyDo not use high voltage electrical goods near the TV (e.g. electric mosquitoswatter). This may result in product malfunction.

»» Only using furniture that can safely support the television.

»» Ensuring the television is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.

»» Not placing the television on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television to a suitable support.

»» Not standing the televisions on cloth or other materials placed between the television and supporting furniture.

»» Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television or its controls.
