• The front panel used in this product is made of glass. Therefore, it can break when the product is dropped or applied with  
impact. Be careful not to be injured by broken glass pieces in case the panel breaks.  
• Heat — The product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other  
products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.  
• The Liquid Crystal panel is a very high technology product with 2,073,600 pixels, giving you fine picture details.  
Occasionally, a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green or red. Please note that  
this does not affect the performance of your product.  
• Lightning — For added protection for this television equipment during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and  
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage to  
the equipment due to lightning and power-line surges.  
• 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.  
• To prevent fire, never place any type of candle or flames on the top or near the TV set.

Precautions when transporting the TV  
• When transporting the TV, never carry it by holding or otherwise putting pressure onto the display. Be sure to always  
carry the TV by two people holding it with two hands — one hand on each side of the TV.  
Caring for the cabinet  
• Use a soft cloth (cotton, flannel, etc.) and gently wipe the surface of the cabinet.  
• Using a chemical cloth (wet/dry sheet type cloth, etc.) may deform the components of the main unit cabinet or cause  
cracking.  
• Wiping with a hard cloth or using strong force may scratch the surface of the cabinet.  
• If the cabinet is very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth (cotton, flannel, etc.) soaked in neutral detergent diluted with water and  
thoroughly wrung out, and then wipe with a soft dry cloth.  
• Avoid using benzene, thinner, and other solvents, as these may deform the cabinet and cause the paint to peel off.  
• Do not apply insecticides or other volatile liquids.  
Also, do not allow the cabinet to remain in contact with rubber or vinyl products for a long period of time. Plasticizers  
inside the plastic may cause the cabinet to deform and cause the paint to peel off.

CHILD SAFETY:  
It Makes A Difference How and Where You Use Your Flat Panel Display  
Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new product, please keep these safety tips in mind:  
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 MANUFACTURER 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 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.

Introduction to Connections  
Experiencing HD Images  
An HDTV without an HD source is just an ordinary TV.  
To enjoy HD images on the TV, you should get HD programming from the following:  
• Over-the-air broadcasting via HD quality antenna  
• HD cable/satellite subscription  
• HD compatible external equipment  
• For information on updating to HD programming, ask your cable/satellite service provider.  
Types of Connection  
Image quality differs depending on the terminal used. To enjoy clearer images, check the output terminals of your  
external equipment and use its appropriate terminals for higher quality images.  
For connecting the TV to external equipment, use commercially available cables.  
• The illustrations of the terminals are for explanation purposes and may vary slightly from the actual products.

Closed Captions and Digital Closed Captions  
Your TV is equipped with an internal Closed Caption  
decoder. It allows you to view conversations, narration  
and sound effects as subtitles on your TV. Closed  
Captions are available on some TV programs and on  
some VHS home video tapes at the discretion of the  
program provider.  
Press CC.

Digital Closed Caption service is a new caption service  
available only on digital TV programs (also at the  
discretion of the service provider). It is a more flexible  
system than the original Closed Caption system,  
because it allows for a variety of caption sizes and font  
styles. When the Digital Closed Caption service is in  
use, it will be indicated by the appearance of a 3-letter  
abbreviation that also indicates the language of the  
Digital Closed Captions: ENG (English), SPA (Spanish),  
FRA (French) or other language codes.

Ratings  
• Depending on the number of caption services in the  
signal being received, you will see information such as  
1/2 or 1/4 displayed.  
1/2 means “the first of two services”.  
Example:  
If a program has three services (Digital CC(ENG), CC1  
and Text1), the closed caption display will toggle in this  
sequence:  
Not all programs and VHS videotapes offer closed  
captions. Please look for the “

” symbol to ensure

In the Closed Caption system, there can be more than  
one caption service provided. Each is identified by its  
own number. The “CC1” and “CC2” services display  
subtitles of TV programs superimposed over the  
program's picture.  
1/3 ENG  
2/3 CC1  
3/3 Text1  
Off  
• The CC button keeps a record of the last service  
selected in its memory.  
If the last closed caption mode (e.g. 1/3 ENG) you  
selected is not available for the next program, or on  
another channel, the closed caption service that is  
available is automatically selected, and this service  
appears in parentheses, e.g. “1/3(CC1)”.  
Closed Caption services that appear in parentheses will  
not be stored in the CC button's memory as your last  
selected service. Only services that you have selected  
with the CC button are stored.  
In the Closed Caption system, the “Text1” or “Text2”  
services display text that is unrelated to the program  
being viewed (e.g., weather or news). These services  
are also superimposed over the program currently  
being viewed.  
Examples:  
In a case where there are two closed caption  
services provided (for instance, Digital CC(ENG)  
and CC1), and Digital CC(ENG) is displayed  
as your current selection, if Digital CC(ENG) is  
not broadcast for the next program, the other  
closed caption service, CC1, will be displayed in  
parentheses.  
A closed caption service appears in parentheses  
because the service you selected is not available  
and a different service is displayed on your screen.  
“1/1(CC1)” is displayed instead of “1/2/ENG”.  
• When “Power Saving” is set to “Standard” or “Advanced”,  
the Power Saving leaf icon appears on the channel  
information window. See page 29 for details of Power  
Saving settings.  
• See page 32 for detailed closed caption settings.  
• When the program contains no closed caption, “--”  
displays in the closed caption information.  
• If the language code, e.g. “ENG”, is not found on Digital TV  
programs, “--” will be shown.  
• Four kinds of closed caption service (CC1, CC2, Text1,  
Text2) are potentially available, but a broadcast may  
contain none or only some of these services at the  
discretion of the program provider.  
• When TV+Web or Web is displayed, Closed Captions are  
not available.  
• You can have the same settings by choosing "Change CC"  
on the menu items. (See page 31.)

Modem  
Internet  
• This TV has a built-in wireless LAN function. Using a separate wireless USB LAN adapter may result in radio communications  
that do not comply with regulations on radio communications. Therefore, do not use a separate wireless LAN adapter.  
• This TV has received the following certifications.  
- Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ (certification program from the Wi-Fi Alliance® )  
- Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ (certification program from the Wi-Fi Alliance® )  
• Operations cannot be guaranteed when used with access points that do not have Wi-Fi® certification.  
• A wireless LAN router/access point is required to connect the TV to the Internet using a wireless LAN. See the operation  
manual of your access point for setup.  
• If your access point is set to a stealth mode (that prevents detection by other devices), you may not be able to establish a  
connection. In this case, disable the stealth mode on the access point.  
• A wireless LAN connection and performance cannot be guaranteed for all residential environments. In the following cases, the  
wireless LAN signal may be poor or drop, or the connection speed may become slower.  
- When used in buildings made with concrete, reinforced steel, or metal  
- When placed near objects that obstruct the signal  
- When used with other wireless devices that emit the same frequency  
- When used in the vicinity of microwave ovens and other devices that emit a magnetic field, electrostatic charge, or  
electromagnetic interference  
• When there is significant interference in the 2.4-GHz frequency (such as from other wireless LAN devices, Bluetooth® devices,  
2.4-GHz cordless telephones, and microwave ovens), it is recommended that you use a wireless LAN router/access point that  
supports IEEE802.11a/n (5 GHz) and set the access point to transmit at 5 GHz. For setup details, see the operation manual of  
your access point.  
• For users outside the United States, be sure to select your country before using the wireless LAN function. (See page 61.)  
• A stable connection speed is required to play back streaming content. Use an Ethernet connection if the wireless LAN speed  
is unstable.  
• Before transferring to a third party or disposal, be sure to initialize the wireless LAN settings.  
• Please follow the legislation in your country when using the wireless LAN outdoors.

settings and output audio format in Sound Properties on the PC.  
Only PCM format audio can be output. Compressed audio (with a sampling rate  
of 32kHz, 44.1kHz, or 48kHz) and DTS format audio cannot be output.  
- Depending on the board, only video signals may be output. In this case, in  
addition to connecting an HDMI-certified cable to the HDMI 1 terminal, connect a  
Ø 3.5 mm stereo minijack cable to the AUDIO IN terminal and set "Audio Select"  
to "HDMI+Analog". Page 56  
• If you are using a DVI-HDMI conversion cable to connect external equipment to the  
TV, check the following:  
- Is an audio cable connected? The DVI-HDMI conversion cable is for video only.  
Connect a Ø 3.5 mm stereo minijack cable to listen to the audio.  
- Is HDMI 1 being used? When the TV is connected to another HDMI terminal, the  
audio and video are not output together even if a Ø 3.5 mm stereo minijack cable  
is connected to the shared AUDIO IN terminal for PC IN and HDMI 1.  
-
Check the "Audio Select" setting. Set "Audio Select" to "HDMI+Analog". Page 56

product improvement without prior notice. The performance specification figures indicated are nominal values of production  
units. There may be some deviations from these values in individual units.  
Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments  
• When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, office), the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed.  
This is not a malfunction, and the unit will recover when the temperature returns to normal.  
• Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a  
heater, as this may cause the cabinet to deform and the front panel to malfunction.
