Mirror TV Application Note
Release v0.5
2. Safety Precautions And Cleaning Procedures
The safety precautions and cleaning procedures for the Mirror TV are similar to that of the
32”- 42” LCD TV, and can be referenced to the respective sections in the DFU of that
product. Please refer to the DFU (included with your product) for more information.
However, to ensure that the Mirror TV continues to provide excellent and durable
performance, the following safety precautions are strongly advised:
1. Do not shift or move the Mirror TV when it is powered on.
2. Do not touch, push, or rub the surface of the mirror glass with any sharp or hard
objects.
3. For proper ventilation, provide at least 5 cm from the top and bottom of the Mirror TV
back panel to allow for a free flow of air.
4. If the Mirror TV unit is mounted into an enclosed space (for example, in-wall
mounting), it is strongly recommended to provide ventilation slots at the top and
bottom to allow for greater airflow and better ventilation. Without any ventilation
slots, the ambient temperature should not exceed 25 degrees Celsius. It is
recommended to create ventilation slots of
70cm x 2cm
at both the top and bottom of
the wall, which would allow ambient temperatures up to 35 degrees Celsius.
5. Do not place the Mirror TV near a radiator or other sources of heat, or near areas
where it can be exposed to rain. The Mirror TV complies with the general safety
standards of consumer products.
6. It is also advisable not to place the Mirror TV under bright lighting or direct sunlight, as
this could adversely affect the brightness of the LCD display and the overall quality of
the picture.
To ensure that the Mirror TV continues to provide excellent picture and mirror quality, the
following cleaning procedures are suggested:
1. To avoid possible shock hazard, it is advised to power off and unplug the Mirror TV
before cleaning.
2. To clean the surface from dust, wipe it gently with an absorbent cotton cloth or other
soft material (like chamois). Avoid abrasive materials or wearing jeweled adornments
such as bracelets or rings, which may scratch the mirror glass surface. Use even, easy
vertical strokes when cleaning.
3. Do NOT use acetone, toluene, alcohol, or other liquid or aerosol cleaners to clean the
surface of the glass.
4. Wipe off any form of water from the screen as soon as possible. Be careful of
condensation when temperature changes occur, as condensation can cause damage to
the electrical parts and LCD screen.
5. If possible, occasionally vacuum the ventilation holes or slots in the back cover of the
Mirror TV.
