This equipment has been tested and found to com-

ply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pur-

suant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are

designed to provide reasonable protection against

harmful interference in a residential installation. This

equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio fre-

quency energy and, if not installed and used in

accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful

interference to radio communications. However,

there is no guarantee that interference will not

occur in a particular installation. If this equipment

does cause harmful interference to radio or televi-

sion reception, which can be determined by turning

the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to

try to correct the interference by one or more of

the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment

and receiver.

- Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit

different from that to which the receiver is con-

nected.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV

technician for help.

Any changes or modifications not expressly

approved by the party responsible for compliance

could void the user’s authority to operate the

equipment.

CAUTION

Do not attempt to modify this product in any way

without written authorization from LG Electronics.

Unauthorized modification could void the user’s

authority to operate this product

The lightning flash with arrowhead

symbol, within an equilateral triangle,

is intended to alert the user to the

presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage”

within the product’s enclosure that may be of

sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric

shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral

triangle is intended to alert the user to

the presence of important operating and main-

tenance (servicing) instructions in the literature

accompanying the appliance.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO

USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER TO

QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

WARNING/CAUTION

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE AND ELECTRIC

SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO

RAIN OR MOISTURE.

NOTE TO CABLE/TV INSTALLER

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 sys-

tem of the building, as close to the point of the cable

entry as practical.

WARNING / CAUTION

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read these instructions.

Keep these instructions.

Heed all warnings.

Follow all instructions.

Do not use this apparatus near water.

Clean only with dry cloth.

Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in

accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

Do not install near any heat sources such as

radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus

(including amplifiers)that produce heat.

Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized

or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has

two blades with one wider than the other. A

grounding type plug has two blades and a third

grounding prong, The wide blade or the third

prong are provided for your safety. If the provided

plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an

electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

Protect the power cord from being walked on

or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience

receptacles, and the point where they exit from

the apparatus.

Only use attachments/accessories specified by

the manufacturer.

Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket,

or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold

with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use

caution when moving the cart/apparatus

combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

Unplug this apparatus during lighting storms or

when unused for long periods of time.

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.

SAFETY INSTRUCTION

Never touch this apparatus or antenna during a

thunder or lighting storm.

When mounting a TV on the wall, make sure not to

install the TV by the hanging power and signal

cables on the back of the TV.

Do not allow an impact shock or any objects to fall

into the product, and do not drop onto the screen

with something.

CAUTION concerning the Power Cord :

It is recommend 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 elec-

tric shock.

Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall out-

lets, 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 servicer. 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 make 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.

WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire or electrical

shock, do not expose this product to rain, moisture

or other liquids. Do not touch the TV with wet

hands. Do not install this product near flammable

objects such as gasoline or candles or expose the

TV to direct air conditioning.

Do not expose to dripping or splashing and do not

place objects filled with liquids, such as vases, cups,

etc. on or over the apparatus (e.g. on shelves above

the unit).

GGRROOUUNNDDIINNGG

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 grouned AC outlet) If grounding

methods are not possible, have a qualified electri-

cian install a separate circuit breaker.

Do not try to ground the unit by connecting it to

telephone wires, lightening rods, or gas pipes.

If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the precau-

tions below. An outdoor antenna system should not

be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or

other electric light or power circuits, or where it can

come in contact with such power lines or circuits as

death or serious injury can occur.

Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to pro-

vide some protection against voltage surges and

built-up static charges.

Section 810 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) in

the U.S.A. provides information with respect to prop-

er grounding of the mast and supporting structure,

grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna dis-

charge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of

antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding

electrodes and requirements for the grounding elec-

trode.

PREPARATION

ATTACHING THE TV TO A WALL

We recommend that you set up the TV close to a wall so it cannot fall over if pushed backwards.

Additionally, we recommend that the TV be attached to a wall so it cannot be pulled in a forward direction,

potentially causing injury or damaging the product.

Caution: Please make sure that children don’t climb on or hang from the TV.

■

Insert the TV brackets (or eye-bolts) and bolts to tighten the product to the wall as shown in the picture.

*If your product has the bolts in the eye-bolts position before inserting the eye-bolts, loosen the bolts.

Secure the wall brackets with the bolts (not provided as parts of the product, must purchase separately) on

the wall. Match the height of the bracket that is mounted on the wall to the holes in the product.

Ensure the eye-bolts or brackets are tightened securely.

■

Use a sturdy rope (not provided as parts of the product, must pur-

chase separately) to tie the product. It is safer to tie the rope so it

becomes horizontal between the wall and the product.

The TV can be conveniently swivelled on its stand 20°or 90° to the left or right to provide the opti-

mum viewing angle.
