power cord by the plug. Do not unplug the appliance
by pulling from the power cord and never touch the
power cord with wet hands as this could cause a short
circuit or electric shock. Never make a knot in the cord
or tie it with other cords. The power cords should be
placed in such a way that they are not likely to be
stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause fi re or
give you an electric shock. When it is damaged and
needs to be replaced, it should be done by qualifi ed
personnel.

Moisture and Water

Do not use this device in a humid

Tips

Screen Care

Clean the screen with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Do
not use abrasive solvents as they may damage the
coating layer of the TV screen.

For your safety, unplug the mains plug when cleaning
the set. When moving the TV, hold it properly from
the bottom part.

Image Persistence

Please note that ghosting may occur while displaying
a persistent image. LCD TVs’ image persistence may
disappear after a short time. Try turning off the TV
for a while.

To avoid this, do not leave the screen in still picture
for extended periods.

No Power

If your TV system has no power, please check the
main power cable and connection to the mains
socket outlet.

Poor Picture

Have you selected the correct TV system? Is your TV
set or house aerial located too close to a non-earthed
audio equipment or neon lights, etc.?

Mountains or high buildings can cause double pictures
or ghost images. Sometimes you can improve the
picture quality by changing the direction of the
aerial.

Is the picture or teletext unrecognisable? Check if you
have entered the correct frequency. Please retune
the channels.

The picture quality may degrade when two peripherals
are connected to the TV at the same time. In such a
case, disconnect one of the peripherals.

No Picture

Is the aerial connected properly? Are the plugs
connected tightly to the aerial socket? Is the aerial
cable damaged? Are suitable plugs used to connect
the aerial? If you are in doubt, consult your dealer.

No Picture means that your TV is not receiving a
transmission. Have you selected the correct button
on the remote control? Try once more.

Also make sure the correct input source has been
selected.

Sound

Y ou can not hear any sound. Did you perhaps interrupt
the sound, pressing the button?

Sound is coming from only one of the speakers. Is the
balance set to one extreme? See Sound Menu.

Remote Control

Your TV no longer responds to the remote control.
Perhaps the batteries are exhausted. If so you can still
use the local buttons at the bottom of the TV.

Input Sources

If you cannot select an input source, it is possible that
no device is connected.

Check the A V cables and connections if you have tried
to connect a device.

Safety Precautions

Please read the following recommended safety
precautions carefully for your safety.

Power Source

The TV set should be operated only from a 220-240
V AC, 50 Hz outlet. Ensure that you select the correct
voltage setting for your convenience.

Power Cord

Do not place the set, a piece of furniture, etc. on the
power cord (mains lead) or pinch the cord. Handle the
power cord by the plug. Do not unplug the appliance
by pulling from the power cord and never touch the
power cord with wet hands as this could cause a short
circuit or electric shock. Never make a knot in the cord
or tie it with other cords. The power cords should be
placed in such a way that they are not likely to be
stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause fi re or
give you an electric shock. When it is damaged and
needs to be replaced, it should be done by qualifi ed
personnel.

Moisture and Water

Do not use this device in a humid
and damp place (avoid the bathroom,
the sink in the kitchen, and near the
washing machine). Do not expose this
device to rain or water, as this may be
dangerous and do not place objects
filled with liquids, such as flower
vases, on top. Avoid from dripping
or splashing.

If any solid object or liquid falls into the cabinet, unplug
the TV and have it checked by qualifi ed personnel
before operating it any further.

Cleaning

Before cleaning, unplug the TV set
from the wall outlet. Do not use
liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use soft
and dry cloth.

Ventilation

The slots and openings on the TV
set are intended for ventilation and to ensure reliable
operation. To prevent overheating, these openings
must not be blocked or covered in anyway.

Heat and Flames

The set should not be placed near
to open flames and sources of
intense heat such as an electric
heater. Ensure that no open fl ame
sources, such as lighted candles,
are placed on top of the TV.
Batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat
such as sunshine, fi re or the like.

Lightning

In case of storm and lightning or when
going on holiday, disconnect the power
cord from the wall outlet.

Replacement Parts

When replacement parts are required, make sure that
the service technician has used replacement parts,
which are specifi ed by the manufacturer or have the
same specifi cations as the original one. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in fi re, electrical shock or
other hazards.

Servicing

Please refer all servicing to qualifi ed
personnel. Do not remove the cover
yourself as this may result in an
electric shock.

Tips

Screen Care

Clean the screen with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Do
not use abrasive solvents as they may damage the
coating layer of the TV screen.

For your safety, unplug the mains plug when cleaning
the set. When moving the TV, hold it properly from
the bottom part.

Image Persistence

Please note that ghosting may occur while displaying
a persistent image. LCD TVs’ image persistence may
disappear after a short time. Try turning off the TV
for a while.

To avoid this, do not leave the screen in still picture
for extended periods.

No Power

If your TV system has no power, please check the
main power cable and connection to the mains
socket outlet.

Poor Picture

Have you selected the correct TV system? Is your TV
set or house aerial located too close to a non-earthed
audio equipment or neon lights, etc.?

Mountains or high buildings can cause double pictures
or ghost images. Sometimes you can improve the
picture quality by changing the direction of the
aerial.

Is the picture or teletext unrecognisable? Check if you
have entered the correct frequency. Please retune
the channels.

The picture quality may degrade when two peripherals
are connected to the TV at the same time. In such a
case, disconnect one of the peripherals.

No Picture

Is the aerial connected properly? Are the plugs
connected tightly to the aerial socket? Is the aerial
cable damaged? Are suitable plugs used to connect
the aerial? If you are in doubt, consult your dealer.

No Picture means that your TV is not receiving a
transmission. Have you selected the correct button
on the remote control? Try once more.

Also make sure the correct input source has been
selected.

Sound

You can not hear any sound. Did you perhaps interrupt
the sound, pressing the button?

Sound is coming from only one of the speakers. Is the
balance set to one extreme? See Sound Menu.

Remote Control

Your TV no longer responds to the remote control.
Perhaps the batteries are exhausted. If so you can still
use the local buttons at the bottom of the TV.

Input Sources

If you cannot select an input source, it is possible that
no device is connected.

Check the AV cables and connections if you have tried
to connect a device.
