Important information
Safety
| Ensure that your domestic mains supply voltage matches the | |
| voltage indicated on the identification sticker located at the | |
| back of your set. | |
| The TV set's components are sensitive to heat.The | |
EN | ||
maximum ambient temperature should not exceed 35° | ||
| ||
| Celsius. Do not cover the vents at the back or sides of the | |
| ||
| TV set. Leave sufficient space around it to allow adequate | |
| ventilation. | |
| Moisture in rooms where the set is installed should not | |
| exceed 85% humidity. If you have to use the TV set outdoors, | |
| do not expose it to rain or splashing water. Moving the | |
| set from a cold place to a warm one can cause condensation | |
| on the screen (and on some components inside the TV set). | |
| Let the condensation evaporate before switching the TV set | |
| on again. | |
| If you intend to be away for a long period, switch the TV | |
| set off at the on/off switch A. Even when off, some | |
| components remain in contact with the mains electricity | |
| supply.To completely isolate the set you must remove the plug | |
| from the mains supply socket. | |
| During thunderstorms, we recommend that you disconnect | |
| the TV set from the mains and aerial so that it is not affected | |
| by electrical or electromagnetic surges that could damage it. | |
| For this reason, keep the mains and aerial sockets | |
| accessible so they can be disconnected, if necessary. |
Unplug the TV set immediately if you notice it giving off a burning smell or smoke.You must never, under any circumstances, open the TV set yourself, as you run the risk of an electric shock in doing so.
