1. Setting up and connecting
Setting up
When selecting a suitable place for the TV, be sure that no bright light or sunlight falls on the screen. Light may cause reflections and impair the brilliance of the image.
The best viewing distance is five times the picture tube diagonal, e.g. about 3.5 m for TV sets with a 70 cm screen.

TV sets require adequate ventilation. The ventilation slots at the rear of the set should therefore never be covered by curtains, doilies, newspapers or similar objects. Likewise, all slots at the bottom of the set must be freely accessible so that the intake of air is not impaired in any way
Do not set up the TV near a radiator as this would impair adequate cooling.
Do not place
-burning candles or
-flower vases filled with water on top of the TV set.
Hot wax and liquids destroy the electrical components and jeopardize the electrical safety of the set
If you place the set in a wall unit, leave sufficient space on all sides so that the air can circulate freely.
Your TV set is intended for use in dry rooms. If you wish to use it occasionally outdoors, be sure to protect it against any kind of moisture (rain, splashes, dew, etc.).
Connecting the aerial
Standard SAT and terrestrial station aerial sockets are fitted at the rear of the TV.
Thunderstorms represent a danger for all electrical appliances! If lightning strikes the power line or the aerial, the TV may be damaged even if it is switched off. Therefore, always unplug the mains lead AND aerial during thunderstorms. If the TV is not going to be used for an extended period of time, for instance when on holiday, then disconnect the set both from the mains and the aerial.
Aerial connection
Mains voltage
Plug the mains lead into a wall outlet. The TV set is equipped for 230 V ac (Australia 240 V ac).
