1 Safety warnings
_________________________
1.1 General
Do not insert the power plug in a wall socket or hang the TV to
the wall before all connections are made.
- Place or hang the TV wherever you want, but make sure that air can
circulate freely through the ventilation slots. Leave at least 4” to 6” free
all around the TV.
- Do not place the TV on a carpet.
- Do not install the TV in a confined space such as a book case or a
similar unit.
- To prevent any unsafe situations, no naked flame sources, such as
lighted candles, should be placed in the vicinity.
- Avoid heat, direct sunlight and exposure to rain or water.
- The equipment shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing.
- To prevent damaging the power (AC) cord which could cause a fire or
electric shock, do not place the TV on the cord.

1.2 Care of the screen
Do not remove the protective sheet until you have completed the stand/
wall mounting and connection.
Please, handle with care. Use only the soft cloth supplied to clean the
glossy black front of the TV.
Do not touch, push or rub or strike the screen with anything hard as this
may scratch, mar or damage the screen permanently.
And please do not rub with dust clothes with chemical treatment.
Do not touch the surface with bare hands or greasy cloth (some
cosmetics are detrimental to the screen). Unplug the TV before cleaning
the screen.
When the surface becomes dusty, please wipe gently with absorbent
cotton or other soft materials like chamois soaks. Do not use acetone,
toluene and alcohol because they cause chemical damage. Do not use
liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Wipe off saliva or water drops
as soon as possible. Their long time contact with the screen causes
deformations and color fading.

1.3 Warning concerning stationary images on the TV
screen
A characteristic of LCD Panels is that displaying the same image for a
long time can cause a permanent after-image to remain on the screen.
Normal use of the TV should involve the showing of pictures that
contain constantly moving and changing images that fill the screen.
Examples of stationary images (this is not an all-inclusive list, you may
encounter others in your viewing):
- TV menus;
- Black bars: when black bars appear at the left and right side of the
screen, it is recommended to change to a picture format so that the
picture fills the entire screen;
- TV channel logo: present a problem if they are bright and stationary.
Moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause uneven aging of
the screen;
- Stock market stickers: presented at the bottom of the TV screen;
- Shopping channel logos and pricing displays: bright and shown
constantly or repeatedly in the same location on the TV screen.
Examples of still pictures also include logos, computer images, time
display, teletext and images displayed in 4:3 mode, static images or
characters, etc.
Reduce contrast and brightness when viewing. When the same image
is displayed for 10 minutes, brightness will be reduced automatically.
Once burn-in occurs it will never disappear completely.
!
Carefully pay attention to these remarks. The warranty does not
apply to damage caused by not taking into account the above
mentioned warnings on stationary images.

1.4 Mounting
Installing the TV requires special skills that should only be performed by
qualified personnel. You should not attempt to do the work yourself.
Magnavox bears no responsibility for improper mounting or mounting
that results in accident or injury. Make sure that the wall mount is being
fixed securely enough so that it meets safety standards.
!
If the TV is mounted on a swivel base or swivel arm, ensure no strain
is placed on the power cord when the TV is swivelled. Strain on the
power cord can loosen connections. This may cause arcing and result in
fire.
