WARNING  
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit to  
rain or moisture.  
Important Information  
Please read the following information on using and  
maintaining the TV, for optimum viewing quality.  
Dangerously high voltages are present inside the set. Do  
not open the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified  
personnel only.  
Picture Quality  
Avoid touching the screen, and take care not to scratch  
the surface with hard objects.  
Illumination  
Safety Information  
All TVs operate on extremely high voltages. To prevent  
fire or electric shock, please follow the safety procedures  
below. For your protection, refer all servicing to qualified  
personnel only.  
To obtain a clear picture, do not expose the screen to  
direct illumination or direct sunlight. If possible, use spot  
lighting directed down from the ceiling.  
Installation  
To prevent over heating of the set, do not block the  
ventilation openings.  
For general safety:  
Do not expose the TV to rain or moisture.  
Do not open the rear cover.  
Do not install the TV in a hot or humid place, or in a place  
subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical  
vibration.  
After transporting the TV directly from a cold to a warm  
location, or if the room temperature has changed  
suddenly, pictures may be blurred or show poor colour  
over portions of the picture. This is because moisture has  
condensed on the mirrors or lenses inside the TV. Let the  
moisture evaporate before using the TV.  
For safe operations:  
Do not operate the TV on any other voltages, but 220–  
240 V AC.  
Do not operate the TV if any liquid or solid object falls in it  
- have it checked immediately.  
Do not keep the set plugged in if you are not going to use  
it for several days.  
Do not pull on the power cord to disconnect the TV. Pull it  
out by the plug.  
Do not place anything on the surface of the front panel  
cover when you open it.  
Maintenance  
Save the original shipping carton and packing material to  
use if you ever have to ship your TV. For maximum  
protection, repack your TV as it was originally packed at  
the factory.  
To keep the cabinet looking brand-new, periodically clean  
it with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a  
cloth slightly dampened with a mild detergent solution.  
Never use strong solvents such as thinner or benzene, or  
abrasive cleaners since these will damage the cabinet. As  
a safety precaution, unplug the TV before cleaning it.  
To remove dust from the front of the screen, unplug the  
TV and wipe gently with a soft cloth lightly dampened with  
water or a mild detergent solution, using vertical strokes  
only. Then wipe it with a dry, soft cloth. Never use  
solvents or thinners for cleaning purposes.  
If the picture turns dark after the TV has been in use for a  
long period of time, it may be necessary to clean the  
inside of the TV. Consult qualified service personnel for  
this.
