IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
ON OPERATING YOUR TV
Do's and Don'ts
DO's
This Television has been designed and manufactured
to meet international safety standards, but like any
electrical equipment, care must be taken if you are to
obtain the best results and safety is to be assured.
DO read the operating instructions before you at-
tempt to use the equipment.
DO consult your dealer if you are in any doubt about
installation, operation or safety of your equipment.
DO be careful with glass panels or doors on equip-
ment.
This TV is supplied with a fitted mains plug. This plug
must not be cut off as it may contain a special radio
interference filter, the removal of which could lead to
impaired performance. If you wish to extend the lead,
obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead
or consult your dealer.
Observe the manufacturers instructions when con-
necting extension leads to the TV. Check the fuse rat-
ing on the new plug, this should be fitted with a 5 Amp
fuse which conforms to either ASTA or BSI (BS1 362)
approvals, these are easily identifiable by either the
or
symbols. If you are in any doubt about
the installation of an extension lead, please consult a
competent electrician.

aged in any way switch off, withdraw the mains plug
and consult your dealer.

vided.
