IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Safety
Ensure that your domestic mains supply voltage matches the voltage indicated on the
identification sticker located at the back of your set.
The TV set's components are sensitive to heat.The maximum ambient temperature
should not exceed 35° Celsius. Do not cover the vents at the back or sides of the TV
set. Leave sufficient space around it to allow adequate ventilation. Install the
appliance away from any source of heat (fireplace, ...) or appliances creating strong
magnetic or electric fields.
Moisture in rooms where the set is installed should not exceed 85% humidity. If you
have to use the TV set outdoors, do not expose it to rain or splashing water.
Moving the set from a cold place to a warm one can cause condensation on the screen
(and on some components inside the TV set). Let the condensation evaporate before
switching the TV set on again.
If you intend to be away for a long period, unplug the mains plug. Even when off,
some components remain in contact with the mains electricity supply.To completely
isolate the set you must remove the plug from the mains supply socket.
During thunderstorms, we recommend that you disconnect the TV set from the
mains and aerial so that it is not affected by electrical or electromagnetic surges that
could damage it. For this reason, keep the mains and aerial sockets accessible so
they can be disconnected, if necessary.
Unplug the TV set immediately if you notice it giving off a smell of burning or
smoke.You must never, under any circumstances, open the TV set yourself, as you
run the risk of an electric shock in doing so.
LCD panel
The LCD panel used in this product is made of glass.Therefore, it can break when the
product is dropped or impacted upon by other objects.
The LCD panel is a very high technology product, giving you finely detailed pictures.
Occasionally, a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed point of
blue, green or red.This does not affect the performance of your product.
In order to ensure long performance of your set and reduce the risk of screen burning,
please observe the following precautions.
- Do not display still images (still computer and video game images, logos, pictures,
text and images displayed in 4:3) for extended periods of time;
- Use a screen saver when using a computer;

Care
Use a glass-cleaning product to clean the screen and a soft cloth and mild detergent to
clean the rest of the set.
Important: Using strong detergents, alcohol-based and abrasive products may
damage the screen.
Dust the vents at the back and sides regularly. Using solvents, abrasive or alcohol-
based products could damage the TV set.
Never open the appliance yourself since this may put you at risk or damage the
appliance.

SWITCHING ON
Follow the instructions on this page on how to switch on your TV set and the remote
control before going on to following pages describing how to use the remote control
and the channel set-up procedure.
1. Place the TV on a solid surface.
2. Insert the aerial plug firmly into the aerial socket ANT at the back of the TV.
The aerial socket (75 Ohms - VHF / UHF / cable) can be used for connecting an
external aerial or other equipment fitted with a modulator (video recorder, satellite
receiver, etc.).
We recommend that you do not connect other equipment (video recorder, satellite
receiver, etc.) to your TV set to begin with, so as not to complicate the set-up
procedure with the additional steps involved. Connect them when you have finished
setting up the channels by referring to page 15 of this manual.
