Getting started

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

EN

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.

 

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, switch the TV

 

set off at the on/off switch A. 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 burning smell 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.

Your TV set includes a high-performance electronic protection system to prevent damage by external influences, such as ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) or pollution on the mains power supply (Mains Transients). In the event of such external pollution, your TV set may shut down automatically, and you may need to switch it back on again using the remote control or the on/off switch A located under the front panel.

Work carried out by unqualified persons or modifications to the high voltage may cause hazard. A set modified in this way no longer meets the original specifications and should not be switched on again.

THOMSON disclaims any liability if the TV set is not used in accordance with this manual.

Care

Use a glass-cleaning product to clean the screen and a soft cloth and mild detergent to clean the rest of the set.

Dust the vents at the back and sides regularly. Using solvents, abrasive or alcohol-based products could damage the TV set.
