appliance is intended solely for private domestic use
and may not be used for industrial and commercial

Safety Precautions
Read the following recommended safety
precautions carefully.
Power Source
The TV set should be operated only from a 220-240V
AC, 50 Hz outlet. Ensure that you select the correct
voltage setting for your convenience.
Power Cord
Do not place the set, a piece of furniture, etc. on the
power cord or pinch the cord. Handle the power cord
by the plug. Do not unplug the appliance by pulling from
the power cord and never touch the power cord with wet
hands as this could cause a short circuit or electric shock.
Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cords.
The power cord should be placed in such a way that they
are not likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord
can cause fire or give you an electric shock. When it is
damaged and needs to be replaced, it should be done
by qualified personnel.
Moisture and Water
Do not use this device in a humid and
damp place (avoid the bathroom, the
sink in the kitchen etc). Do not expose
this device to rain or water, as this may
be dangerous and do not place objects
filled with liquids, such as flower vases,
on top.
If any solid object or liquid falls into the cabinet, unplug
the TV and have it checked by qualified personnel
before operating it any further.
Cleaning
Before cleaning, unplug the TV set
from the wall outlet. Do not use liquid or
aerosol cleaners. Use a soft, dry cloth.
Ventilation
The slots and openings on the TV set
are intended for ventilation and to ensure reliable
operation. To prevent overheating, these openings
must not be blocked or covered in anyway.
Heat and Flames
The set should not be placed near to
open flames or sources of intense heat
such as an electric heater. Ensure that
no open flame sources, such as candles,
are placed on top of the TV. Batteries should not be
exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or
the like.
Lightning
In case of storm and lightning or when
going on holiday, disconnect the power
cord from the wall outlet.
Replacement Parts
When replacement parts are required, make sure that
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.
Servicing
Please refer all servicing to qualified
personnel. Do not remove the cover
yourself as this may result in an electric
shock.

Dolby Laboratories.
Licence Notification (Optional)
Manufactured under license from Dolby
Laboratories.
Electrical devices not in the hands of children
Never let children use electrical devices unsupervised.
Children cannot always recognize properly any
possible danger. Batteries / accumulators can be life
threatening when swallowed. Store batteries out of
the reach of small children. In case of swallowing a
battery, medical aid has to be sought immediately.
Also keep the packaging away from children as there
is danger of suffocation.
The Standby button does not fully switch off this
product. Moreover, the device continues to consume
power in standby mode. In order to separate the
device completely from mains, the mains plug has to
be pulled from the mains socket. Because of that the
device should be set up in a way, that an unobstructed
access to the mains socket is guaranteed, so that
in case of emergency the mains plug can be pulled
immediately. During periods of prolonged non-use,
the TV should be disconnected from the mains power
supply.
• Batteries, including those which are heavy metal-
free, should not be disposed of with household
waste. Please dispose of used batteries in an
environmentally friendly manner. Find out about the
legal regulations which apply in your area.
Do not try to recharge batteries, there is a danger•
of explosion. Replace batteries only with the same
or equivalent type.
Information for users in the EU
This symbol on the product or on its packaging means
that your electrical device should be
disposed at the end of its service life
separately from your household wastes.
There are separate collection systems for
recycling in the EU. For more information,
please contact the local authority or the
dealer where you purchased the
product.
Disconnecting the Device
The mains plug is used to disconnect the TV set
from the mains and therefore it must remain readily
operable.
Headphone Volume
Excessive sound pressure from earphones
and headphones can cause hearing loss.
Installation
To prevent injury, this device must be securely
attached to the wall in accordance with the installation
instructions when mounted to the wall (if the option
is available).
LCD Screen
The LCD panel is a very high technology product with
about a million thin film transistors, giving you fine
picture details. Occasionally, a few non-active pixels
may appear on the screen as a fixed blue, green or
red point. Please note that this does not affect the
performance of your product.
Warning! Do not leave your TV in standby or operating
mode when you leave your house.
Connection to a Television Distribution
System (Cable TV etc.) from Tuner
Devices connected to the protective earthing of the
building installation through the mains connection or
through other apparatus with a connection to protective
earthing-and to a television distribution system using
a coaxial cable, may in some circumstances create
a fire hazard.
Connection to a cable distribution system has
therefore to be provided through a device providing
electrical isolation below a certain frequency range
(galvanic isolator, see EN 60728-11).
