• Although the LCD screen is made with high-precision technology and

99.99% or more of the pixels are effective, black dots may appear or
bright points of light (red, blue, or green) may appear constantly on
the LCD screen. This is a structural property of the LCD screen and is
not a malfunction.

• Do not push or scratch the front fi lter, or place objects on top of this TV

set. The image may be uneven or the LCD screen may be damaged.

• If this TV set is used in a cold place, a smear may occur in the picture

or the picture may become dark. This does not indicate a failure.
These phenomena disappear as the temperature rises.

• Ghosting may occur when still pictures are displayed continuously. It

may disappear after a few moments.

• The screen and cabinet get warm when this TV set is in use. This is

not a malfunction.
