Important Safety Precautions
Electrical energy can perform many useful functions, but it can also cause personal injuries
and property damage if improperly handled. This product has been engineered and manufactured with
the highest priority on safety. But IMPROPER USE CAN RESULT IN POTENTIAL ELECTRICAL
SHOCK OR FIRE HAZARD. In order to prevent potential danger, please observe the following
instructions when installing, operating and cleaning the product. To ensure your safety and
prolong the service life of your LCD TV product, please read the following precautions carefully
before using the product.
1. Read these instructions --- All operating instructions must be read and understood before
the product is operated.
2. Keep these instructions ---These safety and operating instructions must be kept in a safe place
for future reference.
3. Head all warnings --- All warnings on the product and in the instructions must be observed
closely.
4. Follow all instructions --- All operating instructions must be followed.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water --- for example, near a
bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet
basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like.
Do not use immediately after moving from a low temperature
to high temperature environment, as this causes condensation,
which may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
6. Clean only with dry cloth --- Unplug this product from the wall
outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol
cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
7. Ventilation --- Do not block any ventilation openings. Install
in accordance with the manufacturer instructions. The vents
and other openings in the cabinet are designed for ventilation.
Do not cover or block these vents and openings since
insufficient ventilation can cause overheating and/or shorten
the life of the product. Do not place the product on a bed, sofa,
rug or other similar surface, since they can block ventilation
openings. This product is not designed for built-in installation;
do not place the product in an enclosed place such as a
bookcase or rack, unless proper ventilation is provided or the
manufacturer's instructions are followed.
8. Heat sources --- Do not install near any heat sources such as
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9. Grounding or Polarisation --- Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarised or grounding-type
plug. A polarised 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.

Important Safety Precautions
12. Stand --- Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. Do not place
the product on an unstable trolley, stand, tripod or table. Placing the
product on an unstable base can cause the product to fall, resulting
in serious personal injuries as well as damage to the product. When
mounting the product on a wall, be sure to follow the manufacturer's
instructions. Use only the mounting hardware recommended by the
manufacturer.
13. Careful move --- When a cart is used, use caution when moving the
cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over. Sudden
stops, excessive force and uneven floor surfaces can cause the
product to fall from the trolley.
14. Lightning --- Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.
For added protection for this television equipment during a lightning
storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time,
unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna. This will
prevent damage to the equipment due to lightning and power-line
surges.
15. Servicing --- Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the
apparatus has been damaged in anyway, 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.
16. Replacement parts --- In case the product needs replacement parts, make sure that the service
person uses replacement parts specified by the manufacturer, or those with the same
characteristics and performance as the original parts. Use of unauthorised parts can result in fire,
electric shock and/or other danger.
17. Overloading --- Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or convenience receptacles on
other equipment as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
18. Entering of objects and liquids --- Never insert an object into the product through vents or
openings. High voltage flows in the product, and inserting an object can cause electric shock and/or
short internal parts. For the same reason, do not spill water or liquid on the product.
19. Damage requiring service --- If any of the following conditions occurs, unplug the power cord
from the AC outlet, and request a qualified service person to perform repairs.
a. When the power cord or plug is damaged.
b. When a liquid is spilled on the product or when objects have fallen into the product.
c. When the product has been exposed to rain or water.

Do not touch the controls other than those described in the operating instructions. Improper
adjustment of controls not described in the instructions can cause damage, which often requires
extensive adjustment work by a qualified technician.
e. If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged in anyway.
f. When the product displays an abnormal condition or exhibits a distinct change in performance.
Any noticeable abnormality in the product indicates that the product needs servicing.
20. Safety checks --- Upon completion of service or repair work, request the service technician to
perform safety checks to ensure that the product is in proper operating condition.
21. Wall or ceiling mounting --- When mounting the product on a wall or ceiling, be sure to install the
product according to the method recommended by the manufacturer. This is a safety feature.

Important Safety Precautions
22. Power source --- This product is intended to be supplied by a listed power supply indicated on the
marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your product dealer
or local power company. For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is left
unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the cable
system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power line surges. When the unit
has to be used with another power supply voltage, the power cable must be changed. Consult your
product dealer. The socket outlet should be installed near the equipment and easily accessible. Use
only the power cord designated by our dealer to ensure safety and EMC. When connecting other
products such as VCRs and personal computers, you should turn off the power of the unit for protection
against electric shock.
23. Panel protection --- The LCD panel used in this product is made of
glass. Therefore, it can break when the product is dropped or impacted
upon by other objects. Be careful not to be injured by broken glass pieces
in case the LCD panel breaks.
24. Pixel defect --- The LCD panel is a very high technology product, giving you finely detailed pictures.
Occasionally, a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green or red.
Please note that this does not affect the performance of your product.
If an outside antenna is connected to the television equipment, be
sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some
protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or
where it can collide with such power lines or circuits. When
installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be
taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits, as
contact with them might be fatal.

encountered symptom.
Symptoms
Ghost or double images
No power
No picture
Good picture but no sound
Good sound but poor colour
Poor picture
Check item
This may be caused by obstruction to the antenna due to high rise buildings
or hills. Using a highly directional antenna may improve the picture.
Check that the AC power cord is plugged into the mains socket.
Unplug the power cord, wait for 60 seconds. Then reinsert plug into
the mains socket and turn on the unit again.
Check antenna connections at the rear of the unit to see if it is properly
connected to the unit.
Possible broadcast station trouble. Try another channel.
Adjust the contrast and brightness settings.
Select a correct input.
Is a non-compatible signal being input?
Increase the VOLUME.
Check that the unit is not muted.
Check Whether the sound is output to headphone.
Adjust the contrast, colour and brightness settings.
Sometimes, poor picture quality occurs when having activated an S-VHS
camera or camcorder connected and having connected another peripheral
