OPERATING YOUR TV
Do’s and Don’ts
DO’s
This Television 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.
DO read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the
equipment.
DO consult your dealer if you are in any doubt about installation,
operation or safety of your equipment.
DO be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.
This TV is supplied with a fitted mains plug. This plug must not
be cut off as it may contain a special radio interference filter, the
removal of which could lead to impaired performance. If you
wish to extend the lead, obtain an appropriate safety approved
extension lead or consult your dealer.
Observe the manufacturers instructions when connecting ex-
tension leads to the TV. Check the fuse rating on the new plug,
this should be fitted with a 5 Amp fuse which conforms to either
ASTA or BSI (BS1 362) approvals, these are easily identifiable
by either the
or symbols. If you are in any doubt about
the installation of an extension lead, please consult a compe-
tent electrician.

doubt about it working normally, or if it is damaged in any way
switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.
DON’T place water filled vessels on top of T.V. cabinets.

voltages.
DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended

operation or has a stand-by mode. Switch off using the switch
on the equipment and make sure your family know how to do
