CHILD SAFETY:  
It Makes A Difference How and Where You Use TV  
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 TVs are popular purchases. However, TVs are not  
always supported on the proper stands or installed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.  
TVs 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 TV.  
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 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. 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 TV so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious  
children.

Important Safety Instructions  
CONDENSATION  
Moisture will form in the operating section of the unit if the unit is brought from cool surroundings  
into a warm room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, unit’s  
performance will be impaired. To prevent this, let the unit 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 unit is exposed to the breeze from an air  
conditioner. In such cases, change the location of the unit.  
HOW TO HANDLE THE LED PANEL  
tꢀ Do not press hard or jolt the LED panel. It may cause the LED panel glass to break and injury may  
occur.  
tꢀ If the LED panel is broken, make absolutely sure that you do not touch the liquid in the panel. This may  
cause skin inflammation.  
tꢀ If the liquid gets in your mouth, immediately gargle 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.  
Possible Adverse Effects on LED Panel:  
If a fixed (non-moving) pattern remains on the LED Panel for long periods of time, the image can become  
permanently engrained in the LED Panel and cause subtle but permanent ghost images. This type of  
damage is NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY. Never leave your TV on for long periods of time while it is  
displaying the following formats or images:  
tꢀ Fixed Images, such as stock tickers, video game patterns, TV station logos, and websites.  
tꢀ Special Formats that do not use the entire screen. For example, viewing letterbox style (16:9)  
media on a normal (4:3) display (black bars at top and bottom of screen); or viewing normal  
style (4:3) media on a widescreen (16:9) display (black bars on left and right sides of screen).  
The following symptoms are not signs of malfunction but technical limitation.  
tꢀ LED Panels are manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology, however  
sometimes parts of the screen may be missing picture elements or have luminous spots. This is not a  
sign of a malfunction.  
tꢀ Do not install the TV near electronic equipment that produces electromagnetic waves. Some  
equipment placed too near this unit may cause interference.  
tꢀ Effect on infrared devices – There may be interference while using infrared devices such as  
infrared cordless headphones.
