For your safety
Energy consumption
Your TV set is equipped with an eco-standby power supply. In the standby
mode, the power consumption drops to low power (see Technical data on
page 67). If you want to save even more energy then switch the device
off with the mains switch. However note that in this case, EPG (Electronic
Programme Guide) data will be lost, and it may be that programmed
timer recordings
cannot
be executed via the TV device.
If you activate the automatic dimming (see page 21), your TV picture will
adapt to the ambient brightness. This reduces the power consumption
of the TV set.
Packaging and box
You have made a decision to purchase a high-quality technical product
with a long service life. For disposal of the packaging, in accordance with
national legislation we have paid a fee to a commissioned recycler to pick
up the packaging from the dealer.
Nevertheless we recommend keeping
the original box and
packaging material
on hand so that the device can
be transported with optimal protection if necessary.
The set
The EU directive 2002/96/EC regulates the proper way
to recycle, handle and utilise used electronic devices.
Old electronic devices
consequently must be disposed of
separately. Please do
not
dispose of this device in normal
household trash
!
You may return your used set free of charge at designated
recycling centres or at your specialist dealer whenever you purchase a
new, comparable set. Additional details about return (also for non EU
countries) are available from your local municipal authorities.
Batteries
The batteries supplied as initial equipment do not contain
any pollutants such as cadmium, lead, or mercury.
Used batteries should
no longer
be disposed of in the
do-
mestic waste
according to the Battery Ordinance. Dispose
of your batteries at no charge in the
collection containers
which are set up for this purpose in retail stores.
Repairs and accessories
Never remove the back of the TV set yourself. Only have your TV device
repaired or serviced by
authorised television technicians
.
Only use
original accessories
such as Loewe stands if possible (see Acces-
sories on pages 68 and 69).
Supervision
Do not allow
children
to use the TV set without supervision or to play in
the immediate vicinity of the TV set. The set could tip over, be pushed
off or pulled down from the stand surface and injure someone.
Do
not
allow the switched-on TV set to run
unattended
.
Volume
Loud music can lead to ear damage. Avoid extreme volume especially
over long periods and when using headphones.
Cleaning
Clean the TV set, the screen, and the remote control unit with a soft,
moist, and clean cloth,only,
without
any
aggressive
or
scouring cleaning
agents.
Thunder storms
Pull out the
mains plug
and all connected
antenna cables
from the TV
set in a thunderstorm. Overvoltage caused by
lightning
can damage the
set via the antenna system, as well as via the mains. The mains plug and
all connected antenna cables should also be pulled out during long pe-
riods of
absence
.
Note on the LCD screen
The TV set you have purchased with LCD screen satisfies the most rigor-
ous quality requirements and has been inspected relative to
pixel errors
.
In spite of the utmost care in manufacturing the display, for technical
reasons the possibility that some
pixels
will have defects cannot be 100%
excluded. Please understand that these types of effects, as long as they
are within the standard of specified limits, cannot be considered as a
device defect in terms of the guarantee.
