Important Safeguards for You and Your New Device
Always be careful when using your LCD TV. To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and other injuries,
keep these safety precautions in mind when installing, using, and maintaining your LCD TV.
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions
5. Do not use this device near water.
6. Clean only with a dry cloth.
7. Do not block any of the ventilation openings.
8. Install according to the manufacturer's instructions. Do not install near heat sources such as
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or any other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produces heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarised or grounding type plug. A polarised plug has two
blades, one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding
prong. The wide blade or the third prong is provided for your safety. When the plug provided does
not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at the plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the device.
11. Use only attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the
manufacturer, or sold with the device. When using a cart, use caution
when moving the cart/device combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this device during lightning storms or when not used for long
periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required
when the device has been damaged in any way, such as when the power supply cord or plug is
damaged; liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the device; the device has been
exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
15. Do not place this device on a slippery or tilted surface, or on an unstable cart, stand, tripod,
bracket, or table. The device may slide or fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult and serious
damage to the device.
16. When mounting the device, follow the manufacturer's instructions, and use a mounting accessory
recommended by the manufacturer
17. Avoid overhead power lines. Do not place an outside antenna system in the vicinity of overhead
power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it could fall into such power lines or
circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, be extremely careful not to touch the power
lines or circuits. Contact with such lines can be fatal.

Important Safety Instructions
18. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to
the device, be sure the antenna or cable system is
grounded so as to provide some protection against
voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article
810 of the U.S. National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
70 provides information with regard 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.
19. Never push objects of any kind through the openings into this device as they may touch dangerous
voltage points or short out parts and cause a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on
the device.
20. If you make adjustments yourself, adjust only the controls covered in the operating instructions.
Adjusting other controls may result in damage, and will often require extensive work by a
qualified technician to restore the LCD TV to normal.
21. When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorised substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
22. Upon completion of any service or repair to this device, ask the service technician to perform
routine safety checks to determine that the device is in proper operating condition.
23. CAUTION regarding Placement
To maintain proper ventilation, be sure to leave a space around the unit (from the largest outer
dimensions including projections) equal to or greater than:
Left and right Panels : 10cm
Rear Panel : 10cm
Top Panel : 50cm
The ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation slots with items,
such as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains, etc.
No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the apparatus.
The LCD Panel consists of 3 million cells. It is
therefore possible that a few cells might be
flawed. We allow a maximum of 6 defective cells
for the device to be in proper running order.
Please recognize that a device with 6 or fewer
defective cells cannot be exchanged or
refunded.

User Instructions
Like all phosphor-based display devices and all TFT LCD Displays, LCD TV' s can be susceptible to
phosphor burn under certain circumstances. Certain operating conditions, such as the continuous
display of a static image over a prolonged period of time, can result in phosphor burn if proper
precautions are not taken. To protect your investment in this LCD TV, please adhere to the following
guidelines and recommendations for minimizing the occurrence of image burn.
Recommendation to Avoid or Minimize Phosphor Burn-in:
1. Always enable and use your computer's screen-saver function during use with a computer
input source.
2. Display a moving image whenever possible.
3. Change the position of the menu display from time to time.
4. Always power down the LCD TV when you are finished using it.
5. Lower the brightness and contrast levels as much as possible without impairing image
readability.
6. Display an image with many colour and colour gradations (i.e. photographic or photorealistic
images).
7. Create image content with minimal contrast between light and dark areas, for example white
characters on black backgrounds. Use complementary or pastel colors whenever possible.
8. Avoid displaying images with few colors and distinct, sharply defined borders between colors.
9. Refer to the "Long Life Functions" section in this manual to minimize image burn.
Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.
Cell Defect
The TFT LCD panel consists of fine cells. Although the panels are produced with more than 99.9
percent active cells, there may be some cells that do not produce light or remain lit.
Warranty
Warranty Period: One year from the date of purchase of your LCD TV.
Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.

Setting up Your LCD TV Plug and Play
Our adoption of the new VESA
®
Plug and Play solution eliminates complicated and time consuming setup.
It allows you to install your LCD TV in a Plug and Play compatible system without the usual hassles and
confusion. Your PC system can easily identify and configure itself for use with your display. This LCD TV
automatically tells the PC system its Extended Display Identification Data(EDID) using Display Data
Channel(DDC) protocols so the PC system can automatically configure itself to use the flat panel display.
