Important Safety Instructions
Your HDTV is designed and manufactured to operate within defined design limits, and misuse
may result in electric shock or fire. To prevent your HDTV from being damaged, the following
rules should be observed for the installation, use, and maintenance of your HDTV. Read the
following safety instructions before operating your HDTV. Keep these instructions in a safe place
for future reference.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock or component damage, switch off the power before connecting other components to
your HDTV.
• Unplug the power cord before cleaning your HDTV. A damp cloth is sufficient for cleaning your HDTV. Do not use a liquid
or a spray cleaner for cleaning your HDTV. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
• Always use the accessories recommended by the manufacturer to insure compatibility.
• When moving your HDTV from an area of low temperature to an area of high temperature, condensation may form in the
housing. Wait before turning on your HDTV to avoid causing fire, electric shock, or component damage.
• Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by manufacturer or sold with your HDTV. When a cart is
used, use caution when moving the cart/HDTV combination to avoid injury from tip-over. Do not place your HDTV on an
unstable cart, stand, or table. If your HDTV falls, it can injure a person and cause serious damage to your HDTV. Use only
a cart or stand recommended by the manufacturer or sold with your HDTV.
• A distance of at least 3 feet should be maintained between your HDTV and any heat source, such as a radiator, heater,
oven, amplifier etc. Do not install your HDTV close to smoke. Operating your HDTV close to smoke or moisture may
cause fire or electric shock.
• Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of your
HDTV and to protect it from overheating, be sure these openings are not blocked or covered. Do not place your HDTV in
a bookcase or cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided.
• Never push any object into the slots and openings on your HDTV cabinet. Do not place any objects on the top of your
HDTV. Doing so could short circuit parts causing a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquids on your HDTV.
• Your HDTV should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the label. If you are not sure of the type of
power supplied to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
• Do not apply pressure or throw objects at your HDTV. This may compromise the integrity of the display. The
manufacturer’s warranty does not cover user abuse or improper installations.
• The power cord must be replaced when using different voltage than the voltage specified. For more information, contact
your dealer.
• Your HDTV is equipped with a three-pronged grounded plug (a plug with a third grounding pin). This plug will fit only
into a grounded power outlet. This is a safety feature. If your outlet does not accommodate the three-pronged, have an
electrician install the correct outlet, or use an adapter to ground your HDTV safely.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounded plug.
• When connected to a power outlet, power is always flowing into your HDTV. To totally disconnect
power, unplug the power cord.
• The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of un-isolated, dangerous
voltage within the inside of your HDTV that may be of sufficient
magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
• The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the
user to the presence of important operating and servicing instructions in the
literature accompanying your HDTV.
• Do not overload power strips and extension cords. Overloading can result in fire or electric shock.
• The wall socket should be installed near your HDTV and easily accessible.
• Only power of the marked voltage can be used for your HDTV. Any other voltage than the specified voltage may cause
fire or electric shock
• Do not touch the power cord during lightning. To avoid electric shock, avoid handling the power cord during electrical
storms.
• Unplug your HDTV during a lightning storm or when it will not be used for long period of time. This will protect your HDTV
from damage due to power surges.
• Do not attempt to repair or service your HDTV yourself. Opening or removing the back cover may expose you to high
voltages, electric shock, and other hazards. If repair is required, contact your dealer and refer all servicing to qualified
service personnel.
• Keep your HDTV away from moisture. Do not expose your HDTV to rain or moisture. If water penetrates into your HDTV,
unplug the power cord and contact your dealer. Continuous use in this case may result in fire or electric shock.
• Do not use your HDTV if any abnormality occurs. If any smoke or odor becomes apparent, unplug the power cord and
contact your dealer immediately. Do not try to repair your HDTV yourself.
• Avoid using dropped or damaged appliances. If your HDTV is dropped and the housing is damaged, the internal
components may function abnormally. Unplug the power cord immediately and contact your dealer for repair. Continued
use of your HDTV may cause fire or electric shock.
