SAFETY INFORMATION AND USEFUL T IPS
Safety Information
• Disconnect mains plug when :
– the red light below the TV screen is flashing continuously.
– a bright white line is displayed across the screen.
– cleaning the TV screen. Never use abrasive cleaning agents. Use a slight damp chamois
leather or soft cloth.
– there is a lightning storm.
– the set is left unattended for a prolonged period of time.
• No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on top of the TV or
in the vicinity.
• Do not place your TV set under direct sunlight or heat.
• Leave at least 5 cm around each side of TV set to allow for proper ventilation.
• Avoid placing your set (e.g. near the window) where it is likely to be exposed to rain
or water.
• No objects filled with liquids should be placed on top the TV so as to avoid dripping
or splashing of liquids on the set.
Useful Tips
• Do not leave your set on standby mode for a prolonged period of time. Switch off set
to allow it to be demagnetised. A demagnetised set supports good picture quality.
• Do not shift or move the set around when it is switched on. Uneveness in colour in
some parts of the screen may occur.
• Never attempt to repair a defective TV yourself. Always consult a skilled service
personnel.
Recycling Directive – To minimise harm to the environment, the batteries
supplied with the TV set do not contain mercury or nickel cadmium. If possible,
when disposing of batteries, use recycling means available to you. Your TV set
uses materials which are reusable or which can be recycled. To minimise the
amount of waste in the environment, specialist companies recover used sets for
dismantling and collection of reusable materials (contact your dealer).
