Lightning

For added protection for your TV’s receiver
during a lightning storm, or when it is left
unattended and unused for long periods of time,
unplug it from the power outlet and disconnect
the antenna or cable system. This helps prevent
damage to your TV from lightning and power line
surges.

Servicing

Do not attempt to service your TV yourself
because opening or removing covers may
expose you to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.

Replacement parts

When replacement parts are required, make
sure that the service technician uses
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer
that have the same characteristics as the
original part. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in fire, electric shock, personal injury, or
other hazards.

Overloading

Do not overload power outlets and extension
cords because this can result in a risk of fire or
electric shock.

Object and liquid entry

Never push objects of any kind into your TV
through openings because objects may touch
dangerous voltage points or short out parts that
could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill
liquid of any kind on your TV.

Damage requiring service

Unplug this TV from the power outlet and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel under
the following conditions:

When the power supply cord or plug is
damaged or frayed.

If liquid has been spilled or objects have
fallen into your TV.

If your TV has been exposed to rain or water.

If your TV does not operate normally by
following the operating instructions. Adjust
only those controls that are covered by the
operating instructions because incorrect
adjustment of other controls may result in
damage and will often require extensive work
by a qualified technician to restore your TV to
its normal operation.

If your TV has been dropped or damaged in
any way.

When your TV exhibits a distinct change in
performance.

Safety check

After completing any service or repair to this TV,
ask the service technician to perform routine
safety checks to determine that your TV is in
correct operating condition.

Power source

Operate your TV only from the type of power
source indicated on the marking label. If you are
not sure of the type of power supplied to your
home, consult your TV dealer or local power
company.

Screen protection

Your TV’s screen is made of glass. Do not drop
your TV or hit the glass screen. If the screen
breaks, be careful of broken glass.

Non-active pixels

The LCD panel contains almost 3 million thin film
transistors, which provide exceptionally sharp
video quality. Occasionally, a few nonactive
pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed blue,
green, or red point. These non-active pixels do
not adversely affect the performance of your TV,
and are not considered defects.

Outdoor antenna grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is
connected to your TV, make sure that the
antenna or cable system is grounded to provide
some protection against voltage surges and
built-up static charges. Article 810 of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70,
provides information with respect to correct
grounding of the mast and supporting structure,
grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna
discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,
location of the antenna-discharge unit,
connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.

Note to CATV system installer

This reminder is provided to call the CATV
system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of
the NEC that provides guidelines for correct
grounding and in particular, specifies that the
cable ground must be connected to the
grounding system of the building as close to the
point of cable entry as practical.
