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 in this 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 2,073,600 pixels, •
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. •

Caring for the Cabinet
Use a soft cloth (cotton, flannel, 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, flannel, 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 Liquid Crystal panel
Turn off the main power and unplug the AC cord from the wall outlet before handling.•
Gently wipe the surface of the display panel with a soft cloth (cotton, flannel, etc.). •
To protect the display 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 display panel.
Wiping with a hard cloth or using strong force may scratch the surface •
of the display panel.
Use a soft damp cloth to gently wipe the display panel when it is really •
dirty. (It may scratch the surface of the display panel when wiped
strongly.)
If the display panel is dusty, use an anti-static brush, which is commercially available, to clean it.•

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CHILD SAFETY
It Makes A Difference How and Where You Use Your Flat Panel Display
Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new product, please keep these safety tips
in mind:
THE ISSUE
The home theater entertainment experience is a 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 is appropriate. 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.•

Antennas
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 1.
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” 2.
cable that can be attached to a 75-ohm
terminal through a 300/75-ohm adapter
(Commercially available).
When connecting the RF cable to the TV set,
do not tighten F-type connector with tools.
If tools are used, it may cause damage to
your TV set. (The breaking of internal circuit,
etc.)
Connecting Antenna
Connect the antenna cable to the TV using one of the methods in the illustration as •
shown (,, or ).

Installing Batteries in the Remote Control Unit
If the remote control fails to operate TV functions, replace the batteries in the remote
control unit.
1 Open the battery cover.
2 Insert two “AAA” size batteries (supplied
with the product).
Place the batteries with their terminals •
corresponding to the ( ) and ( )
indications in the battery compartment.
CAUTION
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.
3 Close the battery cover.
