•
(see Appendix in this operation manual.)
The lifetime of the background light is approx. 2.5 times longer than that of a CRT.

This TV complies with the chemical requirements of the EU Eco-label.
•
A minimum of two year functionality are granted in all EU-states.

What can you do to contribute towards helping to protect the environment?
Please do not leave your TV in stand-by mode, unplug it when it is not used for a long time. There is

The energy consumption in the on-mode can be reduced by lowering the brightness of the backlight
•
when the unit is in operation. This will reduce overall running costs.
