product.
• This panel is an advanced product that contains millions of pixels.
You may see tiny black dots and/or brightly coloured dots (red, blue
or green) at a size of 1ppm on the panel. This does not indicate a
malfunction and does not aect the performance and reliability
of the product.
This phenomenon also occurs in third-party products and is not
subject to exchange or refund.
• You may nd dierent brightness and color of the panel depending
on your viewing position(left/right/top/down).

image sticking. Avoid displaying a xed image on theTV screen for
a long period of time.
Generated Sound
• “Cracking”noise: A cracking noise that occurs when watching or
turning o theTV is generated by plastic thermal contraction due
to temperature and humidity.This noise is common for products
where thermal deformation is required.
• Electrical circuit humming/panel buzzing: A low level noise is
generated from a high-speed switching circuit, which supplies a
large amount of current to operate a product. It varies depending
on the product.
This generated sound does not aect the performance and
reliability of the product.

HALTEN SIE KERZEN UND OFFENES FEUER STETSVOM
GERÄT FERN, UM BRÄNDE ZU VERMEIDEN.
• Stellen Sie dasTV-Gerät mit Fernsteuerung nicht in folgenden
Umgebungen auf:
-Unter direkter Sonneneinstrahlung
-In Bereichen mit hoher Luftfeuchtigkeit, wie z.B. einem
Badezimmer
-In der Nähe von Hitzequellen, wie z.B. Öfen und anderen
hitzeerzeugenden Geräten
-In der Nähe von Küchenzeilen oder Befeuchtern, wo das Gerät
leicht Dampf oder Öl ausgesetzt sein kann
-In Bereichen, die Regen oderWind ausgesetzt sind
-In der Nähe von Behältern mitWasser, wie z.B. Vasen
Andernfalls kann es zu Bränden, Stromschlägen, Fehlfunktionen
oder Produktverformungen kommen.
• Schützen Sie das Gerät vor Staub. Es besteht Brandgefahr.
• Wenn Sie das Gerät vom Stromnetz trennen möchten, müssen Sie
den Netzstecker aus der Steckdose ziehen. Dieser Stecker muss
jederzeit gut zugänglich sein.
• Berühren Sie den Netzstecker nicht mit nassen Händen.Wenn
die Kontaktstifte nass oder verstaubt sind, trocknen Sie den
Netzstecker vollständig ab, bzw. befreien Sie ihn von Staub.
Feuchtigkeit erhöht die Gefahr eines tödlichen Stromschlags.
• Stellen Sie sicher, dass das Stromkabel geerdet ist. (Außer bei
Geräten, die nicht geerdet sind.) Bei Nichtbeachtung besteht die
Gefahr vonVerletzungen oder eines tödlichen Stromschlags.
• Das Stromkabel muss vollständig in die Steckdose eingesteckt
werden, andersnfalls wenn das Stromkabel nicht fest in der
Steckdose eingesteckt ist, besteht Brandgefahr.
• Das Stromkabel darf nicht mit heißen Gegenständen wie
einem Heizkörper in Berührung kommen. Andernfalls bestehen
Brandgefahr und die Gefahr von Stromschlägen.
• Stellen Sie keinen schweren Gegenstand oder das Gerät selbst
auf das Stromkabel. Andernfalls kann es zu Bränden und
Stromschlägen kommen.
• Platzieren Sie das Antennenkabel zwischen dem Innen- und
Außenbereich des Gebäudes so, dass kein Regen hereinießen
kann. EtwaigerWassereintritt kann zu Schäden am Gerät und
Stromschlag führen.
• Falls das TV-Gerät an derWand montiert wird, darf es nicht an
den Strom- und Signalkabeln auf der Rückseite desTV-Gerätes
aufgehängt werden, anderenfalls besteht die Gefahr von Bränden
oder Stromschlägen.
• Schließen Sie nicht zu viele Elektrogeräte an einer einzelnen
Steckdose an. Andernfalls kann es aufgrund von Überhitzung zu
Bränden kommen.
• Lassen Sie das Gerät beim Anschluss eines externen Gerätes nicht
fallen. Andernfalls könnenVerletzungen verursacht oder das Gerät
beschädigt werden.
• Bewahren Sie dasTrockengranulat und die Vinyl-Verpackung
außerhalb der Reichweite von Kindern auf.Trockengranulat ist bei
Verschlucken gesundheitsschädlich. Falls es verschluckt wurde,
Erbrechen herbeiführen und die Person ins nächste Krankenhaus
bringen. Außerdem besteht Erstickungsgefahr durch die Vinyl-
Verpackung. Bewahren Sie sie außerhalb der Reichweite von
Kindern auf.
• Achten Sie darauf, dass sich Kinder nicht an dasTV-Gerät hängen
oder daran hochklettern.
Andernfalls kann das Gerät umfallen, wodurch schwere
Verletzungen hervorgerufen werden können.
• Leere Batterien müssen sicher entsorgt werden, um zu verhindern,
dass Kinder sie verschlucken.Wenn ein Kind eine Batterie
verschluckt hat, sofort den Arzt aufsuchen.
• Stecken Sie keine Metallgegenstände oder Leiter (wie
Metallstäbchen/Besteck/Schraubenzieher) in das Ende des
Netzkabels, während der Netzstecker an eine Steckdose
angeschlossen ist. Außerdem sollten Sie den Netzstecker nicht
unmittelbar berühren, sobald Sie ihn aus der Steckdose gezogen
haben. Es besteht die Gefahr eines tödlichen Stromschlags.
• Bringen Sie keine entammbaren Stoe in die Nähe des Gerätes.
Bei unsachgemäßem Umgang mit entammbaren Stoen besteht
Explosionsgefahr.
