Environments:
☐ Places that are hot, humid, or excessively
dusty; where insects may enter; where it
might be exposed to mechanical vibration,
near the source of naked flame, such as
lighted candle, which is placed on a TV. The
TV set shall not be exposed to dripping or
splashing and no objects filled with liquids,
such as vases, shall be placed on the TV.
Situations:
☐ Use when your hands are wet, with the
cabinet removed, or with attachments not
recommended by the manufacturer.
Disconnect the TV set from AC power
outlet and aerial during lightning storms.
Additional Safety DOs
and DON’Ts
MOISTURE
☐ Do not place liquid filled objects such as a
vase or potted plant on the TV.
☐ Do not use a power line
operated TV set near water;
for example, near a bathtub,
washbowl, kitchen sink,
laundry tub, wet basement or
near a swimming pool, etc.
☐ Do not install the TV in a
location where sulfur is
present (e.g., hot springs).
This may cause a fire, electric shock or
damage to your TV.
VENTILATION
The ventilation openings in the TV are
necessary to ensure reliable operation of the
TV and to protect it from overheating.
☐ Do not block or cover the
ventilation openings with
cloth or other materials.
☐ Never place the TV on a bed,
sofa, rug or other similar
surface where ventilation
openings may be blocked.
☐ Unless proper ventilation is
provided, the TV may accumulate dust and
cause damage.
☐ Never allow liquid or solid
objects to fall into the
ventilation openings.
☐ If any liquid or solid object falls inside the
TV, unplug the TV immediately and have it
checked by qualified service personnel
before operating it further.
☐ Never push objects of any kind into the TV
through the ventilation openings as they
may come in contact with dangerous voltage
points or short out parts that could result in
a fire or an electric shock.
Allow adequate space around the TV set to
ensure proper air circulation.
☐ Never place the TV in a
confined space, such as a
bookcase or built-in cabinet,
unless proper ventilation is
provided.
☐ There should be a clearance of at least 11
7/8 inches (30 cm) above the TV set and 4
inches (10 cm) on each side. If mounted on
the wall, allow at least 4 inches (10 cm) of
clearance at the bottom of the screen. (refer
page 4)
INSTALLATION
Apparatus connected to the protective earthing
of the building installation through the mains
connection or through other apparatus with a
connection to protective earthing - and to a
television distribution system using coaxial
cable, may in some circumstances create a fire
hazard. Connection to a television distribution
system therefore has to be provided through a
device providing electrical isolation below a
certain frequency range (galvanic isolator, see
EN 60728-11).
The TV set should be installed near an easily
accessible AC power outlet.
☐ Do not install the TV face up or down,
upside down or on its side.
☐ Do not install the TV in hot,
humid, excessively dusty
places or in areas with oily
smoke or steam (e.g., near a
stove or humidifier). Fire, electric shock, or
warping may occur.
☐ Do not install the TV in places
subject to extreme temperature,
such as in direct sunlight, near
a radiator or a heating vent.
The TV may overheat in such
conditions which can cause
deformation of the enclosure
and/or TV malfunction.
