Care of the screen

Do not touch, push or rub or strike the screen with anything hard as this may scratch, mar or damage
the screen permanently. And please do not rub with dust clothes with chemical treatment.
Do not touch the surface with bare hands or greasy cloth (some cosmetics are detrimental to the
screen). Unplug the TV before cleaning the screen.
When the surface becomes dusty, please wipe gently with absorbent cotton or other soft materials
like chamois soaks. Do not use acetone, toluene and alcohol because they cause chemical damage. Do
not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.Wipe off saliva or water drops as soon as possible.Their
long time contact with the screen causes deformations and colour fading.
