About this manual

This manual is common to several TV models. Therefore, the model you bought may not support some of the functions or settings described hereinafter.

About set-up

To ensure your own safety and safe operation of the equipment, observe the following instructions thoroughly.

TV sets require sufficient ventilation to prevent their components from overheating, which will cause failure. Do not block the ventilation openings at the rear. If you place your TV set in a specific unit, make sure there is enough space for unhindered air circulation. Do not place the TV set in the close vicinity of a heater.

In the following cases, we recommend that you pull out the mains connector:

1.During a thunderstorm. In such a case, it is advisable that you also disconnect the TV set from the aerial socket.

2.When odour or smoke emanates from the set. Further information:

The TV set shielding is sufficient to prevent X-radiation to the exterior. The accelerator voltage does not exceed 26 kV.

Any operation performed by a non skilled person, change of high voltage or replacement of the teletube by a model not complying with the manufacturer specification are likely to cause considerable increase in X-radiation.

A TV set modified in such a way no longer complies with the manufacturer specification and shall not be put in operation again.

cleaners.

•Never use abrasive products.

•Clean the front side and the housing with a soft cloth soaked with neutral cleaner. Do not use solvents, such as white spirit or alcohol-based cleaning products since they are likely to deteriorate your equipment.

•At regular intervals, clean the ventilation grids at the rear of the TV set.

About degaussing

The TV set has been designed for use in dry rooms. Should you exceptionally operate it in the open air (example: on the balcony, in the veranda or tent), you must absolutely protect it against moisture (dew, rain, splash water). Prior to put up into operation a cold TV set in a warm room, you should wait until the possibly misted-up screen has dried by itself. In no case should you dismantle your TV set yourself.

By the end of your TV evening or when away from home for a longer period, we recommend that you turn off the TV set with the On/Off-switch.

Even when the On/Off-switch is in the Off-position, your TV set is not fully disconnected from the mains. To deenergize the set completely, the mains plug must be pulled out.

The terrestrial magnetic field may have an influence on your TV set. This influence is revealed by the coloured spots, which appear on the screen.

Should this be the case:

•Turn the equipment off by means of the On/Off-switch.

•Wait about one hour before switching the

set on again.

This procedure performs automatic degaussing of the screen. Should there still be coloured spots on the screen, repeat the operation.

Do not place speakers in close vicinity of the TV set since the electromagnet of the speakers may cause coloured spots to appear on

the screen.
