2. Safety notes

• Always place the monitor on a solid,

stable surface.

• If a cold TV set is moved to a warm

room, always allow any condensation

on the screen to evaporate before swit-

ching it on.

• The TV set is intended for use in a dry

room. If, in exceptional circumstances,

you use it outdoors, take care that is

protected against moisture (rain, splas-

hed water, dew).

• TV sets need adequate ventilation.

Never cover the openings on the rear

of the set with curtains, doilies, new-

spapers, etc. Also take care that the

slits in the bottom of the case are freely

accessible so that the intake of the

cooling air is not hindered.

• If you place the TV set in a wall unit,

leave sufficient space on all sides for

the circulation of cooling air.

• Do not place the TV set close to a radi-

ator, since this would effect adequate

cooling.

• Do not place

- burning candles or

vessels containing liquids (vases, etc.)

on top of the TV set, since any hot wax

or water dripping into the set could

cause serious damage to the electronic

components and could also jeopardize

the electrical safety of the set.

• Lightning can damage electrical equip-

ment. A lightning flash entering the

power cable or the aerial cable can

damage the TV set even if it is swit-

ched off. You should therefore discon-

nect the power cable and aerial cable

from their outlets or from the TV set in

the case of a thunderstorm.

• The monitor may be opened and

repaired only by a qualified person.

CAUTION! HIGH VOLTAGES CAN KILL !

If repairs should be necessary, consult

your local dealer.

• Always switch off the TV set before cle-

aning it.

• Do not hold the remote control directly

in front of your eyes and press a but-

ton. The remote control emits infrared

radiation!

• Do not place rechargeable batteries in

the battery compartment of the remote

control. Use only two 1.5 V dry batte-

ries of the type LR03/AM4/AAA

(Micro).

• The TV set is intended only for the

reception and reproduction of picture

and sound signals.

• The TV set may be operated only from

a mains voltage of 230-240V VAC,

50 Hz. Australia: 240 VAC.

• For maintenance and repair work, the

power plug or the power-cord input of the

TV represents a means to disconnect the

device from the mains and must therefore

be kept in a usable state in line with appli-

cable standards.

•

Lay the power cable so that nothing

stands on it and no-one can trip over it.

• Do not display still images, logos, 4:3

pictures with stripes etc. over an exten-

ded period. These still images can

result in marks on the screen.
