The following faults are not caused by the receiver:
"GHOSTS"
Reflections of signals from mountains or high buildings will cause multiple images, called "Ghosts".
These abnormal conditions can be reduced to minimum by repositioning aerial or by installing new one
suited for your area.
"INTERFERENCE"
Interference may be caused by electrical appliances, car ignition systems, etc. This should normally be a
temporary condition, but should this interference persist, contact your dealer.
Care and Cleaning
The surface of the cabinet can be damaged if not properly maintained. Many common house-
hold aerosol sprays, cleaning agents, solvents and polishes will cause permanent damage to
the fine surface.
1. Unplug the power cord before cleaning the Television.
2. Clean the screen with a soft cloth dampened with glass cleaner or warm water.
3. Clean the cabinet with a soft cloth dampened with a mild household detergent and warm
water. Dry thoroughly.
Note: NEVER spray liquids on the screen because they can run down and drip onto the
chassis. This may cause component failure not covered under Warranty.
