malfunction.
36)
•
Never use chemicals (such as air
fresheners, cleaning agents, etc.) on or
near the TV pedestal. Studies indicate that
plastics may weaken and crack over time

injury and/or permanent damage to TV
and TV pedestal.
• Always unplug the TV before cleaning.
Gently wipe the display panel surface (the
TV screen) using a dry, soft cloth (cotton,
flannel, etc.). A hard cloth may damage
the surface of the panel.
Avoid contact with alcohol, thinner,
benzene, acidic or alkaline solvent
cleaners, abrasive cleaners, or chemical
cloths, which may damage the surface.
Never spray volatile compounds such as
insecticide on the cabinet. Such products
may damage or discolor the cabinet.

back cover. These actions will damage
internal parts.
38)
Never spill liquids or push objects of any
kind into the TV cabinet slots.
39) During a lightning storm, do not touch
the connecting cables or product.
40) For added protection of your TV from
lightning and power surges, always unplug
the power cord and disconnect the antenna
from the TV if you leave the TV unattended
or unused for long periods of time.
