Important Safety Precautions

• Cleaning — Unplug the AC cord

from the AC outlet before cleaning

the product. Use a damp cloth to

clean the product. Do not use liquid

cleaners or aerosol cleaners.

• Water and moisture — Do not use

the product near water, such as

bathtub, washbasin, kitchen sink,

laundry tub, swimming pool and in a

wet basement.

• Do not place vases or any other

water-ﬁ lled containers on this product.

The water may spill onto the product

causing ﬁ re or electric shock.

• Stand — Do not place the product

on an unstable cart, stand, tripod

or table. Doing so can cause the

product to fall, resulting in serious

personal injuries as well as damage

to the product. Use only a cart,

stand, tripod, bracket or table

recommended by the manufacturer

or sold with the product. When

mounting the product on a wall, be

sure to follow the manufacturer’s

instructions. Use only the mounting

hardware recommended by the

manufacturer.

• When relocating the product

placed on a cart, it must be moved

with utmost care. Sudden stops,

excessive force and uneven ﬂ oor

surface can cause the product to fall

from the cart.

• Ventilation — The vents and other

openings in the cabinet are designed

for ventilation. Do not cover or block

these vents and openings since

insufﬁ cient ventilation can cause

overheating and/or shorten the life

of the product. Do not place the

product on a bed, sofa, rug or other

similar surface, since they can block

ventilation openings. This product is

not designed for built-in installation;

do not place the product in an

enclosed place such as a bookcase

or rack, unless proper ventilation

is provided or the manufacturer’s

instructions are followed.

• The LCD panel used in this product

is made of glass. Therefore, it can

break when the product is struck

forcefully or with a sharp object. If

the LCD panel is broken, be careful

not to be injured by broken glass.

• Heat sources — Keep the product

away from heat sources such as

radiators, heaters, stoves and other

heat-generating products (including

ampliﬁ ers)

• To prevent ﬁ re, never place any type

of candle or naked ﬂ ames on the

top or near the TV set.

• To prevent ﬁ re or shock hazard, do

not place the AC power cord under

the TV set or other heavy items.

• Do not place heavy objects on this

product or stand on it. Doing so

could cause injury if the product

overturns. Take special care near

children and pets.

The LCD panel is a very high technology product

with 6,220,800 thin ﬁ lm transistors, giving you ﬁ ne

picture details.

Due to the very large number of pixels, occasionally

a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen

as a ﬁ xed point of blue, green or red.

This is within product speciﬁ cations and does not

constitute a fault.

• Do not display a still picture for a long time, as this could

cause an afterimage to remain.

• Install the product on the place where the AC cord can

be unplugged easily from the AC outlet, or from the AC

INPUT terminal on the rear of the product.

Precautions when

transporting the TV

Be sure to always carry the TV

by two people holding it with two

hands — one hand on each side

of the TV.

Preparation

CAUTION

Improper use of batteries can result in chemical leakage or explosion. Be sure to follow the instructions below.

• Do not mix batteries of different types. Different types of batteries have different characteristics.

• Do not mix old and new batteries. Mixing old and new batteries can shorten the life of new batteries or cause chemical

leakage in old batteries.

• Remove batteries as soon as they have worn out. Chemicals that leak from batteries can cause a rash. If you ﬁ nd any

chemical leakage, wipe thoroughly with a cloth.

• The batteries supplied with this product may have a shorter life expectancy due to storage conditions.

• If you will not be using the remote control unit for an extended period of time, remove the batteries from it.
