Note
- If the TV feels cold to the touch, there may be a small “flicker” when when it is turned on. This
is normal, there is nothing wrong with TV.
- Some minute dot defects may be visible on the screen, appearing as tiny red, green, or blue
spots. However, they have no adverse effect on the monitor's performance.
- Avoid touching the LCD screen or holding your finger(s) against it for long periods of time.
Doing so may produce some temporary distortion effects on the screen.
CAUTION concerning the Power Cord
Most appliances recommend they be placed upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a single outlet circuit
which powers only that appliance and has no additional outlets or branch circuits. Check the speci-
fication page of this owner's manual to be certain.
Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension
cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of these con-
ditions could result in electric shock or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your appliance, and if
its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance, and
have the cord replaced with an exact replacement part by an authorized servicer.
Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched,
closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and the point where
the cord exits the appliance.

Maintenance
Maintenance
1. Here’s a great way to keep the dust off your screen for a while. Wet a soft cloth in a mixture of
lukewarm water and a little fabric softener or dish washing detergent. Wring the cloth until it’s
almost dry, and then use it to wipe the screen.
2. Make sure the excess water is off the screen, and then let it air-dry before you turn on your TV.
To remove dirt or dust, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
Please be sure not to use a wet cloth.
If you leave your TV dormant for a long time (such as a vacation), it’s a good idea to
unplug the power cord to protect against possible damage from lightning or power surges.
- Early malfunctions can be prevented. Careful and regular cleaning can extend the amount of time you
will have your new TV. Be sure to turn the power off and unplug the power cord before you begin any
cleaning.
