Important Safety Instructions  
Your TV is designed and manufactured to operate within defined design limits.  
Misuse may result in electric shock or fire. To prevent your TV from being  
damaged, the following instructions should be observed for the installation,  
use, and maintenance of your TV. Read the following safety instructions before  
operating your TV. Keep these instructions in a safe place for future reference.  
When moving your TV from an area of low temperature to an area of  
high temperature, condensation may form in the housing. Wait before  
turning on your TV to avoid causing fire, electric shock, or component  
damage.  
A distance of at least three feet should be maintained between your TV  
and any heat source, such as a radiator, heater, oven, amplifier etc. Do  
not install your TV close to smoke. Operating your TV close to smoke  
or moisture may cause fire or electric shock.  
To reduce the risk of electric shock or component damage, switch off  
the power before connecting other components to your TV.  
Read these instructions.  
Keep these instructions.  
Heed all warnings.  
Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are provided  
for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of your TV and to protect it  
from overheating, be sure these openings are not blocked or covered.  
Do not place your TV in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper ventilation  
is provided.  
Follow all instructions.  
Do not use this apparatus near water.  
Clean only with a dry cloth.  
Never push any object into the slots and openings on your TV cabinet.  
Do not place any objects on the top of your TV. Doing so could short  
circuit parts causing a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquids on your  
TV.  
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.  
Your TV should be operated only from the type of power source  
indicated on the label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied  
to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.  
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type  
plug. A polarized 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.  
Do not apply pressure or throw objects at your TV. This may  
compromise the integrity of the display. The manufacturer’s warranty  
does not cover user abuse or improper installations.  
The power cord must be replaced when using different voltage than the  
voltage specified. For more information, contact your dealer.  
Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at  
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the  
apparatus.  
Your TV is equipped with a three-pronged grounded plug (a plug with  
a third grounding pin). This plug will fit only into a grounded power  
outlet. This is a safety feature. If your outlet does not accommodate the  
three-pronged, have an electrician install the correct outlet, or use an  
adapter to ground your TV safely. Do not defeat the safety purpose of  
the grounded plug.  
Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.  
Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table  
specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus.

Television Antenna Connection Protection  
DTV Transition Advisory  
If an outside antenna/satellite dish or cable system is to be connected to the TV,  
make sure that the antenna or cable system is electrically grounded to provide  
some protection against voltage surges and static charges.  
The nationwide switch to digital television broadcasting was complete on June  
12, 2009. Analog-only television sets that receive TV programming through an  
antenna now need a converter box to continue to receive over-the-air TV. Watch  
your local stations to find out when they will turn off their analog signal and switch  
to digital-only broadcasting. Analog-only TVs should continue to work as before  
to receive low power, Class A or translator television stations and with cable and  
satellite TV services, gaming consoles, VCRs, DVD players, and similar products.  
Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPSA 70, provides information  
with regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding  
of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of the grounding conductors,  
location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and  
requirements of the grounding electrode.  
For additional information, please contact the parties listed below, as appropriate:

FCC (US Federal Communications Commission)  
For added protection of the TV during a lightning storm or when it is left  
unattended or unused for long periods of time, unplug the TV from the wall outlet  
and disconnect the antenna or cable system.

The picture is distorted.  
When I change input source, the display image changes size.  
Nearby electrical devices may be interfering with the TV. Separate the  
TV from electrical appliances, cars, or flourescent lights.  
The TV remembers the viewing mode on each input source. If the  
viewing mode on the new input source differs from the one on the  
input source you switch from, the difference may be noticable.  
Ensure all cables are securely attached.  
The display image does not cover the entire screen.  
If you are in RGB mode (computer), ensure that H-Size and V-Position  
in the on-screen menu are set correctly.  
If you are using TV, AV1, AV2, or Component with 480i input, press  
the WIDE button on the remote to change the screen mode.  
The TV has pixels (dots) that are always dark or always lit.  
Your HDTV is precision-manufactured using an extremely high level  
of technology. However, sometimes pixels may not display correctly.  
These types of occurences are inherent to this type of product and do  
not constitute a defective product.  
I see “noise” or static on the screen.  
When your TV’s digital capabilities exceed a digital broadcast signal,  
the signal is up-converted (improved) to match your TV’s display  
capabilities. This up-converting can sometimes cause irregularities in  
the image.  
If you are using an antenna, the signal strength of the channel may be  
low. Ensure your antenna is connected securely to the TV and move  
the antenna around the room or close to a window for the best signal.  
When I change input source, the volume changes.  
The TV remembers the volume level on each input source. If the  
volume level on the new input source is higher or lower than the level  
on the source you switch from, the difference may be noticable.  
Use the Volume Up/Down buttons on the remote to adjust the  
volume.
