Never touch this apparatus or antenna during a
thunder or lighting storm.
When mounting a TV on the wall, make sure not to
install the TV by the hanging power and signal
cables on the back of the TV.
Do not allow an impact shock or any objects to fall
into the product, and do not drop onto the screen
with something.
CAUTION concerning the Power Cord :
It is recommend that appliances 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 specification
page of this owner's manual to be certain.
Do not connect too many appliances to the same
AC power outlet as this could result in fire or elec-
tric shock.
Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall out-
lets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension cords,
frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire
insulation are dangerous. Any of these conditions
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.
Do not make the TV with the power cord plugged
in. Do not use a damaged or loose power cord. Be
sure do grasp the plug when unplugging the power
cord. Do not pull on the power cord to unplug the
TV.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire or electrical
shock, do not expose this product to rain, moisture
or other liquids. Do not touch the TV with wet
hands. Do not install this product near flammable
objects such as gasoline or candles or expose the
TV to direct air conditioning.
Do not expose to dripping or splashing and do not
place objects filled with liquids, such as vases, cups,
etc. on or over the apparatus (e.g. on shelves above
the unit).
GROUNDING
Ensure that you connect the earth ground wire to
prevent possible electric shock. (i.e. a TV with a
three-prong grounded AC plug must be connected
to a three-prong grouned AC outlet) If grounding
methods are not possible, have a qualified electri-
cian install a separate circuit breaker.
Do not try to ground the unit by connecting it to
telephone wires, lightening rods, or gas pipes.
DISCONNECTING DEVICE FROM MAINS
Mains plug is the disconnecting device. The plug
must remain readily operable.

ANTENNAS
Outdoor antenna grounding
If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the precau-
tions below. An outdoor antenna system should not
be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or
other electric light or power circuits, or where it can
come in contact with such power lines or circuits as
death or serious injury can occur.
Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to pro-
vide some protection against voltage surges and
built-up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) in
the U.S.A. provides information with respect to prop-
er grounding of the mast and supporting structure,
grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna dis-
charge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of
antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes and requirements for the grounding elec-
trode.
Antenna grounding according to the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70
Cleaning
When cleaning, unplug the power cord and scrub
gently with a soft cloth to prevent scratching. Do not
spray water or other liquids directly on the TV as
electric shock may occur. Do not clean with chemi-
cals such as alcohol, thinners or benzene.
Moving
Make sure the product is turned off, unplugged
and all cables have been removed. It may take 2 or
more people to carry larger TVs. Do not press
against or put stress on the front panel of the TV.
Ventilation
Install your TV where there is proper ventilation. Do
not install in a confined space such as a bookcase.
Do not cover the product with cloth or other mate-
rials (e.g.) plastic while plugged in. Do not install in
excessively dusty places.
If you smell smoke or other odors coming from the

If installed on a ceiling or slanted wall, it may fall and result in severe personal injury.
We recommend that you use an LG brand wall mount when mounting the TV to a wall.
GDo not install your wall mount kit while the TV is plugged in. It may result in personal injury due to electric
shock.
CAUTION
GScrew length needed depends on the wall mount
used. For further information, refer to the instruc-
tions included with the mount.
GStandard dimensions for wall mount kits are shown
in the table.
GWhen purchasing our wall mount kit, a detailed
installation manual and all parts necessary for
assembly are provided.
GDo not use screws longer then the standard dimen-
sion, as they may cause damage to the inside to
the TV.
GFor wall mounts that do not comply with the VESA
standard screw specifications, the length of the
screws may differ depending on their specifica-
tions.
GDo not use screws that do not comply with the
VESA standard screw specifications.
Do not tighten the screws too much. It may dam-
age the TV or allow the TV to a fall and cause per-
sonal injury. LG is not liable for these kinds of acci-
dents.
GLG is not liable for TV damage or personal injury
when a non-VESA or non specified wall mount is
used or the consumer fails to follow the TV installa-
tion instructions.

WARNING
PREPARATION

SECURING THE TV TO THE WALL TO PREVENT FALLING
WHEN THE TV IS USED ON A STAND
We recommend that you set the TV close to a wall so it cannot fall over if pushed backwards.
Additionally, we recommend that the TV be attached to a wall so it cannot be pulled in a forward direction,
potentially causing injury or damaging the product.
Caution: Please make sure that children don’t climb on or hang from the TV.
Insert eye-bolts (or TV brackets and bolts) to attach the product to the wall as shown in the picture.
*If your product has the bolts in the eye-bolts position before inserting the eye-bolts, loosen the bolts.
* Insert the eye-bolts or TV brackets/bolts and tighten them securely in the upper holes.
Secure the wall brackets with screws (sold separately) to the wall. Match the height of the bracket that
is mounted on the wall to the holes in the product.
Ensure the eye-bolts or brackets are tightened securely.
Use a sturdy rope or cord (sold separately) to tie the product. It is
safer to tie the rope so it becomes horizontal between the wall and
the product (the less slack in the rope, the better).
Image shown may differ from your TV.
GUse a platform or cabinet strong enough and large enough to support the size and weight of the TV.
GTo use the TV safely, make sure that the height of the bracket on the wall and the one on the TV are
the same.

NOTE:
If the pillow speaker switch is set to Pillow Speaker, no

Use a pillow speaker by Curbell, Model A-16455-02 or other UL
recognized pendant control bearing the warning:
Risk of fire if used in oxygen enriched atmosphere. Keep pen-
dant control away from oxygen equipment.
Controlling the TV with Serial Data
The TV is capable of being controlled by a single-wire, serial data
signal. This is a LG patented technology and is being implemented
by certain brands of “smart” pillow speakers, such as Curbell’s
“GEN-II” models.
Pillow Speaker Interface
This connector furnishes three control lines and an audio output.
A patient-pendant remote control, or entertainment audio and
nurse call system may be connected here. All lines are isolated
from the AC power line and earth ground. (Optoisolators isolate
the control lines, and a transformer isolates the audio. There are
no relays or inductive components in the control lines.)
Controlling the TV with Mechanical Switches
Pin 4(common) is momentarily connected to pin
1, 3, or 6 via push-action switches to control
On/Off and Channel Up/Down. These pins are
at +13volts DC(when measured from pin4) with
the switches open. Current draw is 8 mA when a
switch is closed. (This operation is identical to
previous LG models using the 5-Wire Interface
except that only +7 volts DC was supplied and
current draw was only 2.5 mA.)

GIf a fixed image is displayed on the screen for a long time, the image could become imprinted on the
screen and remain visible. This phenomenon is rare on LCDs, but is possible when the image is on the

warranty. When watching video that does not fill the screen, any after-image from the black bars will
normally dissipate after a few minutes.

MAINTENANCE
Early malfunctions can be prevented. Careful and regular cleaning can extend the amount of time you can
enjoy your new TV.
Caution: Be sure to turn the power off and unplug the power cord before you begin any cleaning.
Cleaning the Screen
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.
Make sure the excess water is off the screen, and then let it air-dry before you turn on your TV.
G If you expect to 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.
CAUTION

GDo not use window/glass cleaner or anything with ammonia to clean the screen.
