Additional Safety Precautions:

Do not shift or move the LCD TV around when it is powered on. Do not connect any AC/DC adapter to your LCD TV that does not originally come with the television. Only use

the recommended part or parts that are approved by Philips Consumer Electronics. Caution: Do not use any cover or enclose the AC/DC adapter with any objects like a cloth or box which might

shorten the life of the equipment.

Do not touch, push or rub the surface of the LCD screen with any sharp or hard objects.

When the surface of the LCD screen becomes dusty, wipe it gently with an absorbent cotton cloth or other soft

material like chamois. DO NOT use acetone, toluene or alcohol to clean the surface of the screen. These chemi-

cals will cause damage. Wipe off water, or saliva as soon as possible. Long exposer time to liquids can cause deformation and color fad-

ing of the LCD screen. Be careful of condensation when temperature changes occur. Condensation can cause damage to the LCD

screen and electrically parts. After condensation fades, spots or blemishes will be present on the LCD screen.

Positioning the LCD Television:

Place the LCD TV on a solid, sturdy base or stand. Be sure the stand is strong enough to handle the weight of

the LCD TV. Try to leave at least 6" of space around each side of the LCD TV cabinet to allow for proper ventilation.

Do not place the LCD TV near a radiator or other sources of heat. Do not place the LCD TV where it can be exposed to rain or excessive moisture.

Recycling Procedure/End of Life Disposal:

To minimize harm to the environment, the batteries supplied with the LCD TV do not contain mercury or nickel cadmium. If possible, when disposing of batteries, use recycling means available in your area.

The LCD TV uses materials that can be recycled. To minimize the amount of waste in the environment, check your area for companies that will recover used televisions for dismantling and collection of reusable materials, or contact your dealer for TV recycling tips.

Please dispose of the carton and packing material through the proper waste disposal management in your area.
