1. Precautions and Safety Notices
1.1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
This LCD TV is manufactured and tested on a ground principle that a user's safety comes first.
However, improper use or installation may cause damage to the LCD TV as well as to the user.
Carefully go over the following WARNINGS before installing and keep this guide handy.
WARNINGS:
This LCD TV should be operated only at the correct power sources indicated on the label
on the rear end of the LCD TV. If you're unsure of the power supply in your residence,
consult your local dealer or power company.
Use only the special power adapter that comes with this LCD TV for power input.
Do not try to repair the LCD TV yourself as it contains no user-serviceable parts. This
LCDTV should only be repaired by a qualified technician.
Do not remove the LCD TV cabinet. There is high-voltage parts inside that may cause
electric shock to human bodies, even when the power cord is unplugged.
Stop using the LCD TV if the cabinet is damaged. Have it checked by a service technacian.
Put your LCD TV only in a clean, dry environment. If it gets wet, unplug the power cable
immediately and consult your service technician.
Always unplug the LCD TV before cleaning it. Clean the cabinet with a clean, dry cloth.
Apply non-ammonia based cleaner onto the cloth, not directly onto the glass screen.
Keep the LCD TV away from magnetic objects, motors, TV sets, and transformer.
Do not place heavy objects on the LCD TV or power cord.
1.2. PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE
Many electrical and mechanical parts in this chassis have special safety visual inspections and
the protection afforded by them cannot necessarily be obtained by using replacement
components rated for higher voltages, wattage, etc. Before replacing any of these components
read the parts list in this manual carefully. The use of substitute replacement parts which do not
have the same safety characteristics as specified in the parts list may create shock, fire, or other
hazards.
1.3. SERVICE NOTES
1. When replacing parts or circuit boards, clamp the lead wires around terminals before
soldering.
2. When replacing a high wattage resistor (more than 1W of metal oxide film resistor) in circuit
board, keep the resistor about 5mm away from circuit board.
3. Keep wires away from high voltage, high temperature components and sharp edges.
4. Keep wires in their original position so as to reduce interference.
5. Usage of this product please refer to also user's manual.

LCD TV Handling Precautions
1. Handling Precautions
(1) Since front polarizer is easily damaged, pay attention not to scratch it.
(2) Be sure to turn off power supply when inserting or disconnecting from input connector.
(3) Wipe off water drop immediately. Long contact with water may cause discoloration or spots.
(4) When the panel surface is soiled, wipe it with absorbent cotton or other soft cloth.
(5) Since the panel is made of glass, it may break or crack if dropped or bumped on hard surface.
(6) Since CMOS LSI is used in this module, take care of static electricity and insure human earth
when handling.
(7) Do not open nor modify the Module Assembly.
(8) Do not press the reflector sheet at the back of the module to any directions.
(9) In case if a Module has to be put back into the packing container slot after on ce it was taken
out from the container, do not press the center of the CCFL Reflector edge. Instead, press at
the far ends of the CFL Reflector edge softly. Otherwise the TFT Module may be damaged.
(10) At the insertion or removal of the Signal Interface Connector, be sure not to rotate nor tilt the
Interface Connector of the TFT Module.
(11) After installation of the TFT Module into an enclosure (LCD TV housing, for example), do
not twist nor bend the TFT Module even momentary. At designing the enclosure, it should be
taken into consideration that no bending/twisting forces are applied to the TFT Module from
outside. Otherwise the TFT Module may be damaged.
(12) Cold cathode fluorescent lamp in LCD contains a small amount of mercury. Please follow
local ordinances or regulations for disposal.
(13) Small amount of materials having no flammability grade is used in the LCD module. The
LCD module should be supplied by power complied with requirements of Limited Power
Source (IEC60950 or UL1950), or be applied exemption.
(14) The LCD module is designed so that the CFL in it is supplied by Limited Current Circuit
(IEC60950 or UL1950). Do not connect the CFL in Hazardous Voltage Circuit.
2. Handling and Placing Methods
Correct Methods: Incorrect Methods:
Only touch the metal frame of the LCD panel
or the front cover of the LCD TV. Do not touch
the surface of the polarizer.
Surface of the LCD panel is pressed by fingers
and that may cause “Mura”

Take out the LCD TV with cushions Taking out the LCD TV by grasping the LCD
panel. That may cause “Mura”
Place the LCD TV on a clean and soft foam
pad.
Placing the LCD TV on foreign objects. That
could scratch the surface of the panel or cause
“Mura”
Connector pin assignments for DVI cable
DVI: 25 pins DVI connector is designed to match with DVI digital signal cable, the pin
assignment is as the following:

Whether there is unusual sound, input signal LEVEL<=36dBu,and STEREO
SENSITIVITY is normal.
P2. Adjustment attenuator, If the critical point of the change of the image signal to noise
ratio is under LEVEL<=60dBu,regards as normally.
P3. Examines TV brightness; confirm whether DUAL FUNCTION is normal under DUAL
MODE: whether DUAL SENSITIVITY is normal when input signal is under
LEVEL<=36dBu.
P4. Examines whether PAL color demodulation is normal by using DEM image; whether
STEREO SENSITIVITY is normal when input signal is under LEVEL<=36dBu.
P5. Examines whether DUAL FUNCTION is normal under DUAL MODE; whether
DUAL SENSITIVITY is normal when input signal is under LEVEL<=36dBu.
P6. Examines whether the sound does receive the image disturbance, Judgment basis:
Whether there is unusual sound, input signal LEVEL<=36dBu,and STEREO

1.4.8.VIDEO RECEIVING TEST:
AV receives supply oscillator: AV/S-Video/HD/SCART1/SCART2/SCART-SV are from
DVD to LCD TV; Examines whether has the image and the sound and is normal.
(1). AV: Video cable (Yellow), Audio cable (Left (White), Right (Red) sound track).
(2). S-Video: S-Video signal cable (White), Audio cable (Left (White), Right (Red) sound
track).
(3). HD (Ypbpr/YcbCr): brightness signal cable (Green), Component signal cable (Red,
Blue), Audio cable (Left (White), Right (Red) sound track).
(4). SCART1: 21Pin SCART signal cable (Black).
(5). SCART2: 21Pin SCART signal cable (Black).
1.4.9.VIDEO/AUDIO OUTPUT TEST:
(1). SCART/AV output: A 32” LCD TV in AV pattern, inputs the CVBS signal; the output
meets SCART, SCART connects another 32” LCD TV which is in SCART pattern,
Examines two 32” LCD TV whether demonstrates the same image. But their sound
doesn’t mutually affect, Must respectively adjust volume to examine sound. AV output
test method is in the same way.
(2). Under any pattern except PC pattern, The Audio output meets active extra speaker,
examines whether the extra speaker makes the sound.
