KENSINGTON SECURITY SYSTEM
This feature is not available for all models.
Image shown may differ from your TV.
The TV is equipped with a Kensington Security
System connector on the back panel. Connect the
Kensington Security System cable as shown below.
For the detailed installation and use of the Kensington
Security System, refer to the user’s guide provided
with the Kensington Security System.
For further information, contact http://www.kensing-
ton.com, the internet homepage of the Kensington
company. Kensington sells security systems for expensive electron-
ic equipment such as notebook PCs and LCD projectors.
NOTE
- The Kensington Security System is an optional accessory.
NOTES
a. If the TV feels cold to the touch, there may be a
small “flicker” when it is turned on.
This is normal, there is nothing wrong with TV.
b. Some minute dot defects may be visible on the
screen, appearing as tiny red, green, or blue spots.
However, they have no adverse effect on the moni-
tor's performance.
c. Avoid touching the LCD screen or holding your finger(s)
against it for long periods of time.
Doing so may produce some temporary distortion
effects on the screen.
CAREFUL INSTALLATION ADVICE
A
You should purchase necessary components to fix the TV
safety and secure to the wall on the market.
A
Position the TV close to the wall to avoid the possibility
of it falling when pushed.
A
The instructions shown below are a safer way to set up
the TV, by fixing it to the wall, avoiding the possibility of
it falling forwards if pulled. This will prevent the TV from
falling forward and causing injury. This will also prevent
the TV from damage. Ensure that children do not climb
or hang from the TV.
NOTE
!
G
When moving the TV undo the cords first.
G
Use a platform or cabinet strong and large enough
to support the size and weight of the TV.
G
To use the TV safely make sure that the height of the
bracket on the wall and on the TV is the same.

2
Use the eye-bolts or TV brackets/bolts to fix the
product to the wall as shown in the picture.
(If your TV has bolts in the eyebolts, loosen then
bolts.)
* Insert the eye-bolts or TV brackets/bolts and tight-
en them securely in the upper holes.
Secure the wall brackets with the bolts on the wall.
Match the height of the bracket that is mounted on
the wall.
3
Use a sturdy rope to tie the product for alignment. It
is safer to tie the rope so it becomes horizontal
between the wall and the product.

EARTHING
Ensure that you connect the earth wire to prevent
possible electric shock. If grounding methods are not
possible, have a qualified electrician install a separate

Do not try to earth the TV by connecting it to tele-
phone wires, lightening rods or gas pipes.
WALL MOUNT: HORIZONTAL
INSTALLATION
A
We recommend the use of a LG Brand wall mounting
bracket when mounting the TV to a wall.
A

NOTE
!
G Should Install wall mount on a solid wall perpendicular to
the floor.
G Should use a special wall mount, if you want to install it to
ceiling or slanted wall.
G The surface that wall mount is to be mounted on should
be of sufficient strength to support the weight of TV set;
e.g. concrete, natural rock, brick and hollow block.
G Installing screw type and length depends on the wall
mount used. Further information, refer to the instructions
included with the mount.
G LG is not liable for any accidents or damage to property or
TV due to incorrect installation:
- Where a non-compliant VESA wall mount is used.
- Incorrect fastening of screws to surface which may cause
TV to fall and cause personal injury.
- Not following the recommended Installation method.

Avoid keeping a fixed image on the set’s screen
for prolonged periods of time. The fixed image
may become permanently imprinted on the

G
There may be interference relating to resolution,
vertical pattern, contrast or brightness in PC
mode. Change the PC mode to another resolu-
tion or change the refresh rate to another rate or
adjust the brightness and contrast on the menu
until the picture is clear. If the refresh rate of the
PC graphic card can not be changed, change the
PC graphic card or consult the manufacturer of
the PC graphic card.
G
The synchronization input waveform for
Horizontal and Vertical frequencies are separate.
G
We recommend using 1920x1080, 60Hz for the
PC mode, this should provide the best picture
quality.
G
Connect the signal cable from the monitor out-
put port of the PC to the RGB (PC) port of the
TV or the signal cable from the HDMI output
port of the PC to the HDMI IN (or HDMI/DVI
IN) port on the TV.
G
Connect the audio cable from the PC to the
Audio input on the TV. (Audio cables are not
included with the TV).
G
If using a sound card, adjust PC sound as
required.
G
If the graphic card on the PC does not output
analogue and digital RGB simultaneously, connect
only one of either RGB or HDMI IN (or
HDMI/DVI IN) to display the PC output on the
TV.
G
If the graphic card on the PC does output analogue
and digital RGB simultaneously, set the TV to either
RGB or HDMI; (the other mode is set to Plug and
Play automatically by the TV.)
G
DOS mode may not work depending on the video
card if you use an HDMI to DVI cable.
G
If you use too long an RGB-PC cable that is too
long, there may be interference on the screen.
We recommend using under 5m of cable. This
provides the best picture quality.
