1. Cautions for safety
Note: This set can be operated on an AC power of 240V, 50Hz. You must not use
!
a power supply of any other type.
When any unusual situation occurs, turn off the
power supply at once and remove the plug from the
wall outlet. Contact a qualified service department in
your local area.
Do not expose the TV set to rain or excessive
moisture. Avoid using the set in very warm or
damp places and never use it in a bathroom.
When cleaning dust off the picture tube disconnect
the power first. You can wipe lightly with a piece of
dry, clean and soft cloth.
Normally, the screen surface should not be cleaned;
however, if it is essential, clean the surface with a soft,
dry cloth while the TV is turned off. Never use any
detergent cleaners to clean the surface. The screen
surface may be scratched if a hard cloth is used
Avoid exposing the set to direct sunlight and other
sources of heat to prevent damage to the cabinet
and components.
High voltage exists in this TV set. Do not remove the
cover.
Do not cover the ventilating hole in the cabinet
Keep a space of more than 5 cm from the walls to the
TV set to ensure adequate ventilation.
If the power cord or the plug is damaged contact a
qualified service department for service.
When the TV set is to be left unattended for a long
period of time, turn off the power supply and remove
the plug from the wall outlet.
Don’t try to push anything into the cabinet or place
any vessel with water on the TV set.
Don't overload wall outlets; extension cords, or
integral convenience receptacles as this can result
in a risk of fire or electric shock.
