Safety precautions

Note: This TV set can operate on an AC power of 240V, 50Hz. You must not use a power supply of any other type.

When any unusual situation occurs, turn off the power supply at once and remove the plug from the wall outlet. Contact a qualified service department in your local area.

Do not expose the TV set to rain or excessive moisture. Avoid using the set in very warm or damp places and never use it in a bathroom.

When cleaning dust off the picture tube disconnect the power first. You can wipe lightly with a piece of dry, clean and soft cloth.

Avoid exposing the set to direct sunlight and other sources of heat to prevent damage to the cabinet and components.

High voltage exists in this TV set. Do not remove the cover.

2

Safety precautions

Do not cover the ventilating hole in the cabinet

Keep a space of more than 10cm from the walls to the

TV set to ensure adequate ventilation.

If the power cord or the plug is damaged contact a qualified service department for service.

When the TV set is to be left unattended for a long period of time, turn off the power supply and remove the plug from the wall outlet.

Don't try to push anything into the cabinet or place any vessel with water on the TV set.

Don't overload wall outlets; extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

Notes:

It is recommended that the 75-ohm coaxial cable be used to eliminate interference and noise which may occur due to radio wave conditions.

The aerial cable should not be bundled with the power cord and the like.

Troubleshooting Guide

Reception disturbances

Most types of television interference can be remedied by adjusting the height and position of the VHF/UHF antenna.

Outdoor antennas are recommended for best results if not using cable. The most common types of television interference are shown below. If one of these symptoms appear when the TV is connected to a Cable TV system, the disturbance may be caused by the local cable company broadcast.

IGNITION:

Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, picture, may flutter or drift.

Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electric drills and other electric appliances.

GHOSTS:

Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is the direct path and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills or other objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve the reception.

SNOW:

If your receiver is located in the fringe area of a television station where the signal is weak, your picture may be marred by the appearance of small dots.

When the signal is extremely weak, it maybe necessary to install an external antenna to improve the picture.

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE:

This interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks, and in some cases, causes loss of contrast in the picture.

PICTURE SIZE VARIATION:

A slight picture size variation is quite normal when you adjust the

CONTRAST or BRIGHTNESS setting.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect your unit from the AC power source when cleaning. The finish on the receiver may be cleaned with a dust cloth and cared for as other furniture. Use caution when cleaning and wiping the plastic parts. Mild soap and a soft, damp cloth may be used.
