KENSINGTON SECURITY SYSTEM

■

This feature is not available for all models.

- The TV is equipped with a Kensington Security System connector on the back panel. Connect the Kensington Security System cable as shown below.

- For the detailed installation and use of the Kensington Security

System, refer to the user’s guide provided with the Kensington Security System.

For further information, contact

http://www.kensington.com

, the internet homepage of the Kensington company. Kensington sells security systems for expensive electronic equipment such as notebook PCs and LCD projectors.

NOTE: The Kensington Security System is an optional accessory.

SWIVEL STAND

After installing the TV, you can adjust the TV set manually to the left or right direction by 20 degrees to suit your viewing position.

For proper ventilation, allow a clearance of 4 inches on all four sides from the wall.

■

Image shown may differ from your TV.

4 inches

Ensure adequate ventilation by following the clearance recommendations.

Do not mount near or above any type of heat source.

CAUTION

4 inches

We recommend that you set up the TV close to a wall so it cannot fall over if pushed backwards. Additionally, we recommend that the TV be attached to a wall so it cannot be pulled in a forward direction,

potentially causing injury or damaging the product. Caution: Please make sure that children don’t climb on or hang from the TV.

■

Insert the eye-bolts (or TV brackets and bolts) to tighten the product to the wall as shown in the picture.

*If your product has the bolts in the eye-bolts position before inserting the eye-bolts, loosen the bolts. * Insert the eye-bolts or TV brackets/bolts and tighten them securely in the upper holes.

Secure the wall brackets with the bolts (sold separately) to the wall. Match the height of the bracket that is mounted on the wall to the holes in the product.

Ensure the eye-bolts or brackets are tightened securely.

■

Use a sturdy rope (sold separately) to tie the product. It is safer to tie the rope so it becomes horizontal between the wall and the product.

■

You should purchase necessary components to prevent the TV from tipping over (when not using a wall mount).

■

Image shown may differ from your TV.

Use a platform or cabinet strong enough 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 the one on the TV are the same.

Depending on the graphics card, DOS mode may not work if a HDMI to DVI Cable is in use.

In PC mode, there may be noise associated with the resolution, vertical pattern, contrast or brightness. If noise is present, change the PC output to another resolution, change the refresh rate to another rate or adjust the brightness and contrast on the PICTURE menu until the picture is clear.

Avoid keeping a fixed image on the screen for a long period of time. The fixed image may become permanently imprinted on the screen.

The synchronization input form for Horizontal and Vertical frequencies is separate.

Depending on the graphics card, some resolution settings may not allow the image to be positioned on the screen properly.

If there are overscan in HDMI-PC 1920x1080, change aspect ratio to
