pencil or pen, or make a scratch on it.

• Keep the product away from direct sunlight.

• Dot Defect

The Plasma or LCD panel is a high
technology product with resolution of two

million to six million pixels. In a very few
cases, you could see fine dots on the screen

while you're viewing the TV. Those dots
are deactivated pixels and do not affect the

performance and reliability of the TV.

• Generated Sound
"Cracking" noise: A cracking noise that

occurs when watching or turning off the TV
is generated by plastic thermal contraction
due to temperature 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 depending on the product.

This generated sound does not affect the

performance and reliability of the product.

• Take care not to touch the ventilation
openings. When watching the TV for a long

period, the ventilation openings may become
hot. This does not affect the performance of

the product or cause defects in the product.

If the TV feels cold to the touch, there may

be a small "flicker" when it is turned on. This
is normal, there is nothing wrong with TV.

Some minute dot defects may be visible on
the screen, appearing as tiny red, green, or
blue spots. However, they have no adverse
effect on the TV's performance. Avoid
touching the LCD screen or holding your
finger(s) against it for long periods of time.
Doing so may produce some temporary

distortion effects on the screen.

The fluorescent lamp used in this product contains
a small amount of mercury. Do not dispose of
this product with general household waste.
Disposal of this product must be carried out
in accordance to the regulations of your local
authority.

• If a fixed image displays on the TV screen for
a long period of time, it will be imprinted and

become a permanent disfigurement on the
screen. This is "image burn" or "burn-in" and
not covered by the warranty.

• If the aspect ratio of the TV is set to 4:3 for a

long period of time, image burn may occur on

the letterboxed area of the screen.

• Avoid displaying a fixed image on the TV screen
for a long period of time (2 or more hours for

LCD, 1 or more hours for the Plasma TV) to
prevent image burn.

For USA and Canada

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system
installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the

National Electric Code (U.S.A.). The code provides
guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular,
specifies that the cable ground shall be connected
to the grounding system of the building, as close
to the point of the cable entry as practical.

Viewing 3D Imaging

_ WARNING

• 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.

• 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 be stimulated to light coming from 3D videos. Advise them not to
watch 3D videos for a long time when they are tired.

• Elderly

- The elderly may perceive less of a 3D effect than the youth. Do not sit closer to the TV than the

recommended distance.

• Some users may experience a seizure or other abnormal symptoms when they are exposed to a
flashing 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.

• 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.

appropriate. Some wall mounts are not designed to be mounted

to walls with steel studs or old cinder block construction.
