The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporating a 13A
fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved BS 1362 fuse marked or
and of the same rating as above, which is also indicated on the pin face of the plug, must be used.
Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.
In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied,
cut off the mains plug and fit an appropriate type.
DANGER:
The fuse from the cut-off plug should be removed and the cut-off plug destroyed immediately and
disposed of in a safe manner.
Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted elsewhere into a 13A socket outlet, as a
serious electric shock may occur.
To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:
IMPORTANT:
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Blue: Neutral
Brown: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this product may not correspond with the coloured
markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked N or coloured black.
•
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked L or coloured red.
•
Ensure that neither the brown nor the blue wire is connected to the earth terminal in your three-pin
plug.
Before replacing the plug cover make sure that:
If the new fitted plug contains a fuse, its value is the same as that removed from the cut-off plug.
•
The cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the mains lead, and not simply over the lead wires.
•
IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT, CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

Introduction
Important Safety Precautions
Cleaning—Unplug the AC cord from the AC outlet before cleaning the product. Use a damp cloth to clean the product. Do not use
•
liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
Water and moisture—Do not use the product near water, such as bathtub, washbasin, kitchen sink, laundry tub, swimming pool and
•
in a wet basement.
Do not place vases or any other water-filled containers on this product. The water may spill onto the product
•
causing fire or electric shock.
Stand—Do not place the product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod or table. Doing so can cause the product
•
to fall, resulting in serious personal injuries as well as damage to the product. Use only a cart, stand, tripod,
bracket or table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the product. When mounting the product on
a wall, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Use only the mounting hardware recommended by the
manufacturer.
When relocating the product placed on a cart, it must be moved with utmost care. Sudden stops, excessive
•
force and uneven floor surface can cause the product to fall from the cart.
Ventilation—The vents and other openings in the cabinet are designed for ventilation. Do not cover or block
•
these vents and openings since insufficient ventilation can cause overheating and/or shorten the life of the
product. Do not place the product on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface, since they can block ventilation
openings. This product is not designed for built-in installation; do not place the product in an enclosed place
such as a bookcase or rack, unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions are
followed.
The LCD panel used in this product is made of glass. Therefore, it can break when the product is dropped or
•
impact applied. If the LCD panel is broken, be careful not to be injured by broken glass.
Heat sources—Keep the product away from heat sources such as radiators, heaters, stoves and other heat-
•
generating products (including amplifiers).
To prevent fire, never place any type of candle or naked flames on the top or near the TV set.•
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place the AC cord under the TV set or other heavy items.•
Headphones—Do not set the volume at a high level. Hearing experts advise against extended listening at high volume levels.•
Do not display a still picture for a long time, as this could cause an afterimage to remain.•
There is power consumption always if main plug is connected.•
Servicing—Do not attempt to service the product yourself. Removing covers can expose you to high voltage and other dangerous
•
conditions. Request a qualified person to perform servicing.
The LCD panel is a very high technology product, giving you fine picture details.
Due to the very large number of pixels, occasionally a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green or
red. This is within product specifications and does not constitute a fault.
Precautions when transporting the TV
When transporting the TV, never carry it by holding onto the speakers. Be sure to always carry the TV by two people holding it with two
hands—one hand on each side of the TV.

CAUTION
Improper use of batteries can result in chemical leakage or explosion. Be sure to follow the instructions below.
Do not mix batteries of different types. Different types of batteries have different characteristics.
•
Do not mix old and new batteries. Mixing old and new batteries can shorten the life of new batteries or cause chemical leakage in old
•
batteries.
•
Remove batteries as soon as they have worn out. Chemicals that leak from batteries can cause a rash. If you find any chemical leakage,
wipe thoroughly with a cloth.
•
The batteries supplied with this product may have a shorter life expectancy due to storage conditions.
•
If you will not be using the remote control unit for an extended period of time, remove the batteries from it.
Using the remote control unit
Use the remote control unit by pointing it towards the remote control sensor. Objects between the remote control unit
and sensor may prevent proper operation.

Cautions regarding the remote control unit
Do not expose the remote control unit to shock. In addition, do not expose the remote
•
control unit to liquids, and do not place in an area with high humidity.
Do not install or place the remote control unit under direct sunlight. The heat may cause
•
deformation of the unit.

What is Teletext?
Teletext broadcasts pages of information and
entertainment to specially equipped TV. Your TV receives
teletext signals broadcast by a TV network, and decodes
them into graphical format for viewing. News, weather

programme previews are among the many services
available.

these systems. The pages are divided into topic groups
and topics. After switching on the teletext, up to 2,000
pages are stored for fast access.

The HDMI connections permit digital video and
audio transmission via a connection cable from a
player/recorder. The digital picture and sound data are
transmitted without data compression and therefore lose
none of their quality. Analogue/digital conversion is no
longer necessary in the connected devices, which also
would result in quality losses.
