    Foreword Dear customer, thank you for selecting a Metz TV set with perfect 100 Hz tech- nology. We have equipped this TV set with a menu system which uses "file cards" and believe that this will provide you with a user interface that is easy to under- stand.
  • Page 3: Installation

    1. Installation • Take care that no bright artificial light or sunshi- ne falls directly on the screen. This could cause reflections which have a negative effect on the brilliance of the picture. • The optimum viewing distance is about five times the screen diagonal dimen- sion.
  • Page 4: Safety Notes

    2. Safety notes • Always place the monitor on a solid, stable sur- face. • If a cold TV set is moved to a warm room, always allow any condensation on the screen to evaporate before switching it on. • The TV set is intended for use in a dry room. If, in exceptional circumstances, you use it out- doors, take care that is protected against moi- sture (rain, splashed water, dew).
  • Page 5 2. Safety notes • Lightning can damage electrical equipment. A lightning flash entering the power cable or the aerial cable can damage the TV set even if it is switched off. You should therefore disconnect the power cable and aerial cable from their out- lets or from the TV set in the case of a thunder- storm.
