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•
not 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 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.
Safety
Always disconnect the unit from the mains supply•
before connecting/disconnecting other devices or
moving the unit.
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 (the unit or
Hi-Fi speakers). If you do, it may adversely affect the
working 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 LCD 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/DVD Menus: e.g. Listings of DVD disk content.
6. Pause Mode: Do not leave the screen in pause
mode for long periods of time, e.g. When watching
DVDs or 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.
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. Switch
it off and 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.
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.
DVD

This unit utilises a laser. Use
of controls, adjustments or
performance of procedures other
than those specified herein may
result in hazardous radiation
exposure.
Before moving the unit, ensure the disc tray is empty.•
Always remove the disc when the unit is not in use.•
Failure to do so will risk severely damaging the disc•
and the unit.
Do not stack devices, heat from other devices may•
aect the performance of the unit.

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

triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
