Positioning the TV

For the best results, choose a position where light does not fall directly on the screen, and at some distance away from radiators or other sources of heat. Leave a space of at least 5 cm all around the TV for ventilation, making sure that curtains, cupboards etc. cannot obstruct the air flow through the ventilation apertures. The TV is intended for use in a domestic environment only and should never be operated or stored in excessively hot or humid atmospheres.

General Points

Please take note of the section entitled ‘Tips’ at the end of this booklet.

Interference

The Department of Trade and Industry operates a Radio Interference Investigation Service to help TV licence holders improve reception of BBC and IBA programmes where they are being spoilt by interference. If your dealer cannot help,ask at a main Post Office for the booklet “How to Improve Television and Radio Reception”.

Mains connection

Before connecting the TV to the mains, check that the mains supply voltage cor- responds to the voltage printed on the type plate on the rear panel of the TV. If the mains voltage is different, consult your dealer.

Important

This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 13 AMP plug. Should it become necessary to replace the mains fuse, this must be replaced with a fuse of the same value as indicated on the plug.

1Remove fuse cover and fuse.

2The replacement fuse must comply with BS 1362 and have the ASTA approval mark. If the fuse is lost, make contact

with your retailer in order to verify the correct type.

3Refit the fuse cover.

If for any reason the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlet, please consult your retailer or a qualified electrician before proceeding with the installation.

Connecting the aerial

The aerial should be connected to the socket marked : at the back of the set.An inferior aerial is likely to result in a poor, perhaps unstable picture with ghost images and lack of contrast. Make-shift loft or set- top aerials are often inadequate. Your dealer will know from experience the most suitable type for your locality. Should you wish to use the set in conjunction with

other equipment, which connects to the aerial socket such as TV games, or a video camera it is recommended that these be connected via a combiner unit to avoid repeated connection and disconnection of the aerial plug.

Fitting the stand (if provided)

Use only the stand provided with the set, making sure that the fixings are properly tightened. A diagram showing how to assemble the stand is packed with the stand. Never use a make-shift stand, or legs fixed with woodscrews.
