 Display panel, Cabinet, Pedestal
 Regular care:
 Gently wipe the surface of the display panel, 
cabinet, or pedestal by using a soft cloth to clean the 
dirt or fingerprints.
 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, otherwise this may cause scratches on the surface.
● 
 Take care not to subject the TV’s surfaces to water or detergent. Liquid inside the TV could lead to product failure.
● 
 Take care not to 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.
 Mains plug
 Wipe the mains plug with a dry cloth at regular intervals. Moisture and dust may lead to fire or electrical shock.
