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
bathtub, washbasin, kitchen sink,
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.

• 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 amplifiers).

• To prevent fire, never place any

type of candle or naked flames on
the top or near the TV set.

• To prevent fire 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.

• 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 is a very high technology product
with 6,220,880 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 TV

Be sure to always carry the TV
by two people holding it with two
hands—one hand on each side
of the TV.

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

• Install the product in a place where the AC cord can
be easily unplugged from an AC outlet and the AC
INPUT terminal on the rear of the product.

Preparation

Inserting the batteries

Before using the TV for the first time, insert two “AAA” size batteries (supplied). When the batteries become
depleted and the remote control fails to operate, replace the batteries with new “AAA” size batteries.

1 Open the battery cover. 2 Insert two supplied “AAA” size

batteries.

• Place batteries with their terminals

corresponding to the (e) and (f)
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 have worn out. Chemicals that leak from batteries 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 the batteries from it.

3 Close the battery cover.

Using the remote control unit

Use the remote control unit by pointing it towards the
remote sensor window.
Objects between the remote control unit and sensor
window may prevent proper operation.

Cautions regarding remote control unit

• Do not subject the remote control unit to shock.
In addition, do not soak the remote control unit with liquids, or place it in an
area with high humidity.

• Do not install or place the remote control unit under direct sunlight.
The heat may cause deformation of the unit.

• The remote control unit may not work properly if the remote sensor window of
the TV is under direct sunlight or strong lighting. In such case, change the
angle of the lighting or TV, or operate the remote control unit closer to the
remote sensor window.

• Power is suddenly turned off.

• Check if you pressed POWER on the remote control unit. (See page 16.)
If the indicator on the TV lights up red, press POWER.

• Is the AC cord disconnected? (See page 6.)

• Has the power been turned on? (See page 16.)

• 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 TV 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 5.)

• 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 36.)

• Are screen mode adjustments such as picture size made correctly? (See pages
37, 39 and 40.)

• Adjust the picture tone. (See pages 27 to 29 and 41.)

• Is the room too bright? The picture may look dark in a room that is too bright.

• Check the colour system setting. (See pages 23 and 42.)

• Check the input signal setting. (See pages 34 and 43.)

• Check the HDMI Setup setting. (See page 41.)

• The unit’s internal temperature has increased.
Remove any objects blocking vent or clean.

• Check the power control setting. (See page 31.)

• Is sleep timer set? (See page 18.)

• No picture.

• No sound.

• Is connection to other equipment correct? (See pages 11 and 12)

• Has input signal setup been done correctly after connection? (See pages 34
and 43.)

• Is the correct input selected? (See page 43.)

• Is picture adjustment correct? (See pages 27 to 29.)

• Is the antenna connected properly? (See page 10.)

• Is “On” selected in “Audio Only”? (See page 41.)

• Is the volume too low? (See page 18.)

• Make sure that headphones are not connected. (See page 13.)

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.
