ENGLISH
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 or 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 press strongly upon the panel with a hand or
a sharp object such as a nail, pencil, or pen, or make a
scratch on it.
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., a 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.
