 CAUTION

 

Do not use any unapproved items to ensure the 

safety and lifespan of the product. 

 

Any damages or injuries by using unapproved 

items are not covered by the warranty. 

 

Some models appear to have a thin film on the 

screen. It is actually part of the screen; do not 

remove it.

 

When attaching the stand to the TV set, place 

the screen facing down on a cushioned table or 

flat surface to protect the screen from scratches.

 

Make sure that the screws are fastened tightly. 

(If they are not fastened securely enough, the TV 

may tilt forward after being installed.)

 

Do not fasten the screws with excessive force 

otherwise they may be worn out and become 

loose.

Maintenance

Cleaning your TV

Clean your TV regularly to keep it at peak 

performance and to extend the product’s lifespan.

 CAUTION

 

Before cleaning, turn the power off and 

disconnect the power cord and all other cables.

 

When the TV is left unattended or unused for a 

long time, disconnect the power cord from the 

wall outlet to prevent possible damage from 

lightning or power surges.

Screen, frame, cabinet, and stand

To remove dust or light dirt, wipe the surface with 

a dry, clean, and soft cloth. 

To remove major dirt, wipe the surface with a soft 

cloth dampened in clean water or a diluted mild 

detergent. Then wipe immediately with a dry cloth.

 CAUTION

 

Do not push, rub, or hit the surface with your 

fingernail or a sharp object, as this may result in 

scratches on the screen and image distortions.

 

Do not use any chemicals, such as waxes, 

benzene, alcohol, thinners, insecticides, air 

fresheners, or lubricants, as these may damage 

the screen’s finish and cause discoloration.

 

Do not spray liquid onto the surface. If water 

enters the TV, it may result in fire, electric shock, 

or malfunction.

Power cord

Remove the accumulated dust or dirt on the power 

cord regularly.
