CUSTOMER INFORMATION

__________________________________

Additional Information for Units sold in Great Britain

Units sold in GB are suitable for operation from a 240 V AC, 50 Hz mains supply.
In case this appliance is supplied with a Safety Standard Approved mains lead
fitted with a non-rewireable 13 Amp mains plug which, if unsuitable for your
socket, should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted by a qualified electrici­an. The fuse and fuse holder must be removed from the plug as accidental inser­tion of the redundant plug into a 13 Amp socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard.

Note:

The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard should it
be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.
If it is necessary to change the fuse in the non-rewireable plug, the correct type
and rating (5 Amp ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362) must be used and the fuse
cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged the lead and plug
must not be used until a replacement is obtained. Replacement fuse covers
should be obtained from your dealer.
If a non-rewireable plug or a rewireable 13 Amp (BS 1363) plug is used, it must
be fitted with a 5 Amp ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362 fuse. If any other type of
plug is used it must be protected by a 5 Amp fuse either in the plug or at the dis­tribution board.

Important:

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
BLUE – NEUTRAL
BROWN – LIVE
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not correspond with the

coloured marking identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
Connect the BLUE coloured wire to plug terminal marked with the letter "N" or coloured black.
Connect the BROWN coloured wire to the plug terminal marked with a letter "L" or coloured

red.
In no circumstance must any of the wires be connected to the terminal marked with a letter "E",

earth symbol , coloured green or green and yellow.
Replacement mains lead can be obtained from your dealer.

In order that this quality, easy-to-use television set continues to provide you with
satisfaction and entertainment, please observe the following when setting it up.

This television set is designed to receive and display video and audio signals.
Any other use is expressly prohibited.

The ideal viewing distance is 5 times the screen diagonal.
External light falling on the screen impairs picture quality.

Ensure sufficient clearance between the TV and the wall cabinet.

The television set is designed for use in dry rooms. If you do use it in the open,
please ensure that it is protected from moisture, such as rain or splashing water.
Do not expose the television set to any moisture.

Do not place any vessels such as vases on the television, as they may spill liquid,
thus presenting a safety risk.
Place the television set on a solid, level surface. Do not place any objects such as
newspapers on the television set or cloth or similar items beneath it.

Do not place the television set close to heating units or in direct sunlight. This will
impair cooling.
Heat build-up can be dangerous and shortens the operating life of the television
set. For reasons of safety, have a specialist remove any dirt deposits (dust) in the
set from time to time.
Keep the television set away from magnetic fields (loudspeaker boxes, for exam­ple).

SET-UP AND SAFETY

_________________________________________________________________

Do not open the television set under any circumstances. The manufacturer
accepts no liability for damage resulting from improper handling.

Ensure that the mains cable is not damaged.

Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical devices. Even if the television set is
switched off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to the mains or the anten­na cable. Always disconnect the mains and antenna plugs during a storm.

Clean the screen with a soft, damp cloth. Only use plain water.

This television set successfully fuses technology and environmental friendliness
into a coherent package. Only ecologically compatible, high-quality materials
have been used. The packaging consists of almost 100% recycled paper and the
amount of plastic used has been reduced to a minimum. The batteries included
are free of mercury and cadmium. The range of materials used has been delibe­rately restricted and all the larger plastic parts have been labelled. This televisi­on set is easily disassembled to make servicing easier and optimise recycling.
