CHILD SAFETY  
It makes a difference how and where you use  
your flat panel display  
As you enjoy your new product, keep these  
safety tips in mind  
The issue  
The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend, and larger TVs are popular  
purchases. However, TVs are not always supported on the proper stands or installed  
according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. We and the consumer electronics  
industry are committed to making home entertainment enjoyable and safe.  
TVs that are inappropriately placed on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers,  
chests, or carts may fall over and cause injury.  
Tune into safety  
•
•
•
•
•
One size of TV stand does not fit all. Use only a TV stand  
rated for the weight of your TV.  
Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for  
proper use of this product.  
Don’t let children climb on or play with entertainment system  
furniture and TVs.  
Don’t place TVs 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” TV. Make sure  
that you place or install the TV where it cannot be pushed,  
pulled over, or knocked down.  
•
Make sure that you route all cords and cables so that they  
cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children.  
Wall mounting  
If you decide to wall mount your TV, always remember:  
•
One size of wall mount does not fit all. Use only a wall mount rated for the weight of your  
TV and that has been recommended by this TV manufacturer, listed in this manual, or  
otherwise listed by an independent laboratory as suitable for your TV.  
•
•
Follow all instructions supplied by the TV and wall mount manufacturers.  
If you have any doubts about your ability to safely wall mount your TV, get help from a  
professional installer.  
•
Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the TV is  
appropriate. Some wall mounts are not designed to be mounted  
to walls backed with steel studs or cinder blocks. If you are  
unsure, ask a professional installer.  
•
TVs can be heavy. At least two people are required for safe wall mount installation.  
This apparatus is intended to be supported by a UL listed Wall Mount bracket.

Warnings  
Electric shock hazard  
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not remove any cover or  
expose the device to rain or moisture. No user-serviceable parts are  
inside. Refer servicing to qualified service technicians.  
This symbol indicates that dangerous  
voltage constituting a risk of electric  
shock is present within your TV. This  
label is located on the back of your TV.  
Lightning  
For added protection for your device receiver during a lightning storm,  
or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time,  
unplug it from the power outlet and disconnect any antenna or cable  
system. This helps prevent property damage and personal injury from  
lightning and power line surges.  
This symbol indicates that there are  
important operating and maintenance  
instructions in the literature  
accompanying your TV.

Read these instructions.  
Keep these instructions.  
Heed all warnings.  
Follow all instructions.  
Do not use this apparatus near water.  
Clean only with a dry cloth.  
Power lines  
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of  
overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it  
can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside  
antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching  
such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.  
Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with  
the manufacturer's instructions.  
Handling the LCD panel  
8
9
Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat  
registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that  
produce heat.  
Do 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 electrician for replacement of the obsolete  
outlet.  
• Your TV’s screen is made of glass. Do not drop your TV or hit, jolt,  
or press hard against the LCD panel. If the screen breaks, be  
careful of broken glass.  
• If the LCD panel is broken, make absolutely sure that you do not  
touch the liquid in the panel. This may cause skin inflammation.  
• If the liquid gets in your mouth, immediately gargle, rinse, and  
consult with your doctor. Also, if the liquid gets in your eyes or  
touches your skin, consult with your doctor after rinsing for at  
least 15 minutes or longer in clean water.  
Replacement parts  
10 Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched  
particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point  
where they exit from the apparatus.  
When replacement parts are required, make sure that the service  
technician uses replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that  
have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized  
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, personal injury, or other  
hazards.  
11 Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.  
12 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.  
Safety check  
After completing any service or repair to this device, ask the service  
technician to perform routine safety checks to determine that your TV is  
in correct operating condition.  
13 Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused  
for long periods of time.  
Power source  
14 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.  
Operate your TV only from the type of power source indicated on the  
marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your  
home, consult an electrician or your local power company.  
Cautions  
15 The wall plug is the disconnecting device. The plug must remain  
readily operable.  
Damage requiring service  
16 An apparatus with a three-prong, grounding-type plug is a Class I  
apparatus, which needs to be grounded to prevent possible  
electric shock. Make sure that you connect this Class I television  
to a grounding-type, three-prong outlet.  
Unplug this TV from the power outlet and refer servicing to qualified  
service personnel under the following conditions:  
• When the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed.  
• If liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into your TV.  
• If your TV has been exposed to rain or water.  
17 Remote control batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat  
such as sunshine, fire, or the like.

• If your TV does not operate normally by following the operating  
End of life directives  
instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the  
operating instructions because incorrect adjustment of other  
controls may result in damage and will often require extensive  
work by a qualified technician to restore your TV to its normal  
operation.  
Your TV contains tin-lead solder. Disposal of this material may be  
regulated for environmental reasons. Your TV also contains material  
that can be recycled and reused.  
Non-active pixels  
• If your TV has been dropped or damaged in any way.  
• When your TV exhibits a distinct change in performance.  
The LCD panel contains almost 3 million thin film transistors, which  
provide exceptionally sharp video quality. Occasionally, a few  
non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed blue, green, or red  
point. These non-active pixels do not adversely affect the performance  
of your TV, and are not considered defects.  
Outdoor antenna grounding  
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to your TV, make sure  
that the antenna or cable system is grounded to provide some  
protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article  
810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70, provides  
information with respect to correct grounding of the mast and  
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna  
discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of the  
antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and  
requirements for the grounding electrode.

Moisture will form on the TV if the TV is brought from cool surroundings  
into a warm room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly.  
When this happens, the TV's performance may be impaired. To prevent  
this, let the TV stand in its new surroundings for about an hour before  
switching it on, or make sure that the room temperature rises gradually.  
Condensation may also form during the summer if the TV is exposed to  
the breeze from an air conditioner. In such cases, change the location of  
the TV.  
Mobile telephone warning
