CHILD SAFETY

PROPER TELEVISION PLACEMENT

MATTERS

THE CONSUMER ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY CARES

•

Manufacturers, retailers and the rest of the consumer electronics industry are

committed to making home entertainment safe and enjoyable.

•

As you enjoy your television, please note that all televisions - new and old- must be

supported on proper stands or installed according to the manufacturer's

recommendations. Televisions that are inappropriately situated on dressers,

bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers, chests, carts, etc., may fall over, resulting in injury.

TUNE IN TO SAFETY

•

ALWAYS follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the safe installation of your

television.

•

ALWAYS read and follow all instructions for proper use of your television.

•

NEVER allow children to climb on or play on the television or the furniture on which

the television is placed.

•

NEVER place the television on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a

chest of drawers.

•

ALWAYS install the television where it cannot be pushed, pulled over or knocked

down.

•

ALWAYS route cords and cables connected to the television so that they cannot be

tripped over, pulled or grabbed.

WALL OR CEILING MOUNT YOUR TELEVISION

•

ALWAYS contact your retailer about professional installation if you have any doubts

about your ability to safely mount your television.

•

ALWAYS use a mount that has been recommended by the television manufacturer

and has a safety certification by an independent laboratory (such as UL, CSA, ETL).

•

ALWAYS follow all instructions supplied by the television and mount manufacturers.

•

ALWAYS make sure that the wall or ceiling where you are mounting the television is

appropriate. Some mounts are not designed to be mounted to walls and ceilings with

steel studs or cinder block construction. If you are unsure, contact a professional

installer.

•

Televisions can be heavy. A minimum of two people is required for a wall or ceiling

mount installation.

MOVING AN OLDER TELEVISION TO A NEW PLACE IN YOUR

HOME

•

Many new television buyers move their older CRT televisions into a secondary room

after the purchase of a flat-panel television. Special care should be made in the

placement of older CRT televisions.

•

ALWAYS place your older CRT television on furniture that is sturdy and appropriate

for its size and weight.

•

NEVER place your older CRT television on a dresser where children may be tempted

to use the drawers to climb.

•

ALWAYS make sure your older CRT television does not hang over the edge of your

furniture.

Important Safety

Instructions

1 Read these instructions.

2 Keep these instructions.

3 Heed all warnings.

4 Follow all instructions.

5 Do not use this apparatus near water.

6 Clean only with dry cloth.

7 Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in

accordance with the manufacturer's

instructions.

8 Do not install near any heat sources such as

radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other

apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce

heat.

9 Do not defeat the safety purpose of the

polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized

plug has two blades with one wider than the

other. A grounding type plug has two blades

and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or

the third prong are provided for your safety. If

the provided plug does not fit into your outlet,

consult an electrician for replacement of the

obsolete outlet.

10 Protect the power cord from being walked on or

pinched particularly at plugs, convenience

receptacles, and the point where they exit from

the apparatus.

11 Only use attachments/accessories specified by

the manufacturer.

12 Use only with the cart, stand,

tripod, bracket, or table specified

by the manufacturer, or sold with

the apparatus. When a cart is

used, use caution when moving

the cart/apparatus combination

to avoid injury from tip-over.

13 Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms

or when unused for long periods of time.

14 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Servicing is required when the apparatus has

been damaged in any way, such as

power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid

has been spilled or objects have fallen into the

apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to

rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or

has been dropped.

15 The wall plug is the disconnecting device. The

plug must remain readily operable.

16 Remote control batteries should not be exposed

to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire, or the

like.

17 The apparatus should not be exposed to

dripping or splashing, and no objects filled with

liquids, such as vases, should be placed on the

apparatus.

WARNING

Electric shock hazard

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not

remove any cover or expose the device to rain or

moisture. No user-serviceable parts are inside. Refer

servicing to qualified service technicians.

Lightning

For added protection for your device receiver

during a lightning storm, or when it is left

unattended and unused for long periods of time,

unplug it from the power outlet and disconnect any

antenna or cable system. This helps prevent

property damage and personal injury from

lightning and power line surges.

Power lines

An outside antenna system should not be located in

the vicinity of overhead power lines or other

electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall

into such power lines or circuits. When installing an

outside antenna system, take extreme care to keep

from touching such power lines or circuits as

contact with them might be fatal.

Handling the LCD panel

• Your TV’s screen is made of glass. Do not drop

your TV or hit, jolt, or press hard against the LCD

panel. If the screen breaks, be careful of broken

glass.

• If the LCD panel is broken, make absolutely sure

that you do not touch the liquid in the panel. This

may cause skin inflammation.

• If the liquid gets in your mouth, immediately

gargle, rinse, and consult with your doctor. Also, if

the liquid gets in your eyes or touches your skin,

consult with your doctor after rinsing for at least

15 minutes or longer in clean water.

Replacement parts

When replacement parts are required, make sure

that the service technician uses replacement parts

specified by the manufacturer that have the same

characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized

substitutions may result in fire, electric shock,

personal injury, or other hazards.

CAUTION

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT OPEN

This symbol indicates that

dangerous voltage

constituting a risk of electric

shock is present within your TV.

This label is located on the

back of your TV.

This symbol indicates that

there are important operating

and maintenance instructions

in the literature accompanying

your TV.

Safety check

After completing any service or repair to this device,

ask the service technician to perform routine safety

checks to determine that your TV is in correct

operating condition.

Power source

Operate your TV only from the type of power source

indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure

of the type of power supplied to your home, consult

an electrician or your local power company.

Servicing

These servicing instructions are for use by qualified

service personnel only. To reduce the risk of electric

shock, do not perform any servicing other than that

contained in the operating instructions unless you

are qualified to do so.

CAUTION

Damage requiring service

Unplug this TV from the power outlet and refer

servicing to qualified service personnel under the

following conditions:

• When the power supply cord or plug is damaged

or frayed.

• If liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen

into your TV.

• If your TV has been exposed to rain or water.

• If your TV does not operate normally by following

the operating instructions. Adjust only those

controls covered by the operating instructions

because incorrect adjustment of other controls

may result in damage and will often require

extensive work by a qualified technician to restore

your TV to its normal operation.

• If your TV has been dropped or damaged in any

way.

• When your TV exhibits a distinct change in

performance.

Outdoor antenna grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected

to your TV, make sure that the antenna or cable

system is grounded to provide some protection

against voltage surges and built-up static charges.

Article 810 of the National Electrical Code,

ANSI/NFPA No. 70, provides information with

respect to correct grounding of the mast and

supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire

to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding

conductors, location of the antenna-discharge unit,

connection to grounding electrodes, and

requirements for the grounding electrode.

Note to CATV system installer

Article 820 of the National Electrical Code,

ANSI/NFPA No. 40 provides guidance for correct

grounding. Specifically, it states that the cable

ground must be connected to the grounding

system of the building as close to the point of cable

entry as practical.

Condensation

Moisture will form on the TV if the TV is brought

from cool surroundings into a warm room or if the

temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this

happens, the TV's performance may be impaired. To

prevent this, let the TV stand in its new

surroundings for about an hour before switching it

on, or make sure that the room temperature rises

gradually.

Condensation may also form during the summer if

the TV is exposed to the breeze from an air

conditioner. In such cases, change the location of

the TV.

Mobile telephone warning

To avoid interference with your TV picture and

sound, operating problems, or even damage, keep

your cordless and cellular telephones away from

the TV.

End of life directives

Your TV may contain materials that are regulated

for environmental reasons. Your TV also contains

materials that can be recycled and reused. To help

protect the environment, contact your local

authorities for information about disposal or

recycling and about finding a recycler in your area

before you dispose of your TV.

Non-active pixels

The LCD panel contains almost 3 million thin film

transistors, which provide exceptionally sharp video

quality. Occasionally, a few non-active pixels may

appear on the screen as a fixed blue, green, or red

point. These non-active pixels do not adversely

affect the performance of your TV, and are not

considered defects.
