Safety Information
Additional Safety Information
• After transporting the projection TV directly from a cold to a warm location, or if the room temperature has changed suddenly,
pictures may be blurred or show poor colour over portions of the picture. This is because moisture has condensed on the mirrors
or lenses inside the projection TV. Let the moisture evaporate before using the projection TV.
• To obtain a clear picture, do not expose the screen to direct illumination or direct sunlight. If possible, use spot lighting directed
down from the ceiling.
• Displaying a still picture for long periods of time, for instance, when operating a video game or personal computer and viewing a
programme in 16:9 mode, may damage the picture tube. To avoid this, keep the picture contrast level low.
• Avoid touching the screen, and take care not to scratch the surface with hard objects.
Do not open the cabinet and the rear
cover of the TV. Refer to qualified
service personnel only.
To prevent fire or shock hazard,
do not expose the TV to rain or
moisture.
For your own safety, do not touch
any part of the TV, power lead or
aerial lead during lightning storms.

ventilation openings of the TV For
ventilation, leave a space of at least
10cm all around the set.

reasons, it is recommended that the

when not in use. Disconnect from
the mains.
