They are of a general nature, intended to help with all electronic consumer products and help to ensure
your safety. Some points may not apply to the equipment you have just purchased.
This Class I apparatus must be connected to a mains outlet with a protective connection to earth.

Air Circulation

Leave more than 10cm clearance around the
television to allow adequate ventilation. This will
prevent overheating and possible damage to the
set. Dusty places should also be avoided.

Heat Damage

Damage may occur if the television is left in direct
sunlight or near a heater. Avoid places subject to
extremely high temperature or humidity. Install the
set in a location where the temperature remains
between 5°C (41°F) min. and 35°C (94°F) max.

Mains Supply

This equipment requires a 220-240V AC 50/60Hz
mains supply. Never connect it to a DC supply or
any other power source. Please make sure that
the television is not standing on the mains lead.
Use only the supplied lead.
DO NOT cut off the mains plug. The plug on
the mains lead incorporates a special Radio
Frequency Interference Filter. If this plug is
removed the performance of the television set will
be impaired. In the UK, the fuse fitted in the plug
is approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362.
And should only be replaced by a correctly rated
and approved type and the fuse cover must be
refitted.
