Do not cover the ventilation openings on the back.
!
The heat exchange inside the unit generates an air
circulation which attracts dust particles (carpet and
curtain fibres and home dust). These particles
accumulate inside the ventilation slots obstructing
these over the years and causing a build-up of heat.
Heat build-up can reduce the service life of your
television, and can also be dangerous.
For your own safety, let remove the dust deposits
by a specialist from time to time.
!
Never set up speakers next to the unit.
!
When setting up and using this unit, please make
sure that the mains connection wire is free and not
jammed in order to avoid damage.
!
Never place the television near heat sources.
!
Even if your television is switched off, it can still be
damaged by lightning striking the mains and/or
aerial cables.
For this reason, you should always disconnect your
television from the mains and the aerial system
during electrical storms.
!
Never expose the unit to moisture.
!
Do not insert foreign objects into the ventilation
openings on the back.
Caution! High voltage!

In case this appliance is supplied with a Safety Standard Approved mains lead fit-
ted with a non-rewireable 13 Amp mains plug which, if unsuitable for your
socket, should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted by a
qualified electrician. The fuse and fuse holder must be removed from the plug as
accidental insertion of the redundant plug into a 13 Amp socket is likely to cause
an electrical hazard.
Note: The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard
should it be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.
If it is necessary to change the fuse in the non-rewireable plug, the correct type
and rating (5 Amp ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362) must be used and the fuse
cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged the lead and plug must
not be used until a replacement is obtained. Replacement fuse covers should be
obtained from your dealer.
If a non-rewireable plug or a rewireable 13 Amp (BS 1363) plug is used, it must
