IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO PREVENT IMAGE BURN


/ BURN-IN ON YOUR TV SCREEN
When a fixed image (e.g. logos, screen menus, video game, and computer display) is displayed on the TV
for an extended period, it can become permanently imprinted on the screen. This phenomenon is known
as image burn or burn-in. Image burn is not covered under the manufacturers warranty.
In order to prevent image burn, avoid displaying a fixed image on your TV screen for a prolonged period
(2 or more hours for LCD, 1 or more hours for Plasma).
Image burn can also occur on the letterboxed
areas of your TV if you use the 4:3 aspect
ratio setting for an extended period.

SECURING THE TV TO THE WALL TO PREVENT FALLING


WHEN THE TV IS USED ON A STAND
You should purchase necessary components to prevent the TV from tipping over (when not using a wall mount).
PREPARATION

Image shown may differ from your TV.


We recommend that you set up the TV close to a wall so it cannot fall over if pushed backwards.
Additionally, we recommend that the TV be attached to a wall so it cannot be pulled in a forward direction,
potentially causing injury or damaging the product.
Caution: Please make sure that children dont climb on or hang from the TV.

Insert the eye-bolts (or TV brackets and bolts) to tighten the product to the wall as shown in the picture.
* If your product has the bolts in the eye-bolts position before inserting the eye-bolts, loosen the bolts.
* Insert the eye-bolts or TV brackets/bolts and tighten them securely in the upper holes.
Secure the wall brackets with the bolts (sold separately) to the wall. Match the height of the bracket that is
mounted on the wall to the holes in the product.
Ensure the eye-bolts or brackets are tightened securely.

Use a sturdy rope (sold separately) to tie the product. It is safer to tie
the rope so it becomes horizontal between the wall and the product.

! NOTE
G Use a platform or cabinet strong enough and large enough to support
the size and weight of the TV.
G To use the TV safely, make sure that the height of the bracket on the
wall and the one on the TV are the same.

18
To prevent damage do not connect to the power outlet until all connections are made between the devices.

Parental Control can be used to block specific channels, ratings and other viewing sources.

The Parental Control Function (V-Chip) is used to block program viewing based on the ratings sent by the broad-
casting station. The default setting is to allow all programs to be viewed. Viewing can be blocked by choosing the
type of the program and the categories. It is also possible to block all program viewing for a time period. To use
this function, the following must be done :
1. Set ratings and categories to be blocked.
2. Specify a password
3. Enable the lock

V-Chip rating and categories


Rating guidelines are provided by broadcasting stations. Most television programs and television movies can be
blocked by TV Rating and/or Individual Categories. Movies that have been shown at the theaters or direct-to-
video movies use the Movie Rating System (MPAA) only.

Ratings for Television programs including made-for-TV movies :


TV-G (General audience) TV-MA (Mature audience only)
TV-PG (Parental guidance suggested) TV-Y (All children)
TV-14 (Parents strongly cautioned) TV-Y7 (Children 7 years older)
