NOTES ON SAFETY
Read this manual and keep it safe
This manual contains important information on how to install and operate the RTX 55TV. Before using the appliance, read the safety notes and the directions, which must be observed conscientiously. Keep this manual safe for future reference.
Entrust servicing and repairs to specialist technicians. Have all repair work done by authorised service technicians only. The involvement of a technician will be required if the appliance has suffered damage of any kind, for example if the
power cable or the plug has been damaged, if liquids or solid objects have spilled over or fallen onto the cabinet, or if the appliance has been exposed to rain or damp, or dropped, or is simply not working as it should.
Connect the appliance only to the type of power supply indicated
Connect the RTX 55TV to a mains power supply rated 220V ±10%, 50/60 Hz and equipped with an earth system. The power cable of the appliance is equipped with a three pin plug incorporating the earth connection. Accordingly, make sure that the power socket and the mains supply where the appliance is to be installed are wired with earth connections, so that this protection is not lost. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician. Take care to avoid overloading the power socket and any extension leads.
Be careful with cables.
Arrange cables in such a way that they will not cause any obstruction. Keep cables out of the reach of small children. Install the RTX 55 TV as near as possible to the wall power socket. Avoid stepping on power cables, make certain they do not become tangled, and never jerk or tug; do not expose them to sources of heat, and make certain they do not become knotted or kinked, especially near to plugs and connectors or to the point where they leave the RTX 55TV cabinet. If cables become damaged in any way, contact your nearest Service Centre. Do not plug in or switch on the appliance using a defective cable.
Disconnecting the appliance from the power supply. The appliance is isolated from the power supply by removing the plug from the power socket. When installing the appliance, make sure that the plug end of the cable and the mains power socket are easily accessible. To disconnect the appliance from the power supply, pull out the plug. Do not tug the cable.
Disconnect the RTX 55TV during thunderstorms or when not in use.
To prevent lightning strikes near your home from damaging the appliance, disconnect it from the power supply during thunder- storms or whenever it is not going to be used for any length of time.In these cases, it is advisable to remove the plug from the power socket and disconnect the aerial cable as well (Fig. 2). When switching off the appliance overnight,rather than leaving it in standby, switch it off at the main power switch ([32] Fig. 7).
