with the manufacturer’s instructions. Switch off

and withdraw the mains plug before making or

changing connections.

DO consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt

about the installation, operation or safety of

your equipment.

DO be careful with glass panels or doors on

equipment.

DO route the mains lead so that it is not likely

to be walked on, crushed, chafed, or subjected

to excessive wear and tear or heat.

**************

DON’T remove any ﬁ xed cover as this may

expose dangerous voltages.

DON’T obstruct the ventilation openings of the

equipment with items such as newspapers,

tablecloths, curtains, etc. Overheating will cause

damage and shorten the life of the equipment.

DON’T allow electrical equipment to be

exposed to dripping or splashing, or objects

ﬁ lled with liquids, such as vases, to be placed

on the equipment.

DON’T place hot objects or naked flame

sources such as lighted candles or nightlights

*************

Power Source

The TV set should be operated only from a 220-

240 V AC, 50 Hz outlet.

Power Cord

Do not place the set, a piece of furniture, etc.

on 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 ﬁ re or give you an electric shock. When it

is damaged and needs to be replaced, it should

be done by qualiﬁ ed personnel.

This TV receiver is supplied with a moulded

mains plug. The mains plug must not be cut off,

as it may contain a special radio interference

ﬁ lter, the removal of which could lead to impaired

performance. If you wish to extend the lead,

obtain an appropriate safety approved extension

lead or consult your dealer.

Observe the manufacturers instructions when

connecting extension leads to the set. Check

the fuse rating on the new plug; this should be

ﬁ tted with a 5 Amp fuse which conforms to either

ASTA or BSI (BS1362) approvals, these are

easily identifiable by either the

ASA

symbols. If you are in any doubt about the

installation of an extension lead, please consult

a competent electrician.
