dots are deactivated pixels and do not affect the performance and reliability of the TV. Generated Sound
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 upon the product. This generated sound does not affect 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 affect 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 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.
Preventing Image burn or Burn-in on
your TV screen
If a fixed image displays on the TV screen for a long
period of time, it will be imprinted and become a permanent disfigurement on the screen. This is image burn or burn-in and not covered by the warranty. If the aspect ratio of the TV is set to 4:3 for a long
period of time, image burn may occur on the letterboxed area of the screen.
Avoid displaying a fixed image on the TV screen
for a long period of time (2 or more hours for LCD, 1 or more hours for the Plasma TV) to prevent image burn. Preventing Screen Burn
Displaying still images, such as a station’s logo, subtitle, screen menu, video game or computer screen, for a long time may damage the screen, causing screen burn which can remain for a long time or never disappear. Do not display still images for over an hour.

Viewing 3D Imaging
WARNING
Viewing Environment
Viewing Time
-
When watching 3D contents, take five- to fifteen-minute breaks every hour. Viewing 3D contents for a long period of time may cause headache, dizziness, fatigue, or eye strain.
Those that have a photosensitive seizure or chronic illness
Some users may experience a seizure or other
abnormal symptoms when they are exposed to a flashing light or particular pattern from 3D contents. Do not watch 3D videos if you feel nausea, are
pregnant and/ or have a chronic illness such as epilepsy, cardiac disorder, or blood pressure disease, etc. 3D Contents are not recommended for those
who suffer from stereo blindness or stereo anomaly. Double images or discomfort in viewing may be experienced. If you have strabismus (cross-eyed), amblyopia
(weak eyesight), or astigmatism, you may have trouble sensing depth and easily feel fatigue due to double images. It is advised to take frequent breaks than the average adult. If your eyesight varies between your right
and left eye, correct your eyesight prior to watching 3D contents.
Symptoms which require discontinuation or refraining from watching 3D contents
Do not watch 3D contents when you feel
fatigue from lack of sleep, overwork or drinking. When these symptoms are experienced, 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, eyestrain, or fatigue.
CAUTION
Viewing Environment
Viewing Distance
-
Maintain a distance of at least twice the screen diagonal length when watching 3D contents. If you feel discomfort in viewing 3D contents, move further away from the TV.
Viewing Age
Infants / Children
- Usage/ Viewing 3D contents for children under the age of 5 is not recommended.
- Children under the age of 10 may overreact 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.
Teenagers
- Teenagers may be stimulated by light coming from 3D videos. Advise them not to watch 3D videos for a long time when they are tired.
Elderly
- The elderly may perceive less of a 3D effect than the youth. Do not sit closer to the TV than the recommended distance.
Cautions when using the 3D glasses
Make sure to use LG 3D glasses. Otherwise,
you may not be able to view 3D videos properly. Do not use 3D glasses instead of your normal
glasses, sunglasses, or protective goggles. Using modified 3D glasses may cause eye
strain or image distortion. Do not keep your 3D glasses in extremely high
or low temperatures. It will cause deformation. The 3D glasses are fragile and are easily
scratched. Always use a soft, clean piece of cloth when wiping the lenses. Do not scratch the lenses of the 3D glasses with sharp objects or clean/wipe them with chemicals.
