Safety information

Safety information

Warning

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover or back. 
There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified 
service personnel.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose your TV to rain 
or moisture.

Caution

To prevent electric shock, match the wide blade on the power cord plug 
to the wide slot on an electric outlet. If the plug does not fit, consult a 
licensed electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not modify the 
power cord plug, or you will defeat this safety feature.

Warnings

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other 
than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation 
exposure. 
The TV should be connected to an AC power outlet with a protective 
grounding connection.
To prevent injury, this apparatus must be securely attached to the 
floor/wall in accordance with the installation instructions.
Always place the TV on the floor or a sturdy, level, stable surface that 
will support the weight of the unit.
Installing the TV requires special skill that should only be performed by 
qualified service personnel. 
Customers should not attempt to do the work themselves. Insignia 
bears no responsibility for improper mounting or mounting that 
results in accident or injury.

Caution

The AC power plug is used as the disconnect device, so the AC power 
plug shall always remain readily operable.

Read instructions

Read all of the safety and operating instructions before you use your TV.

Retain instructions

Retain safety and operating instructions for future reference.

Follow warnings and instructions

Follow all warnings on your TV and in the operating instructions. Follow 
all operating and use instructions.

Water and moisture

Do not use your TV near water. For example, do not use it near a bath 
tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a 
swimming pool.

Cleaning

Unplug your TV before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. 
Use only a damp cloth to clean the exterior of your TV.

Ventilation

Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided 
for ventilation, reliable operation, and protection from overheating. 
These openings must not be blocked or covered. Do not block the 

openings by placing your TV on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. 
Do not place your TV near or over a radiator or heat register. Do not 
place your TV in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or rack, unless 
you provide correct ventilation or follow the manufacturer’s 
instructions.

Heat

Make sure that your TV is located away from heat sources such as 
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (including amplifiers) 
that produce heat.

Grounding or polarization

Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type 
plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A 
grounding type plug has two blades and a grounding prong. The wide 
blade or grounding prong are provided for your safety. If the plug does 
not fit, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet.

Power cord protection

Route power cords so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched 
by items placed on or against them. Pay particular attention to cords at 
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from your 
TV.

Attachments

Use only attachments recommended by Insignia.

Stand

Do not place your TV on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, 
bracket, or table. Your TV may fall, causing serious 
personal injury and serious damage to your TV. Use only 
with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended 
by the manufacturer, or sold with your TV. If you mount 
your TV to the wall, follow the manufacturer’s instructions and use a 
mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer. Your TV and 
cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive 
force, and uneven surfaces may cause your TV and cart combination to 
overturn.

Lightning

For added protection for your TV’s receiver during a lightning storm, or 
when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug 
it from the power outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. 
This helps prevent damage to your TV from lightning and power line 
surges.

Servicing

Do not attempt to service your TV yourself because opening or 
removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other 
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Replacement parts

When replacement parts are required, make sure that the service 
technician uses replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that 
have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized 
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, personal injury, or other 
hazards.

Overloading

Do not overload power outlets and extension cords because this can 
result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

Object and liquid entry

Never push objects of any kind into your TV through openings because 
objects may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that 
could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on 
your TV.

Damage requiring service

Unplug this TV from the power outlet and refer servicing to qualified 
service personnel under the following conditions:

• When the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed.

This symbol indicates that dangerous 
voltage constituting a risk of electric shock is 
present within your TV. This label is located 
on the back of your TV.

This symbol indicates that there are 
important operating and maintenance 
instructions in the literature accompanying 
your TV.
