•
Before moving, installing, removing or connecting
the video display to peripheral devices, turn off
the video display and all connected devices and
unplug their power plugs.
Failing to do so can cause fire, electric shock or
malfunction.
•
For your safety, unplug the power plug from the
power outlet when not using the video display for
extended periods of time.
Dust buildup on the power plug can cause fire.
•
Do not obstruct the access to the power plug so it
can always be easily unplugged.
Failing to disconnect the power plug immediately after
unusual circumstances have occurred can cause fire or
electric shock.
•
Do not block the ventilation holes.
Blocking the video display's vent holes can result in the
internal temperature rising and cause fire or malfunction.
Observe the following precautions to ensure proper
ventilation.
-
Do not push the video display into narrow confined
spaces or enclosures.
-
Do not wrap the video display in cloth or other
materials.
-
Do not place the video display facing up, lay it

•
If the screen is damaged, do not touch the leaking
liquid crystal or other internal liquids.
If the LCD panel is damaged and liquid crystal or other
internal liquids leak out, do not put the liquids in the
mouth, inhale or swallow it or let it come in contact with
the skin. If the liquids get in the eye or mouth, wash it
immediately with plenty of water. If the liquids come in
contact with the skin or clothes, wipe them immediately
with alcohol etc. and wash the exposed area with
soap. Leaving the liquids untreated can cause injury or
damage.

Use the carrying handle to carry the video display.
When carrying the video display, be sure to hold it by
the carrying handle. Failure to do so could cause the

Take precautions to prevent the video display from
tipping or falling.
In an earthquake the video display can tip or fall. For
your safety, when installing the video display on a TV
stand or other furniture, take precautionary measures to
secure the video display against tipping or falling. Taking
such measures can be effective in reducing the risk of
injury or damage but the effectiveness of the prevention
measures cannot be guaranteed in all earthquakes.

Follow the procedure in this manual to install the
video display.
If the installation is not performed correctly, the video
display may tilt or fall and cause injury.
•
Inspect the condition of the installation about

immediately and rest. If you continue to feel discomfort,
consult a physician.
