CHILD SAFETY  
It makes a difference how and where you use  
your flat panel display  
As you enjoy your new product, keep these  
safety tips in mind  
The issue  
The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend, and larger TVs are popular  
purchases. However, TVs are not always supported on the proper stands or installed  
according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. We and the consumer electronics  
industry are committed to making home entertainment enjoyable and safe.  
TVs that are inappropriately placed on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers,  
chests, or carts may fall over and cause injury.  
Tune into safety  
One size of TV stand does not fit all. Use only a TV stand  
rated for the weight of your TV.  
Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for  
proper use of this product.  
Don’t let children to climb on or play with entertainment  
system furniture and TVs.  
Don’t place TVs on furniture that can easily be used as  
steps, such as a chest of drawers.  
Remember that children can become excited while watching  
a program, especially on a “larger-than-life” TV. Make sure  
that you place or install the TV where it cannot be pushed,  
pulled over, or knocked down.  
Make sure that you route all cords and cables so that they  
cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children.  
Wall mounting  
If you decide to wall mount your TV, always:  
One size of wall mount does not fit all. Use only a wall mount rated for the weight of your  
TV and that has been recommended by this TV manufacturer, listed in this manual, or  
otherwise listed by an independent laboratory (such as UL, CSA, or ETL) as suitable for  
your TV.  
Follow all instructions supplied by the TV and wall mount manufacturers.  
If you have any doubts about your ability to safely wall mount your TV, get help from a  
professional installer.  
Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the TV is  
appropriate. Some wall mounts are not designed to be mounted  
to walls backed with steel studs or cinder blocks. If you are  
unsure, ask a professional installer.  
TVs can be heavy. At least two people are required for safe wall mount installation.

Condensation  
Moisture will form on the TV if the TV is brought from cool surroundings  
into a warm room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly.  
When this happens, the TV's performance may be impaired. To prevent  
this, let the TV stand in its new surroundings for about an hour before  
switching it on, or make sure that the room temperature rises gradually.  
Condensation may also form during the summer if the TV is exposed to  
the breeze from an air conditioner. In such cases, change the location of  
the TV.  
Mobile telephone warning  
To avoid interference with your TV picture and sound, operating  
problems, or even damage, keep your cordless and cellular telephones  
away from the TV.  
End of life directives  
Your TV contains tin-lead solder and a fluorescent lamp containing a  
small amount of mercury. Disposal of these materials may be regulated  
for environmental reasons. Your TV also contains material that can be  
recycled and reused. For disposal or recycling information, contact your  
find a recycler in your area.  
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.
