1 Important Considerations to Follow
Polaroid. Add a little colour to your life.
Since 1937, people have turned to Polaroid for their photography needs. Today, families look to Polaroid for consumer electronics that define the digital age: plasma and LCD TVs, portable and standard DVD players, digital cameras, personal media players,
and so much more. And while our selection has changed, you will still receive the same friendly, helpful service that made Polaroid an icon. Congratulations on your new Polaroid TV purchase. To ensure your new TV provides you with years of enjoyment, please read this guide carefully.
The LCD panels are produced with state-of-the-art technology. However, there may be missing or lit spots on the screen under certain circumstances. That does not mean that the product is faulty.
1.1 Cleaning the screen and cabinet...
After powering off, wipe the screen and the cabinet clean with a soft and dry cloth. We recommend that you do not use patented polishes or solvents on the screen or cabinet since they may cause damage.
1.2 Disposing of your TV at the end of service life...
The cold cathode fluorescent lamp found in your LCD screen contains a very small amount of mercury. Once your TV set has completed its physical life, please dispose of it in accordance with local government regulations or leave it at a recycling centre.
This product contains electrical or electronic materials. The presence of 
these materials may, if not disposed of properly, have potential adverse effects on the environment and human health. Presence of this label on 
the product means it should not be disposed of as unsorted waste and must be collected separately. As a consumer, you are responsible for 
ensuring that this product is disposed of properly. To find out how to properly dispose of this product, please go to www.polaroid.com and click on “Company“ or call the customer service number for your country listed 
in the instruction manual.

3 Important Safety Instructions
This symbol is used to warn the user about the “dangerous voltage” contained inside the housing of the product that may create a risk of electrical shock.
This symbol is used to remind the user important usage and service instructions supplied with the device.
1)Please READ the operating instructions
before using the device
for the first time. 2) Please observe the
instructions contained in the Operating Instructions.
3)Please consider all warnings.
4)MAKE SURE that all
power connections
(network communication, 
extension cables and the 
connections between 
the device components)
have been made properly and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Before making or changing the connections, power off the device and unplug the mains connection plug.
5)If you have any doubts regarding the installation, operation or safety of the device, please REFER to the vendor.
6)BE CAREFUL with glass panels and covers on the device. The screen glass may break and cause serious injuries if something hits it.
7)To ensure adequate ventilation,
please leave a clearance area of at least 10 cm around the television. This clearance prevents the TV from overheating and consequently causing damage.
•Using the device in dusty environments should also be avoided.
•Never block the slots and openings by placing the TV on a bed, sofa, pillow or other similar surfaces.
•Never install the TV into closed places such as bookcases or cabinets unless adequate ventilation is provided.
8)DO NOT COVER the ventilation openings of the device with items such as newspapers, table-clothes, curtains, etc. Overheating causes damage and shortens the service life
of the device.
9) Your TV may be damaged 
if you place it under 
direct sunshine or
close to a heater. Please abstain from using the product in very hot or
humid locations or in places where the temperature is likely to decrease below
5°C (41°F). DO NOT
PLACE on or near the device any hot objects
or items with open flame such as candles or any night lamps. The high
temperature can melt plastic parts and cause a fire.
3 I k
10) Never operate
electrical devices close to water. Operating such devices, for example,
neara bathtub, washbasin, kitchen washbasin, washing basin, wet basement, swimming pool can cause fire or electric shock.
•Do not allow your TV to get wet. Never
pour any liquids onto the TV. Do not operate your TV if any
solid or liquid substance enters into it. This can cause electric shock and your TV may be damaged. Have it checked immediately by qualified personnel.
• Keep open flame sources (such as candles) away from
TV in order to avoid risk of fire.
11)DO NOT USE headphones at extremely
high volume levels
since this may cause permanent loss of hearing.
12) Operate your TV only in
the 230 V 50Hz voltage range. Use the AC power cable supplied with the product. If your
TV is a grounded (Class I) product, then it must certainly be connected to a grounded socket.
•The socket into which you plug in the AC power cable or the adaptor must be within easy reach.
•Turn off your device with the ON/OFF button and then unplug it in order to disconnect it from mains.
Note: If your device has an adaptor, then use the adaptor and AC power cable supplied with your product. Do not use defective sockets. Make sure
that the plug is firmly inserted into the socket. If the plug remains loose, then it can cause fire due to arching. Refer to an electrician to have your socket replaced.
13)Make sure that the power cable is not stepped on and that there is no bending at the plug
sections, plug heads and
device output point.
14) Use only the add-ons/ accessories specified by the manufacturer.
15)Use only together with the carts, bases, tripods, brackets or stands
specified by the 
manufacturer or sold along 
with the product. When 
using a cart, pay attention 
that it won’t overturn while 
carrying the cart/device
combination and cause injuries. The device must be fixed to the floor or wall as indicated in the
installation instructions in order to avoid any possible damages. Place your device on a level surface.
16)Unplug the power cable during thunderstorms or when you will not use your device for a long
period of time.
17) Consult authorized service personnel for service requirements.
Never attempt to
repair the device 
yourself. Opening the 
cabinet can expose 
you to dangerous 
voltages or other hazardous situations.
Service is required in situations such as damage to the power cable of the device or its plug, water spills or
substances falling into the device, the device is subjected to rain or moisture, it does not operate normally or it is dropped.
