NOTE

►TV► can be placed in standby mode in order to reduce the power consumption. And TV should be switched off using the power switch on the TV if it will not be watched for some time, as this will reduce energy consumption.

The energy consumed during use can be significantly reduced if the level of brightness of the picture is reduced, and this will reduce the overall running cost.

CAUTION

►Do► not step on the glass stand or subject it to any impact. It may break, causing possible injury from fragments of glass, or the TV may fall.

►Do► not drag the TV. The floor or the product may be damaged.

CAREFUL INSTALLATION ADVICE

■■ You should purchase necessary components to fix the TV safety and secure to the wall on the market.

■■ Position the TV close to the wall to avoid the possibility of it falling when pushed.

■■ The instructions shown below are a safer way to set up the TV, by fixing it to the wall, avoiding the possibility of it falling forwards if pulled. This will prevent the TV from falling forward and causing injury. This will also prevent the TV from damage. Ensure that children do not climb or hang from the TV.

■■The TV can be installed in various ways such as on a wall, or on a desktop etc.

■■The TV is designed to be mounted horizontally.

EARTHING

Ensure that you connect the earth wire to prevent possible electric shock. If grounding methods are not possible, have a qualified electrician install a separate circuit breaker.

Do not try to earth the TV by connecting it to telephone wires, lightening rods or gas pipes.

PowerSupply

Circuitbreaker

1Use the eye-bolts or TV brackets/bolts to fix the product to the wall as shown in the picture.

(If your TV has bolts in the eyebolts, loosen then bolts.)

* Insert the eye-bolts or TV brackets/bolts and tighten them securely in the upper holes.

2Secure the wall brackets with the bolts on the wall. Match the height of the bracket that is mounted on the wall.

3

3Use a sturdy rope to tie the product for alignment. It is safer to tie the rope so it becomes horizontal between the wall and the product.

NOTE

►When► moving the TV undo the cords first.

►Use► a platform or cabinet strong and large enough to support the size and weight of the TV.

►To► use the TV safely make sure that the height of the bracket on the wall and on the TV is the same.

WALL MOUNT: HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION

■■We recommend the use of a LG Brand wall mounting bracket when mounting the TV to a wall.

■■We recommend that you purchase a wall mounting bracket which supports VESA standard.

■■LG recommends that wall mounting be performed by a qualified professional installer.

NOTE

►Should► Install wall mount on a solid wall perpendicular to the floor.

►Should► use a special wall mount, if you want to install it to ceiling or slanted wall.

►The► surface that wall mount is to be mounted on should be of sufficient strength to support the weight of TV set; e.g. concrete, natural rock, brick and hollow block.

►Installing► screw type and length depends on the wall mount used. Further information, refer to the instructions included with the mount.

►LG► is not liable for any accidents or damage to property or TV due to incorrect installation:

-Where a non-compliant VESA wall mount is used.

-Incorrect fastening of screws to surface which may cause TV to fall and cause personal injury.

-Not following the recommended Installation method.

NOTE

►Avoid► keeping a fixed image on the set’s screen for prolonged periods of time. The fixed image may become permanently imprinted on the screen; use a screen saver when possible.

►There► may be interference relating to resolution, vertical pattern, contrast or brightness in PC mode. Change the PC mode to another resolution or change the refresh rate to another rate or adjust the brightness and contrast on the menu until the picture is clear. If the refresh rate of the PC graphic card can not be changed, change the PC graphic card or consult the manufacturer of the PC graphic card.

►The► synchronization input waveform for Horizontal and Vertical frequencies are separate.

►We► recommend using 1920x1080, 60 Hz for the PC mode, this should provide the best picture quality.

►Connect► the signal cable from the monitor output port of the PC to the RGB (PC) port of the TV or the signal cable from the HDMI output port of the PC to the HDMI IN (or HDMI/DVI IN) port on the TV.

►Connect► the audio cable from the PC to the Audio input on the TV. (Audio cables are not included with the TV).

►If► using a sound card, adjust PC sound as required.

►If► the graphic card on the PC does not output analogue and digital RGB simultaneously, connect only one of either RGB or HDMI IN (or HDMI/DVI IN) to display the PC output on the TV.

►If► the graphic card on the PC does output analogue and digital RGB simultaneously, set the TV to either RGB or HDMI; (the other mode is set to Plug and Play automatically by the TV.)

►DOS► mode may not work depending on the video card if you use an HDMI to DVI cable.

►If► you use too long an RGB-PC cable, there may be interference on the screen. We recommend using under 5m of cable. This provides the best picture quality.
