To prevent fire or electrical shock, do not use the TV set in an
excessively damp place.
Position the TV set out of direct sunlight and away from heat,
as high temperatures can damage the cabinet, RT, or other
electronic parts.
Do not cover ventilation slots with objects such as newspa-
pers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.
Do not cover the ventilation holes at the back of the TV set,
this can cause fire or other serious problems. Leave an ade-
quate open space behind the TV set for good ventilation.
In order to ensure that the television is properly ventilated,
leave a space of at least 10 cm around the set.
Do not install this equipment in a confined space such as a book-
case or a built-in cabinet.
Television equipment and cart combination should be moved
with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces
may cause the equipment and cart combination to overturn.
To prevent electrical shock, do not subject the A power cord
to damage by bending or twisting it, or by placing heavy items
on top of it and do not place the A power cord under the TV
set. If the A power cord becomes damaged, unplug it from
the wall outlet immediately and call your dealer for service.
Do not place this television equipment on an unstable cart,
stand, or table. The television equipment may fall, causing
serious injury to a child or an adult, and serious damage to
the equipment.
Use only with a cart or stand recommended by the manufac-
turer, or sold with the television equipment.
Never remove the back of the cabinet, as there is high volt-
age in the TV set.
Please call for service.
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service
technician has used replacement parts which are specified
by the manufacturer or have the same specifications as the
original one. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire,
electrical shock, or other hazards.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet immediately if the
TV set begins to make unusual noises or give off smoke or
an odd smell, then call your dealer for service.
Always disconnect your television from the mains and the
aerial cables during thunderstorms.
Even if your television is switched off, it can still be damaged
by lightning striking the mains and/or aerial cable.
Do not leave your TV set in Stand-by or operating mode when
you leave the house.

- 3 -
In order to prevent electrical shocks and fires, ensure that the
television is not subjected to splashes or spills of water, and
avoid inserting objects or pouring any type of liquid into the
set.
To prevent fire, never place any type of candle or naked
flames on the top or near the TV set.
If an object or liquid enters the set, disconnect the mains
supply and contact technical service.
Wall or shelf mounting should follow the manufacturers in-
structions, and should use a mounting kit approved by the
manufacturer.
Do place the TV set onto an even stand, table or track which
size is bigger than the TV set.
If the TV set is put onto a smaller size or uneven stand, table
or track may cause the TV cabinet distort. Do not put or in-
sert anything between TV set and the stand, table or track.
The tube of your TV has a special coating. Do not knock or
rub on the tube face with sharp or hard surfaces, otherwise
you will damage the coating.
To prevent damaging the surface of the television screen, re-
move finger prints only with a soft cloth dampened with glass
cleaner. Do not use any abrasive cleaners.
Do not use thinner, benzene or other strong chemical clean-
ers.
Warning!
Any intervention contrary to regulations, in particular, any
modification of high voltage or a replacement of the pic-
ture tube may lead to an increased concentration of
x-rays. Any television modified in this way no longer com-
plies with license and must not be operated.

Packaging and packaging aids are recyclable and should
principally be recycled. Packaging materials, such as foil
bag, must be kept away from children.Batteries, including
tho se which are heavy metal-free, should not be dis-
posed of with household waste. Please dispose of used
batteries in an environmentally sound manner.

by mode whilst not in use. Switch it off using the main switch. During periods of absence from home
