For Your Safety

WARNING

Safety Information

All TVs operate on extremely high voltages. To prevent fire or electric shock, please follow the safety procedures indicated below.

For General Safety

• Do not expose the set to rain or moisture.

• Do not remove the rear cover.

• For your protection, refer all servicing to qualified

personnel only.

For Safe Installation

• Do not install the projection TV in hot, humid or

excessively dusty places.

• Do not block or cover the ventilation openings. For

ventilation, leave a space of at least 10 cm all around the set.

• Do not install the projection TV where it may be

exposed to mechanical vibrations.

• To obtain a clear picture, do not expose the screen to

direct illumination or direct sunlight. If possible, use spot lighting directed down from the ceiling.

• After transporting the projection TV directly from a

cold to a warm location, or if the room temperature has changed suddenly, pictures may be blurred or show poor colour over portions of the picture. This is because moisture has condensed on the mirrors or lenses inside the projection TV. Let the moisture evaporate before using the projection TV.

For Safe Operation

• Do not operate the projection TV set on anything other

than a 220-240V AC, 50Hz supply.

• Do not operate the projection TV if any liquid or solid

objects fall in through the ventilation slots. Have it checked immediately.

• For environmental and safety reasons, it is

recommended that the projection TV set is not left in standby mode when not in use. Switch off at the mains.

• Do not disconnect the projection TV by pulling on the

power cable. Disconnect by removing the mains plug.

• In case of a thunderstorm, disconnect the projection

TV set from the main supply and the aerial. Otherwise the set may be damaged by a lighting strike.

• Displaying a still picture for long periods of time, for

instance, when operating a video game or personal computer and viewing a programme in 4:3 mode, may damage the picture tube. To avoid this, keep the picture contrast level low.

For Maintenance

• Clean the projection TV screen and cabinet with a soft

dampened cloth. Do not use any abrasive cleaners. As a safety precaution, unplug the set before cleaning it.

• Dust and nicotine deposits may cause heat

accumulation inside the projection TV set. In the long term this could be a safety risk and may shorten the lifetime of your projection TV set. Therefore have your set serviced about every five years.

• Avoid touching the screen, and take care not to scratch

the surface with hard objects.
