Safety Precautions
WARNING
Setup
Do not place the LCD Display on sloped or unstable surfaces.
• The LCD Display may fall off or tip over.
Do not place any objects on top of the LCD Display.
• If water spills onto the LCD Display or foreign objects get inside it, a short-circuit may occur which could result in fi re
or electric shock. If any foreign objects get inside the LCD Display, please consult an Authorized Service Center.
Do not cover the ventilation holes.
• Doing so may cause the LCD Display to overheat, which can cause fi re or damage to the LCD Display.
If using the pedestal (optional accessory), leave a space of 3 15 / 16 ” (10 cm) or more at the top, left and right, 1 31 / 32 ”
(5 cm) or more at the bottom, and 2 3 / 4 ” (7 cm) or more at the rear. If using some other setting-up method, leave a
space of 3 15 / 16 ” (10 cm) or more at the top, bottom, left and right, and 2 3 / 8 ” (6 cm) or more at the rear.
AC Power Supply Cord
The LCD Display is designed to operate on 120 V AC, 50/60 Hz.
Securely insert the power cord plug as far as it will go.
• If the plug is not fully inserted, heat may be generated which could cause fi re. If the plug is damaged or the wall
socket plate is loose, they should not be used.
Do not handle the power cord plug with wet hands.
• Doing so may cause electric shocks.
Do not do anything that might damage the power cable. When disconnecting the power cable, hold the plug,
not the cable.
• Do not make any modifi cations, place heavy objects on, place near hot objects, heat, bend, twist or forcefully pull the
power cable. Doing so may cause damage to the power cable which can cause fi re or electric shock. If damage to
the cable is suspected, have it repaired at an Authorized Service Center.
If the LCD Display will not be used for a long period of time, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
If problems occur during use
If a problem occurs (such as no picture or no sound), or if smoke or an abnormal odor is detected from the LCD
Display, unplug the power cord immediately.
• Continuous use of the Display under these conditions might cause fi re or permanent damage to the unit. Have
the Display evaluated at an Authorized Service Center. Services to the Display by any unauthorized personnel are
strongly discouraged due to its high voltage dangerous nature.
If water or foreign objects get inside the LCD Display, if the LCD Display is dropped, or if the cabinet becomes
damaged, disconnect the power cord plug immediately.
• A short may occur, which could cause fi re. Contact an Authorized Service Center for any repairs that need to be made.
The front of the display panel has been specially treated. Wipe the panel surface gently using only a cleaning
cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.
• If the surface is particularly dirty, wipe with a soft, lint-free cloth which has been soaked in pure water or water to
which a small amount of neutral detergent has been added, and then wipe it evenly with a dry cloth of the same type
until the surface is dry.
• Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with fingernails or other hard objects, otherwise the surface may
become damaged. Furthermore, avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner,
otherwise the quality of the surface may be adversely affected.
If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
• If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in water to which a small amount of neutral detergent has been
added and then wring the cloth dry. Use this cloth to wipe the cabinet, and then wipe it dry with a dry cloth.
• Do not allow any detergent to come into direct contact with the surface of the LCD Display. If water droplets get
inside the unit, operating problems may result.
• Avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner, otherwise the quality of the
cabinet surface may be adversely affected or the coating may peel off. Furthermore, do not leave it for long periods
in contact with articles made from rubber or PVC.
