The TV is hot.
Watching TV for an extended period of time causes the panel to generate heat. The heat from
the panel is dissipated through internal vents running along the top of the TV. The bottom,
however, may feel hot to the touch after extended use. Children watching TV need constant
adult supervision to prevent them from touching the TV. This heat, however, is not a defect and
does not affect the TV's functionality.
