The model and serial number are on the rear of the TV and on the packaging.

This TV consumes minimal energy in standby mode to minimize environmental impact. The active power consumption is given on the type plate at the rear of the TV.

1.2Screen care

Turn off and unplug the power cord before cleaning the screen.

Clean the screen with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use substances such as household cleaning agents as these may damage the screen.
