Safety Precautions

•NEVER MAKE OR CHANGE CONNECTIONSWITHTHE POWER SWITCHED ON.

•Before operating the system,check that the operating voltage indicated on the nameplate (or the voltage indication beside the voltage selector) of your system is identical with the voltage of your local power supply. If not, please consult your dealer.

•Radio equipment for wireless applications is not protected against disturbance from other radio services.

•The product should not be exposed to dripping or splashing.

No object filled with liquids, such as vases, should be placed on the product.

•Do not expose the system to excessive moisture, rain, sand or heat sources caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.

•Allow a sufficient amount of free space all around the Streamium LCD TV for adequate ventilation.

•Do not attempt to repair the product yourself if you experience technical difficulties. Contact your Philips retailer.

•Place the system on a flat, hard and stable surface. When the system is switched to standby mode, it is still consuming some power. To disconnect the system from the power supply completely, remove the AC power plug from the wall socket.

•Make sure the air around the Streamium LCD TV can circulate to prevent the set from overheating internally. Also, avoid putting any heat sources (e.g. a power amplifier) underneath. The Streamium TV has a thermal shutdown that shuts down the set when the internal temperature exceeds a certain threshold. If this happens, the set switches to standby with the Power-LED flashing on and off.To remedy this situation: disconnect the mains, let the set cool down, improve ventilation, and reconnect the set to the mains.
