SET-UP AND SAFETY

___________________________

Please note the following information when setting up your television set. 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, as 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.

Do not open the television set under any circumstances. Warranty claims are excluded for damage resulting from improper handling.

Ensure that the mains cable and the mains adapter are not damaged. The television set may only be operated with the mains cable/adapter 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.

Only clean the plasma screen with a chamois leather and commercially available glass cleaner. Only clean the housing of the plasma television with a damp, soft cloth, and plain water.

The Plasma screen is equipped with a glass plate. If the device is subjected to excessive strain, for example through vibration, bending or heat shocks the glass plate can break. Do not hit or put pressure on the glass plate. Should the glass plate be damaged, pull out the main plug immediately.

Plasma screens use the principle of luminescent material. This technology can suffer sticking effects under certain operating conditions. This can include: – Prolonged display of a freeze-frame – Constant display of the same background – Use of a picture format (such as 4:3) which does not fill the screen.

Once these sticking effects occur, they cannot normally be reversed. To avoid sticking effects please note: – During the first 100 operating hours, ensure that the television

displays mostly moving pictures or frequently changing stills which fill

the screen – Use a picture format which fills the screen (16:9) – Always activate the screensaver when using a PC – Decrease the contrast and brightness as much as possible – Switch off the device when it is not in use

If a freeze-frame is on the Plasma screen for a very long time (several hours), it is possible that this will be visible as a ghosting effect for some time when you switch to another channel. However, after a certain amount of time this ghosting disappears again. This can be caused by a type of memory effect. In order to prevent this effect, we recommend activating the screen saver when using a PC.

After a lengthy period without use (longer than one year) a temporary colour discrepancy is possible in some circumstances. This effect is normal for plasma screens. After a while these colour discrepancies disappear again.

A plasma screen is made up of around. 1.2 million colour pixels. Within the industrial standard tolerance, a very small number of pixels (0.001 %) can be defective. This is not regarded as a device defect under the terms of the warranty.

The plasma screen functions with inert gases and air pressure. At 2,000 m above sea-level or higher, the picture can become unstable and the picture quality is reduced. However, when the device is returned to below 2,000 m above sea-level, this effect disappears and the device functions perfectly.

Note:

Do not connect any other equipment while the device is switched on. Switch off the other equipment as well before connecting it. Only plug the device into the mains socket after you have connected the external devices and the antenna.
