KENSINGTON SECURITY SYSTEM
This feature is not available for all models.
Image shown may differ from your TV.
The TV is equipped with a Kensington Security System connector on the back panel. Connect the Kensington Security System cable as shown below.
For the detailed installation and use of the Kensington Security System, refer to the user’s guide provided with the Kensington Security System.
For further information, contact http://www.kensing- ton.com, the internet homepage of the Kensington
company. Kensington sells security systems for expensive electron­ic equipment such as notebook PCs and LCD projectors.
NOTE
- The Kensington Security System is an optional accessory.
NOTES
a. 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.
b. 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 moni­tor's performance.
c. 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.
CAREFUL INSTALLATION ADVICE
A
You should purchase necessary components to fix the TV
safety and secure to the wall on the market.
A
Position the TV close to the wall to avoid the possibility of it falling when pushed.
A
The instructions shown below are a safer way to set up the TV, by fixing it to the wall, avoiding the possibility of it falling forwards if pulled. This will prevent the TV from falling forward and causing injury. This will also prevent the TV from damage. Ensure that children do not climb or hang from the TV.
NOTE
!
G
When moving the TV undo the cords first.
G
Use a platform or cabinet strong and large enough to support the size and weight of the TV.
G
To use the TV safely make sure that the height of the bracket on the wall and on the TV is the same.

There may be interference relating to resolution, vertical pattern, contrast or brightness in PC mode. Change the PC mode to another resolu­tion or change the refresh rate to another rate or adjust the brightness and contrast on the menu until the picture is clear. If the refresh rate of the PC graphic card can not be changed, change the PC graphic card or consult the manufacturer of the PC graphic card.
G
The synchronization input waveform for Horizontal and Vertical frequencies are separate.
G
We recommend using 1920x1080, 60Hz for the PC mode, this should provide the best picture quality.
G
Connect the signal cable from the monitor out­put port of the PC to the RGB (PC) port of the TV or the signal cable from the HDMI output port of the PC to the HDMI IN (or HDMI/DVI IN) port on the TV.
G
Connect the audio cable from the PC to the Audio input on the TV. (Audio cables are not included with the TV).
G
If using a sound card, adjust PC sound as required.
G
If the graphic card on the PC does not output analogue and digital RGB simultaneously, connect only one of either RGB or HDMI IN (or HDMI/DVI IN) to display the PC output on the TV.
G
If the graphic card on the PC does output analogue and digital RGB simultaneously, set the TV to either RGB or HDMI; (the other mode is set to Plug and Play automatically by the TV.)
G
DOS mode may not work depending on the video card if you use an HDMI to DVI cable.
G
If you use too long an RGB-PC cable that is too long, there may be interference on the screen. We recommend using under 5m of cable. This provides the best picture quality.
