screen to direct illumination or sunlight. Use spot
lighting directed down from the ceiling if you can.

¸ Although the LCD screen is made with high-
precision technology and has effective
pixels of 99.99% or more, black dots or
bright points or light (red, blue, or green)
may appear constantly on the LCD screen.
This is a structural property of the LCD
panel and is not a malfunction.
¸ The LCD screen is made with high-precision
technology. To achieve a high level of
performance and picture quality, this TV’s
backlight setting is set to maximize the
brightness of the TV. However, uneven
brightness may be observed when the LCD TV
is viewed in a dark environment without an
input source or a blank screen. This is a normal
condition, not a malfunction of the TV. To
improve this condition, change the Picture
mode, Backlight setting, enable the Light
Sensor, or turn on the Power management.
¸ Avoid exposing the LCD screen surface to
direct sunlight. It is likely to damage the LCD
panel.

yourself, since opening the cabinet
may expose you to dangerous
voltage or other hazards. Ask qualified service

occur in the picture or the picture may become
dark. This does not indicate a failure. These
phenomena improve as the temperature rises.
¸ When still pictures are displayed continuously,
ghosting may occur. It should disappear after a
short period of time.

Upon completion of repairs to the TV, ask the
service technician to perform routine safety
checks (as specified by the manufacturer) to
determine that the TV is safe for operating, and
to so certify. Ask a qualified service technician
to dispose of the TV.
