The TV sometimes makes a cracking 
sound. • This is not a malfunction. This happens when the cabinet slightly expands and contracts according to 
changes in temperature. This does not affect the TV’s performance. •
Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environmentsWhen the TV is used in a low temperature space (e.g., room, office), the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed. This is not 
a malfunction, and the TV will recover when the temperature returns to normal.
Do not leave the TV in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the TV in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a heater, as this 
may cause the cabinet to deform and the LCD panel to malfunction.
Storage temperature: e 5 °C to e 35 °C. •
