Switch off the mains power or pull out the mains plug when you leave the television unattended, unless the
function of the television requires a continuous power supply.
Do not continue to use your television if you have spilt liquids in it, if it is damaged in any way or if it does not
work normally. Immediately unplug the television and get expert advice.
