Safety precautions

Damage

Servicing

Unstable surface and shocks

Turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet immediately if the TV set begins to make any unusual noises or gives off smoke or an unusual smell. Then call your dealer for service.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the back of the cabinet. This TV set contains dangerous voltage.

Do not place this TV set on an unstable cart, stand, shelf, or table. The TV set may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the set.

Sharp recommends securing the TV set to a stable surface or wall to prevent the set from falling due to sudden shocks or impact.

Liquid entry

Object entry

Water

Do not place a flower vase or anything else containing liquid on the TV set, as liquid spilt on the TV set can cause electrical shock or failure.

Never insert or drop any metallic or inflammable objects into the ventilation openings of the TV set, as this can cause fire, electrical shock, or electrical failure.

To prevent fire or electrical shock, do not place the TV set near a bathroom, swimming pool or other area where it may become wet.

Power cord protection

Ventilation

TV set position

To prevent electrical shock, do not subject the AC power cord to damage by bending or twisting it, or by placing heavy items on top of it and do not place the AC power cord under the TV set. If the AC power cord becomes damaged, unplug it from the wall outlet immediately and call your dealer for service.

Do not place this TV set in a confined area, such as on a bookshelf or in a builtin case. Leave adequate space behind the TV for proper ventilation.

Do place the TV set onto an even stand, table or rack which size is bigger than the TV set. If the TV set is put onto a smaller size or uneven stand, table or rack may cause the TV cabinet to distort. Do not put or insert anything between TV set and the stand, table or rack.

Fire prevention

TV set and cart combination

To prevent fire, never place any type of candle or naked flames on the top or near the TV set.

Television equipment and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the equipment and cart combination to overturn.
