Please note the following instructions when
setting up the television set:
7  
This television is designed to receive and dis-
play video and audio signals.
 
 
  
All other uses are expressly prohibited.
7  
The  ideal  viewing  distance  is  five  times  the
diagonal screen size.
7  
Light  falling  on  the  screen  impairs  picture
quality.
7  
To ensure the device is always adequately ven-
tilated, make sure there is sufficient space be-
tween the television set and nearby furniture.
7  
The television is designed for use in dry rooms.
If you do use it outdoors, make sure it is pro-
tected from moisture such as rain or splashing
water.
  
Never expose the television set to moisture.
7  
Do not place any vessels such as vases on the
television, as they may spill liquid, thus present-
ing a safety risk.
7  
Place the television on a hard, level surface.
7  
Do not place any objects such as newspapers
on the television or put cloth or similar items
under it.
7  
Do not place the television close to heating
units  or  in  direct  sunlight,  as  this  will  impair
cooling.
7  
Heat build-up can be dangerous and shortens
the service life of the television. For reasons of
safety, have a repairman remove any dirt in
the television from time to time.
7  
Never open the television under any circum-
stances.  Warranty  claims  are  excluded  for
damage resulting from improper handling.
7  
Make sure the power cord or the power sup-
ply unit (if provided) are not damaged.
7  
Only  operate  the  television  with  the  power
supply/power cord provided.
7  
Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical
devices. Even when the television is switched
off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to
the mains or the antenna. Always disconnect
the mains and antenna plugs during a storm.
7  
Use a damp, soft cloth to clean the screen.
Do not use water with soap or detergent.
7  
Only clean the housing of your television set
with the cloth provided. Do not use water with
soap or detergent.
7  
When deciding where to put the device, re-
member that furniture is often coated with vari-
ous types of varnish and plastic. Many of these
contain chemicals which can corrode the feet
of the device, leaving marks on the surface of
the furniture which can be difficult or impossi-
ble to remove.
7  
The  screen  of  your  LCD  television  meets
the  highest  quality  standards  and  has  been
checked for pixel faults.
 
  
Despite the great care taken in manufacturing,
technological reasons make it impossible to
completely discount the possibility that some
pixels may be faulty.
 
  
Provided they are within the thresholds speci-
fied by the DIN norm, pixel faults of this kind
cannot be regarded as a defect as defined by
the warranty.
7  
To ensure fires do not occur, always
keep  candles  and  other  open
flames away from the device.
