Safety and Precautions
To ensure safe and reliable operation of the TV set ,please observe the following precaution, operation and maintenance.
Attention:
1.Pay attention to the power supply cord before installing
the TV set. Do not hang anything on the cord, and avoid treading on the cord.
2.The slots on the housing back are designed for ventilation to ensure reliable operation of the TV set and prevent
overheating. They must never be covered or blocked. The TV set must not be placed near a heat source or it
might be damaged.
3.The outdoor antenna must not be erected close to HV lines or other power supply lines. Use extreme care when
erecting the antenna and not to touch live wires or injury may occur.
4.This TV set can only use the supply voltage and frequency indicated on the back of the housing. If your power
supply does not comply with them, please consult with the service personnel.

machine via the openings.
6. Do not subject the TV set to rain, or use it in a damp environment. When cleaning dust, be sure to remove the
power supply plug from its socket first. Do not clean the housing directly with liquid detergent, use a damp cloth.
Be sure to remove the power supply plug from its socket and remove the antenna plug during a thunderstorm or
when it will not be used for long time, to avoid components being damaged by lightning.
7. If you use an indoor antenna, do not let it touch any electrical appliance, or normal reception of TV programs
may be affected.
Safety:
1.Do not remove the back of the housing by yourself, as high voltages inside the unit are dangerous. If it is
necessary to open the back, ask a technician with specialized service experience.
2.Remove the power supply plug from its socket in case of the following conditions, and consult with service
personnel.
(1)The power cord or plug are damaged or shows cracking.
(2)Any object has fallen into or liquid flown into the TV set.

Installation
1.First read carefully the relevant instructions in Safety and precautions .
2.Place the TV set in a room where there is no direct sunlight on it. Any light reflecting from the screen will cause fatigue
of your eyes.
3.Use gentle indirect lighting for comfortable watching. The best distance of watching is 5~7 times the screen height.
4.Keep a space of 10cm or over between the TV set and wall for good ventilation.
5.Never put the TV set in a place with excessive temperature or moisture, to avoid damage or failure of its components.
A color TV set is likely to be affected by magnetic fields causing color distortion. If the TV set is moved while on, turned
or affected by a magnetic object nearby, turn off the power supply and wait for at least 1 hour before turn it on. That is to
ensure that the automatic demagnetizing circuit will operate eliminating adverse effects of magnetism on color purity.
For good reception use an outdoor antenna. The recommended type and location of antennas varies between different areas.
Notes:
1.Connect the outdoor antenna as shown above.
2.It is suggested to use 75 coaxial cable to eliminate
interference or noise.
3.The cable must not be tied together with supply cords.
