Operation Please read the following instructions carefully and follow them closely, they concern your personal safety and can affect the operation of your equipment. Television sets require ventilation to avoid overheating which can damage components. Make sure that the rear ventilation openings are not covered up by curtains, cloths, newspapers, etc. There must be enough room inside built­in units to allow cooling air to circulate freely. Do not install the set next to heating. The appliance is designed to operate in a dry room. Should you, for any special reason, wish to use it outdoors (e. balcony, veranda, tent, etc. ), always make sure it is properly protected against any form of moisture (dew, rain, splashing). Before turning on a cold set in a warm room, wait until any condensation on the screen has evaporated. Never open up the rear panel of the television set. Have your aerial installed by an authorised dealer or specialist. At the end of the evening TV programme or in the event of prolonged absence, you should switch off your set using the ON/OFF button. Even if the ON/OFF switch is in the OFF position, the set is not completely disconnected from the mains. To disconnect the set completely, pull out the mains plug. GB DO NOT OBSTRUCT VENTILATION OPENINGS. AVOID WATER, HEAT, DIRECT SUNLIGHT. Do not place audio loudspeakers next to your TV set as the magnets in the speakers may cause coloured patches on the screen. Remove the mains plug from the wall outlet in the following cases: 1. During thunderstorms. It is wise to disconnect the aerial plug too in this case...
