68/EEC.

 Ensure you select the correct voltage setting

for your convenience.

To prevent fire or electrical shock, do not use the TV set in

an excessively damp place.

Position the TV set out of direct sunlight and away from heat,

as high temperatures can damage the cabinet, CRT, or other

electronic parts.

Do not cover ventilation slots

 with objects such as newspa-

pers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.
Do not cover the ventilation holes at the back of the TV set,

this can cause fire or other serious problems. Leave an ade-

quate open space behind the TV set for good ventilation.

In order to ensure that the television is properly ventilated,

leave a space of at least 10 cm around the set.
Do not install this equipment in a confined space such as a

bookcase or a built-in cabinet.

Television equipment and cart combination should be moved

with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces

may cause the equipment and cart combination to overturn.

To prevent electrical shock, do not subject the AC power cord

to  damage  by  bending  or  twisting  it,  or  by  placing  heavy

items on top of it and do not place the AC power cord under

the TV set. If the AC power cord becomes damaged, unplug

it from the wall  outlet  immediately  and  call  your  dealer  for

service.

Do not place this television equipment on an unstable cart,

stand, or table. The television equipment may fall, causing

serious injury to a child or an adult, and serious damage to

the equipment.
Use only with a cart or stand recommended by the manufac-

turer, or sold with the television equipment.

Never remove the back of the cabinet, as there is high volt-

age in the TV set.
Please call for service.
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service

technician has used replacement parts which are specified

by the manufacturer or have the same specifications as the

original  one.  Unauthorized  substitutions  may  result  in  fire,

electrical shock, or other hazards.

CAUTION: 

For environmental and safety reasons, it is recommended that this television set is not left in stand-by

                 mode  whilst not in use. Switch it off using the main switch. During periods of absence from home it is also
                 wise  to disconnect the set by unplugging the mains plug.

Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet immediately if the

TV set begins to make unusual noises or give off smoke or

an odd smell, then call your dealer for service.

Always  disconnect  your  television  from  the mains  and  the

aerial cables during thunderstorms.
Even if your television is switched off, it can still be damaged

by lightning striking the mains and/or aerial cable.

Do not leave your TV set in Stand-by or operating mode when

you leave the house.

In order to prevent electrical shocks and fires, ensure that

the television is not subjected to splashes or spills of water,

and avoid inserting objects or pouring any type of liquid into

the set.
To  prevent  fire,  never  place  any  type  of  candle  or  naked

flames on the top or near the TV set.

If  an  object  or  liquid  enters  the  set,  disconnect  the  mains

supply and contact technical service.

Wall or shelf mounting should follow the manufacturer’s in-

structions, and should use a mounting kit approved by the

manufacturer.

Do place the TV set onto an even stand, table or track which

size is bigger than the TV set.
If the TV set is put onto a smaller size or uneven stand, table

or track may cause the TV cabinet distort. Do not put or in-

sert anything between TV set and the stand, table or track.

The tube of your TV has a special coating. Do not knock or

rub on the tube face with sharp or hard surfaces, otherwise

you will damage the coating.
To prevent damaging the surface of the television screen, re-

move finger prints only with a soft cloth dampened with glass
cleaner. Do not use any abrasive cleaners.
Do not use thinner, benzene or other strong chemical clean-

ers.

Warning!
Any intervention contrary to regulations, in particular,
any modification of high voltage or a replacement of the
picture tube may lead to an increased concentration of
x-rays. Any television modified in this way no longer
complies with license and must not be operated.
Instructions for waste disposal:
Packaging and packaging aids are recyclable and
should principally be recycled. Packaging materials,
such  as foil bag, must be kept away from children.
Batteries, including those which are heavy
metal-free, should not be disposed of with household
waste. Please dispose of used batteries in an environ

mentally sound manner. Find out about the legal regulat-

ions which apply in your area.
