14 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Displaying a still image (e.g., broadcasting channel logo, on-screen
menu, scene from a video game) for a prolonged time may cause
damage to the screen, resulting in retention of the image, which is
known as image sticking. The warranty does not cover the product
for image sticking.
Avoid displaying a fixed image on your television’s screen for a
prolonged period (2 or more hours for LCD, 1 or more hours for
Plasma).
Also, if you watch the TV at a ratio of 4:3 for a long time, image
sticking may occur on the borders of the panel.
This phenomenon also occurs in third-party products and is not
subject to exchange or refund.
Generated Sound
“Cracking” noise: A cracking noise that occurs when watching or
turning off the TV is generated by plastic thermal contraction due
to tempera-ture and humidity. This noise is common for products
where thermal deformation is required. Electrical circuit humming/
panel buzzing: A low level noise is generated from a high-speed
switching circuit, which supplies a large amount of current to
operate a product. It varies depending on the product.
This generated sound does not affect the performance and
reliability of the product.
Do not use high voltage electrical goods near the TV (e.g. electric
mosquito-swatter).
This may result in product malfunction.
