Important safety instructions
Important information regarding use of
video games, computers, captions and
other xed image displays.
The extended use of xed image program material can
cause a permanent “shadow image “ on LCD screen (this
is sometimes incorrectly referred to as “burnout to the
screen“). This shadow image is then permanently visible
on the screen in the backro-und. It is a partly irreversible
damage. You can avoid such a damage by respecting the
following instructions:
Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum
viewing level.
Do not display the xed image for a long period of time.
Avoid displaying of:
» Teletext time and charts,
» TV/DVD menu, e.g. DVD contents,
» In the „Pause“ mode (hold): Do not use this mode for a
long time, e.g. while watching a DVD or a video.
» Turn o the appliance if you are not using it.
Batteries
Observe the correct polarity when inser-
ting the batteries.
Do not expose batteries to high tempera-
tures and do not place them on locations
where the temperature might increase
quickly, e.g. near the re or on the direct
sunshine.
Do not expose batteries to excessive
radiant heat, do not throw them into the
re, do not disassemble them and do not try ato recharge
unrechargeable batteries. They could leak out or explode.
» Never use di erent batteries together or mix new and
old ones.
» Dispose of batteries in an environmentally friendly way.
» Most of the EU countries regulate the disposal of batte-
ries by law.

How to connect a signal booster
If you are missing channels, the reason for this is likely to be signal strength, you should consider connecting signal booster and
re-tuning the TV.
As part of our ongoing development to reduce power consumption, we have added an extra function to this Television called
‘Ecohome’ (you will see this during the fi rst time installation set up). Power consumption using the Ecohome function is
approximately 15% lower than some other modes. The picture brightness is reduced using the Ecohome function. If this function is
not suitable for your viewing environment, you can select other modes as necessary. (Please note, ‘Professional’ mode is for optimum
default picture settings, however, power consumption is approximately 15% higher than ‘Ecohome’ mode)
Please refer to the user guide section ‘Picture settings’ in order to change the mode to one that maybe more suitable for your
environment. There is also a shortcut button on the remote control called ‘P-Mode’ should you wish to change to another mode.
