IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
y Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched
particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the apparatus.
y Only use attachments/accessories specified by the
manufacturer.
y Use only with a 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.
y Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.
y Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing
is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any
way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid
has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus,
the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does
not operate normally, or has been dropped.
y Do not stick metal objects or any other conductive material
into the power cord. Do not touch the end of the power
cord while it is plugged in.
y Keep the packing anti-moisture material or vinyl packing
out of the reach of children. Anti-moisture material is
harmful if swallowed. If swallowed by mistake, induce
vomiting and go the nearest hospital. Additionally, vinyl
packing can cause suffocation. Keep it out of the reach of
children.
y CAUTION concerning the Power Cord
(Can differ by country):
It is recommended 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 electric shock. 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
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 service. 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
move 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.
y 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.
y 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).
ENGLISH
4IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
y Grounding
(Except for devices which are not grounded.)
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 grounded AC outlet). If grounding methods are not
possible, have a qualified electrician install a separate
circuit breaker. Do not try to ground the unit by connecting
it to telephone wires, lightening rods, or gas pipes.
Short-circuit
Breaker
Power Supply
y As long as this unit is connected to the AC wall outlet, it
is not disconnected from the AC power source even if the

y Outdoor Antenna Grounding (Can differ by country):
If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the precautions
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
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,

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
y Generated Sound
Cracking noise: A cracking noise that occurs when
watching or turning off the TV is generated by plastic
thermal contraction due to temperature and humidity. This
noise is common for products where thermal deformation
is required.
Electrical circuit humming/panel buzzing: A low level noise
is generated from a high-speed switching circuit, which
supplies a large amount of current to operate a product. It
varies depending upon the product.
This generated sound does not affect the performance and
reliability of the product.
y Take care not to touch the ventilation openings. When
watching the TV for a long period, the ventilation openings
may become hot. This does not affect the performance of
the product or cause defects in the product.
y If 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 TV’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.
Preventing image burn or burn-in on your TV
screen
y If a fixed image displays on the TV screen for a long period
of time, it will be imprinted and become a permanent
disfigurement on the screen. This is image burn or burn-in
and not covered by the warranty.
y If the aspect ratio of the TV is set to 4:3 for a long period
of time, image burn may occur on the letterboxed area of
the screen.
y Avoid displaying a fixed image on the TV screen for a
long period of time (1 or more hours for OLED) to prevent
image burn.
y Preventing Screen Burn
Displaying still images, such as a station’s logo, subtitle,
screen menu, video game or computer screen, for a long
time may damage the screen, causing screen burn which
can remain for a long time or never disappear. Do not
display still images for over an hour.

THE ISSUE
The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend and
larger flat panel displays are popular purchases. However, flat panel
displays are not always supported on the proper stands or installed
according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
Flat panel displays that are inappropriately situated on dressers,
bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers, chests or carts may fall over
and cause injury.
THIS MANUFACURER CARES!
The consumer electronics industry is committed to making home
entertainment enjoyable and safe.
TUNE INTO SAFETY
One size does NOT fit all. Follow the manufacturer’s
recommendations for the safe installation and use of your flat panel
display.
Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for proper
use of this product.
Don’t allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television
sets.
Don’t allow place flat panel displays on furniture that can easily be
used as steps, such as a chest of drawers.
Remember that children can become excited while watching a
program, especially on a “larger than life” flat panel display.
Care should be taken to place or install the display where it cannot
be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.
Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the
flat panel display so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious
children.
WALL MOUNTING: IF YOU DECIDE TO WALL
MOUNT YOUR FLAT PANEL DISPLAY, ALWAYS:
Use a mount that has been recommended by the display
manufacturer and/or listed by an independent laboratory
(such as UL, CSA, ETL).
Follow all instructions supplied by the display and wall mount
manufacturers.
If you have any doubts about your ability to safely install your flat
panel display, contact your retailer about professional installation.
Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the display is
appropriate. Some wall mounts are not designed to be mounted to
walls with steel studs or old cinder block construction.
If you are unsure, contact a professional installer.
A minimum of two people are required for installation.
Flat panel displays can be heavy.
CHILD SAFETY:
