Please note the following instructions when

setting up the television set:

Make sure the power cord or the power sup-

ply unit (if provided) are not damaged.

This television is designed to receive and dis-

Only operate the television with the power

supply/power cord provided.

play video and audio signals.

All other uses are expressly prohibited.

Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical

devices. Even when the television is switched

off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to

the mains or the antenna. Always disconnect

the mains and antenna plugs during a storm.

The ideal viewing distance is five times the

diagonal screen size.

Light falling on the screen impairs picture

quality.

Use a damp, soft cloth to clean the screen.

Do not use water with soap or detergent.

To ensure the device is always adequately

ventilated, make sure there is sufficient space

between the television set and nearby furniture

(min 10 cm).

Only clean the housing of your television set

with the cloth provided. Do not use water with

soap or detergent.

The television is designed for use in dry rooms.

If you do use it outdoors, make sure it is pro-

tected from moisture such as rain or splashing

water.

When deciding where to put the device, re-

member that furniture is often coated with vari-

ous types of varnish and plastic. Many of these

contain chemicals which can corrode the feet

of the device, leaving marks on the surface of

the furniture which can be difficult or impossi-

ble to remove.

Never expose the television set to moisture.

Do not place any vessels such as vases on the

television, as they may spill liquid, thus present-

ing a safety risk.

The screen of your LCD television meets

the highest quality standards and has been

checked for pixel faults.

Despite the great care taken in manufacturing,

technological reasons make it impossible to

completely discount the possibility that some

pixels may be faulty.

Provided they are within the thresholds speci-

fied by the DIN norm, pixel faults of this kind

cannot be regarded as a defect as defined by

the warranty.

Place the television on a hard, level surface.

Do not place any objects such as newspapers

on the television or put cloth or similar items

under it.

Do not place the television close to heating

units or in direct sunlight, as this will impair

cooling.

Heat build-up can be dangerous and shortens

the service life of the television. For reasons of

safety, have a repairman remove any dirt in

the television from time to time.

To ensure fires do not occur,

always keep candles and other

open flames away from the device.

Never open the television under any circum-

stances. Warranty claims are excluded for

damage resulting from improper handling.

ENGLISH

setup-AnD-sAFetY_{-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------}

Do not connect any other equipment while the

device is switched on. Also switch off other

equipment before connecting it.

Do not plug in the power cord of the device

until you have connected the external equip-

ment and the antenna.

To avoid safety problems arising from the bat-

teries used with the product, follow the instruc-

tions below.

In case of misplacement of batteries, they may

cause explosion due to short circuit.

Do not expose the batteries to excessive heat

such as direct sunlight, fire, etc.

Do not use old and unused batteries together.

Only replace the exhausted batteries with

those having the same model, value and prop-

erties.

To avoid environmental health problems aris-

ing from the product, batteries and accesso-

ries.

Make sure the mains plug is freely accessible.

Caution:

If you plan on using a wall bracket for your

television, make sure you read the assembly

manual for the wall bracket or have a spe-

cialist assemble it.

When purchasing the wall bracket, make

sure that all the fastening points on the televi-

sion are also on the wall bracket and that

they are all used when mounting it.

sively.

Your television plays video files in the formats

DIVS, XVID, H.264/MPEG-4 AVC (L4.1, 4 ref-

erence pictures), MPEG-4, MPEG-2, MPEG-1,
