For your safety

• Locate the TV on a firm, flat and stable surface (not on carpeting).

• Do not lift the TV set by the frame around the picture tube.

• Allow space for air to pass freely through ventilation holes on the top, sides and bottom of the TV.

• Make sure the TV is at room temperature before switching it on.

• Check that your mains electricity supply is suitable for the TV, 210-240V at 50Hz.

• Unplug the receiver from the wall sockets during thunderstorms or when the TV will not be used for a long time.

• This TV is for indoor use only. Do not expose it to rain or excessive moisture.

• Before cleaning your TV, switch it off and unplug it from the wall sockets. Use a soft damp cloth and a mild solution of washing-up liquid to clean the cabinet and screen.

• Do not use petrol, thinners, alcohol, wax remover or other solvents on the TV.

• Do not place anything on top of the TV.

• Do not place anything with liquid in it above or near the TV - it could spill and cause electric shock or damage to the TV.

• Do not allow any objects, such as hairpins or coins, to get inside the TV.

• If liquid is spilt, or any objects get inside the TV, disconnect it from the wall socket and have it checked by authorised service personnel.

• Do not subject the mains lead to sharp bends, heat or chemicals. If the mains lead is damaged, disconnect it from the wall socket and have it checked by authorised service personnel.

• Do not remove the back cover of the TV. This TV has no user serviceable parts inside. Refer all servicing to authorised service personnel.

• Some radio transmitters like GSM-phones can cause a malfunction. Example: The receiver does not respond to the remote control commands. Switch off the receiver by using the mains switch, wait for about 10 seconds and switch the receiver on again.
