Important Safety Precautions
• Cleaning — Unplug the AC cord
from the AC outlet before cleaning
the product. Use a soft damp cloth
to clean the product. Do not use
liquid cleaners, aerosol cleaners or
chemical cloth to clean it, as such
materials may damage the product.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
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 non-active 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
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 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.
If a television is not positioned in a suffi ciently stable
location, it can be potentially hazardous due to falling. Many
injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking
simple precautions such as:
• Using cabinets or stands recommended by the
manufacturer of the television.
• Only using furniture that can safely support the television.
• Ensuring the television is not overhanging the edge of
the supporting furniture.
• Not placing the television on tall furniture (for example,
cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the
furniture and the television to a suitable support.
• Not standing the televisions on cloth or other materials
placed between the television and supporting furniture.
• Educating children about the dangers of climbing on
furniture to reach the television or its controls.

Disc Precautions
Be Careful of Scratches and Dust
• BD, DVD and CD discs are sensitive to dust,
fi ngerprints and especially scratches. A scratched
disc may not be able to be played back. Handle
discs with care and store them in a safe place.
Proper Disc Storage
Place the disc in the center
of the disc case and store
the case and disc upright.
Avoid storing discs in
locations subject to direct
sunlight, close to heating
appliances or in locations of
high humidity.
Do not drop discs or subject
them to strong vibrations or
impacts.
Avoid storing discs in
locations where there are
large amounts of dust or
moisture.
Handling Precautions
• If the surface is soiled, wipe gently with a soft, damp
(water only) cloth. When wiping discs, always move
the cloth from the center hole toward the outer edge.
Warnings about dew formation
• Condensation may form on pick up lens or disc in
the following conditions:
– Immediately after a heater has been turned on.
– In a steamy or very humid room.
– When the TV is suddenly moved from a cold environment
to a warm one.
When condensation forms:
It becomes diffi cult for the TV to read the signals
on the disc and prevents the TV from operating
properly.
To remove condensation:
Take out the disc and leave the TV with the power
off until the condensation disappears. Using
the TV when there is condensation may cause
malfunction.

AQUOS LINK
Controlling HDMI devices using AQUOS LINK
What is AQUOS LINK?
Using the HDMI CEC protocol, with AQUOS LINK you can interactively operate
compatible system devices (AV amplifi er, DVD player/recorder, Blu-ray player/
recorder) using a single remote control unit.
What you can do with AQUOS LINK
✔ One Touch Recording (DTV only)
You do not have to search for the remote control unit of your recording device.
Press the REC or REC STOP buttons inside the fl ip cover to start/stop recording
what you see on the recorder.
✔ One Touch Play
While the TV is in standby mode, it will automatically turn on and play back the
image from the HDMI source.
✔ Single remote control operation
AQUOS LINK automatically recognises the connected HDMI devices and you can
control the TV and the devices as if using a universal remote control unit.
✔ Operating Title list of external devices
In addition to displaying the TV’s own Timer list (Pages 45 and 46), you can also
call up the external player’s Top menu or AQUOS BD Player’s/AQUOS Recorder’s
Title list provided that the devices support AQUOS LINK.
✔ Multiple control of HDMI devices
You can select which HDMI device to operate using the OPTION button.
NOTE
• When you use AQUOS LINK, make sure to use a certifi ed HDMI cable.
• Point the remote control unit toward the TV, not to the connected HDMI device.
• Video noise may occur depending on the type of HDMI cable used. Make sure to use a
certifi ed HDMI cable.
• Up to three HDMI recording devices, one AV amplifi er and two players can be connected
using this system.
• These operations affect the HDMI device selected as the current external source. If the
device does not operate, turn on the device and select the appropriate external source
using TV/VIDEO.
• When you insert/remove HDMI cables or change connections, turn on all connected HDMI
devices before turning on the TV. Confi rm that picture and audio are correctly output by
selecting “INPUT1”, “INPUT2” or “INPUT3” from the “INPUT SOURCE” menu.

Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments
• When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, offi ce), 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.
