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 crate or 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.

Important Safety  
Instructions  
CAUTION  
plug must remain readily operable.  
16 Remote control batteries should not be exposed  
to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire, or the  
like.  
17 The apparatus should not be exposed to  
dripping or splashing, and no objects filled with  
liquids, such as vases, should be placed on the  
apparatus.  
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK  
DO NOT OPEN  
WARNING  
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.  
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 there are  
important operating and maintenance  
instructions in the literature  
Lightning  
accompanying your TV.  
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.  
1 Read these instructions.  
2 Keep these instructions.  
3 Heed all warnings.  
4 Follow all instructions.  
5 Do not use this apparatus near water.  
6 Clean only with 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.  
7 Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in  
accordance with the manufacturer's  
instructions.  
8 Do not install near any heat sources such as  
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other  
apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce  
heat.  
9 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.  
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.  
Handling the LCD panel  
• 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.  
11 Only use attachments/accessories specified by  
Replacement parts  
the manufacturer.  
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.  
12 Use 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.  
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.  
14 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.  
Servicing is required when the apparatus has  
been damaged in any way, such as  
Power source  
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.

Power service grounding electrode system  
Electric service equipment  
Note to CATV system installer  
Article 820 of the National Electrical Code,  
ANSI/NFPA No. 40 provides guidance for correct  
grounding. Specifically, it states that the cable  
ground must be connected to the grounding  
system of the building as close to the point of cable  
entry as practical.  
• If your TV has been dropped or damaged in any  
way.  
• When your TV exhibits a distinct change in  
performance.  
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,  
Condensation  
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.  
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.  
Mobile telephone warning  
To avoid interference with your TV picture and  
sound, operating problems, or even damage, keep  
your cordless and cellular telephones away from  
the TV.  
End of life directives  
Your TV contains tin-lead solder and a fluorescent  
lamp containing a small amount of mercury.  
Disposal of these materials may be regulated for  
environmental reasons. Your TV also contains  
material that can be recycled and reused. For  
disposal or recycling information, contact your local  
authorities to find a recycler in your area.  
Non-active pixels  
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.

Notes  
Use a coaxial cable to eliminate interference and  
noise from radio waves.  
Do not bundle the coaxial cable with the power  
cord or other cables.  
If the antenna is not installed correctly, contact  
qualified service personnel to correct the  
problem.  
If the signal level for a channel is weak, the  
picture may be distorted. Adjust the antenna or  
use a highly directional outdoor or set-top  
antenna with a built-in amplifier.  
If the picture quality is good on some channels  
and poor on others, the problem may be caused  
by a poor or weak signal from the broadcaster  
or cable TV provider.  
If you connect to cable or satellite TV without a  
set-top box and experience poor picture quality,  
you may need to install a set-top box to improve  
signal reception and picture quality. Contact  
your cable or satellite TV provider about  
upgrading to a set-top box.  
Many high-definition (HD) channels upscale  
standard-definition (SD) content. The picture  
displayed on your TV is still displayed as SD, thus  
the picture quality will not be as clear or crisp as  
it would be if the content was originally  
recorded in HD.  
Note  
You can also press HDMI repeatedly to select the  
DVD or Blu-ray player.
