Safety Warnings - Orion TV19PL110D A Instruction Manual

Safety warnings

Damage - Never use your TV if it
is damaged in any way. Always
place your TV on a flat level surface
avoiding anywhere which may be
subject to strong vibration.
Weather - It is advisable to unplug
the aerial during an electrical storm.
Moisture - Do not allow your TV to
be exposed to rain, moisture or dust.
If any liquid is spilt into your TV it
can cause serious damage. If you
spill any liquid into your TV switch it
off at the mains immediately. Con-
tact your store.
Interference
Do not place your TV on or near
appliances which may cause
electromagnetic interference (TV or
Hi-Fi speakers). If you do, it may
adversely affect the working of the
unit, causing erratic playback,
distorted picture or sound.
Note:
• When installing the set on
a wall, allow at least 10 cm
clearance between the rear
of the set and the wall.
Clearance of less than 10
cm will obstruct the vents
and cause the interior of the
set to overheat, resulting in
faults or damage to the set.
• If the unit is mounted on the
wall, contact the shop
where you purchased the
unit for advice, and leave
the installation work to
experts. Incomplete
installation work can cause
you injuries.
• The apparatus must be
connected to a mains
socket outlet with a
protective earthing
connection.
• The socket outlet must be
installed near the
equipment and easily
accessible.

Temperature
Avoid extremes of temperature,
either hot or cold, place your TV well
away from heat sources such as
radiators or gas/electric fires.
Ventilation
The TV must be well ventilated. Do
not cover your TV or place inside a
small confined space. It is recom-
mended that you leave a 10cm gap
all around your TV.
Batteries
Batteries are easily swallowed by
young children. Do not allow young
children to play with the remote
control unit.
Covers - Do not remove any fixed
covers as this may expose danger-
ous voltages.
Standby
Do not leave your TV in standby for
long periods of time e.g. overnight
or while on holiday. We recommend
that you switch off / unplug at the
mains power supply.
Plasma and LCD TV Screen Burn Warning
A characteristic of Plasma and LCD TV Panels is that displaying the same image
for a long time may cause a permanent after-image to remain on the screen. This
is called screen burn. Most pictures shown on your TV will be constantly moving
and fill the screen.
Examples of images that you need to watch out for are as follows (this is not an
all-inclusive list):
• Black Bars: If black bars appear at the left/right or top/bottom of the screen
it is recommended to change the format so that the picture fills the entire
screen.
• TV Channel Logos: e.g. Shopping channel logos and pricing displays -
especially if they are bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics
are less likely to cause ageing of the screen.
• PIP and Multipip: Do not view for long periods of time using the PIP or
Multipip functions.
• Time Displays
• Teletext: Do not view a stationary page for long periods of time.
• TV/DVD Menus: e.g. Listings of DVD disk content.
• Pause Mode: Do not leave the screen in pause mode for long periods of time,
e.g. When watching DVDs or videos.
Note: To prevent screen burn if viewing any of the above for long periods of
time, reduce contrast and brightness when viewing. Once burn-in occurs it will
never disappear completely.

Attention!
Cleaning instructions for your LCD
TV.
Safety note:
Before you start to clean, switch the
set's power off completely and
disconnect the plug from the mains
power supply.
Be careful not to scratch the plastic
coated front panel - it is highly
vulnerable to accidental scratching
(e.g. by fingernails or other sharp
items).
While cleaning, do not wear
jewellery that could cause surface
scratching (such as rings, wrist-
watch, etc.).
Use a lint-free cloth and pure water
to clean with, but make sure the
cloth is thoroughly wrung out so that
it is just damp and not soaking wet -
also make sure that the cloth is free
from any dirt that could cause
scratching to the surface.
Wipe the set clean using minimal
pressure.
Do not use standard window
cleaning fluid. Its alcohol / ammonia
will dissolve the front window's
coating.
Never use solvent or thinner. Never
use special cleaners which are
designed for cleaning PC Monitors
or CRT TVs.
Finally carefully rub dry with a clean
dry lint-free cloth.
Do not use paper towels or tissues to
clean the set - paper can disintegrate
when wet or may leave a trail of
dust behind. Some paper can also
be abrasive and scratch your screen.
