FCC NOTICE

Class B digital device

This equipment has been tested and found to com­ply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pur­suant 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 fre­quency 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 televi­sion 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 con­nected.

- 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 equi-

lateral triangle is intended to alert the

user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instruc­tions in the literature accompanying the

appliance.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

supplied with the apparatus.

This information shall be given in a language acceptable to the country where the apparatus is intended to be used.
The important safety instructions shall be entitled “Important Safety Instructions”. The following safety

instructions shall be included where applicable, and, when used, shall be verbatim as follows. Additional safety
information may be included by adding statements after the end of the following safety instruction list. At the
manufacturer’s option, a picture or drawing that illustrates the intent of a specific safety instruction may be
placed immediately adjacent to that safety instruction:

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.

Never touch this apparatus or antenna during
a thunder or lighting storm.

Do not allow a impact shock or any objects to
fall into the product, and do not drop onto the
screen with something.

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 exposed to rain or moisture,
does not operate normally, or has been
dropped.

CAUTION concerning the Power Cord :
Most appliances recommend they 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 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
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.

Outdoor use marking :
WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire or elec-

tric shock, do not expose this appliance to rain
or moisture.

Wet Location Marking : Apparatus shall not be
exposed to dripping or splashing and no
objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall
be placed on or over apparatus.

GGRROOUU NNDDIINNGG
Ensure that you connect the earth ground wire

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.

ATTACHING THE TV TO A WALL

PREPARATION

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

Secure the wall brackets with the bolts (not provided as parts of the product, must purchase separately ) to
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 purchase
separately) to tie the product. It is safer to tie the rope so it becomes horizontal
between the wall and the product.
