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

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

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.

y

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.
Do not install this product on a wall if it could be

y

exposed to oil or oil mist. This may damage the
product and cause it to fall.
If the TV feels cold to the touch, there may be a

y

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.

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.

effect than the youth. Do not sit closer to
the TV than the recommended distance.

Symptoms which require discontinuation or
refraining from watching 3D contents

Do not watch 3D contents when you feel

y

fatigue from lack of sleep, overwork or
drinking.
When these symptoms are experienced,

y

stop using/watching 3D contents and get
enough rest until the symptom subsides.

- Consult your doctor when the symptoms
persist. Symptoms may include headache,
eyeball pain, dizziness, nausea, palpitation,
blurriness, discomfort, double image,
visual inconvenience or fatigue.

Cautions when using the 3D glasses

Make sure to use LG 3D glasses.

y

Otherwise, you may not be able to view 3D
videos properly.
Do not use 3D glasses instead of your

y

normal glasses, sunglasses or protective
goggles.
Using modified 3D glasses may cause eye

y

strain or image distortion.
