Safety Precautions
Please read the following recommended safety pre-
cautions carefully for your safety.
IMPORTANT SAFETY
INFORMATION ON OPERATING
YOUR TV
Do’s and Don’ts
DO’s
This Television has been designed and manu-
factured to meet international safety standards,
but like any electrical equipment, care must be
taken if you are to obtain the best results and
safety is to be assured.
DO read the operating instructions before you
attempt to use the equipment.
DO consult your dealer if you are in any doubt
about installation, operation or safety of your
equipment.
DO be careful with glass panels or doors on
equipment.
This TV is supplied with a fitted mains plug.  This
plug must not be cut off as it may contain a spe-
cial radio interference filter, the removal of which
could lead to impaired performance.  If you wish
to extend the lead, obtain an appropriate safety
approved extension lead or consult your dealer.
Observe the manufacturers instructions when
connecting extension leads to the TV.  Check the
fuse rating on the new plug, this should be fitted
with a 5 Amp fuse which conforms to either ASTA
or BSI (BS1 362) approvals, these are easily
identifiable by either the 
 or  symbols.  If
you are in any doubt about the installation of an
extension lead, please consult a competent
electrician.
DON’Ts
DON’T continue to operate the equipment if you
are in any doubt about it working normally, or if it
is damaged in any way switch off, withdraw the
mains plug and consult your dealer.
DON’T place water filled vessels on top of T.V.
cabinets.
DON’T remove any fixed cover as this may ex-
pose dangerous voltages.
DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is
unattended unless it is specifically stated that it
is designed for unattended operation or has a
stand-by mode.  Switch off using the switch on
the equipment and make sure your family know
how to do this.  Special arrangements may need
to be made for infirm or handicapped people.
DON’T use equipment such as personal stereos
or radios so that you are distracted from the re-
quirements of traffic safety.  It is illegal to watch
television whilst driving.
DON’T obstruct the ventilation of the equipment,
for examp le with curtains or soft furnishings.
Overheating will cause damage and shorten the
life of the equipment.
DON’T use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs
or stands to the TV with any screws other than
those provided - to ensure complete safety al-
ways use the manufacturers approved stand
with the fixings provided.
DON’T allow electrical equipment to be exposed
to rain or moisture.
ABOVE ALL
• NEVER let anyone, especially children push
anything into holes, slots or any other open-
in g in the case - this could result in  a fatal
electric shock.
• NEVER guess or take chances with electrical
equipment of any kind - it is better to be safe
than sorry!
Surely connect
the ground wire.
PE Connection to mains
Be sure to ground the connection properly. Connect the ground terminal
of TV with the ground terminal provided at the power outlet using the
enclosed power cord. If the provided plug does not fit your outlet, con-
sult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
 
						

							- 4 -
1.Power Source
The TV set should be operated only from a 220-240 V
AC, 50 Hz outlet. Ensure that you select the correct
voltage setting for your convenience.
2.Power Cord
Do not place the set, a piece of furniture, etc. on the
power cord (mains lead) or pinch the cord. Handle
the power cord by the plug. Do not pull out the plug by
tugging the cord and never touch the power cord
when your hands are wet as this could cause a short
circuit or electric shock. Never make a knot in the cord
or tie it with other cords. The power cords should be
placed in such a way that they are not likely to be
stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause fire or
give you an electric shock. When it is damaged and
needs to be changed, it should be done by qualified
personnel.
3. Moisture and Water
 Do not use this equipment in a humid and damp place
(avoid the bathroom, the sink in the kitchen, and near
the washing machine). Do not expose this equipment
to rain or water, as this may be dangerous and do not
place objects filled with liquids, such as flower vases,
on top. Avoid from dripping or splashing.
If any solid object or liquid falls into the cabinet, unplug
the TV and have it checked by qualified personnel
before operating it any further.
4.Cleaning
Before cleaning, unplug the TV set from the wall out-
let. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use soft and
dry cloth.
5. Ventilation
The slots and openings on the TV set are intended for
ventilation and to ensure reliable operation. To pre-
vent overheating, these openings must not be blocked
or covered in anyway.
6. Heat and Flames
The set should not be placed near to naked flames
and sources of intense heat, such as an electric
heater. Ensure that no naked flame sources, such as
lighted candles, are placed on top of the TV. Batteries
shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sun-
shine, fire or the like.
7. Lightning
In case of storm and lightning or when going on holi-
day, disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.
8. Replacement Parts
When replacement parts are required, be sure the
service technician has used replacement parts which
are specified by the manufacturer or have the same
specifications as the original one. Unauthorized sub-
stitutions may result in fire, electrical shock, or other
hazards.
9. Servicing
Please refer all servicing to qualified personnel. Do
not remove the cover yourself as this may result in an
electric shock.
10. Waste Disposal
Instructions for waste disposal:
• Packaging and packaging aids are recyclable and
should principally be recycled. Packaging materials,
such as foil bag, must be kept away from children.
• Battery, including those which are heavy metal-free,
should not be disposed of with household waste.

tains a small amount of mercury; please follow local
ordinates or regulations for disposal.

be disposed at the end of life separately from your
household wastes. There are separate collection
systems for recycling in EU.

attached to the wall in accordance with the in-
stallation instructions when mounted to the wall

14. Connection to a television
distribution system (Cable TV etc.)
from tuner:
Apparatus connected to the protective earthing of
the building installation through the mains connection
or through other apparatus with a connection to pro-
tective earthing - and to a television distribution sys-
tem using coaxial cable, may in some circumstances
create a fire hazard.
To ground the antenna system properly, be sure that
the cable grounding is connected with the buildings
grounding system. Note that the connection should
follow IEC 60364-7-707 and IEC 603646-5-548 stan-

Note: Because FAV CVBS and SVHS Y are connected parallelly, the picture may blend if the two peripherals are used at the same
time. Likewise, because SVHS C and SCART II R are connected parallelly, the picture may blend if the two peripherals are used
at the same time. Thus these two are not to be used at the same time.
