MENU

•When moving the set two persons are needed. DO NOT push

speaker nets placed on the both side of the screen to prevent

these parts from deformation and do not grasp the front panels

to prevent these parts from breaking off. Support screen bottom

with one hand while grasping the top part with the other hand.

•Do not block or cover the ventilation opening placed on the left

bottom rear side of the set. For ventilation, leave a space of at least

10 cm from the wall.

•After transporting the set directly from a cold to a warm location,

or if the room temperature has changed suddenly, pictures may

be blurred or show poor colour over portions of the picture. This

is because moisture has condensed on the mirrors or lenses

inside the set. Let the moisture evaporate before using the set.

•To obtain a clear picture, do not expose the screen to direct

illumination or direct sunlight. If possible, use spot lighting

directed down from the ceiling.

• This set incorporates the latest high-precision LCD technology.

Even though the highest standards are applied in manufacture it is

still possible that a few black dots or bright points (red, green or

blue) may be visible on the screen under certain picture conditions.

It is not possible to remove them and this is not a fault condition.

• The screen of this set has an anti-reflection screen coating. To avoid

screen degradation, follow the mentioned below:

• To remove dust from the screen surface, wipe with the suplied

cleaning cloth or a soft cloth.

• Clean the screen and cabinet with a soft dampened cloth. Do not

use any abrasive cleaners. As a safety precaution, unplug the set

before cleaning it.

• Avoid touching the screen, and take care not to scratch the

surface with hard objects.
