your fingers caught between the TV set and the stand.
Precautions
Viewing the TV
•
•
•
To view the TV comfortably, the recommended viewing
position is from four to seven times the screen’s vertical
length away from the TV set.
To obtain a clear picture, do not expose the screen to direct
illumination or direct sunlight. If possible, use spot
lighting directed down from the ceiling.
Optional Equipments
•
Do not install optional components too close to the TV set.
Keep optional components at least 30 cm away from the
TV set. If a VCR is installed in front of the TV set or
beside the TV set, the picture may become distorted.
Picture distortion and/or noisy sound may occur if the TV
set is positioned in close proximity to any equipment
emitting electromagnetic radiation.
View the TV in moderate light, as viewing the TV in poor
light or during long period of time, strains your eyes.
Volume adjustment
•
•
Adjust the volume so as not to trouble your neighbours.
Sound carries very easily at night time. Therefore, closing
the windows or using headphones is suggested.
•
When using headphones, adjust the volume so as to avoid
excessive levels, as hearing damage may result.
