CARE AND MAINTENANCE 

 
Care 

 

Avoid exposing your LCD TV directly to sunlight or other heat source.

 

 

Place your LCD TV away from the sun to reduce glare.

 

 

Put your LCD TV in a well ventilated area. Do not place anything heavy on top of your LCD 
TV.

 

 

Make certain your LCD TV is installed in a clean and moisture-free area.

 

 

Keep your LCD TV away from magnets, motors, transformers, speakers, and TV sets. 

 

Safety Tips 

 

If smoke, abnormal noise or odor came out of your LCD TV, remove the power cord 
immediately and call your service center.

 

 

CAUTION-Never remove the rear cover of your LCD TV cabinet. The display unit inside 
contains high-voltage parts and may cause electric shock to human bodies.

 

 

Never try to repair your LCD TV yourself. Always call your service center or a qualified 
technician to fix it.

 

 
 

TROUBLESHOOTING 

 

No power 

 

Make sure A/C power cord is securely connected.

 

 

Plug another electrical device into the power outlet to verify that the outlet is supplying proper 
voltage. 

 

Power on but no screen image 

 

Make sure the video cable supplied with the TV is tightly secured to the video output port on 
back of video source (DVD, VCR…). If not, tightly secure it.

 

 

Adjust brightness.

 

 

Make sure all signal cables are installed.

 

 

Wrong or abnormal colors 

 

If any colors (red, green, blue) are missing, check the video cable to make sure it is securely 
connected. Loose or broken pins in the cable connector could cause an improper connection.

 

 

Connect the TV unit to another video source or use another TVs to make sure the video 
source was not causing the problem.
