Precautions

Viewing the TV

• To view the TV comfortably, the recommended viewing

position is from four to seven times the screen’s vertical

length away from the TV set.

• To obtain a clear picture, do not expose the screen to direct

illumination or direct sunlight. If possible, use spot

lighting directed down from the ceiling.

• View the TV in moderate light, as viewing the TV in poor

light or during long period of time, strains your eyes.

Volume adjustment

• Adjust the volume so as not to trouble your neighbours.

Sound carries very easily at night time. Therefore, closing

the windows or using headphones is suggested.

• When using headphones, adjust the volume so as to avoid

excessive levels, as hearing damage may result.

LCD Screen

• Although the LCD screen is made with high-precision

technology and 99.99% or more of the pixels are effective,

black dots may appear or bright points of light (red, blue,

or green) may appear constantly on the LCD screen. This

is a structural property of the LCD screen and is not a

malfunction.

• Do not push or scratch the front filter, or place objects on

top of this TV set. The image may be uneven or the LCD

screen may be damaged.

• If this TV set is used in a cold place, a smear may occur in

the picture or the picture may become dark. This does not

indicate a failure. These phenomena disappear as the

temperature rises.

• Ghosting may occur when still pictures are displayed

continuously. It may disappear after a few moments.

• The screen and cabinet get warm when this TV set is in

use. This is not a malfunction.

• The LCD screen contains a small amount of liquid crystal

and mercury. The fluorescent tube used in this TV set also

contains mercury. Follow your local ordinances and

regulations for disposal.

Handling and cleaning the screen surface/cabinet of

the TV set

Be sure to unplug the mains lead connected to the TV set

from mains socket before cleaning.

To avoid material degradation or screen coating degradation,

observe the following precautions.

• Do not push on the screen, scratch it with a hard object, or

throw anything at it. The screen may be damaged.

• Do not touch the display panel after operating the TV set

continuously for a long period as the display panel

becomes hot.

• We recommend that the screen surface be touched as little

as possible.

• To remove dust from the screen surface/cabinet, wipe

gently with a soft cloth. If dust is persistent, wipe with a

soft cloth slightly moistened with a diluted mild detergent

solution.

• Never use any type of abrasive pad, alkaline/acid cleaner,

scouring powder, or volatile solvent, such as alcohol,

benzene, thinner or insecticide. Using such materials or

maintaining prolonged contact with rubber or vinyl

materials may result in damage to the screen surface and

cabinet material.

• The ventilation holes can accumulate dust over time. To

ensure proper ventilation, we recommend removing the

dust periodically (once a month) using a vacuum cleaner.

• If the angle of the TV set is to be adjusted, steady the base

of the stand with your hand to prevent the TV set from

becoming separated from the stand. Be careful not to get

your fingers caught between the TV set and the stand.

Optional Equipments

• Do not install optional components too close to the TV set.

Keep optional components at least 30 cm away from the

TV set. If a VCR is installed in front of the TV set or

beside the TV set, the picture may become distorted.

• Picture distortion and/or noisy sound may occur if the TV

set is positioned in close proximity to any equipment

emitting electromagnetic radiation.
