Important safety information (continued) • This set should only be connected to an 220-240V AC 50Hz mains power supply. Do not attempt to connect it to any other type of supply. • The socket outlet must be installed near the equipment and is easily accessible. • Do not open this unit. An attempt to repair the unit by a non-expert could be dangerous and potentially cause a fire hazard. All repairs must be carried out by qualified service personnel only. • Keep away from rodents. Rodents (and also cockatiels) enjoy biting electric flexes. They can cause a short circuit (fire hazard!) and receive a fatal electric shock. • Always hold the plug when disconnecting the unit from the socket outlet. Do not pull on flex. The flex can become overloaded and cause a short circuit. • Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the unit. • Set up unit so that no one will trip over the flex. • This unit is recommended to be installed on shock-free benches in order to avoid any danger from falling. • Take note that toddlers can pull the unit down from a table or cupboard by means of its flex. Children can hurt themselves when doing this. • Do not use the unit near heat sources. The casing and flex could be damaged by the intensity of the heat. • The screen is made of glass and can break if damage is done to it. Be careful when collecting sharp edged glass splitters. • If you intend to wall mount the unit, contact the shop where you purchased the unit for advice, and leave the installation work to professionals. Improper installation can cause damage and/or injuries. • When installing the set on a wall, allow at least 10 cm clearance between the rear of the set and the wall. Clearance of less than 10 cm will obstruct the vents and cause overheating to the interior of the set, resulting in faults or damage to the set. • Taking fall-prevention measures - If these measures are not taken, the unit can fall and cause damage and/or injuries. - Contact the shop where you purchased the unit to obtain full details of the measures. • When a TV stand is used, - Ensure the unit is fully on the stand and placed in the centre. - Do not leave the stand doors open. You could be hurt as a result of the unit falling or breaking, or your fingers being caught or jammed. Take extra precautions if you have children. • Avoid placing the unit on any surfaces that may be subject to vibrations or shocks. • To protect the unit during a thunder storm, unplug the AC power cord and disconnect the aerial. Caution: Do not touch the aerial connector. • When you leave your home for a long period of time, unplug the AC power cord for safety. • The unit becomes warm when in operation. Do not place any covers or blankets on the unit in order to prevent overheating. The ventilation holes should not be blocked. Do not set up near radiators. Do not place in direct sunshine. • When placing on a shelf, allow at least 10 cm clearance space around the whole unit. • The unit shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing, and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus. • Liquids spilled into the unit can cause serious damage. Switch the set off and disconnect the mains power supply, then consult a qualified service person before attempting to use the unit again. • Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day and drops of water form on the outside of the glass. In the same way, moisture may condense on this unit's internal optical pick-up lens, one of the most crucial internal parts of the unit. • Moisture condensation occurs in the following situations: - When you move the unit from a cold place to a warm place. - When you use the unit in a room where the heater was just turned on. - When you use the unit in an area where cold air from an air conditioner directly hits the unit. - When you use the unit in a humid place. • Never use the unit when moisture condensation may occur. • Using the unit when moisture condensation exists may damage its own internal parts and discs. Connect the power cord of the unit to the wall outlet, turn on the unit, remove the disc, and leave it for two or three hours. After two or three hours, the unit will warm up and moisture will be evaporated. Leaving the TV connected to the wall outlet will help prevent moisture condensation in the unit. • Never place hot objects or open flame sources, such as lighted candles or night lights, on or close to the TV. High temperatures can melt plastic and lead to fires. - 11 - 32BV702B_MB62_[GB]_(IB_INTERNET)_DVB-T_(3910UK)_10075897.indd 11 21.01.2012 17:54:36
