Precautions For Daily Use
Observe the following items
Maintenance of the cabinet
• When cleaning the cabinet, use a soft cloth (made of cotton, fl oss, etc.) to clean gently.
Do not use a dry or damp rag mixed with chemicals, as this could cause the ingredients of the cabinet body to deteriorate
or crack.
• Be careful not to use an abrasive cloth for cleaning or clean with excessive force, as this could scratch the surface of the
cabinet.
• If the cabinet is greatly soiled, clean with a soft cloth (made of cotton, fl oss, etc.) soaked with a small amount of diluted
neutral detergent and wrung out, and then clean with a soft dry cloth.
• Because the cabinet is made of plastic, solvents such as benzene or thinner could cause it to deteriorate, or make its
coating come off. Therefore do not use such solvents to clean the cabinet.
• Because plasticizer is included in the plastics, deterioration or the coating peeling off could occur when the cabinet comes
into contact with some substances. Therefore keep it away from volatile substances such as insecticide. In addition, do not
let it come into contact with objects made of rubber, resin, etc. for a long time.
Maintenance of the LCD panel
• Before cleaning the LCD panel, be sure to turn off the TV set and unplug the power cord from the outlet.
• When cleaning the LCD panel, use a dry and soft cloth (made of cotton, fl oss, etc.) to clean the surface of the LCD panel
gently. For protecting the LCD panel, do not clean with a dirty cloth, detergent, or a dry or damp rag mixed with chemicals,
as this could cause peeling of the panel surface.
• Be careful not to clean with an abrasive cloth or with excessive force, as this could cause the panel surface to be scratched.
• If the LCD panel is greatly soiled, clean it gently with a soft cloth (made of cotton, fl oss, etc.) soaked with a small amount of
water (Do not clean with excessive force, so as to avoid the scratch of the panel surface).
• If dust sticks on the surface of the LCD panel, clean the panel with a commercially available cleaning brush (anti-static
brush).

Important Safety Precautions
Caring for the cabinet
• Use a soft cloth (cotton, fl annel, etc.) and gently wipe the surface of
the cabinet.
• Using a chemical cloth (wet/dry sheet type cloth, etc.) may deform
the components of the main unit cabinet or cause cracking.
• Wiping with a hard cloth or using strong force may scratch the
surface of the cabinet.
• If the cabinet is very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth (cotton, fl annel, etc.)
soaked in neutral detergent diluted with water and thoroughly wrung
out, and then wipe with a soft dry cloth.
• The cabinet is primarily made of plastic. Avoid using benzene, thinner,
and other solvents, as these may deform the cabinet and cause the
paint to peel off.
• Do not apply insecticides or other volatile liquids.
Also, do not allow the cabinet to remain in contact with rubber or
vinyl products for a long period of time. Plasticizers inside the plastic
may cause the cabinet to deform and cause the paint to peel off.
Caring for the front panel
• Turn off the main power and unplug the AC
cord from the wall outlet before handling.
• Gently wipe the surface of the front panel with
a soft cloth (cotton, fl annel, etc.).
To protect the front panel, do not use a dirty
cloth, liquid cleaners, or a chemical cloth
(wet/dry sheet type cloth, etc.). This may
damage the surface of the front panel.
• Wiping with a hard cloth or using strong force
may scratch the surface of the front panel.
• Use a soft damp cloth to gently wipe the front
panel when it is really dirty.
(It may scratch the surface of the front panel
when wiped strongly.)
• If the front panel is dusty, use an anti-static
brush, which is commercially available, to
clean it.
Water and moisture — Do not use the
•
product near water, such as bathtub,
washbasin, kitchen sink, laundry tub,
swimming pool and in a wet basement.
• Do not place vases or any other water-fi lled
containers on this product.
The water may spill onto the product causing
fi re or electric shock.
• Stand — Do not place the product on an
unstable cart, stand, tripod or table. Doing
so can cause the product to fall, resulting in
serious personal injuries as well as damage
to the product. Use only a cart, stand,
tripod, bracket or table recommended by the
manufacturer or sold with the product. When
mounting the product on a wall, be sure to
follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Use
only the mounting hardware recommended
by the manufacturer.
• When relocating the product placed on a
cart, it must be moved with utmost care.
Sudden stops, excessive force and uneven
fl oor surface can cause the product to fall
from the cart.
• In case the product is dropped and the
cabinet is damaged, be sure to turn off the
power of the product, and unplug the power
cord. If you continue to use the product, it
may cause fi re or electric shock. Contact your
dealer.
• Do not open the rear cover of the cabinet
to reconstruct the circuits. There exists high
voltage within the cabinet and it may cause
electric shock and injury. If maintenance is
required, contact your dealer.
• The LCD panel used in this product is
made of glass. Therefore, it can break
when the product is struck forcefully or with
a sharp object. If the LCD panel is broken,
be careful not to be injured by broken
glass.
• Heat sources — Keep the product away
from heat sources such as radiators,
heaters, stoves and other heat-generating
products (including amplifi ers)
• To prevent fi re, never place any type of
candle or naked fl ames on the top or near
the TV set.
• To prevent fi re or shock hazard, do not place
the AC power cord under the TV set or other
heavy items.
• Do not place heavy objects on this
product or stand on it. Doing so
could cause injury if the product
overturns. Take special care near
children and pets.
• Unplug the power cord before you move
the TV set. If not unplugged beforehand,
the power cord may become damaged
and cause electric shock.
The LCD panel is a very high technology product with
2,073,600 pixels, giving you fi ne picture details.
Due to the very large number of pixels, occasionally a few nonactive pixels may appear on the screen as a fi xed point of blue,
green or red.
This is within product specifi cations and does not constitute a fault.
Precautions when transporting the TV
• When transporting the TV, never carry it by
holding or otherwise putting pressure onto the
display.
Be sure to always carry the TV by two
people holding it with two hands — one
hand on each side of the TV.
• Ventilation — The vents and other openings
in the cabinet are designed for ventilation. Do
not cover or block these vents and openings
since insuffi cient 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
is not designed for built-in installation; do
not place the product in an enclosed place
such as a bookcase or rack, unless proper
ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s
instructions are followed.
• Do not display a still picture for a long time, as this could cause an
afterimage to remain.
• Install the product on the place where the AC cord can be unplugged
easily from the AC outlet, or from the AC INPUT terminal on the rear
of the product.
NOTE
• The above are pictures for reference only; the actual item might be
different.
