We have designed and made this television to meet UK safety standards. But like with any television, you must
take care to get the best results. Here are a few tips to help you do this.
Position
Put your television away from radiators and other sources of heat, in a place where light does not shine directly
on the screen. Do not put objects which have magnets in them next to the television unless the instructions with
those objects say they can be used next to a television.
Ventilation
Put the television on a hard, flat surface where curtains and furniture cannot stop air flowing through the
ventilation slots. If the television is in a cabinet, allow a gap of at least 10 centimetres all around.
Water and moistur
e
Do not use the television near water, for example near a bath, wash bowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, swimming
pool, in a wet basement or in any damp environment. Do not put liquids, including flower vases on top of the
television.
Fitting the stand (if one is pr
ovided)
Only use the stand that is provided for the television, and make sure that the fixings are tightened properly.
A diagram showing how to assemble the stand is packed with it. Never use a make-shift stand or legs fixed
with wooden screws.

detergents as these may damage the cabinet finish.

temperature and places which have strong sunlight or are dusty.
