Safety warnings
Damage
Never use your TV if it is damaged in any
way. Always place your TV on a flat level
surface avoiding anywhere, which may be
subject to strong vibration.
Weather
It is advisable to unplug the aerial during an
electrical storm.
Moisture
Do not allow your TV to be exposed to rain,
moisture, and dust. If any liquid is spilt into
your TV, it can cause serious damage. If you
spill any liquid into your TV, switch it off at the
mains immediately. Contact your store.
Interference
Do not place your TV on or near appliances,
which may cause electromagnetic interference
(TV or Hi-Fi speakers). If you do, it may
adversely affect the working of the unit, and
cause a distorted picture or sound.
Temperature
Avoid extremes of temperature, either hot or
cold, place your TV well away from heat
sources such as radiators or gas/electric fires.
Ventilation
The TV must be well ventilated. Do not cover
your TV or position in a small confined space.
It is recommended that you leave a 10cm gap
all around your TV.
Batteries
Young children easily swallow batteries. Do
not allow young children to play with the
remote control unit.
Covers
Do not remove any fixed covers as this may
expose dangerous voltages.
Standby
Do not leave your TV in standby for long
periods of time e.g. overnight or while on
holiday.
ATTENTION!
If a bright stationary image is
left on any TV for a long enough period of
time, (longer than 4 hours continuous display),
it is possible that some screen burn may result -
this leaves a shadow of the image on the
screen even after the original image has been
removed. Stationary images to watch out for
are:
•
TV games with static scenes (background
scores, time remaining, etc.)
•
Programmed channel identifiers shown in
corner of TV screen and the red interactive
logo on BBC channels via satellite
•
DVD on-screen logos and displays (e.g.
the logo displayed during audio CD
playback)
•
Radio station identifier screen on satellite
If a still picture cannot be avoided, then
reduce the brightness and contrast levels of
the picture to minimize any damage that might
occur.

An LCD panel and/or video
monitor may be installed in a motor vehicle
and visible to the driver if the LCD panel or

information, system control, rear or side
observation or navigation.
If the LCD panel or video monitor is used for
television reception, video or DVD play, it
must be installed to the rear of the driver’s seat
