Display panel, Cabinet, Pedestal
Regular care:
Gently wipe the surface of the display panel, cabinet,
or pedestal by using a soft cloth to clean the dirt or
fingerprints.
For stubborn dirt:
(1) First clean the dust on the surface.
(2) Dampen a soft cloth with clean water or diluted
neutral detergent (1 part detergent to 100 parts
water).
(3) Wring the cloth firmly. (Please note liquids do not
enter the TV inside. May lead to product failure.)
(4) Finally, wipe away all the moisture.
Caution
Do not use a hard cloth or rub the surface too hard,
otherwise this may cause scratches on the surface.
Take care not to subject the surfaces to insect
repellent, solvent, thinner or other volatile substances.
This may degrade surface quality or cause peeling of
the paint.
The surface of the display panel is specially treated
and may be easily damaged. Take care not to tap or
scratch the surface with your fingernail or other hard
objects.
Do not allow the cabinet and pedestal to make
contact with a rubber or PVC substance for a long
time. This may degrade surface quality.
Mains plug
Wipe the mains plug with a dry cloth at regular intervals.
Moisture and dust may cause fire or electrical shock.
