Safety information

Warning

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover or
back. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer
servicing to qualified service personnel.

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose your
TV to rain or moisture.

Caution

To prevent electric shock, match the wide blade on the power
cord plug to the wide slot on an electric outlet. If the plug does
not fit, consult a licensed electrician to replace the obsolete
outlet. Do not modify the power cord plug, or you will defeat
this safety feature.

Warning

Your TV contains tin-lead solder and a fluorescent lamp
containing a small amount of mercury. Disposal of these
materials may be regulated for environmental reasons. For
disposal or recycling information, contact your local authorities
or the Electronic Industries Alliance at www.eia.org.

Read instructions

Read all of the safety and operating instructions
before you use your TV.

Retain instructions

Retain safety and operating instructions for
future reference.

Follow warnings and instructions

Follow all warnings on your TV and in the
operating instructions. Follow all operating and
use instructions.

This symbol indicates that dangerous
voltage constituting a risk of electric shock
is present within your TV. This label is
located on the back of your TV.

This symbol indicates that there are
important operating and maintenance
instructions in the literature accompanying
your TV.

Water and moisture

Do not use your TV near water. For example, do
not use it near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen
sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a
swimming pool.

Cleaning

Unplug your TV before cleaning. Do not use
liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use only a damp cloth
to clean the exterior of your TV.

Ventilation

Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back
or bottom are provided for ventilation, reliable
operation, and protection from overheating.
These openings must not be blocked or covered.
Do not block the openings by placing your TV on
a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Do not
place your TV near or over a radiator or heat
register. Do not place your TV in a built-in
installation, such as a bookcase or rack, unless
you provide correct ventilation or follow the
manufacturer’s instructions.

Heat

Make sure that your TV is located away from
heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,
stoves, or other products (including amplifiers)
that produce heat.

Grounding or polarization

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
grounding prong. The wide blade or grounding
prong are provided for your safety. If the plug
does not fit, contact an electrician to replace the
obsolete outlet.

Power cord protection

Route power cords so that they are not likely to
be walked on or pinched by items placed on or
against them. Pay particular attention to cords at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from your TV.

Attachments

Use only attachments recommended by Planar.

.

Stand

Do not place your TV on an unstable cart, stand,
tripod, bracket, or table. Your TV may fall,
causing serious personal injury and serious
damage to your TV. Use only with a cart, stand,
tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the
manufacturer, or sold with your TV. If you mount
your TV to the wall, follow the manufacturer’s
instructions and use a mounting accessory
recommended by the manufacturer. Your TV and
cart combination should be moved with care.
Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven
surfaces may cause your TV and cart
combination to overturn.

Lightning

For added protection for your TV’s receiver
during a lightning storm, or when it is left
unattended and unused for long periods of time,
unplug it from the power outlet and disconnect
the antenna or cable system. This helps prevent
damage to your TV from lightning and power line
surges.

Servicing

Do not attempt to service your TV yourself
because opening or removing covers may
expose you to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.

Replacement parts

When replacement parts are required, make
sure that the service technician uses
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer
that have the same characteristics as the
original part. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in fire, electric shock, personal injury, or
other hazards.

Overloading

Do not overload power outlets and extension
cords because this can result in a risk of fire or
electric shock.

Object and liquid entry

Never push objects of any kind into your TV
through openings because objects may touch
dangerous voltage points or short out parts that
could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill
liquid of any kind on your TV.

Damage requiring service

Unplug this TV from the power outlet and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel under
the following conditions:

• When the power supply cord or plug is
damaged or frayed.

• If liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into your TV.

• If your TV has been exposed to rain or
water.

• If your TV does not operate normally
by following the operating instructions.
Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions
because incorrect adjustment of other
controls may result in damage and will
often require extensive work by a
qualified technician to restore your TV
to its normal operation.

• If your TV has been dropped or
damaged in any way.

• When your TV exhibits a distinct
change in performance.

Replacement parts

When replacement parts are required, make
sure that the service technician uses
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer
that have the same characteristics as the
original part. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in fire, electric shock, personal injury, or
other hazards.

Safety check

After completing any service or repair to this TV,
ask the service technician to perform routine
safety checks to determine that your TV is in
correct operating condition.

Power source

Operate your TV only from the type of power
source indicated on the marking label. If you are
not sure of the type of power supplied to your
home, consult your TV dealer or local power
company.

Screen protection

Your TV’s screen is made of glass. Do not drop
your TV or hit the glass screen. If the screen
breaks, be careful of broken glass.

Pixel defect

Your TV’s screen is designed to display finely
detailed pictures. Occasionally, a few non-active
pixels may appear on the screen as fixed points
of blue, green, or red. This is not a defect and
does not affect your TV’s performance.

Outdoor antenna grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is
connected to your TV, make sure that the
antenna or cable system is grounded to provide
some protection against voltage surges and
built-up static charges. Article 810 of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70,
provides information with respect to correct
grounding of the mast and supporting structure,
grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna
discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,
location of the antenna-discharge unit,
connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.

Note to CATV system installer

This reminder is provided to call the CATV
system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of
the NEC that provides guidelines for correct
grounding and in particular, specifies that the
cable ground must be connected to the
grounding system of the building as close to the
point of cable entry as practical.

Mobile telephone warning

To avoid interference with your TV picture and
sound, operating problems, or even damage,
keep your mobile telephone away from the TV.
