For your safety

For your safety, and to avoid unnecessary damage to your unit,
please read and follow the safety advice below:
Use for the intended purpose and ambient conditions
This TV set is intended exclusively for receiving and playing visual and
audio signals. It must not be used in rooms with a high level of humid-
ity (e.g. bathroom, sauna) or a high dust concentration (e.g. work-
shops). The manufacturer's warranty is only valid for use in the
specified permissible environment.
If the unit is used outdoors, make sure that it is protected from moisture
(rain, dripping water and splashing water or dew). High humidity and
dust concentrations lead to leakage currents in the device. This can
result in a shock hazard by touching it or even fire.
If you have moved the unit out of
the cold into a warm environment,
leave it switched off for about an
hour to avoid the formation of
condensation.
Do not place objects containing
liquids on top of the unit. Protect
the appliance against dripping and
splashing water.
Candles or naked flames must be
kept away from the TV set at all
times to prevent it from catching
fire.
Never place the TV set in a location where it is exposed to vibrations.
This may lead to damage.
Transporting
Move the device in vertical position only. Grasp the device on the
upper and lower edges of the housing.
If the set has to be put down during packing/unpacking, place the TV
set with its entire front surface lying flat on soft material such as a
blanket or the fleece from the packing material. Use a blanket or the
fleece from the packing material as an underlay.
The LCD screen is made of glass or plastic and can break if not handled
properly.
Always wear rubber gloves to carry the TV set if the LCD screen is
damaged and liquid crystal might be leaking out. In the case of skin
contact immediately rinse thoroughly with water.
Power supply
Incorrect voltages can damage the unit. This device may only be con-
nected to a power supply with the voltage and frequency indicated on the
type plate using the supplied mains cable. The mains plug of the TV set
must be easily accessible so that the device can be disconnected from
the mains at any time. When unplugging the unit from the mains, pull at
the connector body and not at the cable. The cables in the mains plug
could otherwise be damaged and could cause a short-circuit when
plugged in again.
Lay the mains cable so that it cannot be damaged. Do not step on
the mains cable. The mains cable may not be kinked or laid over sharp
edges nor be exposed to chemicals; the latter also applies to the unit
as a whole. A mains cable with damaged insulation can cause electric
shocks and poses a fire risk.

Air circulation and high temperatures
The vent slots on the rear panel of the set must always be kept un-
obstructed. Please do not place newspapers or cloths on/over the TV
set.
Ensure that there is at least
10 cm free space on the
sides and above the set for
air circulation, if the set is
placed in a cabinet or on a
shelf.
Like any electronic device,
your TV set requires air for
cooling. Obstruction of the
air circulation can cause fires.
Prevent metal items, nee-
dles, paper clips, liquids, wax, or similar items, from getting into the
interior of the device through the vent slots in the rear panel. Such
objects can cause short circuits in the set, which could possibly
cause a fire.
If something should get into the interior of the set then immedi-
ately unplug the mains plug of the device and contact the field service
for more information.
Note on the LCD screen
The TV set with LCD screen you have purchased satisfies the most
rigorous quality requirements and has been inspected with respect
to pixel errors. Despite of thorough care when manufacturing the
display, it cannot be 100% guaranteed that no subpixel defects will
occur due to technical reasons. Please understand that these types
of effects, as long as they are within the standard of specified limits,
cannot be considered as a device defect in terms of the guarantee.
Avoid displaying still images for long periods of time. It is possible that
a copy of the image may remain.
TV sets with 3D function
Read the following safety instructions before using the 3D function
of your TV set.
Please use the Loewe 3D TV sets only with the Loewe 3D glasses
which can be purchased as an accessory from your Loewe dealer
(see chapter Accessories).
People that have a visual disorder may not be able to perceive 3D ef-
fects or may only be able to perceive them to a limited extent. People
who are sensitive to flickering images (e.g. those with epilepsy) should
only use the 3D function after having consulted their doctor.
It might take some time for you to get used to the 3D glasses and
before you can perceive the 3D effects properly.
Stop using the 3D function immediately if you experience any feelings
of nausea, dizziness or malaise when viewing 3D content.
Supervise children whilst they are viewing 3D content, as they can be
particularly sensitive to it.
Allow more time for a break when viewing 3D films, so that you are
able to relax. Failure to do this could result in headaches, fatigue, diz-
ziness or malaise.
Position yourself comfortably in front of the 3D TV set and ensure that
you are seated firmly. By doing this, you will avoid any injuries that may
arise due to reacting to extreme 3D content.
Switch off any artificial light sources (e.g. energy saving lamp) between
the 3D TV set and the 3D glasses. These could impair the infrared
reception or the TV picture may flicker as a result.
