Laboratories. 8Dolby 9 8Pro Logic 9 and the double-D symbol are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories. _________________________ HD programming You must get HD programming to get an HD picture ! Call your Cable or Satellite service to order HDTV Programming.<br><br> _________________________ 1Safety warnings _________________________ 1.1General ç Do not insert the power plug in a wall socket or hang the TV to the wall before all connections are made. -Place or hang the TV wherever you want,but make sure that air can circulate freely through the ventilation slots.Leave at least 4 d to 6 d free all around the TV. -Do not place the TV on a carpet.<br><br> - Do not install the TV in a confined space such as a book case or a similar unit. - To prevent any unsafe situations,no naked flame sources,such as lighted candles,should be placed in the vicinity. - Avoid heat,direct sunlight and exposure to rain or water.<br><br> - The equipment shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing. -To prevent damaging the power (AC) cord which could cause a fire or electric shock,do not place the TV on the cord. _________________________ 1.2Care of the screen Do not remove the protective sheet until you have completed the stand/wall mounting and connection.<br><br> Please,handle with care.Use only a soft cloth to clean the glossy black front of the TV. Do not touch,push or rub or strike the screen with anything hard as this may scratch,mar or damage the screen permanently. And please do not rub with dust clothes with chemical treatment.<br><br> Do not touch the surface with bare hands or greasy cloth (some cosmetics are detrimental to the screen).Unplug the TV before cleaning the screen. When the surface becomes dusty,please wipe gently with absorbent cotton or other soft materials like chamois soaks.Do not use acetone, toluene and alcohol because they cause chemical damage.Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.Wipe off saliva or water drops as soon as possible.Their long time contact with the screen causes deformations and color fading. _________________________ 1.3Warning concerning stationary images on the TV screen A characteristic of LCD Panels is that displaying the same image for a long time can cause a permanent after-image to remain on the screen.<br><br> Normal use of the TV should involve the showing of pictures that contain constantly moving and changing images that fill the screen. Examples of stationary images (this is not an all-inclusive list,you may encounter others in your viewing): -TV menus; -Black bars:when black bars appear at the left and right side of the screen,it is recommended to change to a picture format so that the picture fills the entire screen; -TV channel logo:present a problem if they are bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause uneven aging of the screen; -Stock market stickers:presented at the bottom of the TV screen; -Shopping channel logos and pricing displays:bright and shown constantly or repeatedly in the same location on the TV screen.<br><br> Examples of still pictures also include logos,computer images,time display,teletext and images displayed in 4:3 mode,static images or characters,etc. ç Reduce contrast and brightness when viewing.When the same image is displayed for 10 minutes,brightness will be reduced automatically. Once burn-in occurs it will never disappear completely.<br><br> ) Carefully pay attention to these remarks.The warranty does not apply to damage caused by not taking into account the above mentioned warnings on stationary images. _________________________ 1.4Mounting Installing the TV requires special skills that should only be performed by qualified personnel.You should not attempt to do the work yourself.
