Protect 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.
When cleaning the product and its
components, unplug the power first
and wipe it with a soft cloth. Applying

ENG
ENGLISH
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Contact the service centre once a year to
clean the internal parts of the product.
Accumulated dust can cause mechanical
failure.
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.
If 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.
You 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.
Displaying 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.
The 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.
Generated 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.
Do not use high voltage electrical goods
near the TV (e.g. electric mosquitoswatter). This may result in product
malfunction.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Viewing 3D Imaging
(Only 3D models)
WARNING
Viewing Environment
Viewing Time
- When watching 3D contents, take 5 - 15
minute breaks every hour. Viewing 3D
contents for a long period of time may
cause headache, dizziness, fatigue or
eye strain.
Those that have a photosensitive seizure or
chronic illness
Some users may experience a seizure or
other abnormal symptoms when they are
exposed to a ashing light or particular
pattern from 3D contents.
Do not watch 3D videos if you feel nausea,
are pregnant and/ or have a chronic illness
such as epilepsy, cardiac disorder, or blood
pressure disease, etc.
3D Contents are not recommended to those
who suffer from stereo blindness or stereo
anomaly. Double images or discomfort in
viewing may be experienced.
If you have strabismus (cross-eyed),
amblyopia (weak eyesight) or astigmatism,
you may have trouble sensing depth and
easily feel fatigue due to double images. It
is advised to take frequent breaks than the
average adult.
If your eyesight varies between your right
and left eye, revise your eyesight prior to
watching 3D contents.
Symptoms which require discontinuation or
refraining from watching 3D contents
Do not watch 3D contents when you feel
fatigue from lack of sleep, overwork or
drinking.
When these symptoms are experienced,
stop using/watching 3D contents and get
enough rest until the symptom subsides.
- Consult your doctor when the symptoms
persist. Symptoms may include
headache, eyeball pain, dizziness,
nausea, palpitation, blurriness,
discomfort, double image, visual
inconvenience or fatigue.
CAUTION
Viewing Environment
Viewing Distance
- Maintain a distance of at least twice the
screen diagonal length when watching
3D contents. If you feel discomfort in
viewing 3D contents, move further away
from the TV.
Viewing Age
Infants/Children
- Usage/ Viewing 3D contents for children
under the age of 5 are prohibited.
- Children under the age of 10 may
overreact and become overly excited
because their vision is in development
(for example: trying to touch the
screen or trying to jump into it. Special
monitoring and extra attention is
required for children watching 3D
contents.
- Children have greater binocular
disparity of 3D presentations than adults
because the distance between the eyes
is shorter than one of adults. Therefore
they will perceive more stereoscopic
depth compared to adults for the same
3D image.
Teenagers
- Teenagers under the age of 19 may
react with sensitivity due to stimulation
from light in 3D contents. Advise them
to refrain from watching 3D contens for
a long time when they are tired.
Elderly
- The elderly may perceive less 3D
effect compared to the youth. Do not sit
closer to the TV than the recommended
distance.
Cautions when using the 3D glasses
Make sure to use LG 3D glasses. Otherwise,
you may not be able to view 3D videos
properly.
Do not use 3D glasses instead of your
normal glasses, sunglasses or protective
goggles.
Using modied 3D glasses may cause eye
strain or image distortion.
Do not keep your 3D glasses in extremely
high or low temperatures. It will cause
deformation.
The 3D glasses are fragile and are easy
to be scratched. Always use a soft, clean
piece of cloth when wiping the lenses. Do
not scratch the lenses of the 3D glasses
with sharp objects or clean/wipe them with
chemicals.
