3. Head all warnings --- All warnings on the product and in the instructions must be observed closely.
4. Follow all instructions --- All operating instructions must be followed.
5. Attachments --- Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer. Do not use attachments not
recommended by the manufacturer. Use of improper attachments can result in accidents,
6. Power source --- This product is intended to be supplied by a listed power supply indicated on the marking label.
If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your product dealer or local power company. For
added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of
time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the cable system.
7. Power cord protection --- Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
8. Overloading --- Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or convenience receptacles on other
equipment as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

do not spill water or liquid on the product.
10. Servicing --- Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in anyway, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into
the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
11. Damage requiring service --- If any of the following conditions occurs, unplug the power cord from the AC outlet,
and request a qualified service person to perform repairs.

Important Safety Precautions (continued)
2
15. Stand --- Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the
manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. Do not place the product on an unstable
trolley, stand, tripod or table. Placing the product on an unstable base can cause
the product to fall, resulting in serious personal injuries as well as damage to the
product. When mounting the product on a wall, be sure to follow the manufacturer's
instructions. Use only the mounting hardware recommended by the manufacturer.
16. Careful move --- When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus
combination to avoid injury from tip-over. Sudden stops, excessive force and uneven
floor surfaces can cause the product to fall from the trolley.
17. Lightning --- Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for
long periods of time.
For added protection for this television equipment during a lightning storm, or when
it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet
and disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage to the equipment due to
lightning and power-line surges.
18. Do not use this apparatus near water --- for example, near a bathtub, washbowl,
kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like.
Do not use immediately after moving from a low temperature to high temperature
environment, as this causes condensation, which may result in fire, electric shock, or
other hazards.
20. Ventilation --- Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with
the manufacturer instructions. The vents and other openings in the cabinet are
designed for ventilation. Do not cover or block these vents and openings since
insufficient ventilation can cause overheating and/or shorten the life of the product.
Do not place the product on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface, since they
can block ventilation openings. This product is not designed for built-in installation;
do not place the product in an enclosed place such as a bookcase or rack, unless
proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer's instructions are followed.
21. Heat sources --- Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
22. Panel protection --- The LCD panel used in this product is made of glass.
Therefore, it can break when the product is dropped or impacted upon by other
objects. Be careful not to be injured by broken glass pieces in case the LCD panel
breaks.

Using the Remote Control
Use the remote control by pointing it towards the remote sensor window of the set.
Objects between the remote control and sensor window may prevent proper operation.
Note: the illustration is for your reference only, the remote sensor may locate differently
with different model.
Cautions regarding use of remote control
Do not expose the remote control to shock. In addition, do not expose the remote
control to liquids, and do not place in an area with high humidity.
Do not install or place the remote control under direct sunlight. The heat may cause deformation of the unit.
The remote control may not work properly if the remote sensor window of the main unit is under direct sunlight or
strong lighting. In such a case, change the angle of the lighting or LCD TV set, or operate the remote control closer
to the remote sensor window.
If the remote control fails to operate the LCD TV functions, replace the batteries in the remote control.
Open the battery cover. Insert two size-AAA batteries.
Replace the cover and slide in
reverse until the lock snaps.
(Slide the cover while pressing
down.) (Place the batteries with their terminals
corresponding to the (+) and (-)
indications in the battery compartment.)
Precautions on battery use
Improper use of batteries can result in a leakage of chemicals and/or explosion. Be sure to follow the instructions below.
Place batteries with their terminals corresponding to the (+) and (-) indications.
Different types of batteries have different characteristics. Do not mix batteries of different types.
Do not mix old and new batteries. Mixing old and new batteries can shorten the life of new batteries and/or cause old
batteries to leak chemicals.
Remove batteries as soon as they are non-operable. Chemicals that leak from batteries can cause a rash. If chemical
leakage is found, wipe with a cloth.
The batteries supplied with the product may have a shorter life expectancy due to storage conditions.
If the remote control is not used for an extended period of time, remove the batteries from the remote control.
