Servicing & Helpful Hints

Servicing

Your television is fully transistorised and does not contain any user serviceable components.

Removal of the cabinet cover may expose you to dangerous voltages. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Unplug the television receiver from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

■If the power cord or plug is damaged.

■If liquid has been spilt into the television receiver.

■If television receiver has been exposed to rain or water.

■If the television receiver has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.

■If the television receiver exhibits a distinct change in performance.

■If the television receiver does not operate normally by following the operating instructions.

Adjust only those controls that are covered in the operating instructions as improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage. This will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the television receiver to normal operation.

When replacement parts are required, have the service technician verify that the replacements he uses have the same safety characteristics as the original parts. Use of manufacturers specified replacements can prevent fire, shock or other hazards.

"GHOSTS"

Reflections of signals from mountains or high buildings will cause multiple images, called "Ghosts". These abnormal conditions can be reduced to minimum by repositioning aerial or by installing new one suited for your area.

"INTERFERENCE"

Interference may be caused by electrical appliances, car ignition systems, etc. This should normally be a temporary condition, but should this interference persist, contact your dealer.
