Safety information

Read instructions

Read all of the safety and operating instructions

before you use your TV.

Retain instructions

Retain safety and operating instructions for

future reference.

Follow warnings and instructions

Follow all warnings on your TV and in the

operating instructions. Follow all operating and

use instructions.

Water and moisture

Do not use your TV near water. For example, do

not use it near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen

sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a

swimming pool.

Cleaning

Unplug your TV before cleaning. Do not use

liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use only a damp cloth

to clean the exterior of your TV.

Ventilation

Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back

or bottom are provided for ventilation, reliable

operation, and protection from overheating.

These openings must not be blocked or covered.

Do not block the openings by placing your TV on

a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Do not

place your TV near or over a radiator or heat

register. Do not place your TV in a built-in

installation, such as a bookcase or rack, unless

you provide correct ventilation or follow the

manufacturer’s instructions.

Heat

Make sure that your TV is located away from

heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,

stoves, or other products (including amplifiers)

that produce heat.

Grounding or polarization

Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized

or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two

blades with one wider than the other. A

grounding type plug has two blades and a

grounding prong. The wide blade or grounding

prong are provided for your safety. If the plug

does not fit, contact an electrician to replace the

obsolete outlet.

Power cord protection

Route power cords so that they are not likely to

be walked on or pinched by items placed on or

against them. Pay particular attention to cords at

plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point

where they exit from your TV.

Attachments

Do not use attachments not recommended by

Insignia because they may cause hazards.

Stand

Do not place your TV on an unstable cart, stand,

tripod, bracket, or table. Your TV may fall,

causing serious personal injury and serious

damage to your TV. Use only with a cart, stand,

tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the

manufacturer, or sold with your TV. If you mount

your TV to the wall, follow the manufacturer’s

instructions and use a mounting accessory

recommended by the manufacturer. Your TV and

cart combination should be moved with care.

Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven

surfaces may cause your TV and cart

combination to overturn.

Lightning

For added protection for your TV’s receiver

during a lightning storm, or when it is left

unattended and unused for long periods of time,

unplug it from the power outlet and disconnect

the antenna or cable system. This helps prevent

damage to your TV from lightning and power line

surges.

Warning

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover or

back. No user serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to

qualified service personnel.

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose your

TV to rain or moisture.

Caution

To prevent electric shock, match the wide blade on the power

cord plug to the wide slot on an electric outlet. If the plug does

not fit, consult a licensed electrician to replace the obsolete

outlet. Do not modify the power cord plug, or you will defeat

this safety feature.

This symbol indicates that dangerous voltage

constituting a risk of electric shock is present

within your TV. This label is located on the back

of your TV.

This symbol indicates that there are important

operating and maintenance instructions in the

literature accompanying your TV.

Warning

Your TV contains tin-lead solder and a fluorescent lamp

containing a small amount of mercury. Disposal of these

materials may be regulated for environmental reasons. For

disposal or recycling information, contact your local authorities

or the Electronic Industries Alliance at www.eia.org.

Servicing

Do not attempt to service your TV yourself

because opening or removing covers may

expose you to dangerous voltage or other

hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service

personnel.

Replacement parts

When replacement parts are required, make

sure that the service technician uses

replacement parts specified by the manufacturer

that have the same characteristics as the

original part. Unauthorized substitutions may

result in fire, electric shock, personal injury, or

other hazards.

Overloading

Do not overload power outlets and extension

cords because this can result in a risk of fire or

electric shock.

Object and liquid entry

Never push objects of any kind into your TV

through openings because objects may touch

dangerous voltage points or short out parts that

could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill

liquid of any kind on your TV.

Damage requiring service

Unplug this TV from the power outlet and refer

servicing to qualified service personnel under

the following conditions:

• When the power supply cord or plug is

damaged or frayed.

• If liquid has been spilled or objects have

fallen into your TV.

• If your TV has been exposed to rain or water.

• If your TV does not operate normally by

following the operating instructions. Adjust

only those controls that are covered by the

operating instructions because incorrect

adjustment of other controls may result in

damage and will often require extensive work

by a qualified technician to restore your TV to

its normal operation.

• If your TV has been dropped or damaged in

any way.

• When your TV exhibits a distinct change in

performance.

Replacement parts

When replacement parts are required, make

sure that the service technician uses

replacement parts specified by the manufacturer

that have the same characteristics as the

original part. Unauthorized substitutions may

result in fire, electric shock, personal injury, or

other hazards.

Safety check

After completing any service or repair to this TV,

ask the service technician to perform routine

safety checks to determine that your TV combo

is in correct operating condition.

Power source

Operated your TV only from the type of power

source indicated on the marking label. If you are

not sure of the type power supplied to your

home, consult your TV dealer or local power

company.

Lightning

For added protection for your TV’s receiver

during a lightning storm, or when it is left

unattended and unused for long periods of time,

unplug it from the power outlet and disconnect

the antenna or cable system. This helps prevent

damage to your TV from lightning and power line

surges.

Screen protection

Your TV’s screen is made of glass. Do not drop

your TV or hit the glass screen. If the screen

breaks, be careful of broken glass.

Pixel defect

Your TV’s screen is designed to display finely

detailed pictures. Occasionally, a few non-active

pixels may appear on the screen as fixed points

of blue, green, or red. This is not a defect and

does not affect your TV’s performance.

Outdoor antenna grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is

connected to your TV, make sure that the

antenna or cable system is grounded to provide

some protection against voltage surges and

built-up static charges. Article 810 of the

National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70,

provides information with respect to correct

grounding of the mast and supporting structure,

grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna

discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,

location of the antenna-discharge unit,

connection to grounding electrodes, and

requirements for the grounding electrode.

Note to CATV system installer

This reminder is provided to call the CATV

system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of

the NEC that provides guidelines for correct

grounding and in particular, specifies that the

cable ground must be connected to the

grounding system of the building as close to the

point of cable entry as practical.
