Caution

■When cleaning the TV, remove the mains plug

•Cleaning an energized TV may cause electrical shock.

■When the TV is not going to be used for a long period of time, remove the mains plug

•This TV will still consume some power even in the Off mode, as long as the mains plug is still connected to a live socket outlet.

■Transport only in upright position

•Transporting the TV with its display panel facing upward or downward may cause damage to the internal circuitry.

■Allow sufficient space around the TV for radiated heat

Minimum distance

	10
10	10	7

(cm)

•When using the pedestal, keep the space between the bottom of the TV and the floor surface.

•In case of using Wall-hanging bracket, follow the manual of it.

■Do not block the rear air vents

•Blocked ventilation by newspapers, table cloths, curtains, etc. may cause overheating, fire or electrical shock.

■Do not expose your ears to excessive volume from the headphones

•Irreversible damage can be caused.

Notes

Do not display a still picture for a long time

This causes the image to remain on the plasma screen (“image retention”).

This is not considered a malfunction and is not covered by the warranty.

Typical still images

•Programme number and other logos

•Image displayed in “4:3” mode

•Video game

•Computer image

To prevent image retention, contrast is lowered automatically after a few minutes if no signals are sent or no operations are performed. (p. 49)

■Auto power standby function

•If no signal is received and no operation is performed in Analogue TV mode for 30 minutes, the TV will automatically go to standby mode.

■Keep the TV away from these types of equipment

•Electronic equipment

In particular, do not place video equipment near the TV (electromagnetic interference may distort images / sound).

•Equipment with an infrared sensor

This TV also emits infrared rays (this may affect operation of other equipment).

Maintenance

First, remove the mains plug from the socket outlet.

Display panel

Regular care: Gently wipe the surface clean of dirt by using a soft cloth.

Major contamination: Wipe the surface clean using a soft cloth dampened with clean water or diluted neutral detergent (1 part detergent to 100 parts water). Then, using a soft dry cloth, evenly wipe the surface clean until it is dry.

Caution

•The surface of the display panel has been specially treated and may be easily damaged. Do not tap or scratch the surface with your fingernail or other hard object.

•Take care not to subject the surface to insect repellent, solvent, thinner, or other volatile substances (this may degrade surface quality).

Cabinet, Pedestal

Regular care: Wipe the surface clean using a soft dry cloth.

Major contamination: Dampen a soft cloth with clean water or water containing a small amount of neutral detergent. Then, wring the cloth and wipe the surface clean with it. Finally, wipe the surface clean with a dry cloth.

Caution

•Take care not to subject the TV's surfaces to detergent. (A liquid inside the TV could lead to product failure.)

•Take care not to subject surfaces to insect repellent, solvent, thinner, or other volatile substances (this may deteriorate the surface by peeling the paint).

•Do not allow the cabinet and pedestal to make contact with a rubber or PVC substance for a long time.
