TV.
• When installing the TV against a wall, always keep
the TV at least 10 cm away from the wall.
• Never place the TV on a soft unstable surface, such
as a carpet, or a cushion. The inside of this TV will overheat if the ventilation holes are covered, blocked or sealed, which may result in a fire.
5) Never place the TV near a heater or in direct sunlight.
The surface of the cabinet or power cord may melt and result in a fire or an electric shock.
Check!
About the fuse

• This TV is not intended for connection to and should not be used with a PC.
• When turning on your electronic components, turn on the TV first, and then the HDMI and DVI device.
• When turning off your electronic components, turn off the HDMI and DVI device first, and then the TV.
• This TV may not be compatible with features and/or specifications that may be added in the future.
• This TV is only operable with L-PCM on 32/44.1/48 kHz and 16/20/24 bits. If there is no sound when using HDMI, use the analog audio cables to connect the TV and the HDMI device, and select Analog in HDMI audio of the AV connection menu (- page 27).
• This TV is able to connect with HDMI devices. But it is possible that some HDMI devices may not operate properly with this TV.
Connecting an HDMI and a DVI device
The HDMI input on your TV receives digital audio and uncompressed digital video from an HDMI device and uncompressed digital video from a DVI device.
This input is designed to accept HDCP program material in digital from EIA/CEA-861/861B compliant consumer electronic devices (such as a set top box and DVD player with HDMI and DVI output).
The HDMI input is designed for best performance with 1080i (50 Hz/60 Hz) and 1080p (50 Hz/60 Hz) high-definition video signals, but will also accept and display 480i, 480p, 576i, 576p, 720p (50 Hz/60 Hz (60Hz: except for the E-EDID)) and VGA signals.
• HDMI: High-Definition Multimedia Interface
• DVI: Digital Video Interface
• HDCP: High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection
• EIA/CEA-861/861B compliance covers the transmission of uncompressed digital video with high-bandwidth digital content protection, which is being standardized for reception of high-definition video signals. Because this is an evolving technology, it is possible that some devices may not operate properly with the TV.
• E-EDID: Enhanced-Extended Display Identification
• VGA: VESA 640 5 480 @ 60 Hz
• L-PCM: Linear-Pulse Code Modulation
