touch, there may be a small
“flicker” when it is turned
on. This is normal, there is
nothing wrong with product.

The panel is a high

y

technology display product
with resolution of two million
to six million pixels. You
may see tiny black dots and/
or brightly coloured dots
(red, blue or green) at a
size of 1 ppm on the panel.
This does not indicate a

affect the performance and
reliability of the product.
This phenomenon also
occurs in third-party products
and is not subject to
exchange or refund.

You may find different

y

brightness and colour of the
panel depending on your
viewing position(left/right/top/
down).
This phenomenon occurs due
to the characteristic of the

the product performance, and
it is not malfunction.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Displaying a still image (e.g., broadcasting

y

channel logo, on-screen menu, scene from a
video game) for a prolonged time may cause
damage to the screen, resulting in retention of
the image, which is known as image sticking. The
warranty does not cover the product for image
sticking.
Avoid displaying a fixed image on your
television’s screen for a prolonged period (2
or more hours for LCD, 1 or more hours for
Plasma).
Also, if you watch the TV at a ratio of 4:3 for
a long time, image sticking may occur on the
borders of the panel.
This phenomenon also occurs in third-party
products and is not subject to exchange or
refund.

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 high-speed
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.

and become overly excited because their vision
is in development (for example: trying to touch
the screen or trying to jump into it. Special
monitoring and extra attention is required for
children watching 3D contents.

- Children have greater binocular disparity of 3D
presentations than adults because the distance
between the eyes is shorter than one of adults.
Therefore they will perceive more stereoscopic
depth compared to adults for the same 3D
image.

yTeenagers

- Teenagers under the age of 19 may react with
sensitivity due to stimulation from light in 3D
contents. Advise them to refrain from watching
3D contens for a long time when they are tired.

yAntenna Isolator Installation Guide

- Use this to install TV in a place where there is a voltage difference between TV Set and GND of antenna signal.

»If there is a voltage difference between TV Set and GND of antenna signal, the antenna contact might be

heated and excessive heat might cause an accident.

- You can improve the safety when watching TV by efficiently removing power voltage from TV antenna. It is
recommended to mount the isolator to the wall. If it cannot be mounted to the wall, mount it on the TV. Avoid
disconnecting the antenna Isolator after installation.

- Before starting, be sure that the TV antenna is connected.

“Equipment connected to the protective earthing of the building installation through the mains connection or through
other equipment with a connection to protective earthing - and to a cable distribution system using coaxial cable,

may in some circumstances create a re hazard. Connection to a cable distribution system has therefore to be

provided through a device providing electrical isolation below a certain frequency range (galvanic isolator, see EN
60728-11)”
