Additional Safety Information
When moving the TV set two persons are needed. To prevent damage DO NOT push on the speaker grills on each side of the screen. Do not grasp the front panels to prevent these parts from breaking off. Support the bottom of the screen with one hand while grasping the top part with the other hand. Do not block or cover the ventilation opening situated on the bottom rear of the left hand side of the TV set. For ventilation, leave a space of at least 10 cm from the wall. If after transporting the TV 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 condensation has formed on the mirrors or lenses inside the TV set. Let the moisture evaporate before using the TV 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 TV 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 TV set has an anti-reflection screen coating. To avoid screen degradation, follow the advice given below: To remove dust from the surface of the screen, wipe with the supplied cleaning cloth or a soft cloth. Clean the screen and cabinet with a soft, lightly dampened cloth. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, alkaline cleaner, scouring powder or solvent, such as alcohol or benzine, or antistatic spray. As a safety precaution, unplug the TV before cleaning it. Avoid touching the screen, and take care not to scratch the surface with hard objects.
