Safety Information

To ensure reliable and safe operation of this equipment, please read carefully all the instructions in this user guide, especially the safety information below.

Electrical safety

’The TV set should only be connected to a main power supply with voltage that matches the label at the rear of the product.

’To prevent overload, do not share the same power supply socket with too many other electronic components.

’Do not place any connecting wires where they may be stepped on or tripped over.

’Do not place heavy items on them, which may damage the leads.

’Hold the main plug, not the wires, when removing from a socket.

’During a thunderstorm or when not in using the television for long periods, turn off the power switch on the back of the television.

’Do not allow water or moisture to enter the TV or power adapter. Do NOT use in wet, moist areas, such as bathrooms, steamy kitchens or near swimming pools.

’Pull the plug out immediately, and seek professional help if the main plug or cable is damaged, liquid is spilt onto the set, if accidentally exposed to water or moisture, if anything accidentally penetrates the ventilation slots or if the set does not work normally.

’Do not remove the safety covers. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Trying to service the unit yourself is dangerous and may invalidate the product’s warranty. Qualified personnel must only service this apparatus.

’To avoid battery leakage, remove exhausted batteries from the remote control, or when not using for a long period.

’Do not break open or throw exhausted batteries on a fire.

Physical safety

’Do not block ventilation slots in the back cover. You may place the TV in a cabinet, but ensure at least 5cm (2”) clearance all around.

’Do not tap or shake the TV screen, or you may damage the internal circuits. Take good care of the remote control.

’To clean the TV use a soft dry cloth. Do not use solvents or petroleum based fluids.

’Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

’Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider then the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong, the wide blade, or the third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

’Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs.

’Unplug the apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods.

’Refer all servicing to a qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the apparatus, has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

’Please always connect your television to a power outlet with protective ground connection.
