Safety Precautions

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

SOME DOS AND DON’TS ON THE SAFE USE OF
EQUIPMENT

This equipment has been designed and manufactured
to meet international safety standards but, like any
electrical equipment, care must be taken if you are to
obtain the best results and safety is to be assured.

**************
DO read the operating instructions before you attempt

to use the equipment.
DO ensure that all electrical connections (including

the mains plug, extension leads and inter-connections
between the pieces of equipment) are properly
made and in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions. Switch off and withdraw the mains plug
before making or changing connections.

DO consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt
about the installation, operation or safety of your
equipment.

DO be careful with glass panels or doors on
equipment.

DO route the mains lead so that it is not likely to be
walked on, crushed, chafed, or subjected to excessive
wear and tear or heat.

**************
DON’T remove any fi xed cover as this may expose

dangerous voltages.
DON’T obstruct the ventilation openings of the

equipment with items such as newspapers, tablecloths,
curtains, etc. Overheating will cause damage and
shorten the life of the equipment.

DON’T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to
dripping or splashing, or objects fi lled with liquids, such
as vases, to be placed on the equipment.

DON’T place hot objects or naked fl ame sources
such as lighted candles or nightlights on, or close to
equipment. High temperatures can melt plastic and
lead to fi res.

DON’T use makeshift stands and NEVER fi x legs
with wood screws - to ensure

complete safety always fit the manufacturer’s
approved stand or legs with the fi xings

provided according to the instructions.
DON’T use equipment such as personal stereos or

radios so that you are distracted from
the requirements of traffi c safety. It is illegal to watch

television whilst driving.
DON’T listen to headphones at high volume, as such

use can permanently damage your

English - 3 -

hearing.
DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is

unattended unless it is specifi cally stated
that it is designed for unattended operation or has a

stand-by mode. Switch off using the
switch on the equipment and make sure that your

family know how to do this. Special
arrangements may need to be made for infi rm or

handicapped people.
DON’T continue to operate the equipment if you are

in any doubt about it working
normally, or if it is damaged in any way - switch off,

withdraw the mains plug and consult
your dealer.

ABOVE ALL

--- NEVER let anyone especially children push
anything into holes, slots or any other opening
in the case - this could result in a fatal electrical
shock;

--- NEVER guess or take chances with electrical
equipment of any kind

--- it is better to be safe than sorry!

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

ventilation and to ensure reliable operation. T o prevent
overheating, these openings must not be blocked or
covered in anyway.

Heat and Flames

The set should not be placed near to
open fl ames 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.

Waste Disposal

Instructions for waste disposal:•

Packaging and packaging aids are recyclable and

building installation through the mains connection or
through other apparatus with a connection to protective
earthing-and to a television distribution system using
coaxial cable, may in some circumstances create a
fi re hazard.

Connection to a cable distribution system has
therefore to be provided through a device providing
electrical isolation below a certain frequency range
(galvanic isolator, see EN 60728-11).

power cord should principally be separated from the
mains socket prior to a longer period of non-usage,
i.e. during vacations.
