Electricity is used to perform many useful functions, but it can also cause personal injuries and property damage
if improperly handled. This product has been engineered and manufactured with the highest priority on safety.
However, improper use can result in electric shock and/or fire. In order to prevent potential danger, please
observe the following instructions when installing, operating and cleaning the product. To ensure your safety
and prolong the service life of your LCD colour TV product, please read the following precautions carefully
before using the product.

1.

Read instructions—All operating instructions must be read and understood before the product is operated.

2.

Keep this manual in a safe place—These safety and operating instructions must be kept in a safe place for future
reference.

3.

Observe warnings—All warnings on the product and in the instructions must be observed closely.

4.

5.

Attachments—Do not use attachments not recommended by the manufacturer. Use of inadequate attachments can
result in accidents.

6.

Power source—This product must operate on a power source specified on the specification label. If you are not sure
of the type of power supply used in your home, consult your dealer or local power company.

7.

AC cord protection—The AC cords must be routed properly to prevent people from stepping on them or objects
from resting on them. Check the cords at the plugs and product.

8.

Overloading—Do not overload AC outlets or extension cords. Overloading can cause fire or electric shock.

9.

Entering of objects and liquids—Never insert an object into the product through vents or openings. High voltage
flows in the product, and inserting an object can cause electric shock and/or short internal parts. For the same
reason, do not spill water or liquid on the product.

10. Servicing—Do not attempt to service the product yourself. Removing covers can expose you to high voltage and

other dangerous conditions. Request a qualified service person to perform servicing.

11. Repair—If any of the following conditions occurs, unplug the AC cord from the AC outlet, and request a qualified

service person to perform repairs.

a. When the AC cord or plug is damaged.
b. When a liquid was spilled on the product or when objects have fallen into the product.
c. When the product has been exposed to rain or water.
d. When the product does not operate properly as described in the operating instructions.

Do not touch the controls other than those described in the operating instructions. Improper adjustment of
controls not described in the instructions can cause damage, which often requires extensive adjustment work
by a qualified technician.

e. When the product has been dropped or damaged.
f. When the product displays an abnormal condition. Any noticeable abnormality in the product indicates that

the product needs servicing.

12. Replacement parts—In case the product needs replacement parts, make sure that the service person uses

replacement parts specified by the manufacturer, or those with the same characteristics and performance as the
original parts. Use of unauthorised parts can result in fire, electric shock and/or other danger.

13. Safety checks—Upon completion of service or repair work, request the service technician to perform safety checks

to ensure that the product is in proper operating condition.

14. Wall or ceiling mounting—When mounting the product on a wall or ceiling, be sure to install the product according

to the method recommended by the manufacturer.

• Cleaning—Unplug the AC cord

from the AC outlet before cleaning
the product. Use a damp cloth to
clean the product. Do not use
liquid cleaners or aerosol
cleaners.

• Stand—Do not place the product

on an unstable cart, stand, tripod
or table. Doing so can cause the
product to fall, resulting in serious
personal injuries as well as
damage to the product. Use only
a cart, stand, tripod, bracket or
table recommended by the
manufacturer or sold with the
product. When mounting the
product on a wall, be sure to
follow the manufacturer’s
instructions. Use only the
mounting hardware recommended
by the manufacturer.

• When relocating the product

placed on a cart, it must be
moved with utmost care. Sudden
stops, excessive force and
uneven floor surface can cause
the product to fall from the cart.

• Water and moisture—Do not use

the product near water, such as
bathtub, washbasin, kitchen sink,
laundry tub, swimming pool and in
a wet basement.

• Ventilation—The vents and other

openings in the cabinet are
designed for ventilation. Do not
cover or block these vents and
openings since insufficient
ventilation can cause overheating
and/or shorten the life of the
product. Do not place the product
on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar
surface, since they can block
ventilation openings. This product
is not designed for built-in
installation; do not place the
product in an enclosed place
such as a bookcase or rack,
unless proper ventilation is
provided or the manufacturer’s
instructions are followed.

• The LCD panel used in this

product is made of glass.
Therefore, it can break when the
product is dropped or applied
with impact. Be careful not to be
injured by broken glass pieces in
case the LCD panel breaks.

• Heat sources—Keep the product

away from heat sources such as
radiators, heaters, stoves and
other heat-generating products
(including amplifiers).

• Do not place vases or any other

water-filled containers on this
product. The water may spill onto
the product causing fire or electric
shock.

• To prevent fire, never place any

type of candle or naked flames on
the top or near the TV set.

• To prevent fire or shock hazard,

do not place the AC power cord
under the TV set or other heavy
items.

The LCD panel is a very high technology product with
921,600 thin film transistors, giving you fine picture
details.
Due to the very large number of pixels, a few
non-active pixels may occasionally appear on the screen
as a fixed point of blue, green or red.
This is within product specifications and does not
constitute a fault.

Do not display a still picture for a long time, as this could
cause an afterimage to remain.

AC cord

*Product shape may vary

from country to country.

Before using the LCD TV set for the first time, install the two “AA” size batteries (supplied) in the remote control. When the
batteries become depleted and the remote control fails to operate, replace the batteries with new “AA” size batteries.

Open the battery cover.

Insert two “AA” size batteries.

Close the battery cover.

• Place batteries with their

terminals corresponding
to the (+) and (–)
indications in the battery
compartment.

Improper use of batteries can result in a leakage of chemicals and/or explosion. Be sure to follow the instructions below.
• Place batteries with their terminals corresponding to the (+) and (–) indications.
• Different types of batteries have different characteristics. Do not mix batteries of different types.
• Do not mix old and new batteries. Mixing old and new batteries can shorten the life of new batteries and/or cause old

batteries to leak chemicals.

• Remove batteries as soon as they are depleted. Chemicals that leak from batteries can cause a rash. If chemical

leakage is found, wipe it off with a cloth.

• The batteries supplied with the LCD TV set may have a shorter operating time due to storage conditions.
• If the remote control is not to be used for an extended period of time, remove the batteries from the remote control.

• Align the tab on the battery cover (1) and place

it while pressing the tab (2) to close it.

Use the remote control by pointing it towards the remote sensor
window of the main unit. Objects between the remote control and
sensor window may prevent proper operation.

Cautions regarding use of the remote control
• Do not apply shock to the remote control. In addition, do not

expose the remote control to liquids, and do not place it in an area
with high humidity.

• Do not install or place the remote control under direct sunlight. The

heat may cause deformation of the unit.

• The remote control may not work properly if the remote sensor

window is under direct sunlight or strong lighting. In such a case,
change the angle of the lighting or main unit, or operate the remote
control closer to the remote sensor window.

• Detach the cover

while pressing the
(

") part.
