Introduction

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.

Use a soft damp cloth to gently wipe the panel when it is dirty. To protect the panel, do not use a chemical cloth to clean it. Chemicals may cause damage or cracks in the cabinet of the TV.

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.

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

(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 cord under the TV set or other heavy items.

Headphones—Do not set the volume at a high level. Hearing experts advise against extended listening at high volume levels.

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

There is power consumption always if main plug is connected.

Servicing—Do not attempt to service the product yourself. Removing covers can expose you to high voltage and other dangerous conditions. Request a qualified person to perform servicing.

The LCD panel is a very high technology product, 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

When transporting the TV, never carry it by 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.

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.

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.

2

Introduction

Caring for the front panel

Gently wipe the surface of the front panel with a soft cloth (cotton, flannel, etc.). To protect the front 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 front panel.

Wiping with a hard cloth or using strong force may scratch the surface of the front panel.

Use a soft damp cloth to gently wipe the front panel when it is really dirty (It may scratch the surface of the front panel when wiped strongly).

If the front panel is dusty, use an anti-static brush, which is commercially available, to clean it.

WARNING

To prevent the spread of fire, keep candles or other open flames away from this product at all times.

Do not move around while wearing the 3D glasses. The surrounding area appears dark, which may result in falling or other accidents that may cause injury.

Caring for the 3D glasses

Use only the cloth provided with the 3D glasses to clean the lenses. Remove dust and soil from the cloth. Any dust or other soiling on the cloth may result in scratches on the product. Do not use solvents such as benzene or thinners as doing so may cause the coating to peel off.

When cleaning the 3D glasses, take care not to allow water or other fluids to come into contact with the glasses.

Always store the 3D glasses in the case provided when not in use.

When storing the 3D glasses, avoid very humid or hot locations.
