Warning
For more details on installation, usage and safety
Consult your retailer
If the AC plug is not the right shape,

the remote control and
the TV unit can not
completely turn off the
TV. (Make appropriate
arrangements for

fatal electric
shock.
Take care when

Set PICTURE SHIFT to SLOW (P. 33).
Set CONTRAST (P. 33) and BRIGHT
(P. 33) to a lower level.
REFRESH (P. 33) may be able to partially
remove mild burn-in.
It may cause an electric shock.
Never obstruct the
ventilation holes!
It may cause overheating or a fire.
It may damage your hearing.
To prevent burn-in :
Handle all glass panels
with care!
Use a soft, dry cloth when cleaning.
Never expose to rain
or moisture!
To prevent fire or
electric shock, never
allow liquids to enter
the unit.
