•No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on top of the TV or in the vicinity.

•Do not place your TV set under direct sunlight or heat.

•Leave at least 5 cm around each side of TV set to allow for proper ventilation.

•Avoid placing your set (e.g. near the window) where it is likely to be exposed to rain or water.

•No objects filled with liquids should be placed on top the TV so as to avoid dripping or splashing of liquids on the set.

Useful Tips

•Do not leave your set on standby mode for a prolonged period of time. Switch off set to allow it to be demagnetised. A demagnetised set supports good picture quality.

•Do not shift or move the set around when it is switched on. Uneveness in colour in some parts of the screen may occur.

•Never attempt to repair a defective TV yourself. Always consult a skilled service personnel.
