Warning
Do not leave any stationary images, patterns, PIP windows, or letterbox images on the screen for an extended period of time as this may result in permanent damage to the LCD panel. This type of damage is not covered under warranty. The following are examples of, but not limited to, potentially hazardous display output: side bar images, video game patterns, closed captioning, channel logos, and letterbox black bars. To prevent this type of damage, display constant moving images that fill the screen as often as possible. According to industrial standards for LCD display technology, there are a certain number of allowable defective pixels. Although we produce panels with more than 99.9 percent active cells, there still may be some cells that do not produce light or remain constantly lit. For further information, please contact your supplier.
Safety Precautions
Read and follow all instructions carefully.
1. Water and moisture: Do not use the product near water or areas of high moisture.
2. Cleaning: Unplug the power cord from the AC outlet before cleaning the product. Use a damp cloth to clean the product. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
3. Ventilation: The vents and other openings in the cabinet are designed for ventilation. Do not cover or block these vents and openings as 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 was not designed to operate in an enclosed environment. Do not place the product in an enclosed space such as a bookcase or rack, unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions are followed.
4. Heat sources: Keep the product away from heat sources such as radiators, heaters, stoves and other heat-generating products (including amplifiers).
5. Stand: Do not place the product on an unstable cart, 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. Only use a cart, stand, tripod, and bracket or table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the product. Only use mounting hardware recommended by the dealer.
6. For added protection during a lightning storm or for extended periods of non-use, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna (if used). This will prevent damage to the product due to power line surges.
7. During the LCD panel lifespan it is normal for a few pixels to become defective. Non-active pixels may appear on the screen as fixed points of red, blue or green. Refer pixel policy questions to your dealer for further clarification on acceptable loss.
