To avoid this, mix your viewing pattern. Examples include, but are not limited to the following: · Stock-market report bars · Shopping channel logos and pricing displays · Video game patterns or scoreboards · Bright station logos · Internet web sites or other computer-style images. · DVD discs, video tapes, laser discs · Broadcast, cable, satellite channels or digital television tuners/converters. For example... TV on TV off XYZ XYZ Caring for the Cabinet Normally, light dusting with a soft, non-scratching duster will keep your TV clean. If you wish to wipe down the television, first unplug it. Then wipe gently with a soft cloth, slightly moistened with water. You can add a few drops of mild liquid detergent to the water to help remove spots of oily dirt. · · · · DO NOT allow liquid to enter the TV through the ventilation slots. DO NOT use strong or abrasive cleaners on the TV. DO NOT spray liquids or cleaners directly on the TV's surface. DO NOT rub or scrub the TV harshly. Wipe the set gently with a soft cloth. Caring for the Screen The screen is treated with an electrostatic-proof coating. When it gets dirty, wipe it gently with a soft cloth. If the screen is very dirty, wipe it down with a cloth dipped in a diluted kitchen cleaner and thoroughly wrung-out. Then wipe immediately after with a clean, dry cloth. Do not apply alcohol, organic solvents (like acetone), acidic or alkaline cleansers to the screen. These will remove the coating layer and cause discolorations. Do not push or hit the screen. This could cause scratches on the screen surface and image distortions. 5 Warnings (Continued...) How to move the cabinet Your fingers may become trapped under the TV, causing injuries. Hold the TV at the bottom in the middle, and do not allow the TV to tilt up or down. The TV may fall causing injuries.
