Care and Cleaning
CAUTION: Turn OFF your TV before cleaning.
You can clean the TV as required, using a soft lint-free cloth. Be sure to occasionally dust the ventilation
slots in the cabinet to help assure adequate ventilation.
The TV’s screen may be cleaned with a soft, lint-free cloth as well. Take care not to scratch or mar
the screen. If necessary, you may use a cloth dampened with warm water. Never use strong cleaning
agents, such as ammonia-based cleaners, or abrasive powder. These types of cleaners will damage
the TV.
While cleaning do not spray liquid directly on the screen, or allow liquid to run down the screen and
inside the TV. Also, never place drinks or vases with water on top of the TV. This could increase the risk of
fire or shock hazard or damage to the TV.
Caution: Using video games or any external accessory with fixed images for extended periods of time
can cause them to be permanently imprinted on the picture tube (or projection TV picture tubes). ALSO,
some network/program logos, phone numbers, etc. may cause similar damage. This damage is not
covered by your warranty.
