Installing
s To prevent internal heat buildup, do not block the ventilation
openings.
s Do not install the TV in a hot or humid place, or in a place subject to
excessive dust or mechanical vibration.
s Avoid operating the TV at temperatures below 5°C (41°F).
s If the TV is transported directly from a cold to a warm location, or if
the room temperature changes suddenly, the picture may be blurred
or show poor color due to moisture condensation. In this case, please
wait a few hours to let the moisture evaporate before turning on the
TV.
s To obtain the best picture, do not expose the screen to direct
illumination or direct sunlight. It is recommended to use spot
lighting directed down from the ceiling or to cover the windows that
face the screen with opaque drapery. It is desirable to install the TV
in a room where the floor and walls are not of a reflective material.

CAUTION
How to reduce the risk of “Image Retention” on your TV
Bright, stationary images such as TV station logos displayed on your
TV can cause permanent damage to your TV, resulting in retention of
the image in the picture. Please take the following steps to reduce the
risk of causing image retention:
View a variety of program sources or programming material.
Image retention can occur when bright stationary images such as TV
station logos are viewed. Changing the program material viewed
reduces the possibility that a single image will become imprinted on
the picture tubes in your TV.
When viewing programs with stationary images, adjust the picture
setting to reduce the “Picture” and “Brightness” levels. Image
retention is accelerated by higher “Brightness” and higher “Picture”
settings.
Please see page 96 for instructions on adjusting picture settings.
This will help you reduce the risk of causing image retention.
IMAGE RETENTION IS NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY
