Safety information
Read instructions
Read all of the safety and operating instructions
before you use your TV.
Retain instructions
Retain safety and operating instructions for
future reference.
Follow warnings and instructions
Follow all warnings on your TV and in the
operating instructions. Follow all operating and
use instructions.
Water and moisture
Do not use your TV near water. For example, do
not use it near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen
sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a
swimming pool.
Cleaning
Unplug your TV before cleaning. Do not use
liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use only a damp cloth
to clean the exterior of your TV.
Ventilation
Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back
or bottom are provided for ventilation, reliable
operation, and protection from overheating.
These openings must not be blocked or covered.
Do not block the openings by placing your TV on
a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Do not
place your TV near or over a radiator or heat
register. Do not place your TV in a built-in
installation, such as a bookcase or rack, unless
you provide correct ventilation or follow the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Heat
Make sure that your TV is located away from
heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,
stoves, or other products (including amplifiers)
that produce heat.
Grounding or polarization
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
grounding prong. The wide blade or grounding
prong are provided for your safety. If the plug
does not fit, contact an electrician to replace the
obsolete outlet.
Power cord protection
Route power cords so that they are not likely to
be walked on or pinched by items placed on or
against them. Pay particular attention to cords at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from your TV.
Attachments
Do not use attachments not recommended by
Insignia because they may cause hazards.
Stand
Do not place your TV on an unstable cart, stand,
tripod, bracket, or table. Your TV may fall,
causing serious personal injury and serious
damage to your TV. Use only with a cart, stand,
tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the
manufacturer, or sold with your TV. If you mount
your TV to the wall, follow the manufacturer’s
instructions and use a mounting accessory
recommended by the manufacturer. Your TV
and cart combination should be moved with
care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven
surfaces may cause your TV and cart
combination to overturn.
Lightning
For added protection for your TV’s 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
the antenna or cable system. This helps prevent
damage to your TV from lightning and power line
surges.
Warning
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover
or back. No user serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to
qualified service personnel.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose your
TV to rain or moisture.
Caution
To prevent electric shock, match the wide blade on the power
cord plug to the wide slot on an electric outlet. If the plug does
not fit, consult a licensed electrician to replace the obsolete
outlet. Do not modify the power cord plug, or you will defeat
this safety feature.
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.
Warning
Your TV contains tin-lead solder and a fluorescent lamp
containing a small amount of mercury. Disposal of these
materials may be regulated for environmental reasons. For
disposal or recycling information, contact your local authorities
or the Electronic Industries Alliance at www.eia.org.
