y
(Can differ by country):
If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow
the precautions 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 provide
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

Ventilation
y
Install your TV where there is proper
ventilation. Do not install in a confined
space such as a bookcase. Do not cover the
product with cloth or other materials while
plugged. Do not install in excessively dusty
places.
If you smell smoke or other odors coming
y
from the TV, unplug the power cord and
contact an authorized service center.
Do not press strongly upon the panel with
y
your hand or a sharp object such as a nail,
pencil or pen, or make a scratch on it.
Keep the product away from direct sunlight.
y
Dot Defect
y
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
y
“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 highspeed 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
y
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
y
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.
Preventing “Image burn” or “Burn-in” on your TV screen
If a fixed image displays on the TV screen for
y
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
y
long period of time, image burn may occur on
the letterboxed area of the screen.
Avoid displaying a fixed image on the TV screen
y
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
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 system of the building, as close
to the point of the cable entry as practical.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Viewing 3D Imaging (For 3D models)
WARNING
Viewing Environment
Viewing Hour
y
When watching 3D videos, take a 5 - 15 minute break every hour. Watching TV for a long time may
cause headache, dizziness, fatigue or eye strain.
Viewing Age
Infants/Children
y
- Prohibit children under the age of 5 from watching or using 3D videos.
- Children under the age of 10 may react overly excited, for example, trying to touch the screen or
jumping into it because their vision is in development. Extra special monitoring is required for children
watching 3D videos.
- For children, the distance between eyes is shorter than one of adults, so they have greater binocular
disparity of 3D presentations than adults, perceiving more stereoscopic depth even for the same 3D
image.
Teenagers
y
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
y
The elderly may perceive less of a 3D effect than the youth. Do not sit closer to the TV than the
recommended distance.

ENGLISH
ENG
Those who have a photosensitive seizure or chronic illness
Some users may experience a seizure or other abnormal symptoms when they are exposed to a
y
flashing light or particular pattern from 3D videos.
Do not watch 3D videos if you have a chronic illness (epilepsy, cardiac disorder, or blood pressure
y
disease, etc.); if you often feel nausea; or if you are pregnant.
If you suffer from stereo blindness or stereo anomaly, it is not recommended to watch 3D videos.
y
You may experience double images or discomfort in viewing.
If you have squint, amblyopia (weak eyesight) or astigmatism, you may have a trouble sensing depth
y
and easily feel fatigue due to double images. It is advised to take a break more often than general
adults do.
If you have different eyesight between your right and left eyes, revise your eyesight first before
y
watching 3D videos.
Symptoms requiring to refrain from or stop watching 3D videos
Symptoms requiring to refrain from or stop watching 3D videos
y
Do not watch 3D videos when you feel fatigue due to lack of sleep, overwork or drinking.
If you experience those symptoms, stop using/watching 3D videos and rest until the symptom
disappear.

Otherwise, you may not able to view 3D videos properly.
ENGLISH
ENG
Cautions when using the 3D glasses
Make sure to use LG 3D glasses. Otherwise, you may not able to view 3D videos properly.
y
Do not use the 3D glasses instead of your normal glasses, sunglasses or protective goggles.
y
Using modified 3D glasses may cause eye strain or image distortion.
y
Do not keep your 3D glasses in extremely high or low temperatures to prevent them from
y
deformation.
The 3D glasses are fragile, and easy to scratch. Always use a soft, clean piece of cloth when wiping
y
the lenses. Do not scratch the lenses of the 3D glasses with sharp objects or wipe them with any
chemicals.
When watching 3D videos under fluorescent lighting or with three wave length lamps, you may see
y
the screen blinking. In this case, turn the light off or turn it down.
Put other electronic or communication devices away from the TV or turn them off. Interference may
y
occur, which prevents the 3D function from working properly.
If you watch TV lying down, 3D images become to look dark or invisible.
