electrical equipment, care must be taken to obtain the best results and for safety to be assured. Please read
the points below for your own safety. They are of a general nature, intended to help with all electronic
consumer products and some points may not apply to the goods you have just purchased.

DON'T

remove any fixed cover as this may expose

dangerous voltages.

DON'T

obstruct the ventilation openings of the

equipment with items such as newspapers,
tablecloths, curtains, etc. Overheating will cause
damage and shorten the life of the equipment.

DON'T

allow electrical equipment to be exposed to

dripping or splashing or objects filled with liquids,
such as vases, to be placed on the equipment.

DON’T

place hot objects or naked flame sources,

such as lighted candles or nightlights on, or close to
equipment. High temperatures can melt plastic and
lead to fires.

DON'T

use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs

with wood screws. To ensure complete safety,
always fit the manufacturers’ approved stand or
legs with the fixings provided according to the
instructions.

DON'T

listen to headphones at high volume, as

such use can permanently damage your hearing.

leave equipment switched on when it is

unattended, unless it is specifically stated that it is
designed for unattended operation or has a
standby mode. Switch off by withdrawing the plug,
make sure your family know how to do this. Special
arrangements may need to be made for infirm or
handicapped people.

DON'T

are in any doubt about it working normally, or it is
damaged in any way – switch off, withdraw the
mains plug and consult your dealer.

ABOVE ALL

– 

NEVER let anyone, especially

children, push or hit the screen, push 
anything into holes, slots or any other
openings in the case.

NEVER guess or take chances with electrical
equipment of any kind – it is better to be safe
than sorry.

TO FULLY DISCONNECT THE TELEVISION,

REMOVE THE POWER PLUG.

Leave at least 10cm clearance around the television

overheating and possible damage to the television.
Dusty places should also be avoided.

Damage may occur if the television is left in direct
sunlight or near a heater. Avoid places subject to
extremely high temperatures or humidity, or locations
where the temperature is likely to fall below 5°C (41°F).

The mains supply required for this equipment is
110-240v AC 50/60Hz. Never connect to a DC
supply or any other power source. DO ensure that
the television is not standing on the mains lead.
DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this
equipment, this incorporates a special Radio
Interference Filter, the removal of which will impair
its performance. In the UK, the fuse fitted in this
plug is approved by ASTA or BSI to 

BS1362

. It

should only be replaced by a correctly rated and
approved type and the fuse cover must be refitted. 
IF IN DOUBT PLEASE CONSULT A COMPETENT
ELECTRICIAN.
