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.
Tu n e  i n t o  s a f e t y
•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 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 crate or 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.
Wa ll  mo u n tin g
If you decide to wall mount your TV, always remember:
•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 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.

pinched particularly at plugs, convenience 
receptacles, and the point where they exit from 
the apparatus.
11Only use attachments/accessories specified by 
the manufacturer. 
12Use only with the cart, stand, 
tripod, bracket, or table specified 
by the manufacturer, or sold with 
the apparatus. When a cart is 
used, use caution when moving 
the cart/apparatus combination 
to avoid injury from tip-over. 
13Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms 
or when unused for long periods of time.14Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. 
Servicing is required when the apparatus has 
been damaged in any way, such as 
power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid 
has been spilled or objects have fallen into the 
apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to 
rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or 
has been dropped.
15The wall plug is the disconnecting device. The 
plug must remain readily operable.

like.
17The apparatus should not be exposed to 
dripping or splashing, and no objects filled with 
liquids, such as vases, should be placed on the 
apparatus.
WA R N I N G
Electric shock hazard
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not 
remove any cover or expose the device to rain or 
moisture. No user-serviceable parts are inside. Refer 
servicing to qualified service technicians.
Lightning
For added protection for your device 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 disconnec t any 
antenna or cable system. This helps prevent 
property damage and personal injury from 
lightning and power line surges.
Power lines
An outside antenna system should not be located in 
the vicinity of overhead power lines or other 
electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall 
into such power lines or circuits. When installing an 
outside antenna system, take extreme care to keep 
from touching such power lines or circuits as 
contact with them might be fatal.
Handling the LCD panel
• Your TV’s screen is made of glass. Do not drop 
your TV or hit, jolt, or press hard against the LCD 
panel. If the screen breaks, be careful of broken 
glass. 
• 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, rinse, 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. 
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.
CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
This symbol indicates that 
dangerous voltage 
constituting a risk of electric 
shock is present within your TV. 
This label is located on the 
back of your TV.
This symbol indicates that 
there are important operating 
and maintenance instructions 
in the literature accompanying 
your TV.

Safety check
After completing any service or repair to this device, 
ask the service technician to perform routine safety 
checks to determine that your TV is in correct 
operating condition.
Power source
Operate your TV only from the type of power source 
indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure 
of the type of power supplied to your home, consult 
an electrician or your local power company.
Servicing
These servicing instructions are for use by qualified 
service personnel only. To reduce the risk of electric 
shock, do not perform any servicing other than that 
contained in the operating instructions unless you 
are qualified to do so.
CAUTION
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.
• If your T V does not operate normally by following 
the operating instructions. Adjust only those 
controls 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 your TV has been dropped or damaged in any 
way.
• When your TV exhibits a distinct change in 
performance.
Outdoor antenna grounding
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.Note to CATV system installer
Article 820 of the National Electrical Code, 
ANSI/NFPA No. 40 provides guidance for correct 
grounding. Specifically, it states that the cable 
ground must be connected to the grounding 
system of the building as close to the point of cable 
entry as practical. 
Condensation
Moisture will form on the TV if the TV is brought 
from cool surroundings into a warm room or if the 
temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this 
happens, the TV's performance may be impaired. To 
prevent this, let the TV 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 TV is exposed to the breeze from an air 
conditioner. In such cases, change the location of 
the TV. 
Mobile telephone warning
To avoid interference with your TV picture and 
sound, operating problems, or even damage, keep 
your cordless and cellular telephones away from 
the T V.
End of life directives
Your TV contains tin-lead solder containing a small 
amount of mercury. Disposal of this material may 
be regulated for environmental reasons. Your TV 
also contains material that can be recycled and 
reused. For disposal or recycling information, 
contact your local authorities to find a recycler in 
your area.
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.Antenna lead-in wire
