IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
y
Dot Defect
The Plasma or LCD panel is a high technology product
with resolution of two million to six million pixels. In a
very few cases, you could see fine dots on the screen
while you’re viewing the TV. Those dots are deactivated
pixels and do not affect the performance and reliability
of the TV.
y
Generated Sound
Cracking noise
A cracking noise that occurs when
watching or turning off the TV is generated by plastic
thermal contraction due to temperature and humidity.
This noise is common for products where thermal
deformation is required.
Electrical circuit humming/panel buzzing
A low level
noise is generated from a high-speed switching circuit,
which supplies a large amount of current to operate a
product. It varies depending upon the product.
This generated sound does not affect the performance
and reliability of the product.
y
Take care not to touch the ventilation openings. When
watching the TV for a long period, the ventilation
openings may become hot. This does not affect the
performance of the product or cause defects in the
product.
y
Do not install this product on a wall if it could be
exposed to oil or oil mist. This may damage the product
and cause it to fall.
y
If the TV feels cold to the touch, there may be a small
flicker when it is turned on. This is normal, there is
nothing wrong with TV. Some minute dot defects may
be visible on the screen, appearing as tiny red, green, or
blue spots. However, they have no adverse effect on
the TV’s performance. Avoid touching the LCD screen
or holding your finger(s) against it for long periods of
time. Doing so may produce some temporary distortion
effects on the screen.
Preventing Image burn or Burn-in on
your TV screen
y
If a fixed image displays on the TV screen for
a long period of time, it will be imprinted and
become a permanent disfigurement on the
screen. This is image burn or burn-in and not
covered by the warranty.
y
If the aspect ratio of the TV is set to 4:3 for a
long period of time, image burn may occur on the
letterboxed area of the screen.
y
Avoid displaying a fixed image on the TV screen
for a long period of time (2 or more hours for LCD,
1 or more hours for the Plasma TV) to prevent
image burn.
