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 place any vessels such as vases on the television, as they
may spill fluid on the electrical components, thus presenting a
safety risk.

Place the television set on an 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 in the set from time to time.

Keep the television set away from magnetic fields (loudspeaker
boxes, for example).

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.
The television set must only be operated with the mains cable set

supplied.
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.

Limiting channel position selection

The station search stores all the television channels it finds and

4 Select the »– –« line using »..« or »,,« and then use

»1...0« to enter »00«.

5 Press »OK« to save the setting.

– Now only the first 5 channel positions can be selected using

»..« or »,,«.
– The »AV« channel position can only be selected using »..«.

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.
