For your own safety
•You should never attempt to remove the rear panel of the TV yourself. The set operates with high voltages which could be fatal. Leave repairs and servicing of your TV set to authorized TV technicians.
•Due to the picture tube, TV sets have their center of gravity fairly near to the front. The TV set therefore has a tendency to tip forward relatively easily which could cause injury to persons.
Only stand the TV set on a level, firm base. The set must stand on all feet. The TV should not overhang particularly when it is placed in a cabinet or on a shelf.
If the TV is placed on a stand, makes sure this is larger than the surface area of the base of the TV.
When using turntables and drawer shelves, make sure they have a sufficient load capacity.
We recommend you to use only original parts, e.g. Loewe racks and stands.
If the TV set is placed on a console with castors, move the console carefully because the console and the TV could tip over. Consoles with castors may considerably reduce the stability of the sets placed on them so only use consoles specially designed and approved for the TV.
Never allow children to handle the TV set unsupervised.
Do not allow children to play close to the TV set, they could knock, push or pull it from the stand and injure someone.
•Do not place the TV anywhere where it may be exposed to vibrations because this can lead to overloading of materials.
•Do not leave the TV on unsupervised.
•Pull out the antenna and mains plugs during a thunderstorm. Surge voltages from lighting strikes can damage the set both through the antenna system and the mains. You should also pull out the antenna and mains plugs during long periods of absence.
•The mains plug of the TV must be easily accessible so that it can be disconnected from the mains quickly at any time.
•Lay the power cable so that it cannot be damaged. The power cable may not be kinked or laid over sharp edges, and may not be walked over or exposed to chemicals; the latter applies for the entire TV set. A power cable with defective insulation can lead to electric shocks and is a fire risk.
•When you pull out the mains plug, do not tug the cable but hold the housing of the plug. The cables in the mains plug could be damaged and cause a short circuit the next time it is plugged in.
