For your safety

This equipment 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. So, please

read the points below for your own safety. They

are of a general nature, intended to help you

with all your electronic consumer products and

some points may not apply to the goods you

have just purchased.

Some “DOs” and “DON’Ts” for you

Air Circulation…

Leave at least 10cm clearance around the

television to allow adequate ventilation. This

will prevent the TV from overheating and con-

sequential possible damage to the TV. Dusty

places should also be avoided.

Heat Damage…

Damage may occur if you leave the TV 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 5ºC (41ºF).

Mains Supply…

The mains supply required for this equipment

is 

230

V AC, 50 Hz.

 Never connect to a DC sup-

ply or any other power source. DO ensure that

the TV is not standing on the mains lead. DO

NOT cut off the mains plug from this equip-

ment, this incorporates a special Radio Inter-

ference Filter, the removal of which will impair

its performance.

IF IN DOUBT PLEASE CONSULT A

COMPETENT ELECTRICIAN.

DO…

DO 

read the operating instructions before you

attempt to use the equipment.

DO 

ensure that all electrical connections (in-

cluding the mains plug, extension leads and

inter-connections between pieces of equip-

ment) are properly made and in accordance

with the manufacturers’ instructions.
Switch off and withdraw the mains plug before

making or changing connections.

DO 

consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt

about the installation, operation or safety of

your equipment.
