Maintenance
Just like with any other household appliance, the performance and life-
expectancy of your TV depends on how well you maintain it. Follow the
procedures described here to clean the TV case and the LCD screen.
Cautions:
• Make sure that the TV is turned off and the power cord is
disconnected from the power outlet before cleaning the TV.
• Never spray or pour any liquid directly onto the screen or the case.
Cleaning
• Clean your TV with a soft, dry cloth. If surfaces are extremely
dirty, use a soft cloth dampened with a small amount of
non-ammonia, non-alcohol-based, mild, non-abrasive
detergent.
• Clean the screen with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth. If additional
cleaning is necessary, apply a small amount of non-ammonia,
non-alcohol-based glass cleaner onto a clean, soft, lint-free
cloth, then wipe the screen.
