For your safety

For your safety, and to avoid unnecessary damage to your unit,
please read and follow the safety instructions below:
Intended Use 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 humi-
dity (e.g. bathroom, sauna) or a high dust concentration. The
manufacturer's warranty is only valid for use in the specified permis-
sible 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 when 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 can lead to material overload.
Transporting
Only transport the device in vertical position. Grasp the device on
the upper and lower edges of the housing. If the table stand is not
installed (e.g. if the unit is to be installed on a wall), then under no
circumstances should you set down the TV set on the protruding
control unit on the underside. This could damage the control unit.
If the set has to be put down during packing/unpacking, place the TV
set with the entire front surface lying flat on a soft underlay such as a
blanket or the felt from the packing material.
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 wash 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 can not be damaged. The power cable
may not be kinked or laid over sharp edges, stood on or exposed to
chemicals; the latter also applies to the unit as a whole. A power
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
unobstructed. Please do not place newspapers or cloths on/over the
TV set.
Make sure that there is at
least 10 cm free space on the
10 cm
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.
Set-up
The set is suitable for mounting in many different ways. Note the as-
sembly instructions regarding the different possible mounting options.
Before setting up the device, please check that the final location is
suitable to bear the load of the device in terms of surface (sensitivity
to pressure) and stability (statics).
This is particularly the case for the high-gloss painted surfaces and
surfaces that are made from real wood/real wood veneer.
Place the TV set with the table or floor stand only on a level, sturdy,
horizontal base. Particularly make sure that the set does not protrude
to the front when placed in or on pieces of furniture.
Place the TV set in a normal position for use. The TV set may only be
used in an upright horizontal position. It may not be tilted by more
than 10 degrees. The TV set must never be operated in portrait posi-
tion, lying flat or hanging overhead from the ceiling.
±10°
Set up the device where it is not exposed to direct insolation and
where it is not exposed to additional heating by radiators.
About 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 limits specified in the standard,
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 visible.
