SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

y

You may find different brightness and colour of the panel depending on your viewing 

position(left/right/top/down).  

This phenomenon occurs due to the characteristic of the panel. It is not related with the 

product performance, and it is not malfunction.

y

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).

panel.  

This phenomenon also occurs in third-party products and is not subject to exchange or refund.

y

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.

precautions to Take when using 

the Magic Remote

y

Use the Magic Remote within the maximum 

communication distance (10 m). Using the Magic 

Remote beyond this distance, or with an object 

obstructing it, may cause a communication failure.

y

A communication failure may occur due to nearby 

devices. Electrical devices such as a microwave 

oven or wireless LAN product may cause 

interference, as these use the same bandwidth (2.4 

GHz) as the Magic Remote.

y

The Magic Remote may be damaged or may 

malfunction if it is dropped or receives a heavy 

impact.

y

Take care not to bump into nearby furniture or other 

people when using the Magic Remote.

y

Manufacturer and installer cannot provide service 

related to human safety as the applicable wireless 

device has possibility of electric wave interference.

y

It is recommended that an Access Point (AP) be 

located more than 1 m away from the TV. If the 

AP is installed closer than 1 m, the Magic Remote 

may not perform as expected due to frequency 

interference.
