Important safety instructions
Important information regarding use of
video games, computers, captions and
other fi xed image displays.
The extended use of fi xed image program material can
cause a permanent “shadow image “ on LCD screen (this is
sometimes incorrectly referred to as “burnout to the screen“).
This shadow image is then permanently visible on the
screen in the backro-und. It is a partly irreversible damage.
You can avoid such a damage by respecting the following
instructions:
Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum
viewing level.
Do not display the fi xed image for a long period of time.
Avoid displaying of:
»
Teletext time and charts,
»
TV/DVD menu, e.g. DVD contents,
»
In the „Pause“ mode (hold): Do not use this mode for
a long time, e.g. while watching a DVD or a video.
»
Turn off the appliance if you are not using it.
Batteries

the batteries.

tures and do not place them on locations

quickly, e.g. near the fi re or on the direct
sunshine.
Do not expose batteries to excessive radiant
heat, do not throw them into the fi re, do
not disassemble them and do not try to recharge unrechar-
geable batteries. They could leak out or explode.
»
