Pixel characteristics
This LCD product has a high number of
color pixels. Although it has effective pixels of
99.999% or more, black dots or bright points of
light (red, green or blue) may appear constantly
on the screen. This is a structural property of
the display (within common industry standards)
and is not a malfunction.

Risk of injury or damage to the TV!
Two people are required to lift and carry
•
a TV that weighs more than 25kg.
•
If the TV is transported in temperatures
below 5°C, unpack the TV and wait
until the TV temperature matches room
temperature before connecting the TV to
the power outlet.
•
Before you connect the TV to the power
outlet, ensure that the power voltage
matches the value printed on the back
of the TV. Never connect the TV to the
power outlet if the voltage is different.
•
When stand mounting the TV, use only
the supplied stand. Secure the stand to
the TV tightly. Place the TV on a at, level
surface that can support the combined
