Maintenance
First, remove the mains plug from the socket outlet.
Regular care
● Gently wipe the surface of the display panel, cabinet and pedestal by using a soft cloth.
● Wipe the mains plug with a dry cloth at regular intervals. Moisture and dust may lead to fire or electrical shock.
For stubborn dirt
First clean the dust on the surface. Dampen a soft cloth with clean water or diluted neutral detergent (1 part detergent to 100 parts water). Wring the cloth and wipe the surface. Finally, wipe away all the moisture.
Caution
● Do not use a hard cloth or rub the surface too hard as this could scratch the surface.
● Do not subject the TV’s surfaces to water or detergent.
Liquid inside the TV could lead to product failure.
● Do not subject the surfaces to insect repellent, solvent, thinner or other volatile substances. This may degrade surface quality or cause peeling of the paint.
● The surface of the display panel is specially treated and may be easily damaged. Take care not to tap or scratch the surface with your fingernail or other hard objects.
● Do not allow the cabinet and pedestal to make contact with a rubber or PVC substance for a long time. This may degrade surface quality.
