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
35 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.

The or POWER/ button on the TV set 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.

LCD panel

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

The LCD panel is a very high technology product,
giving you finely detailed pictures. Occasionally, a
few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as

Please, dispose of this equipment at your local com­munity waste collection/recycling centre. In the
European Union there are separate collection systems
for used electrical and electronic product. Please, help
us to conserve the environment we live in!

This product is designed and manufactured
with high quality materials and components
which can be recycled and reused.
This symbol means that electrical and elec­tronic equipment, at their end-of-life, should
be disposed of separately from your house­hold waste.

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 authorised 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.

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.

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.
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.
