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 high­speed switching circuit, which supplies a large amount of current to operate a product. It varies depending upon 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.
