SPECIAL NOTE FOR USERS IN THE U.K.
The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporating a 13A fuse. Should
the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved BS 1362 fuse marked or
ASA
and of the same rating
as above, which is also indicated on the pin face of the plug, must be used.
Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.
In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied, cut off the
mains plug and fit an appropriate type.
DANGER:
The fuse from the cut-off plug should be removed and the cut-off plug destroyed immediately and disposed of
in a safe manner.
Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet, as a serious
electric shock may occur.
To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:
IMPORTANT:
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Blue: Neutral
Brown: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this product may not correspond with the coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
• The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked N or coloured black.
• The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked L or coloured red.
Ensure that neither the brown nor the blue wire is connected to the earth terminal in your three-pin plug.
Before replacing the plug cover make sure that:
• If the new fitted plug contains a fuse, its value is the same as that removed from the cut-off plug.
• The cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the mains lead, and not simply over the lead wires.
IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT, CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

according to the method recommended by the manufacturer.
3
Important Safety Precautions
• Cleaning—Unplug the AC 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.
• Water and moisture—Do not use
the product near water, such as

laundry tub, swimming pool and in
a wet basement.
• Do not place vases or any other
water-filled containers on this
product.
The water may spill onto the
product causing fire 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 floor surface can cause
the product to fall from the cart.
• 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 LCD panel used in this
product is made of glass.
Therefore, it can break when the
product is dropped or impact
applied. 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

do not place the AC power cord
under the TV set or other heavy
items.
The LCD panel is a very high technology
product with 6,220,800 thin film transistors,
giving you fine picture details.
Due to the very large number of pixels,
occasionally a few non-active pixels may appear
on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green or
red.
This is within product specifications and does
not constitute a fault.
Precautions when
transporting the Display
When transporting the Display,
never carry it by holding onto the
speakers. Be sure to always
carry the Display by two people
holding it with two hands—one
hand on each side of the display.
Do not display a still picture for a long time, as

If the indicator on the Display lights up red, press B.
• Is the AC cord disconnected? (See page 13.)
• Has the main power been turned on? (See page 20.)
• External influences such as lightning, static electricity, etc., may cause improper
operation. In this case, operate the unit after first turning the power off the Display
and the AVC System, or unplugging the AC cord and re-plugging it in after 1 or
2 minutes.
• Are batteries inserted with polarity (e, f) aligned? (See page 12.)
• Are batteries worn out? (Replace with new batteries.)
• Are you using it under strong or fluorescent lighting?
• Is a fluorescent light illuminated to remote control sensor?
• Is the image position correct? (See page 65.)
• Are screen mode adjustments such as picture size made correctly? (See pages
69 to 71.)
• Adjust the picture tone. (See pages 45 to 48 and 71.)
• Is the room too bright? The picture may look dark in a room that is too bright.
• Check the colour system setting. (See pages 28 and 67.)
• Check the input signal setting. (See page 66.)
• Power is suddenly turned off.
• No picture.
• No sound.
• The DTV menu screen is
displayed in monochrome and
hard to select the item.
• The unit’s internal temperature has increased.
Remove any objects blocking vent or clean.
• Check the power control setting. (See page 49.)
• Is sleep timer set? (See page 72.)
• Is connection to other components correct? (See pages 60 to 63.)
• Has input signal setup been done correctly after connection? (See page 66.)
• Is the correct input selected? (See page 66.)
• Is a non-compatible signal being input? (See page 79.)
• Is picture adjustment correct? (See pages 45 to 47.)
• Is the antenna connected properly? (See page 13.)
• Is “On” selected in “Audio Only”? (See page 65.)
• Is the volume too low? (See page 23.)
• Is “Variable” selected in “Audio Out”? (See page 72.)
• Is the speaker connected properly?
• Is correct speaker output (“SPEAKER-A” or “SPEAKER-B”) selected in “Speaker”?
(See page 64.)
• Is “On” selected in “Centre Channel Input”? (See page 74.)
• Make sure that headphones are not connected. (See page 17.)
• Check if “Monochrome” is set to “On”. If so, set it to “Off”. (See page 47.)
Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments
• When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, office), the picture may leave trails or appear
slightly delayed. This is not a malfunction, and the unit will recover when the temperature returns to normal.
• Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight
or near a heater, as this may cause the cabinet to deform and the LCD panel to malfunction.
Storage temperature: –20°C to +60°C (–4°F to +140°F).
