Important safety instruction
Maintenance
• To clean your TV, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. If the 
surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth dipped 
in a soap and water solution or a weak detergent 
solution.
• Never use alcohol, paint thinner or benzene to clean 
this unit.
• Before using a chemically treated cloth, read the 
instructions that came with the cloth carefully.
CAUTION:  If water or other liquid enters the 
television through the display panel surface,  
a malfunction may occur.
Packaging
• The safest way to transport your item is in the 
original box/packaging - please save your packaging 
for this.
• You will need the original box/packaging in the 
event of warranty/service repair or support. We 
are unable to carry out warranty/service if you are

Important information regarding use of video 
games, computers, captions or other  xed image 
displays
The extended use of  xed image program material can cause 
a permanent “shadow image” on the LCD/LED panel, also 
known as “screen burn”.
This “shadow image” can appear in the background during 
normal viewing. This type of irreversible LCD/LED panel 
deterioration can be limited by observing the following steps:
1. Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum 
suitable viewing level.
2. Do not display the  xed image for extended periods 
of time.
3. Turn the power o  when not in use.
Examples of images that are more likely to cause “screen burn” 
are as follows (this is not an exhaustive list):
• TV channel logos: e.g. shopping channel logos and 
pricing displays - especially if they are bright and 
stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less 
likely to cause ageing of the screen.
• Time displays.
• Teletext: Do not view a stationary page for a long 
period of time
• TV/DVD menus: e.g. listings of DVD disc content.
• Pause mode: Do not leave the TV in 
pause mode 
for long periods of time, e.g. when 
watching DVDs 
or videos.
Important: Once ‘shadow image/
screen burn’ 
occurs, it will never disappear and 
is not 
repairable under warranty.
