SAFETY

safety

This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international safety standards but, like any electrical equipment, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be assured. So, please read the points below for your own safety. They are of a general nature, intended to help you with all your electronic consumer products and some points may not apply to the goods you have just purchased.

and “DON’Ts” for you

Air Circulation…

Leave at least 10cm clearance around the television to allow adequate ventilation. This will prevent the TV from overheating and consequential possible damage to the TV. Dusty places should also be avoided.

Heat Damage…

Damage may occur if you leave the TV in direct sunlight or near a heater. Avoid places subject to extremely high temperatures or humidity, or locations where the temperature is likely to fall below 5ºC (41ºF).

Mains Supply…

The mains supply required for this equipment is 230v AC 50Hz. Never connect to a DC supply or any other power source. DO ensure that the TV is not standing on the mains lead. DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment, this incorporates a special Radio Interference Filter, the removal of which will impair its performance. In the UK, the fuse fitted in this plug is 13A, and is approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362. It should only be replaced by a correctly rated and approved type and the fuse cover must be refitted.

IF IN DOUBT PLEASE CONSULT A COMPETENT ELECTRICIAN.

DO…

DO read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment.

DO ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and inter-connections between pieces of equipment) are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturers’ instructions. Switch off and withdraw the mains plug before making or changing connections.

DO consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment.

DO be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.

DO NOT…

DON'T remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages.

DON'T obstruct the ventilation openings of the equipment with items such as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains etc. Overheating will cause damage and shorten the life of the equipment.

DON'T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to dripping or splashing or objects filled with liquids, such as vases, to be placed on the equipment.

place hot objects or naked flame sources, such candles or nightlights on, or close to the

equipment. High temperatures can melt plastic and lead to fires.

DON'T use makeshift stands and NEVERTfix...legs with wood screws. To ensureNOcomplete safety, always fit the manufacturer’s approved stand or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions.

DODON'T listen to headphones at high volume, as such use can permanently damage your hearing.

DON'T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended, unless it is specifically stated that it is designed for unattended operation or has a standby mode. Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure your family know how to do this. Special arrangements may need to be made for infirm or handicapped people.

DON'T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or it is damaged in any way – switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.

ABOVE ALL – NEVER let anyone, especially children, push anything into holes, slots or any other openings in the case – this could result in a fatal electric shock.

NEVER guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind – it is better to be safe than sorry.
