MAINTENANCE
Early malfunctions can be prevented. Careful and regular cleaning can extend the amount of time you can
enjoy your new TV.
Caution: Be sure to turn the power off and unplug the power cord before you begin any cleaning.
Cleaning the Screen
Here’s a great way to keep the dust off your screen for a while. Wet a soft cloth in a mixture of lukewarm
water and a little fabric softener or dish washing detergent. Wring the cloth until it’s almost dry, and then
use it to wipe the screen.
