ventilation openings of the TV For
ventilation, leave a space of at least
10cm all around the set.
Take care not to place heavy
objects on the power lead as this
could result in damage.
We recommend you wind any
excess lead around the holders
provided on the rear of the TV.
Clean the TV with a soft, lightly
dampened cloth. Do not use
benzine, thinner or any other
chemicals to clean the TV. Do not
scratch the TV screen. As a safety
precaution, unplug the TV before

stand. Do not allow children to
climb on to it. Do not place the TV
on its side or face up.
Do not cover the ventilation
openings of the TV with items
such as curtains or newspapers
etc.
Additional Safety Information
•After transporting the projection TV directly from a cold to a warm location, or if the room temperature has changed suddenly,
pictures may be blurred or show poor colour over portions of the picture. This is because moisture has condensed on the mirrors
or lenses inside the projection TV. Let the moisture evaporate before using the projection TV.
•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.
•Displaying a still picture for long periods of time, for instance, when operating a video game or personal computer and viewing a
programme in 16:9 mode, may damage the picture tube. To avoid this, keep the picture contrast level low.
•Avoid touching the screen, and take care not to scratch the surface with hard objects.
