is designed for unattended operation or has a

stand-by mode. Switch off using the switch on

the equipment and make sure your family know

how to do this. Special arrangements may need

to be made for infirm or handicapped people.

DONT use equipment such as personal stereos

or radios so that you are distracted from the re-

quirements of traffic safety. It is illegal to watch

television whilst driving.

DONT obstruct the ventilation of the equipment,

for example with curtains or soft furnishings.

Overheating will cause damage and shorten the

life of the equipment.

DONT use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs

or stands to the TV with any screws other than

those provided - to ensure complete safety al-

ways use the manufacturers approved stand

with the fixings provided.

DONT allow electrical equipment to be exposed

to rain or moisture.

ABOVE ALL

 NEVER let anyone, especially children push

anything into holes, slots or any other

opening in the case - this could result in a

fatal electric shock.

 NEVER guess or take chances with

electrical equipment of any kind - it is better

Safety Precautions

Please read the following recommended safety

precautions carefully for your safety.

IMPORTANT SAFETY

INFORMATION ON OPERATING

YOUR TV

Dos and Donts

DOs

This Television has been designed and manu-

factured to meet international safety standards,

but like any electrical equipment, care must be

taken if you are to obtain the best results and

safety is to be assured.

DO read the operating instructions before you

attempt to use the equipment.

DO consult your dealer if you are in any doubt

about installation, operation or safety of your

equipment.

DO be careful with glass panels or doors on

equipment.

This TV is supplied with a fitted mains plug. This

plug must not be cut off as it may contain a spe-

cial radio interference filter, the removal

of which could lead to impaired performance. If

you wish to extend the lead, obtain an appropri-

ate safety approved extension lead or consult

your dealer.

Observe the manufacturers instructions when

connecting extension leads to the TV. Check the

fuse rating on the new plug, this should be fitted

with a 5 Amp fuse which conforms to either ASTA

or BSI (BS1 362) approvals, these are easily

identifiable by either the

or symbols. If

you are in any doubt about the installation of an

extension lead, please consult a competent

electrician.

Be sure to ground the connection properly.

Connect the ground terminal of TV with the ground terminal provided at the

power outlet using the enclosed power cord. If theprovided plug does not fit

your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

the power cord (mains lead) 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 cords 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.

unplug the TV and have it checked by qualified

personnel before operating it any further.

Before cleaning, unplug the TV set from the wall

outlet. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.

Use soft and dry cloth.

flames and sources of intense heat such as an

electric heater. Ensure that no open flame

sources, such as lighted 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

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.
