CAUTION concerning the Power Cord
(Can differ by country):
It is recommended that appliances be placed upon a
dedicated circuit; that is, a single outlet circuit which
powers only that appliance and has no additional
outlets or branch circuits. Check the specification
page of this owner’s manual to be certain. Do
not connect too many appliances to the same AC
power outlet as this could result in fire or electric
shock. Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded
wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets,
extension cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or
cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of these
conditions could result in electric shock or fire.
Periodically 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 service. 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. Do
not move the TV with the power cord plugged in.
Do not use a damaged or loose power cord. Be sure
do grasp the plug when unplugging the power cord.
Do not pull on the power cord to unplug the TV.

Grounding
(Except for devices which are not grounded.)
Ensure that you connect the earth ground wire to
prevent possible electric shock (i.e. a TV with a
three-prong grounded AC plug must be connected
to a three-prong grounded AC outlet). If grounding
methods are not possible, have a qualified
electrician install a separate circuit breaker. Do not
try to ground the unit by connecting it to telephone
wires, lightening rods, or gas pipes.

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.

ENGLISH
WARNING
Viewing Environment
Viewing Time
- When watching 3D content, take 5 - 15 minute
breaks every hour. Viewing 3D content 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
flashing light or particular pattern from 3D Content.
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 Content 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
Content.
Symptoms which require discontinuation or
refraining from watching 3D contents
Do not watch 3D Content when you feel fatigue
from lack of sleep, overwork or drinking.
When these symptoms are experienced, stop using/
watching 3D Content and get enough rest until the
symptom subsides.
- Consult your doctor when the symptoms persist.

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 Content. If
you feel discomfort in viewing 3D Content, move
further away from the TV.
Viewing Age
Infants / Children
- Usage/ Viewing 3D Content for children under the
age of 5 are prohibited.

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 Content.
- 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.
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 modified 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.
