Install in accordance with the ma nufacturer’s instruc-tions.4Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appa-ratus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.5Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong, The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an elec-trician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.6Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, conve-nience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.7Only use attachments/accessories speci-fied by the manufacturer.8Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over. 9Unplug this apparatus during lighting storms or when unused for long periods of time.10Refer all servicing to qualified service per-sonnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is dam-aged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the appara-tus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
4SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS11Never touch this apparatus or antenna during a thunder or lighting storm. 12When 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.13Do not allow an impact shock or any objects to fall into the product, and do not drop onto the screen with something.14CAUTION 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 appli-ance 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 electric shock.Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, exten-sion 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, discon-tinue 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.15WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire or elec-trical shock, do not expose this product to rain, moisture or other liquids.

520ANTENNASOutdoor antenna groundingIf an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the precautions below. An outdoor antenna sys-tem 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 provide 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 proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding elec-trodes and requirements for the grounding electrode. Antenna grounding according to the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70Antenna Lead in WireAntenna Discharge Unit(NEC Section 810-20)Grounding Conductor(NEC Section 810-21)Ground ClampsPower Service GroundingElectrode System (NECArt 250, Part H)Ground ClampElectric ServiceEquipmentNEC: National Electrical Code21CleaningWhen 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 chemicals such as alcohol, thinners or benzene.22MovingMake 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. 23VentilationInstall your TV where there is proper ventila-tion. Do not install in a confined space such as a bookcase. Do not cover the product with cloth or other materials (e.g.) plastic while plugged in. Do not install in exces-sively dusty places. 24Take care not to touch the ventilation open-ings. When watching the TV for a long period, the ventilation openings may become hot.25If you smell smoke or other odors coming from the TV or hear strange sounds, unplug the power cord contact an authorized service center.26Do not press strongly upon the panel with hand or sharp object such as nail, pencil or pen, or make a scratch on it.27Keep the product away from direct sunlight.28For LCD TVIf the TV feels cold to the touch, there may be a small “flicker” 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 tempo-rary distortion effects on the screen.

High-resolution digital television broad-cast and playback system com-posed of roughly a million or more pixels, 16:9 aspect-ratio screens, and AC3 digital audio. A subset of digital television, HDTV formats include 1080i and 720p resolu-tions.AV Mode is three preset picture and audio settings. It allows the viewer to quickly switch between common settings. It includes Cinema, Sports, and Game Modes.A unique invisible speaker system tuned by renowned audio expert, Mr. Mark Levinson. Speakers are embedded in strategic spots behind the front cabinet and use minute vibrations to turn the entire front bezel into the speaker system. The result s a clean, polished look, and enhanced audio by increasing the “sweet spot”, giving a wider and richer sound field.Unlike other sensors which can only sense brightness of ambient light, LG’s “Intelligent Sensor” uses 4,096 sensing steps to evaluate its surroundings. Using a sophisticat-ed algorithm, the LG processes picture quality elements including brightness, contrast, color, sharp-ness and white balance. The result is a picture optimized for it’s sur-roundings, more pleasing to watch and which can also save up to 50% in power consumption.
