Important Safety Instructions
Your FHDTV is designed and manufactured to operate within defined design limits, and misuse
may result in electric shock or fire. To prevent your FHDTV from being damaged, the following
rules should be observed for the installation, use, and maintenance of your FHDTV. Read the
following safety instructions before operating your FHDTV. Keep these instructions in a safe place
for future reference.
x To reduce the risk of electric shock or component damage, switch off the power before
connecting other components to your FHDTV.
x Unplug the power cord before cleaning your FHDTV. A damp cloth is sufficient for cleaning your
FHDTV. Do not use a liquid or a spray cleaner for cleaning your FHDTV. Do not use abrasive
cleaners.
x Always use the accessories recommended by the manufacturer to insure compatibility.
x When moving your FHDTV from an area of low temperature to an area of high temperature,
condensation may form in the housing. Wait before turning on your FHDTV to avoid causing fire,
electric shock, or component damage.
x Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by manufacturer or sold with your
FHDTV. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/FHDTV combination to avoid
injury from tip-over. Do not place your FHDTV on an unstable cart, stand, or table. If your FHDTV
falls, it can injure a person and cause serious damage to your FHDTV. Use only a cart or stand
recommended by the manufacturer or sold with your FHDTV.
x A distance of at least 3 feet should be maintained between your FHDTV and any heat source,
such as a radiator, heater, oven, amplifier etc. Do not install your FHDTV close to smoke.
Operating your FHDTV close to smoke or moisture may cause fire or electric shock.
x Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure
reliable operation of your FHDTV and to protect it from overheating, be sure these openings are
not blocked or covered. Do not place your FHDTV in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper
ventilation is provided.
x Never push any object into the slots and openings on your FHDTV cabinet. Do not place any
objects on the top of your FHDTV. Doing so could short circuit parts causing a fire or electric
shock. Never spill liquids on your FHDTV.
x Your FHDTV should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the label. If you
are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your dealer or local power
company.
x Do not apply pressure or throw objects at your FHDTV. This may compromise the integrity of the
display. The manufacturer’s warranty does not cover user abuse or improper installations.
x The power cord must be replaced when using different voltage than the voltage specified. For
more information, contact your dealer.
x Your FHDTV is equipped with a three-pronged grounded plug (a plug with a third grounding
pin). This plug will fit only into a grounded power outlet. This is a safety feature. If
your outlet does not accommodate the three-pronged, have an electrician install
the correct outlet, or use an adapter to ground your FHDTV safely. Do not defeat
the safety purpose of the grounded plug.
x When connected to a power outlet, power is always flowing into your FHDTV. To
totally disconnect power, unplug the power cord.
x The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of un-isolated, dangerous
voltage within the inside of your FHDTV that may be of
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to
persons.
x The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to
the presence of important operating and servicing instructions in the literature
accompanying your FHDTV.
x Do not overload power strips and extension cords. Overloading can result in fire or electric shock.
