General Information & Safety Instructions

To avoid damaging the television set, please observe the following safety instructions during setup and use.

Cleaning the Television Set

Before cleaning, disconnect the television set. Use only a soft damp cloth or a special cleaning product for flat-screens. Too much pressure on the screen can damage the television set.

Environmental Considerations

• Heat/damp/humidity: The television set should not be exposed to high temperatures (radiators, open fire) or used in areas with high humidity.
• Condensation: If moved from a cool area to one with a higher temperature, the television set should be left for at least an hour before plugging it in. Rapid temperature changes can lead to condensation, causing damage if the set is in use.
• Air Circulation: To prevent overheating, ensure ventilation slots at the rear are always clear.

Handling & Protection

• Small Objects: It is important to ensure no small objects or liquids enter the television set, as they can cause damage or fire.
• Liquids/Candles: Do not place anything holding a liquid or any candles on the television set.
• Crushing: Take care to avoid crushing fingers or other objects when moving the television set.

Electric Supply

Use the television set only with the voltage indicated in the specifications. Ensure easy access to the plug for disconnection. Always pull the plug, not the power cable. The power cable must not be kinked or placed over sharp edges.

Moving the Television Set

When moving the television set, hold only the casing.

Repairs/Accessories

Repairs and servicing must be undertaken only by authorized and trained personnel.

Batteries

In accordance with the Batteries Regulation, batteries are to be disposed of only in provided containers.

In extreme weather (storms, lightning) and long inactivity periods (going on holiday), disconnect the TV set from the mains. The mains plug is used to disconnect the TV set from the mains and therefore it must remain readily operable. If the TV set is not disconnected electrically from the mains, the device will still draw power even if the TV is in standby mode or switched off.

IMPORTANT - Please read these instructions fully before installing or operating

❗ WARNING: Never let people (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and/or knowledge use electrical devices unsupervised.

The TV set is intended for Outdoor and similar general use but may also be used in public places. It is prohibited to enclose it in a sealed box or embed it in a wall. Ventilation should not be impeded by covering or blocking the ventilation openings with items such as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains, etc. The power cord plug should be easily accessible. Do not place the TV, furniture, etc. on the power cord. A damaged power cord/plug can cause fire or give you an electric shock. Handle the power cord by the plug; never touch the power cord/plug with wet hands as this could cause a short circuit or electric shock. Never make a knot in the power cord or tie it with other cords. When damaged, it must be replaced by qualified personnel.

❗ WARNING: Never place a television set in unstable or inclined locations. A television set may fall, causing serious personal injury or death. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions, such as educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television set or its controls.

WALL MOUNTING WARNINGS

Read the instructions before mounting your TV on the wall. Mounting brackets are not supplied with the TV. Do not install the TV on a ceiling or on an inclined wall. Use the specified wall mounting screws and other accessories. Tighten the wall mounting screws firmly to prevent the TV from falling. Do not over-tighten the screws.

Installation Environment

❗ WARNING: Please install the television in a well-ventilated area. It is prohibited to enclose it in a sealed box or embed it in a wall. Do not rinse the TV from the bottom upwards as this may damage the TV. Avoid using in direct sunlight.
