a thunder or lighting storm.
When mounting a TV on the wall, make sure
not to install the TV by the hanging power and
signal cables on the back of the TV.
Do not allow an impact shock or any objects to
fall into the product, and do not drop onto the
screen with something.
CAUTION concerning the Power Cord:
It is recommend that appliances 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 connect too many appliances to the
same AC power outlet as this could result in
fire or electric shock.
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.
Do not make the TV with the power cord
plugged in. Do not use a damaged or loose
power cord. Be sure do grasp the plug when
unplugging the power cord. Do not pull on the
power cord to unplug the TV.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire or electrical
shock, do not expose this product to rain,
moisture or other liquids. Do not touch the TV
with wet hands. Do not install this product

not place objects filled with liquids, such as
vases, cups, etc. on or over the apparatus (e.g.
on shelves above the unit).
GGRROOUUNNDDIINN GG
Ensure that you connect the earth ground wire
to prevent possible electric shock (i.e. a TV
with a three-prong grounded AC plug must be
connected to a three-prong grounded AC outlet). If grounding 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.

If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the
precautions below. An outdoor antenna system
should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or
power circuits, or where it can come in contact
with such power lines or circuits as death or
serious injury can occur.
Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as
to provide some protection against voltage
surges and built-up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electrical Code
(NEC) in the U.S.A. provides information with
respect to proper grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in
wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of
grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and requirements for the grounding
electrode.

screen, appearing as tiny red, green, or blue
spots. However, they have no adverse effect on
the monitor's performance.

FEATURE OF THIS TV
■
When a fixed image (e.g. logos, screen menus, video game, and computer display) is displayed on the TV
for an extended period, it can become permanently imprinted on the screen. This phenomenon is known
as “image burn” or “burn-in.” Image burn is not covered under the manufacturer’s warranty.
■
In order to prevent image burn, avoid displaying a fixed image on your TV screen for a prolonged period
(2 or more hours for LCD, 1 or more hours for Plasma TV).
■
Image burn can also occur on the letterboxed
areas of your TV if you use the 4:3 aspect
ratio setting for an extended period.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO PREVENT “IMAGE BURN
/ BURN-IN” ON YOUR TV SCREEN
The AV Mode optimizes the picture into Cinema,
Sports, and game Mode according to the video and
audio content. The viewer has the ability to quickly
choose the correct mode for the picture they are
viewing.
Displays HDTV programs in full 1920 x 1080p resolution for a more detailed picture.
Automatically enhances and amplifies the sound of
human voice frequency range to help keep dialogue
audible when background noise swells.
LG TV include a unique invisible speaker system,
tuned by renowned audio expert, Mr. Mark Levinson.
Speakers are embedded in strategic spots behind the
front cabinet and use minute vibrations to turn the
entire front bezel into the speaker system. The result
is a clean, polished look, and enhanced audio by
increasing the “sweet spot”, giving a wider and richer
sound field.
