Information & specification
Your TV is supplied with
an approved 13 amp
fused mains plug. When
replacing the fuse always
use a 5 amp (BS 1362)
approved type.
To obtain a replacement
fuse contact your store.
Never use this plug if the
fuse cover is missing. To
obtain a replacement
fuse cover contact your
store.
If the mains sockets in
your home differ or are
not suitable for the type
of plug supplied, then the
plug should be cut from
the mains lead and a
suitable type fitted. You
must use a 13 amp plug
(BS 1363) and fit a 5
amp fuse (BS 1362). If
any other type of plug is
used a 5 amp fuse must
be fitted, either in the
plug, adaptor or at the
distribution board.
Damage
Never use your TV if it is damaged in
any way. Always place your TV on a
flat level surface avoiding anywhere
which may be subject to strong
vibration.
Weather
It is advisable to unplug the aerial
during an electrical storm.
Moisture
Do not allow your TV to be exposed
to rain, moisture or dust. If any liquid
is spilt into your TV it can cause
serious damage. If you spill any liquid
into your TV, switch it off at the mains
immediately. Contact your store.
Interference
Do not place your TV on or near
appliances which may cause
electromagnetic interference (TV or Hi-
Fi speakers). If you do, it may
adversely affect the working of the
unit, causing erratic playback,
distorted picture or sound.
Temperature
Avoid extremes of temperature, either
hot or cold, place your TV well away
from heat sources such as radiators or
gas/electric fires.
Ventilation
The TV must be well ventilated. Do not
cover your TV or place inside a small
confined space. It is recommended
that you leave a 10cm gap all around
your TV.
Batteries
Batteries are easily swallowed by
young children. Do not allow young
children to play with the remote
control unit.
Covers
Do not remove any fixed covers as
this may expose dangerous voltages.
Standby
The standby button on the remote
control doesn't switch off the TV
completely and the TV will continue to
draw electricity from the mains supply.
Therefore in the interests of safety and
to avoid unnecessary energy
consumption, never leave your TV in
standby while unattended for long
periods of time, eg. overnight, while
on holiday or while out of the house.
Naked Flames
Naked flames such as candles and
night lights should not be placed on
or near your TV.
Ornaments
Vases and other water containers or
lamps should not be put on top of
your TV set.
Power Cord
Make sure your TV or TV stand is not
resting on top of the power cord, as
the weight of the TV may damage the
cord and create a safety hazard.
Packaging
If you can store the packaging it will
prove useful should you need to
transport the TV to protect it while it is
in transit. Try to reuse packaging
wherever you can. If you cannot store
it, contact your local authority for
details of your nearest recycling
facilities.
