• Do not allow children to play unattended on electrical equipment.
Children may not always correctly recognize danger.
• Keep the packing materials, such as plastic bags away from children.
The danger of suffocation could arise in the case of misuse.
• Never open the housing of the TFT display (electric shock, short-
circuit and the danger of fire)!
• Do not insert any objects through the slots and openings into the
inside of the TFT (electrical shock, short-circuit and the danger of fire)!
• The remote control has a class 1m infrared diode. Do not examine the
LED with optical instruments!
• Slots and openings in the TFT display are for ventilation purpose. Do
not cover these openings, as otherwise this may lead to overheating
(overheating, danger of fire)!
• Never exert pressure on the display. This could damage the display.
• An injury hazard exists when the display breaks. Wear protective
gloves to pack the broken parts and send them into your service
center for proper disposal. Then wash your hands with soap, because
it is possible for chemicals to escape.
• Do not touch the display with your fingers or with sharp objects to
avoid damage.
• Please proceed as outlined in the service center section:
– if the AC cable overheats or is damaged
– if liquid has gotten into the display
– if the device does not work properly
– if the device is dropped or the housing damaged
• In the first hours of operation, new devices may emit a typical,
unavoidable but completely harmless smell, which will decline
increasingly in the course of time.
• We recommend you to ventilate the room regularly, in order to
counteract the formation of the smell.
• Keep your LCD TV and all units connected to it away from moisture
and avoid dust, heat and direct sunlight. Failure to observe these
instructions can lead to malfunctions or damage to the LCD TV.
• Do not operate your device in the open air, because external
influences, such as rain, snow, etc. could damage the device.
• Do not subject the device to drops or splashes of water and do not
place any vessels filled with water, such as vases, on the device. Water
penetrating the device can impair its electrical safety.
• Do not place any open sources of fire (candles or similar objects) on
the device.
• Leave sufficiently large clearances to allow for ventilation, particularly
when mounting in a cupboard or alcove. Maintain a minimum
clearance of 10 cm around the device for sufficient ventilation.
• Place and operate all units on a stable, level and vibration-free surface
in order to avoid the LCD TV from falling.
• Avoid dazzle, reflections, extreme light/dark contrast in order to save
your eyes and ensure a pleasant viewing experience.
• The optimum viewing distance is 5 times the screen diagonal.
• Connecting an USB device at the USB socket:
If necessary, make back-up copies on an external storage medium.
The supplier does not assume liability for data loss or damage to data
storage units, and no claims can be accepted for damages resulting
from the loss of data or consequential losses.
• Leave all repairs of your LCD TV to authorized and qualified personnel
only.
• Should a repair be necessary, please contact one of our authorized
service center.
Intended Environment
• The device can be operated at an ambient temperature of between
5° C to 35° C and at a relative humidity between 20% and 85%
(without condensation).
• When switched off, the LCD-TV can be stored most reliably between -
20° C - +60° C).
• Provide an interval of at least one meter from high-frequency and
magnetic sources of interference (television sets, loudspeakers,
mobile telephones, etc.) in order to avoid malfunctions.
• After transporting your LCD TV please wait until it has assumed the
ambient temperature before connecting and switching it on.
• Large variations in temperature and humidity can cause condensation
to occur inside the LCD-TV, which may cause an electrical short
circuit.
• Disconnect the power plug from the power socket and the aerial
from the aerial connection during storms or if the device is not being
used for a long time.
Power Supply
Please pay attention: Parts of the device are still live, even if
the mains switch is switched off. Pull the mains plug out of
the socket, to interrupt the power supply to your LCD TV
completely.
• Operate your TFT display mains (power supply) only on grounded
sockets with 230 V ~ 50 Hz. If you have doubts about the power
supply in the location where the LCD-TV is installed, consult your
energy supplier.
• For additional safety we recommend use of an excessive voltage
protection device to protect your LCD TV from damage resulting from
voltage surges or lightning.
• The power socket must be in the vicinity of your LCD TV and within
reach of the power cables.
• If you use an extension cable, please ensure that it complies with the
VDE requirements. If necessary consult your electrical equipment
supplier.
