Operating instructions

For your safety

For your own safety and to prevent unnecessary damage to your device,
read and comply with the following safety instructions:
Proper use and environmental conditions
This TV set is designed exclusively for reception and reproduction of
video and audio signals and is designed for living rooms or office fa-
cilities, and should not be operated in rooms with high humidity, such
as a bathroom, or sauna, or where there is a high concentration of dust
(e.g. workshops). The manufacturer's warranty is only valid for use in
the specified permissible environment.
If the set is used outdoors ensure that it is protected against moisture
(rain, splashing water, or dew). High humidity and dust concentrations
cause leak currents in the device, which can cause a shock hazard if the
device is touched, or a fire.
If you have brought the set into a warm environment from the cold,
then wait for about 1 hour before switching it on to avoid formation
of condensation.
Do not place any objects filled with
liquids on top of the appliance.
Protect the appliance against drip-
ping and splashing water.
Candles or naked flames must be
kept away from the appliance at
all times to prevent it from catching
fire.
Never place the TV set in a position
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.
The lower edge of the appliance has a speaker mesh covered with
fabric. Please note that jewellery, rough or dirty hands or similar can
damage or soil this fabric mesh. We recommend wearing gloves when
transporting the appliance.
The set is delivered ex factory without a mounting option. Do not stand
it up on the bottom edge, so as to reduce the risk of damage and soil-
ing. 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 dam-
aged and liquid crystal might be leaking out. In the case of skin contact
immediately wash thoroughly with water.

Power supply
The wrong voltage can damage the set. This equipment must only be
connected to a mains power supply which has the same voltage and
frequency as that specified on the rating plate; use the mains cable
provided. 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 you
unplug the mains plug, do not pull on the cable rather pull on the plug
housing. The cable in the mains plug could be damaged and cause a
short circuit the next time it is plugged in.
Lay out the mains cable in such a manner that it cannot be damaged.
The mains cable must not be kinked or laid over sharp edges, stepped
on or exposed to chemicals; The latter also applies for the entire equip-
ment. A mains cable with damaged insulation can cause electrical shock
and is a fire hazard.
Air circulation and high temperatures
The vent slots on the rear panel of the set must always be kept free.
Please do not place newspapers or cloths on/over the TV.
Ensure that there is at least
10 cm free space on the sides
and above the set for air cir-
culation, 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, needles,
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 immediately
unplug the mains plug of the device and contact customer service for
more information.
Automatic shutdown (only in Home Mode)
If the TV is not operated for 4 hours (adjustment of volume, programme
change, etc.) the TV will automatically switch to stand-by mode to save
energy. A prompt to terminate this shutdown process appears one
minute before expiry of the 4 hours.
The automatic shutdown is generally active for the TV mode as soon as
the energy efficiency mode Home Mode is activated for at least one of
the six signal input groups (see page 150). This also applies if another
energy efficiency mode is selected when putting into operation for
the first time (see page 22), but one of the six signal input groups is
subsequently set to Home Mode.
Automatic shutdown does not occur when using the radio without
screen display (screen off).
