For your safety
This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international safety standarts but, like
any electrical equipment, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to
be assured. So, please read the points below for your own safety. They are of a general nature,
intended to help you with all your electronic consumer products and some points may not apply to
the goods you have just purchased.
Air Circulation...
Leave at least 10 cm clearance around the television
to allow adequate ventilation. This will prevent the
TV from overheating and consequential possible
damage to the TV. Dusty places should also be
avoided.
Heat Damage...
Damage may occur if you leave the TV in direct
sunlight or near a heater. Avoid places subject to
extremely high temperatures or humidity, or locations
where the temperature is likely to fall below 5 C (41
F).
Mains Supply...
The mains supply required for this equipment is 110
­ 240 V AC 50 Hz. Your TV set is designed to operate
with the adapter provided 15V DC.-4.5A. The adaptor
will become hot during use, this is normal. ONLY USE
THE ADAPTOR SUPPLIED WITH THIS TV. Use only the
power cord supplied with the unit.
Never connect to
a DC supply or any other power source. DO ensure
that the TV is not standing on the mains lead. DO
NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment, this

by a correctly rated and approved type and the fuse
cover must be refitted. IF IN DOUBT PLEASE
CONSULT A COMPETENT ELECTRICIAN.
