Important information

Safety

Ensure that your domestic mains supply voltage matches the voltage indicated on the identification sticker located at the back of your set. Where the mains plug or an appliance coupler is used as disconnect device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable.

On certain models, the light indicator is located at the side of the TV set. The absence of a light indication at the front does not mean that the TV set is fully disconnected from the mains. To disconnect the TV set completely, the mains plug must be pulled out.

The TV set’s components are sensitive to heat. The maximum ambient temperature should not exceed

35º Celsius. Do not cover the vents at the back or sides of the TV set. Leave sufficient space around it to allow adequate ventilation. Install the appliance away from any source of heat (fireplace, ...) or

appliances creating strong magnetic or electric fields.

Moisture in rooms where the set is installed should not exceed 85% humidity. Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus. Moving the set from a cold place to a warm one can cause condensation on the screen

(and on some components inside the TV set). Let the condensation evaporate before switching the TV set on again.

WARNING

To prevent the spread of fire, keep candles or other open flames away from this product at all times.

The or POWER/ button on the TV set or the button on the remote control can be used to switch it on and put it into standby mode. If you are not going to be watching the TV for a lengthy period of time, switch it off completely by removing the plug from the mains power socket.

During thunderstorms, we recommend that you disconnect the TV set from the mains and aerial so that it is not affected by electrical or electromagnetic surges that could damage it. For this reason, keep the mains and aerial sockets accessible so they can be disconnected, if necessary.

Unplug the TV set immediately if you notice it giving off a smell of burning or smoke. You must never, under any circumstances, open the TV set yourself, as you run the risk of an electric shock in doing so.

TV screen

The TV screen used in this product is made of glass. Therefore, it can break when the product is dropped or impacted upon by other objects.

The TV screen is a very high technology product, giving you finely detailed pictures. Occasionally, a few nonactive pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green or red. This does not affect the

performance of your product.

Care

Use a glass-cleaning product to clean the screen and a soft cloth and mild detergent to clean the rest of the set.

Important: Using strong detergents, alcohol-based and abrasive products may damage the screen.

Dust the vents at the back and sides regularly. Using solvents, abrasive or alcohol-based products could damage the TV set. If an object or liquid enters inside the appliance, unplug it immediately and have it checked by an authorized engineer. Never open the appliance yourself since this may put you at risk or damage the appliance.

Hanging the TV set on the wall

Warning: This operation requires two people.

To ensure a safe installation, observe the following safety notes:

•• Check that the wall can support the weight of the TV set and wall mount assembly.

•• Follow the mounting instructions provided with the wall mount. For certain models, make sure to screw the hexagonal VESA wall mounting screw bosses

(and screws) provided with the set into the nuts for the wall mount at the back of your set before your wall mounting.

•• The TV set must be installed on a vertical wall.

•• Make sure to use only screws suitable for the material of the wall.

•• Make sure that the TV set cables are placed so that there is not danger of tripping over them.

All other safety instructions about our TV sets are also applicable here.

Handling the TV set on the table

Before setting up your television set, make sure that the surface you want to put the set on can support its weight.

Don’t place the set on an unstable surface (e.g. moving shelf, very edge of a unit) and make sure that the front of the television set does not overhang the surface it is sitting on.
