EMERSONUSER’S MANUAL MANUEL DE L’UTILISATEUR MANUAL DEL USUARIO UW40T SERIES

DIGITAL TELEVISION TRANSITION NOTICE

This device contains a digital television tuner, so it should receive digital over the air 

TV programming, with a suitable antenna, after the end of full-power analog TV 

broadcasting in the United States on June 12, 2009. The nationwide switch to digital 

television broadcasting will be complete on June 12, 2009, but your local television 

stations may switch sooner. After the switch, analog-only television sets that receive 

TV programming through an antenna will need a converter box to continue to receive 

over-the-air TV. Watch your local stations to find out when they will turn off their 

analog signal and switch to digital-only broadcasting.

For more information, call the FCC at 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-225-5322) or see 

www.DTV.gov. For information on the TV Converter program, and on government 

coupons that may be used toward the purchase of one, see www.dtv2009.gov, or call 

the NTIA at 1-888-DTV-2009.

NOTICES

Important Notices Concerning Power Cord Selection

The specific power cord for this LED TV is enclosed and has been selected 

according to the country of destination. Use the enclosed power cord to prevent 

electric shock. Observe the following guidelines if it is necessary to replace the 

original cord set, or if there is no cord set enclosed. The female receptacle of the 

cord set must meet IEC-60320 requirements and should look like Figure A1 below:

For the United States and Canada

In the United States and Canada the male plug is a NEMA5-15 style (Figure A2), 

UL-listed, and CSA-labeled. For LED TVs that are to be placed on a desk or table, 

type SVT or SJT cord sets may be used. For LED TVs that are to be placed directly 

on the floor, only SJT type cord sets may be used. The cord set must be selected 

according to the current rating for the LED TV. Consult the table below for the 

selection criteria of power cords used in the United States and Canada

FCC COMPLIANCE STATEMENT

This equipment has been tested and complies with the limits for a Class B digital 

device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide 

reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This 

equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy, and may cause 

harmful interference to radio communications if not installed and used in accordance 

with the instructions. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur 

in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio 

or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and 

on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the 

following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the distance between the LED TV and the receiver.

• Connect the LED TV to an outlet on a circuit separate from to which the 

receiver is connected.

• If the interference persists even after performing the above measures, 

consult the Westinghouse Service Center or an experienced radio/TV 

technician for assistance.

FCC Warning

To assure continued FCC compliance, use a grounded power supply cord and the 

provided shielded video interface cable with bonded ferrite cores. If a BNC cable is 

used, use only a shielded BNC (5) cable. Also, any unauthorized changes or 

modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer will void the user's 

authority to operate this device.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Make sure to note and follow all warnings and instructions marked on the LED TV. 

Observe the following safety instructions.

• Read these instructions.

• Keep these instructions.

• Heed all warnings.

• Follow all instructions.

• Do not use this apparatus near water.

• Clean only with dry cloth.

• Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the 

manufacturer’s instructions.

• Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, 

stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

• Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A 

polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding 

type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the 

third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into 

your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, 

convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

• Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

• Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the 

manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution 

when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

• Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long 

periods of time.

• Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when 

the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or 

plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the 

apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not 

operate normally, or has been dropped.

Circuit Overload

Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or power strips. This can result in a fire 

or electronic shock.

Power Cord Protection

Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or 

pinched by items placed upon or against them. Periodically inspect the cords for 

damage. Install the LED TV near a wall socket outlet where the power cord can be 

readily accessed.

Ventilation

The slots and openings on the cabinet are provided for necessary ventilation. To 

ensure reliable operation of the LED TV and to protect it from overheating, these 

slots and openings must never be blocked or covered

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

• Do not orient the LED TV towards direct sunlight to reduce glare.

• If the LED TV will not be used for a long period of time, unplug the unit and 

remove the batteries from the remote control.

• Avoid touching the display screen by hand or any object.

• Never remove the rear cover. The LED TV interior contains high-voltage 

parts. You may be seriously injured if you touch them.

• Always handle the LED TV with caution when moving it.

• Do not install the LED TV in airtight compartments, or in areas where it can 

be exposed to water or high temperature.

• Ensure that the area around the LED TV is clean and free of moisture.

• Do not place anything on the LED TV that can hinder heat dissipation.

• Do not place naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, on or near the 

LED TV.

• Do not place anything on the LED TV that can cause liquid to splash on it 

(e.g. flower vase).

• Do not place heavy objects on the LED TV, audio/video cables, or power 

cord.

ANTENNA INSTALLATION SAFETY

Outdoor Antenna Grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the LED TV, be sure the 

antenna or cable system is grounded to prevent voltage surges and built-up static 

charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANS/NFPA 70, provides 

information on proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of 

the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, 

and requirements for the grounding electrode.

CLEANING THE LED TV

To clean the screen:

1 Wipe the screen with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth. This removes dust and other 

particles.

2 If it is still not clean, apply a small amount of non-ammonia, non-alcohol 

based glass cleaner onto a clean, soft, lint-free cloth, and wipe the screen.

To clean the case:

1 Wipe the case with a soft, dry cloth.

2 If it is still not clean, apply a small amount of non-ammonia, non-alcohol 

based, mild non-abrasive detergent onto a clean, soft, lint-free cloth, then 

wipe the surface.
