WARNING

To guard against injury, the following basic safety precautions should be observed in the installation, use and servicing of the unit.

Use

Power Sources

This unit should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the information label. If you are not sure of the type of electrical power supplied to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.

Grounding or Polarization

This unit is equipped with a polarized AC power cord plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other), or with a three-wire grounding type plug (a plug having a third pin for grounding). Follow the instructions below:

For the unit with a polarized AC power cord plug

This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug.

If the plug still fails to fit, cont act your electrician to have a suitable outlet installed. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by forcing it in.

Wall outlet

Do not use a poor fitting outlet. Insert the plug fully into the outlet. If it is loose, it

may cause arcing and result in fire. Contact your electrician to have the outlet

changed.

Wiring

For your safety, unplug the AC power cord when wiring cables.

Electric shock

Do not touch the AC power cord or the unit with a wet hand. If you plug/unplug the AC power cord from the unit with a wet hand, it may ca use electric shock.

Cleaning

s Clean the AC power plug regularly.

If the plug is covered with dust and it p icks up moisture, its insulation m ay deteriorate and result in fire. Unplug the AC power plug and clean it regularly.

s Unplug the AC power cord when

cleaning this unit. If not, it may result in electric shock.

s Clean the cabinet of the TV with a dry soft cloth. To remove dust

from the screen, wipe it gently with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth slightly dampened with a solution of mild soap and warm water. Never use cloth or strong solvents such as thinner or benzine for cleaning.

s If using a chemically pretreated cloth, please follow the

instruction provided on the package.

s If the picture becomes dark after using the TV for a long period of

time, it may be necessary to clean the inside of the TV. Consult qualified service personnel.

Overloading

Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or convenience receptacles beyond their capacity, since this can result in fire or electric shock.

Power

Always turn the unit off when it is not being used. When the unit is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet as a precaution against the possibility of an internal malfunction that could create a fire hazard.

Sound

If a snapping or popping sound from the TV is continuous or frequent while the TV is operating, unplug the TV and consult your dealer or service technician. It is normal for TV’s to make occasional snapping or popping sounds, particularly when being turned on or off.

Cable wiring

Take care not to catch your feet on the cables. It may damage the unit.

Heat

Do not touch the surface of the TV. It remains hot, even for some time after the TV is turned off.

Volume adjustment

s Adjust the volume so as not to trouble your neighbors. Sound

carries very easily at night time. Therefore, closing the windows or using headphones is suggested.

s When using headphones, adjust the volume so as to avoid

excessive levels, as hearing damage may result.

Disposal of the TV

s Do not dispose the TV with general household waste. s The LCD contains a small amount of liquid crystal. The

fluorescent tube used in this display contains mercury. Follow your local ordinances and regulations for disposal.

Handling of broken glass and liquid crystal leakage

If the LCD panel gets damaged, crystalline liquid leakage may occur, or scattered broken glass may result. Do not touch broken glass or crystalline liquid (which is toxic), with bare hands as cuts or poisoning/ skin irritation may occur. Also, do not let glass fragments or leaked crystalline liquid get into your eyes or mouth. Should either contact your eyes or mouth, rinse the contacted area thoroughly with water and consult your doctor.

LCD screen

s 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.

s Do not expose the LCD screen surface to the sun. Doing so may

damage the screen surface.

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

s Ghosting may occur when still pictures are displayed

continuously. It may disappear after a few moments.

s The screen and cabinet get warm when the TV is in use. This is not

a malfunction.

s Avoid spraying insect repellent with volatile material to the

screen.

Antennas

Outdoor Antenna Grounding

If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the precautions below. An outdoor antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can come in contact with such power lines or circuits.

WHEN INSTALLING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA SYSTEM, EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO KEEP FROM CONTACTING SUCH POWER LINES OR CIRCUITS AS CONTACT WITH THEM IS ALMOST INVARIABLY FATAL.

Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.

Section 810 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) in USA and Section 54 of the Canadian Electrical Code in Canada provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

Antenna Grounding According to the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70
