IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Water and Moisture -- Do not use this product near water - for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub; in a wet basement; or near a swimming pool; and the like.

• 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. 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.

• Selecting the location -- Select a place with no direct sunlight and good ventilation.

• Ventilation -- The vents and other openings in the cabinet are designed for ventilation. Do not cover or block these vents and openings since 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 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.

• The Liquid Crystal panel used inthis product is made of glass. Therefore, it can break when the product is dropped or applied with impact. Be careful not to be injured by broken glass pieces in case the panel breaks.

• Heat -- The product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

• The Liquid Crystal panel is a very high technology product with 1,049,088 pixels (LC-19LS410UT)

/ 2,073,600 pixels (LC-22LS510UT/LC-32LS510UT), giving you fine picture details. Occasionally,

a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green or red. Please note that this does not affect the performance of your product.

• Lightning -- For added protection for this television equipment during a lightning storm, or

when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and

disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage to the equipment due to lightning and power- line surges.

• Power Lines -- An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from

touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

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

• To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place the AC cord under the TV set or other heavy items.

• Do not display a still picture for a long time, as this could cause an afterimage to remain.

• To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this product to dripping or splashing. No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, should be placed on the product.

• Do not insert foreign objects into the product. Inserting objects in the air

vents or other openings may result in fire or electric shock. Exercise special

caution when using the product around children.

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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new product, _lease keep these safety tips

in mind:

THE ISSUE

• The home theater entertainment experience _sa growing trend and larger flat panel displays are popular purchases. However, flat panel displays are

not always supported on the proper stands or installed according to the manufacturer's recommendations.

• Flat panel displays that are inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers, chests or carts may fall over and cause injury.

THIS MANUFACTURER CARES!

• The consumer electronics industry is committed to making home entertainment enjoyable and safe.

TUNE INTO SAFETY

• One size does NOT fit all. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for the safe installation and use of your flat panel display.

• Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for proper use of this

product.

• Don't allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television sets.

• Don't place flat panel displays on furniture that can easily be used as steps,

such as a chest of drawers.

• Remember that children can become excited while watching a program,

especially on a "larger than life" flat panel display. Care should be taken

to place or install the display where it cannot be pushed, pulled over, or

knocked down.

• Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the flat

panel display so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children.

(

WALL MOUNTING: IF YOU DECIDE TO WALL MOUNT YOUR FLAT PANEL DISPLAY, ALWAYS:

• Use a mount that has been recommended by the display manufacturer and/or listed by an

independent laboratory (such as UL, CSA, ETL).

• Follow all instructions supplied by the display and wall mount manufacturers.

• If you have any doubts about your ability to safely install your flat panel display, contact your retailer

about professional installation.

• Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the display isappropriate. Some wall mounts are not

designed to be mounted to walls with steel studs or old cinder block construction. If you are unsure, contact a professional installer.

• A minimum of two people are required for installation. Flat panel displays can be heavy.

Preparation

To enjoy a clearer picture, use an outdoor antenna. The following is a brief explanation of the types of connections that are used for a coaxial cable. If your outdoor antenna uses

a 75-ohm coaxial cable with an F-type connector, plug it into the antenna terminal at the rear of the TV set.

A 75-ohm system is generally a round

cable with F-type connector that can easily be attached to a terminal without

tools (Commercially available).

A 300-ohm system is a flat "twin-lead"

cable that can be attached to a 75-ohm

terminal through a 300/75-ohm adapter

(Commercially available).

Preparation

Ifthe remote control fails to operate TV functions, replace the batteries in the remote

control unit.

1 Open the battery cover. 3 Close the battery cover.

Insert two "AA" size batteries (supplied

with the product).

Place the batteries with their terminals corresponding to the ( + ) and (- )

indications in the battery compartment.

Improper use of batteries can result in chemical leakage or explosion. Be sure to follow

the instructions below.

• Do not mix batteries of different types. Different types of batteries have different characteristics.

• Do not mix old and new batteries. Mixing old and new batteries can shorten the life of

new batteries or cause chemical leakage in old batteries.

• Remove batteries as soon as they are worn out. Chemicals that leak from batteries come in contact with skin can cause a rash. If you find any chemical leakage, wipe thoroughly with a cloth.

• The batteries supplied with this product may have a shorter life expectancy due to storage conditions.

• If you will not be using the remote control unit for an extended period of time, remove

batteries from it.

• The batteries (batteries installed) shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.
