Heat
Do not touch the surface of the LCD TV. It remains hot, even
for some time after the LCD TV is turned off.
Precautions
On viewing the LCD TV comfortably
• To view the LCD TV comfortably, the recommended
viewing position is from four to seven times of the
screen’s vertical length away from the LCD TV.
• View the LCD TV in a moderate light room, as viewing
the LCD TV in poor light taxes your eyes. And watching
the screen continuously long times taxes your eyes, too.
On installing the LCD TV
• Use the specified wall-mount bracket or stands.
• Do not install the display unit in places subject to extreme
temperature, for example in direct sunlight, or near a
radiator, or heating vent. If the display unit is exposed to
extreme temperature, the display unit may heat up and it
may cause deformations of the casing or malfunctions.
• Do not install the display unit in a place exposed to direct
air conditioning. If the display unit is installed in such a
location, moisture may condense on the panel inside the
display unit. It may cause a malfunction.
• After transporting the display unit directly from a cold to
a warm location, or if the room temperature has changed
suddenly, pictures may be blurred or show poor color over
portions of the picture. This is because moisture has
condensed on the panel inside the display unit. Let the
moisture evaporate before using the display unit.
• To obtain a clear picture, prevent the lighting or sun light
from illuminating the screen directly. If possible, install a
lighting on the ceiling right above the LCD TV so that
reflection of the lighting is minimized.
• The LCD TV is not disconnected from AC power outlet
when the switch is in off position. To disconnect the LCD
TV completely, pull the plug from AC power outlet.
• Make sure the LCD TV is completely switched off by
pressing 1 on the TV (right side) before unplugging the
AC power cord. Unplugging the AC power cord while
LCD TV is switched on or at standby mode may cause the
power and standby indicators to remain lit. This does not
indicate a malfunction.
On adjustment volume
• Adjust the volume so as not to trouble neighbors. Sound
carries very easily at night time. Therefore, closing the
windows or using headphones is suggested.
• When using headphones, adjust the volume so as to avoid
excessive levels, as hearing damage may result.
On handling the remote control
• Handle the remote control with care. Do not drop or step
on it, or spill liquid of any kind.
• Do not place the remote control in a location near heat
source, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, or in a damp
room.

GB
On cleaning the screen surface/cabinet
• Be sure to unplug the AC power cord connected to the
LCD TV from the AC power outlet before cleaning.
• To remove dust from the screen surface/cabinet, wipe
gently with a soft cloth. If dust is persistent, wipe with a
soft cloth slightly moistened with a diluted mild detergent
solution.
• Note that material deterioration or screen coating
degradation may occur if the display unit is exposed to a
volatile solvent, such as alcohol, thinner, benzine or
insecticide, or if prolonged contact is maintained with
rubber or vinyl materials.
• The ventilation holes can accumulate dust over time. To
ensure proper ventilation, we recommend removing the
dust periodically (once a month) using a vacuum cleaner.
On the screen
• Although the LCD screen is made with high-precision
technology and has effective pixels of 99.99% or more,
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 panel and is not a
malfunction.
• Do not expose the LCD screen surface to the sun. Doing
so may damage the screen surface.
• Do not push or scratch the front filter, or place objects on
top of this unit. The image may be uneven or the LCD
panel may be damaged.
• If the unit 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 improve 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 unit is in use.
This is not a malfunction.
