• When using headphones, adjust the volume to appropriate levels, or hearing damage may result.

LCD SCREEN

• Although the LCD screen is made with high precision technology and has effective pixels of 99.99% or more, black dots or bright points or light (red, blue, or green) may appear constantly on the LCD screen. This is a structural property of the LCD panel and is not a malfunction.
• The LCD screen is made with high-precision technology. To achieve a high level of performance and picture quality, this TV's backlight setting is set to maximize the brightness of the TV. However, uneven brightness may be observed when the LCD TV is viewed in a dark environment without an input source or a blank screen. This is a normal condition, not a malfunction of the TV. To improve this condition, change the Picture mode, Backlight setting, enable the Light Sensor, or turn on the Power management.
• Avoid exposing the LCD screen surface to direct sunlight. It is likely to damage the LCD panel.
• Do not push or scratch the LCD screen, or place objects on top of the TV. The image may be uneven or the LCD panel may be damaged.
• If the TV is used in a cold place, a smear may occur in the picture or the picture may become dark. It is not caused by a failure. This condition will improve as the temperature rises.
• When still pictures are displayed continuously, ghosting may occur. It should disappear after a short period of time.
• The screen and cabinet get warm when the TV is in use. This is a normal condition.
• Spraying insect repellent with volatile material on the screen will cause damage.
• Do not make prolonged contact with rubber or plastic material.

Broken pieces

Do not throw anything at the TV.
Doing so may break the screen glass and cause serious injury.

If the surface of the TV cracks, unplug the AC power cord before touching the TV. Otherwise electric shock may result.

Handling of broken glass and liquid crystal leakage

If the LCD panel gets damaged, crystalline liquid leakage may occur, or scattered broken glass may result. Do not touch broken glass or crystalline liquid which is toxic, with bare hands as cuts, poisoning or skin irritation may occur. Also do not glass fragments or leaked crystalline liquid get into your eyes or mouth. Should either contacted your eyes or mouth, rinse the contacted area thoroughly with water and consult your doctor.

SERVICING
