WARNING

To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture. Dangerously high voltages are present inside the set. Do not open the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.

Safety Information

All TVs operate on extremely high voltages. To prevent fire or electric shock, please follow the safety procedures below. For your protection, refer all servicing to qualified personnel only.

For general safety:

• Do not expose the TV to rain or moisture.

• Do not open the rear cover.

For safe operations:

• Do not operate the TV on any other voltages, but 220– 240 V AC.

• Do not operate the TV if any liquid or solid object falls in it

- have it checked immediately.

• Do not keep the set plugged in if you are not going to use it for several days.

• Do not pull on the power cord to disconnect the TV. Pull it out by the plug.

• Do not place anything on the surface of the front panel cover when you open it.

Important Information

Please read the following information on using and maintaining the TV, for optimum viewing quality.

Picture Quality

• Poor colour registration (the red, green and blue signals do not overlap properly) may be caused by the influence of the earth’s magnetism. Correct this with the convergence adjustment.

• Avoid touching the screen, and take care not to scratch the surface with hard objects.

• Displaying a still picture for long periods of time, for instance, when operating a video game or personal computer and viewing a programme in 16:9 mode, may damag the picture tube. To avoid this, keep the picture contrast level low.

Illumination

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.

Installation

• To prevent over heating of the set, do not block the ventilation openings.

• Do not install the TV in a hot or humid place, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical vibration.

• After transporting the 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 TV. Let the moisture evaporate before using the TV.

Maintenance

• Save the original shipping carton and packing material to use if you ever have to ship your TV. For maximum protection, repack your TV as it was originally packed at the factory.

• To keep the cabinet looking brand-new, periodically clean it with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth slightly dampened with a mild detergent solution. Never use strong solvents such as thinner or benzene, or abrasive cleaners since these will damage the cabinet. As a safety precaution, unplug the TV before cleaning it.

• To remove dust from the front of the screen, unplug the TV and wipe gently with a soft cloth lightly dampened with water or a mild detergent solution, using vertical strokes only. Then wipe it with a dry, soft cloth. Never use solvents or thinners for cleaning purposes.

• If the picture turns dark after the TV has been in use for a long period of time, it may be necessary to clean the inside of the TV. Consult qualified service personnel for this.
