Instructions  
CAUTION  
excessive heat such as sunshine, fire, or the like.  
18 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.  
WARNING  
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK  
Electric shock hazard  
DO NOT OPEN  
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 dry cloth.  
Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in  
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.  
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.  
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.  
Handling the LCD panel  
8
9
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.  
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.  
Replacement parts  
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 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  
S3125A  
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.  
Servicing  
These servicing instructions are for use by qualified service  
personnel only. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not  
perform any servicing other than that contained in the  
operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so.  
15 The wall plug is the disconnecting device. The plug  
must remain readily operable.  
16 An apparatus with 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 the Class I apparatus to a grounding-type,  
three-prong outlet.

Condensation  
CAUTION  
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.  
Damage requiring service  
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.  
If your TV does not operate normally by following the  
operating 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.  
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.  
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, 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.  
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.

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.
