Safety Precautions

This equipment has been designed and manufactured

to meet international safety standards, but like any

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 and are intended to help with all

electronic consumer products. Some points may not

apply to the goods you have just purchased.

Leave more than 10cm clearance around the

television to allow adequate ventilation. This will

prevent 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. Place in a

location where the temperature remains between 5°C

(41°F) min. and 35°C (94°F) max.

The mains supply required for this equipment is 220-

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. Use only the

supplied lead.

DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment.

The plug incorporates a special Radio Interference

Filter, the removal of which will impair its

performance.

In the UK, the fuse fitted in the 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.

DO

read the operating instructions before you

attempt to use the equipment.

DO

ensure that all electrical connections (including

the mains plug, extension leads and inter-connections

between pieces of equipment) 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.

DO

be careful with glass panels or doors on

equipment.

DO NOT

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.

DO NOT

allow electrical equipment to be exposed to

dripping or splashing or objects filled with liquids,

such as vases, to be placed on the equipment.

DO NOT

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.

DO NOT

use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs

with wood screws. To ensure complete safety, always

fit the manufacturers’ approved stand, bracket or legs

with the fixings provided according to the

instructions.

DO NOT

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, and make

sure your family knows how to do this. Special

arrangements may need to be made for people with

disabilities.

DO NOT

continue to operate the equipment if you

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.
WARNING

– excessive sound pressure from

earphones or headphones can cause hearing loss.
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.
