Care and Cleaning

Display panel

First, unplug the Power cord plug from the wall outlet.

■ Display panel

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, after cleaning up the dust, soak a soft, lint-free cloth in diluted mild liquid dish soap (1 part mild liquid dish soap diluted by 100 times the amount of water) and then wring the cloth to remove excess liquid. Use this cloth to wipe the surface of the display panel, 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. Furthermore, avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents, and thinner, otherwise, the quality of the surface may be adversely affected.

Cabinet

First, unplug the Power cord plug from the wall outlet.

■ Cabinet

If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.

● If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in a weak mild liquid dish soap 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 mild liquid dish soap to come into direct contact with the surface of the TV. 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.

● Do not let articles made from rubber or PVC be in contact with the TV for long periods of time.

Pedestal / Power cord

First, unplug the Power cord plug from the wall outlet.

■ Pedestal Cleaning

● Wipe the surfaces with a soft, dry cloth. If the unit is particularly dirty, clean it using a cloth soaked with water to which a small amount of mild liquid dish soap has been added and then wipe with a dry cloth. Do not use products such as solvents, thinner, or household wax for cleaning, as they can damage the surface coating. (If using a chemically-treated cloth, follow the instructions supplied with the cloth.)

● Do not attach sticky tape or labels, as they can make the surface of the pedestal dirty. Do not allow long-term contact with rubber, vinyl products, or the like. (Doing so will cause deterioration.)

■ Power cord

● Wipe the plug with a dry cloth at regular intervals. (Moisture and dust can lead to fire or electrical shock.)

● Press MENU on the TV’s remote control. If the menu is displayed, then the TV is working; recheck above steps.

#3 Why doesn’t the picture look like it is in High Definition?
● Press the INFO button on the remote to confirm the type of signal being received. HD signal should be 720p, 1080i or 1080p.
● Select a High Definition channel from your HD source (Cable, Satellite or fiber optic service). HD channels sometimes broadcast non-HD content.
● Ensure that your HD source (HD box, Blu-ray player, etc.) is connected to the TV with an HDMI or Component cable and set to output an HD video signal.

#4 Why is there a clicking, ticking or buzzing sound coming from the TV unit?
● When TV power is turned on or shut off there are electrical components that make a click sound. This is normal operation.
● Changes in the temperature and humidity of the room may cause thermal expansion and contraction that can produce sounds. This is not a sign of faulty operation or a malfunction.
