Important safety information
This unit has been produced according to all current safety regulations. The following safety tips should
safeguard users against careless use and the dangers connected with such use.
Although this appliance has been carefully manufactured and rigorously checked prior to leaving the
factory, as with all electrical appliances it is possible for problems to develop. If you notice smoke, an
excessive build-up of heat or any other unexpected phenomena, you should disconnect the plug from the
mains power socket immediately.
Ensure that the unit is sufficiently ventilated! Never place next to or underneath curtains!
This set should be only be connected to an AC 220~240V / 50/60Hz mains power supply - do not attempt
to connect it to any other type of supply.
The apparatus must be connected to a main socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.
The socket-outlet must be installed near the equipment and easily accessible.
Any repairs must be carried out by qualified service personnel only.
Do not open this unit. A non-expert attempting to repair the unit could be dangerous and potentially cause
a fire hazard.
Keep away from rodents. Rodents (and also cockatiels) enjoy biting into electric flexes.
The animal can cause a short cut (fire hazard!) and receive a fatal electric shock.
Always hold plug when pulling out plug from power mains supply system. Do not pull on flex. The flex can
become overloaded and cause a short cut.
Never wet clean. Only use a damp cloth, the same as when cleaning furniture.
Do not submerge in or under water!
Set up unit so that no one is able to trip over the flex.
Only use the unit on a stable, shock-free base in order to avoid any danger from falling.
Take note that toddlers can pull the unit down from the table or cupboard by means of its flex. Children
can hurt themselves when doing this.
Do not use the unit near heat sources. The casing and flex could be damaged by the impact of heat.
Watch out for kiddies copying what adults do! Do not stick any objects through the vents!
The vents must remain open! No newspapers or covers should be put on the unit!
The remote control is not a toy! Toddlers could swallow the batteries. If a battery has been swallowed,
please seek out a doctor immediately.
The screen is made of glass and can break if damage is done to it. Be careful when collecting sharp-
edged glass splitters.
You could be hurt or the unit could be damaged.
If the unit is mounted on the wall, contact the shop where you purchased the unit for advice, and leave the
installation work to experts. Incomplete installation work can cause you injuries.
When installing the set on a wall, allow at least 6 cm clearance between the rear of the set and the wall.
Clearance of less than 6 cm will obstruct the vents and cause the interior of the set to overheat, resulting
in faults or damage to the set.
Taking fall-prevention measures
- If these measures are not taken, the unit can fall and you could be injured.
- Contact the shop where you purchased the unit to obtain full details of the measures.
When a TV stand is used,
- Ensure the unit is fully on the stand and placed in the centre.
- Do not leave the stand doors open.
- You could be hurt as a result of the unit falling or breaking, or your fingers being caught or jammed. Take
extra precautions if you have children.
Please pay attention to the following instructions in order to avoid receiving a life-threatening
electric shock:
Protect against moisture. Never use in the bath or sauna.
Never use near a bath, shower or swimming pool.
Never use the unit if it has got wet. This can also mean condensation moisture, which occurs in the winter
when the cold unit is brought into a heated flat. Wait before operating the unit especially after it has been
transported in the winter, until the cold unit has adjusted to the room temperature.
Do not place any heavy objects on the flex. Electrical isolation could be damaged.
Never wrap insulating tape around damaged flexes or on damaged plugs. These should be repaired or
replaced by qualified service personnel.
Never use this unit if the cabinet is defective. Do not make provisional repairs if the cabinet is damaged
- this should be replaced by a new cabinet if necessary.
Unplug the unit from the mains power supply prior to the cleaning of the unit.
