IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Caring for the Liquid Crystal panel
• Turn off the main power and unplug the AC cord from the wall outlet before handling.
• Gently wipe the surface of the display panel with a soft cloth (cotton, fl annel, etc.).
To protect the display panel, do not use a dirty cloth, liquid cleaners, or a chemical cloth (wet/dry
sheet type cloth, etc.). This may damage the surface of the display panel.
• Wiping with a hard cloth or using strong force may scratch the surface of the display panel.
• Use a soft damp cloth to gently wipe the display panel when it is really dirty.
(It may scratch the surface of the display panel when wiped strongly.)
• If the display panel is dusty, use an anti-static brush, which is commercially available, to clean it.
• To avoid scratching the frame or screen, please use a soft, lint free cloth for cleaning. Approved cleaning cloths are
available directly from Sharp in single (00Z-LCD-CLOTH) or triple (00Z-LCD-CLOTH-3) packs. Call 1-800-BE-SHARP for
ordering, or VISIT http://www.sharpusa.com/SharpDirect.
CHILD SAFETY:
PROPER TELEVISION PLACEMENT MATTERS
THE CONSUMER ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY CARES
• Manufacturers, retailers and the rest of the consumer electronics industry are committed to making
home entertainment safe and enjoyable.
• As you enjoy your television, please note that all televisions – new and old- must be supported on
proper stands or installed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Televisions that are
inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers, chests, carts, etc., may
fall over, resulting in injury.
TUNE IN TO SAFETY
•
ALWAYS
follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the safe installation of your television.
•
ALWAYS
read and follow all instructions for proper use of your television.
•
NEVER
allow children to climb on or play on the television or the furniture on which the television is
placed.
•
NEVER
place the television on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a chest of
drawers.
•
ALWAYS
install the television where it cannot be pushed, pulled over or knocked down.
•
ALWAYS
route cords and cables connected to the television so that they cannot be tripped over,
pulled or grabbed.
WALL OR CEILING MOUNT YOUR TELEVISION
•
ALWAYS
contact your retailer about professional installation if you have any doubts about your
ability to safely mount your television.
•
ALWAYS
use a mount that has been recommended by the television manufacturer and has a safety
certifi cation by an independent laboratory (such as UL, CSA, ETL).
•
ALWAYS
follow all instructions supplied by the television and mount manufacturers.
•
ALWAYS
make sure that the wall or ceiling where you are mounting the television is appropriate.
Some mounts are not designed to be mounted to walls and ceilings with steel studs or cinder block
construction. If you are unsure, contact a professional installer.
• Televisions can be heavy. A minimum of two people is required for a wall or ceiling mount installation.
MOVING AN OLDER TELEVISION TO A NEW PLACE IN YOUR HOME
• Many new television buyers move their older CRT televisions into a secondary room after the
purchase of a fl at-panel television. Special care should be made in the placement of older CRT
televisions.
•
ALWAYS
place your older CRT television on furniture that is sturdy and appropriate for its size and
weight.
•
NEVER
place your older CRT television on a dresser where children may be tempted to use the
drawers to climb.

ALWAYS
make sure your older CRT television does not hang over the edge of your furniture.
