CHILD SAFETY  
It makes a difference how and where you use  
your flat panel display  
As you enjoy your new product, 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. We and the consumer electronics  
industry are committed to making home entertainment enjoyable and safe.  
TVs that are inappropriately placed on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers,  
chests, or carts may fall over and cause injury.  
Tune into safety  
One size of TV stand does not fit all. Use only a TV stand  
rated for the weight of your TV.  
Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for  
proper use of this product.  
Don’t let children to climb on or play with entertainment  
system furniture and TVs.  
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. Make sure  
that you place or install the TV where it cannot be pushed,  
pulled over, or knocked down.  
Make sure that you route all cords and cables so that they  
cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children.  
Wall mounting  
If you decide to wall mount your TV, always:  
One size of wall mount does not fit all. Use only a wall mount rated for the weight of your  
TV and that has been recommended by this TV manufacturer, listed in this manual, or  
otherwise listed by an independent laboratory (such as UL, CSA, or ETL) as suitable for  
your TV.  
Follow all instructions supplied by the TV and wall mount manufacturers.  
If you have any doubts about your ability to safely wall mount your TV, get help from a  
professional installer.  
Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the TV is  
appropriate. Some wall mounts are not designed to be mounted  
to walls backed with steel studs or cinder blocks. If you are  
unsure, ask a professional installer.  
TVs can be heavy. At least two people are required for safe wall mount installation.

result in a risk of fire or electric shock.  
Follow warnings and instructions  
Follow all warnings on your TV and in the operating instructions. Follow  
all operating and use instructions.  
Object and liquid entry  
Never push objects of any kind into your TV through openings because  
objects may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that  
could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on  
your TV.  
Water and moisture  
Do not use your TV near water. For example, do not use it near a bath  
tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near  
a swimming pool.  
Handling the LCD panel  
Cleaning  
• Do not press hard or jolt the LCD panel. It may cause the LCD  
panel glass to break and injury may occur.  
Unplug your TV before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.  
Use only a damp cloth to clean the exterior of your TV.  
• 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 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.  
Note: If your TV requires uninterrupted service for some specific reason,  
such as the possibility of the loss of an authorization code for a CATV  
converter, ignore the instruction to unplug your TV before cleaning.  
Ventilation  
Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided  
for ventilation, reliable operation, and protection from overheating.  
These openings must not be blocked or covered. Do not block the  
openings by placing your TV on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface.  
Do not place your TV near or over a radiator or heat register. Do not  
place your TV in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or rack, unless  
you provide correct ventilation or follow the manufacturer’s  
instructions.  
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.

Important safety instructions  
• If your TV does not operate normally by following the operating  
Outdoor antenna grounding  
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.  
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.  
• If your TV has been dropped or damaged in any way.  
• When your TV exhibits a distinct change in performance.  
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.

For added protection for your TV’s 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 the antenna or cable system.  
This helps prevent damage to your TV from lightning and power line  
surges.  
Note to CATV system installer  
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to  
Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for correct grounding  
and in particular, specifies that the cable ground must be connected to  
the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry  
as practical.  
Screen protection  
Your TV’s screen is made of glass. Do not drop your TV or hit the glass  
screen. If the screen breaks, be careful of broken glass.  
About after-image  
The extended use of fixed image program material can cause a  
permanent after-image on the screen. This background image is  
viewable on normal programs in the form of a stationary, fixed image.  
This type of irreversible screen deterioration can be limited by observing  
the following steps:  
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.  
• Reduce the brightness/contrast settings to a minimum viewing  
level.  
• Do not display a fixed image for extended periods of time.  
• Turn the power off when not in actual use.  
Power lines  
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of  
overhead power lines or other electric light of power circuits, or where it  
can fall into such power lines or circuits.  
Important information regarding the use of video games,  
computers, captions, or other fixed-image displays.  
Do not allow a still picture to be displayed for an extended period of  
time, because this can cause a permanent after-image to remain on the  
screen. Examples of still pictures include logos, video games, computer  
images, teletext, and images displayed in 4:3 mode.  
Cautions:  
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.  
The permanent after-image on the screen, resulting from fixed image use,  
is not an operating defect and, as such, is not covered by the warranty.  
This product is not designed to display fixed images for extended periods  
of time.
