1 Safety Warnings
• Read all the instructions carefully before using the unit
and keep them for future reference.
• Retain the manual. If you pass the unit onto a third
party make sure to include this manual.
• Check that the voltage marked on the rating label
matches your mains voltage.
Damage
• Please inspect the unit for damage after unpacking.
• Do not continue to operate the unit if you are in any
doubt about it working normally, or if it is damaged
in any way - switch off, withdraw the mains plug and
consult your dealer.
Location of Unit
• The unit must be placed on a flat stable surface and
should not be subjected to vibrations.
• Do not place the unit on sloped or unstable surfaces as
the unit may fall off or tip over.
• The mains socket must be located near the unit and
should be easily accessible.
• This unit is designed for indoor, domestic use only.
Temperature
• Avoid extreme degrees of temperature, either hot or
cold. Place the unit well away from heat sources such
as radiators or gas / electric fires.
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and other sources of
heat.
Naked Flames
• Never place any type of candle or naked flame on the
top of or near the unit.
Moisture
• To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or product
damage, do not expose this unit to rain, moisture,
dripping or splashing. No objects filled with liquids,
such as vases, should be placed on the unit.
• If you spill any liquid into the unit, it can cause serious
damage. Switch it off at the mains immediately.
Withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.
Ventilation
• To prevent the risk of electric shock or fire hazard
due to overheating, ensure that curtains and other
materials do not obstruct the ventilation vents.
• Do not install or place this unit in a bookcase, built-in
cabinet or in another confined space. Ensure the unit is
well ventilated.
• Make sure that there is a gap of at least 10 cm on both
sides and a gap of 20 cm at the top.
• Unplug the unit from the mains socket during a
lightning storm.
Mains Cable
• Make sure the unit or unit stand is not resting on top of
the mains cable, as the weight of the unit may damage
the mains cable and create a safety hazard.
• If the mains cable is damaged it must be replaced
by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Interference
• Do not place the unit on or near appliances which may
cause electromagnetic interference. If you do, it may
adversely affect the operating performance of the unit,
and cause a distorted picture or sound.
Optimum viewing
• View the unit in moderate light to prevent eye strain. It
is recommended to watch the unit from a distance
3-7 times that of the screen height.
LCD screen
• The LCD screen is manufactured using high-precision
technology. However, some tiny black points and /
or bright points (red, blue or green in colour) may
constantly appear on the LCD screen. These points
are generated in the manufacturing process and are
normal.
Screen Burn
• A characteristic of Plasma and TV Panels is that
displaying the same image for a long time may cause
a permanent after-image to remain on the screen. This
is called screen burn. Most pictures shown on the unit
will be constantly moving and fill the screen.
• Examples of images that you need to watch out for are
as follows (this is not an all-inclusive list):
1. Black Bars: If black bars appear at the left / right or
top / bottom of the screen, it is recommended to
change the format so that the picture fills the entire
screen.
2. TV Channel Logos: e.g. Shopping channel logos
and pricing displays - especially if they are bright
and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are
less likely to cause ageing of the screen.
3. Time Displays
4. Teletext: Do not view a stationary page for long
periods of time.
5. TV Menus
6. Pause Mode: Do not leave the screen in pause
mode for long periods of time, e.g. when watching
videos.
• To prevent screen burn if viewing any of the above for
long periods of time, reduce contrast and brightness
when viewing. Once burn-in occurs it will never
disappear completely.
Earphones
• Listening to loud sounds for prolonged periods of time
may permanently damage your hearing.
• Before putting on earphones, turn the volume down
then put the earphones on and slowly increase the
volume until you reach a comfortable listening level.

Safety Warnings

Standby
• The button on the remote control does not switch
off the unit completely. The unit will continue to draw
electricity from the mains supply while in standby. In
the interests of safety and to avoid unnecessary energy
consumption, never leave the unit in standby while
unattended for long periods of time, e.g. overnight,
while on holiday or while out of the house. Disconnect
the mains plug from the mains socket.
Batteries
• Batteries used in the remote control for this unit
are easily swallowed by young children and this is
dangerous.
• Keep loose batteries away from young children and
make sure that the battery holder tray is secure in the
remote control. Seek medical advice if you believe a
cell has been swallowed.
• Please dispose of batteries correctly by following the
guidance in this manual.
• The batteries shall not be exposed to excessive heat
such as sunshine, fire or the like.
Supervision
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do
not play with the unit and the remote control.
• Never let anyone especially children push anything
into the holes, slots or any other openings in the case -
this could result in a fatal electric shock.
CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol,
within an equilateral triangle, is intended to
alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
“dangerous voltage” within the unit’s
enclosure that may be of sufficient
magnitude to constitute a risk of electric
shock.
The exclamation point within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
manual accompanying the unit.
Service
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove
screws. The unit does not contain any user-serviceable
parts. Please leave all maintenance work to qualified
personnel.
• Do not open any fixed covers as this may expose
dangerous voltages.
Maintenance
• Ensure to unplug the unit from the mains socket before
cleaning.
• Do not use any type of abrasive pad or abrasive
cleaning solutions as these may damage the unit’s
surface.
• Do not use liquids to clean the unit.
• The wall socket plug is used as a disconnect device, the
disconnect device should be readily accessible.
• This equipment is a Class II or double insulated
electrical appliance. It has been designed in such
a way that it does not require a safety connection
to electrical earth.
To prevent the spread of
fire, keep candles or other
open flames away from this

2. To install the base stand, align the screw
holes, then secure with a screw driver (not
included) using the 4 screw C provided.
1. Disconnect all cables connected to the TV.
2. Lay the TV down on a flat surface with the back side facing up, and ideally at the edge of a table so that the base of the TV
slightly overhangs on it. Please make sure a soft cushioned material (such as a pillow or thick piece of foam) is placed beneath
the screen.
Installing the Base Stand
1. To install the TV stand, first attach the stand support to the TV
by using 2 screw A and 2 screw B. Align with the screw hole
then use screws to fix the stand support to the TV.
1. To remove the stand assembly, untighten the screws holding the
stand assembly to the rear of the TV. Slide the stand assembly
out.
2. Before mounting on the wall, remove the 4 screws from the
VESA mounting hole pattern. This TV is designed to be wall-
mounted with a standard 200 mm x 200 mm mounting kit (sold
separately) designed for flat-panel TVs. Mount this TV according
to the instructions included in the mounting kit. Due to space
restrictions, we recommend that you make all connections (refer
to page 13-16 and page 48 for details) before mounting on to the
wall.
Installing / Removing the Base Stand
• The LCD display is very fragile, and must be protected at all times when installing and removing the base stand. Be sure
that no hard or sharp object, or anything that could scratch or damage the LCD display, comes into contact with it. DO
NOT exert pressure on the front of the TV at any time because the screen could crack.
• It is recommended that two people take part in the base installation.
Remove the stand assembly before mounting the TV onto the wall.
Keep all the spare screws should you want to use
the stand assembly option.
The screw holes will only align if the
front of the base stand is at the front
of the TV.
• Please read this instruction manual carefully while setting up your TV.
