the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution
when moving the cart/apparatus combination to
avoid injury from tip-over.
• Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or
when unused for long periods of time.
• Refer all servicing to qualied 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 been exposed to rain or moisture, does not
operate normally, or has been dropped.
• Do not press strongly upon the panel with a hand
or a sharp object such as a nail, pencil, or pen, or
make a scratch on it.
• Do not stick metal objects or any other conductive
material into the power cord. Do not touch the end
of the power cord while it is plugged in.
• Keep the packing anti-moisture material or vinyl
packing out of the reach of children. Anti-moisture
material is harmful if swallowed. If swallowed,
induce vomiting and go to the nearest hospital.
Additionally, vinyl packing can cause suocation.
Keep it out of the reach of children.
• CAUTION concerning the Power Cord
(Can dier by country):
Check the specication page of this owner’s
manual to be certain concerning current
requirements. Do not connect too many devices
to the same AC power outlet as this could result in
re 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 re. Periodically examine the cord of your
device, and if its appearance indicates damage
or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the
device, 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 t
wisted, kinked, pinched, closed in
a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention
to plugs, wall outlets, and the point where the
cord exits the device. Do not move 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 re 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 near ammable
objects such as gasoline or candles, or expose the
TV to direct air conditioning.
• Do not expose to dripping or splashing and do
not place objects lled with liquids, such as vases,
cups, etc. on or over the apparatus (e.g., on shelves
above the unit).

electrical appliance. It has been designed in such a
way that it does not require a safety connection to
electrical earth.

• Grounding
- (Except for devices which are not grounded.)
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 qualied electrician install a separate circuit
breaker. Do not try to ground the unit by
connecting it to telephone wires, lightning
rods, or gas pipes.

• As long as this unit is connected to the AC wall
outlet, it is not disconnected from the AC power
source even if the unit is turned o.
• Do not attempt to modify this product in any
way without written authorization from LG
Electronics. Unauthorized modication could
void the user’s authority to operate this product.
• Outdoor Antenna Grounding
- (Can dier by country):
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 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.

CAUTION
Do not use any unapproved items to ensure the
safety and product’s lifespan.
Any damages or injuries by using unapproved
items are not covered by the warranty.
Some models appear to have a thin lm on the
screen. It is actually part of the screen; do not
remove it.
The battery (battery or batteries or battery pack)
shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as
sunshine, re or the like.
•
• Do not short circuit, disassemble, or allow the
batteries to overheat.

ENGLISH
• Do not use high voltage electrical equipment
near the TV, (e.g., a bug zapper).
This may result in product malfunction.
• Dot Defect
- The panel is a high technology product with
resolution of two million to six million pixels. In
a very few cases, you could see ne dots on the
screen while you’re viewing the TV. Those dots
are deactivated pixels and do not aect the
performance and reliability of the TV.
• Generated Sound
- Cracking noise A cracking noise that occurs
when watching or turning o 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 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 aect the
performance and reliability of the product.
• Take care not to touch the ventilation openings.
When watching the TV for a long period, the
ventilation openings may become hot. This does
not aect the performance of the product or
cause defects in the product.
• Do not install this product on a wall if it could be
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 small icker 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 eect on the TV’s
performance. Avoid touching the LCD screen or
holding your nger(s) against it for long periods
of time. Doing so may produce some temporary
distortion eects on the screen.
• Displaying a still image for a prolonged time may
cause image sticking. Avoid displaying a xed
image on the TV screen for a long period of time.
Do not remove the panel with your ngers or
any tools. Doing so may damage the product.
When attaching the stand to the TV set, place
the screen facing down on a cushioned table or
at surface to protect the screen from scratches.
Make sure that the screws are fastened tightly.
(If they are not fastened securely enough, the TV
may tilt forward after being installed.)
Do not fasten the screws with excessive force;
otherwise, they may be worn out and become
loose.
Make sure to wring any excess water or cleaner
from the cloth.
Do not spray water or cleaner directly onto the
TV screen.
Make sure to spray just enough of water or
cleaner onto a dry cloth to wipe the screen.
When cleaning the product, be careful not to
allow any liquid or foreign objects to enter the
gap between the upper, left or right side of the
panel and the guide panel.

Mounting on a Wall
An optional wall mount can be used with your
LG Television. Consult with your local dealer for
a wall mount that supports the VESA standard
used by your TV model. Carefully attach the wall
mount bracket at the rear of the TV. Install the wall
mount bracket on a solid wall perpendicular to the
oor. If you are attaching the TV to other building
materials, please contact qualied personnel to
install the wall mount. Detailed instructions will
be included with the wall mount. We recommend
that you use an LG brand wall mount. The LG wall
mount is easy to adjust or to connect the cables.
When you do not use LG’s wall mount bracket,
use a wall mount bracket where the device is
adequately secured to the wall with enough space
to allow connectivity to external devices. If you are
using a non-adjustable mount, attach the mount
to the wall. Attach the cables to the TV rst, then
attach the TV to the mount.
