SET-UP AND SAFETY___________________________
Please note the following information when setting up your television set.
This television set is designed to receive and display video and audio
signals.
Any other use is expressly prohibited.
The ideal viewing distance is 5 times the screen diagonal.
External light falling on the screen impairs picture quality.
Ensure sufficient clearance between the TV and the wall cabinet.
The television set is designed for use in dry rooms. If you do use it in the
open, please ensure that it is protected from moisture, such as rain or
splashing water. Do not expose the television set to any moisture.
Do not place any vessels such as vases on the television, as they may
spill liquid, thus presenting a safety risk.
Place the television set on a solid, level surface. Do not place any
objects such as newspapers on the television set or cloth or similar items
beneath it.
Do not place the television set close to heating units or in direct sunlight,
as this will impair cooling.
Heat build-up can be dangerous and shortens the operating life of the
television set. For reasons of safety, have a specialist remove any dirt
deposits in the set from time to time.
Do not open the television set under any circumstances. Warranty
claims are excluded for damage resulting from improper handling.
Ensure that the mains cable and the mains adapter are not damaged.
The television set may only be operated with the mains cable/adapter
supplied.
Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical devices. Even if the tele-
vision set is switched off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to the
mains or the antenna cable. Always disconnect the mains and antenna
plugs during a storm.
Clean the screen with a soft, damp cloth. Only use plain water.
Note:
Do not connect any other equipment while the device is switched on.
Switch off the other equipment as well before connecting it.
Only plug the device into the mains socket after you have connected the
external devices and the antenna.

Please note when deciding where to put the device that furniture
surfaces are covered by various types of lacquer and plastic, most
of which contain chemical additives. These may cause corrosion to
the feet of the device, thus resulting in stains on the surface of the
furniture which can be difficult or impossible to remove.
The screen of your LCD television meets the highest quality
standards and has been checked for pixel faults.
Despite the great care taken in manufacturing, technological
reasons make it impossible to completely discount the possibility that
some pixels may be faulty.
Provided they are within the thresholds specified by the DIN norm,
pixel faults of this kind cannot be regarded as a defect as defined
by the warranty.
