SPECIAL NOTE FOR USERS IN THE U.K.
ASA
The mains lead of this product is tted with a non-rewireable (moulded)
plug incorporating a 5A 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 ret the fuse cover after replacing the fuse. Never use the plug
without the fuse cover tted.
In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being
compatible with the plug supplied, cut off the mains plug and t 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 t 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 tted 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.

Use a soft damp cloth to gently wipe the panel when it is dirty. To protect the panel, do not use a chemical cloth to clean it. Chemicals may •
cause damage or cracks in the cabinet of the TV.
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-lled containers on this product. The water may spill onto the product causing re 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 •
oor 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 insufcient 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

lead) or pinch the cord. Handle the power cord by the plug. Do not
unplug the appliance by pulling from the power cord and never touch
the power cord with wet hands as this could cause a short circuit or
electric shock. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cords.

Cleaning
Before cleaning, unplug the TV set from the wall outlet.
Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use soft and dry
cloth.
Ventilation
The slots and openings on the TV set are intended for
ventilation and to ensure reliable operation. To prevent overheating,
these openings must not be blocked or covered in anyway.
Heat and Flames
The set should not be placed near to open ames and
sources of intense heat such as an electric heater. Ensure
that no open ame sources, such as lighted candles, are
placed on top of the TV. Batteries should not be exposed
to excessive heat such as sunshine, re or the like.
Lightning
In case of storm and lightning or when going on holiday,
disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.
Replacement Parts
When replacement parts are required, make sure that the service
technician has used replacement parts, which are specied by the
manufacturer or have the same specications as the original one.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in re, electrical shock or other
hazards.
Servicing
Please refer all servicing to qualied personnel. Do
not remove the cover yourself as this may result in an
electric shock.
Waste Disposal
Packaging and packaging aids are recyclable and should principally •
be recycled. Packaging materials, such as a foil bag should be kept
away from children
Batteries, including those which are heavy metal free, should not be •
disposed of with household waste. Please dispose of used batteries
in an environmentally friendly manner. Find out about the legal
regulations which apply in your area.
Do not try to recharge batteries, there is a danger of explosion. •
Replace batteries only with the same or equivalent type.
This symbol on the product or on its packaging means that your
electrical and electronic device should be disposed at the
end of its service life separately from your household
wastes. There are separate collection systems for recycling
in the EU. For more information, please contact the local
au th or it y or the dealer w he re you purch as ed the
product.
Disconnecting the Device
The mains plug is used to disconnect the TV set from the mains and
therefore it must remain readily operable.
Headphone Volume
Excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones
can cause hearing loss.
Installation
To prevent injury, this device must be securely attached to the wall in
accordance with the installation instructions when mounted to the wall
(if the option is available).
LCD Screen
The LCD panel is a very high technology product with about a million
thin lm transistors, giving you ne picture details. Occasionally, a few
non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a xed blue, green
or red point. Please note that this does not affect the performance of
your product.
Warning! Do not leave your TV in standby or operating mode when
you leave your house.
Connection to a Television Distribution System (Cable
TV etc.) from Tuner
Device connected to the protective earthing of the building installation
through the mains connection or through other apparatus with a
connection to protective earthing-and to a television distribution
system using coaxial cable, may in some circumstances create a re
hazard.
Connection to a cable distribution system has therefore to be provided
through a device providing electrical isolation below a certain frequency
range (galvanic isolator, see EN 60728-11).
Note:The HDMI connection between PC and TV may cause radio
interference in which case it is recommended to use VGA(DSUB-15)
connection.
The Standby Off/On button doesn´t separate this device completely
from mains. Moreover the device consumes power in the standby
operation. In order to separate the device completely from mains, the
mains plug has to be pulled from the mains socket. Because of that
the device should be set up in a way, that an unobstructed access to
mains socket is guaranteed, so that in case of emergency the mains
plug can be pulled immediately. To exclude the danger of re, the power
cord should principally be separated from the mains socket prior to a
longer period of non-usage, i.e. during vacations.
