6) Never block or cover the slots and
openings in the cabinet.
• Never place the TV so that it is facing
upward or on its side.
• Never place the TV in a closet, bookcase
or other similar area where the ventilation is
poor.
• Never drape a newspaper, tablecloth or
curtain on the TV.
• When installing the TV against a wall,
always keep the TV at least 10 cm away
from the wall.
• Never place the TV on a soft unstable
surface, such as a carpet, or a cushion.
The inside of this TV will overheat if the
ventilation holes are covered, blocked or
sealed, which may result in a fi re.
7) Never place the TV near a heater or in
direct sunlight.
The surface of the cabinet or power cord may
melt and result in a fi re or an electric shock.
8) Never place the TV in an area exposed to
high humidity levels, such as in a bathroom
or close to a humidifi er.
This may cause a fi re or an electric shock.
9) Never place the TV next to a stove where it
will be exposed to oil, smoke, or steam, or
in a location where there is a large quantity
of dust.
This may cause a fi re or an electric shock.
10) Precautions for moving the TV
• When moving the TV, be sure to remove the
plug from the wall outlet and disconnect
the aerial cable and audio/video cables, any
steady ties and mounting screw. A fi re or an
electric shock may result if the power cord
is damaged.
• When carrying the TV, at least two people
are needed. Be sure to carry it upright.
• Never carry the TV with the screen facing up
or down.
11) Precautions for installing on outdoor aerial
An outside aerial system should not be
located in the vicinity of overhead power
lines, or other electric light or power circuits.
If the aerial falls down or drops, it may cause
an injury or an electric shock.
Use
1) Never place hot objects or open fl ame
sources, such as lighted candles or
nightlights, on or close to the TV.
High temperatures can melt plastic and lead to fi res.
2) The apparatus shall not be exposed to
dripping or splashing and that no objects
fi lled with liquids, such as vases, shall be
placed on the apparatus.
When liquids are spilled or small items are
dropped inside the TV, this may cause a fi re
or an electric shock.
If small objects drop inside the TV, turn off the
TV and remove the power plug from the outlet
immediately and contact a service technician.
3) Never insert objects (metal or paper)
or pour water inside the TV through
ventilation holes and other openings.
These items may cause a fi re or an electric
shock. If these objects are inserted inside the
TV, turn off the TV and remove the power plug
from the outlet immediately and contact a
service technician. Be especially careful that
children do not insert objects in the TV.
4) When the TV will not be used for a long
period of time, such as during vacation
or travel, remove the power plug from the
wall outlet for safety.
• The TV is not completely disconnected from
the power supply line, as minute current is
consumed even when the
1
Power switch is
turned off.
• The Mains plug or an appliance coupler is
used as the disconnect device, therefore
the disconnect device shall remain readily
operable.
5) Never pull on the power cord when
removing the plug from the wall outlet.
Always hold the plug fi rmly when removing
it. If the power cord is yanked, the cord may
become damaged and a fi re or an electric
shock may occur.
6) Never cut, break, modify, twist, bunch up
or bent the cord or apply excessive force
or tension to it.
Never place heavy objects on the cord or allow
it to overheat as this may cause damage, a
fi re or an electric shock. Contact a service
technician if the power cord is damaged.
7) If there is thunder or lightning, never touch
the aerial cable or other connected cables.
You may suffer an electric shock.
Service
