y
Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or
when unused for long periods of time.
y
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord
or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled objects
have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus
has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not
operate normally, or has been dropped.
y
Do not stick metal objects or any other conductive
material into the power cord. Do not touch the
end of the power cord while it is plugged in.
y
Keep the packing anti-moisture material or vinyl
packing out of the reach of children. Anti-moisture
material is harmful if swallowed. If swallowed,
induce vomiting and go to the nearest hospital.
Additionally, vinyl packing can cause suffocation.
Keep it out of the reach of children.
y
CAUTION concerning the Power Cord
(Can differ by country):
Check the specification page of this owner’s
manual to be certain. Do not connect too many
appliances to the same AC power outlet as this
could result in fire or electric shock. Do not
overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall outlets,
loose or damaged wall outlets, extension cords,
frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire
insulation are dangerous. Any of these conditions
could result in electric shock or fire. Periodically
examine the cord of your appliance, and if its
appearance indicates damage or deterioration,
unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance, and
have the cord replaced with an exact replacement
part by an authorized service. Protect the power
cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such
as being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in a
door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to
plugs, wall outlets, and the point where the cord
exits the appliance. Do not move the TV with the
power cord plugged in. Do not use a damaged or
loose power cord. Be sure do grasp the plug when
unplugging the power cord. Do not pull on the
power cord to unplug the TV.
y
Warning
- To reduce the risk of fire or electrical
shock, do not expose this product to rain,
moisture, or other liquids. Do not touch the TV
with wet hands. Do not install this product near
flammable objects such as gasoline or candles, or
expose the TV to direct air conditioning.
y
Do not expose to dripping or splashing and do
not place objects filled with liquids, such as vases,
cups, etc. on or over the apparatus (e.g., on shelves
above the unit).
y
Grounding
(Except for devices which are not grounded.)
Ensure that you connect the earth ground wire
to prevent possible electric shock (i.e. an TV
with a three-prong grounded AC plug must
be connected to a three-prong grounded AC
outlet). If grounding methods are not possible,
have a qualified electrician install a separate
circuit breaker. Do not try to ground the unit by
connecting it to telephone wires, lightning rods,
or gas pipes.

As long as this unit is connected to the AC wall
outlet, it is not disconnected from the AC power
source even if the unit is turned off.
y
Do not attempt to modify this product in any way
without written authorization from LG Electronics.
Unauthorized modification could void the user’s
authority to operate this product.
y
Outdoor Antenna Grounding
(Can differ by country):
If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the
precautions below. An outdoor antenna system
should not be located in the vicinity of overhead
power lines or other electric light or power
circuits, or where it can come in contact with
such power lines or circuits as death or serious
injury can occur. Be sure the antenna system is
grounded to provide some protection against
voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section
810 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) in the
U.S.A. provides information with respect to proper
grounding of the mast and supporting structure,
grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna
discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,
location of antenna discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes and requirements for the
grounding electrode.

Cleaning
When cleaning, unplug the power cord and wipe
gently with a soft cloth to prevent scratching. Do
not spray water or other liquids directly on the
