Cleaning Recommendations

Normally, light dusting with a dry, non-scratching duster will keep your TV clean. If cleaning beyond this is needed, please use the following guidelines:

First, turn off the TV and unplug the power cord from the power outlet.

Occasionally clean dust build-up from the air-intake grilles on the back and sides of the TV. Clean using a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment.

Top and Sides of the TV

Gently wipe down your TV with a soft, non-abrasive cloth such as cotton flannel, microfiber, or a clean cloth diaper, lightly moistened with water. Dry with a second dry, soft, non-abrasive cloth.

For oily dirt, add a few drops of mild liquid detergent, such as dishwashing detergent, to the water used to moisten the cloth. Rinse with a second cloth moistened only with water. Dry with a third dry, soft, non-abrasive cloth.

Screen

IMPORTANT

DO NOT apply any type of liquid to the surface of the TV screen.

Use only a soft, dry cloth to clean the LCD screen. Do not use any liquids.

Wipe the screen gently with an up and down motion.

Clean the entire screen evenly, not just sections of the screen.

General Cleaning Precautions

DO NOT allow liquid to enter the TV through the ventilation slots or any crevice.

DO NOT use any strong or abrasive cleaners, as these can scratch the surfaces.

DO NOT use any cleaners containing ammonia, bleach, alcohol, benzene, or thinners, as these can dull the surfaces.

DO NOT spray liquids or cleaners directly on the TV’s surfaces.

DO NOT scrub or rub the TV harshly. Wipe it gently.

E XAMP LE OF ANTE NNA GR OUNDING

retain for future reference. Always follow all warnings

 

and instructions marked on the television.

 

1)Read these instructions.

2)Keep these instructions.

3)Heed all warnings.

4)Follow all instructions.

5)Do not use this apparatus near water.

6)Clean only with dry cloth.

7)Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

8)Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

9)Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10)Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience

receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

11)Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

12)Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified

by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When

a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

13)Unplug this apparatus

during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

14)Refer all servicing to qualified 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.

Outdoor Antenna Grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TV, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.

Replacement Parts

When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.

If Your TV Gets Damaged

Crystalline liquid may leak from the LCD panel and broken glass may be scattered.

CAUTION: The crystalline liquid is toxic. Avoid contact with your skin, eyes, or mouth. DO NOT touch the broken glass or crystalline liquid. DO NOT get glass fragments or crystalline liquid into eyes or mouth. Should either contact your eyes or mouth, rinse the contacted area thoroughly with water and consult your doctor.

Disposal of Your TV

The LCD panel contains a small amount of crystalline liquid which is toxic and should not be touched.

DO NOT dispose of the TV with general household waste. For disposal or recycling information, contact your local authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance at www.eiae.org.
