Remote Control (Cont.)

Using the Remote Control

To use the remote control, point it towards the remote sensor at the front of
the TV.

The remote control has a range of up to approximately five metres (5m)
from the TV at an angle of up to 30 degrees each to the right and left of the
sensor. The remote control will not operate if its path is blocked.

NOTES:

• Do not drop, step on or otherwise impact the remote control as this may
damage the parts or lead to a malfunction.

• The operating distance may vary according to the brightness of the room.

• Do not point bright lights at the remote control sensor.

• Do not place objects between the remote control and the remote control
sensor.

• Do not use this remote control while simultaneously operating a remote
control of other devices.

Remote Control Preparation

• Install the batteries in the back of the remote control, ensuring to match up
the polarity markings (+/-).

• The batteries should last for around one year, depending on how often they
are used.

• If the remote control does not work when operated near the TV, replace the
batteries.

NOTE: Remove the batteries if the remote control is not going to be used for
a long time.

Pairing the Remote Control and the Receiver

If you get a new/replacement remote control, you will need to pair it with the
receiver.

1. Press and hold the OK button and the MUTE button for about three

seconds. The remote control light will turn on and then flash quickly, as it
enters pairing mode.

2. Turn on the USB receiver and wait for about three seconds. The

remote control light will turn on and flash three times. Once pairing has
successfully occurred, the remote control light will turn off.

General Safety Instructions (Cont.)

Installation

Follow instructions: Only install this TV set in accordance with the instructions in this

manual.

• This TV is equipped with standard wall-mounting points, and we recommend that

a wall bracket be installed between the TV and the wall to prevent the TV from

falling from a cabinet. (The bracket is not included.)

• When deciding on where to put the TV set, make sure the place is:

• Well ventilated, and away from damp and cold.

• Protected from overheating and away from direct sunlight.

• Away from moisture drips or splashes.

• Protected from excessive dust or grease.

• Bookcase: Do not install this equipment in a confined space such as a bookcase or

• Heat: Do not install the TV set near heat sources such as radiators, stoves or other
audio visual equipment (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

• Water: Do not place containers with liquids (such as vases) or with small metallic
objects on top of the unit. If liquid enters the unit or any metal object falls into the
unit, it may result in short-circuit, fire or electric shock.

• Fire or explosion: Do not use or store flammable or combustible materials near the
unit. Doing so may result in fire or explosion. Do not place any naked flame sources,
such as lit candles, cigarettes or incense sticks on top of the TV set.

communication cables and make sure it is installed securely. If the antenna touches
a power line, contact with the antenna could result in fire, electric shock or serious
injury.
