Recommendations and Precautions  
1.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  
damagecomponents.Makesure thatthe rear ventilation openingsare  
not covered up by curtains, cloths, newspapers, etc. There must be  
enoughroom inside built–in units to allow cooling air to circulate freely.  
Do not install the set next to heating.  
Theapplianceis designedtooperatein adry room.Shouldyou, forany  
special reason, wish to use it outdoors (e.g. balcony, veranda, tent,  
etc.), always make sure it is properly protected against any form of  
GB  
moisture (dew, rain, splashing).  
DO NOT OBSTRUCT VENTILATION OPE-  
NINGS.  
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.  
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.  
AVOID WATER,  
HEAT,  
DIRECT SUNLIGHT.  
2. If you notice any odour or smoke coming from your set.  
Additional information:  
Your TV set is adequately shielded to prevent X–ray emission.  
Acceleration voltage does not exceed the maximum value of 26 kV.  
Work by unqualified technicians, modification of the high–voltage  
setting or replacement of the tube with a model that does not comply  
with the manufacturer’s specifications can lead to a considerable  
increase in X–ray emission.  
Do not place audio loudspeakers next to  
your TV set as the magnets in the speakers  
may cause coloured patches on the  
screen.  
A set changed in any of the above ways no longer complies with the  
manufacturer’s specifications and should not be put back into service.  
2. Cleaning  
The screen should be cleaned using liquid window cleaner.  
Never use abrasive cleaners.  
Clean the front and cabinet using a soft cloth dipped in mild detergent. The use of solvents such as white spirit or  
alcohol–based products may damage your set.  
Make sure to clean the vents at the rear of your set regularly.  
3. Demagnetisation  
The earth’s magnetic field may affect your television set, causing coloured patches to appear on the screen.  
If this happens:  
Switch off the set using the ON/OFF button.  
Wait about an hour and then switch on again using the ON/OFF button.  
This operation demagnetises the screen automatically. If coloured patches are still visible, repeat the procedure.

To tune the channel reserved for your video recorder, start up the recorder then carry out MANUAL  
CHANNEL SETTING operations.  
Store at any programme ending with a 9 (9,19,29, etc.)  
Each time you use the video recorder, switch to the channel assigned to it.

To use the connected device, select the audiovisual programme by pressing the av button.  
This selection is automatic for some devices.  
AV is displayed at the bottom of the screen.  
If you have an S-VIDEO device, press the av button again. S-VIDEO is then displayed at the bottom  
of the screen for a few seconds.  
When you switch off the device and if you have not changed channel during play, the TV set  
automatically returns to the previous channel.  
If the TV set has been switched on by the video recorder, it will be placed on stand–by when the video  
recorder is switched off.

These are used to connect a VHS or 8 mm camcorder.  
Press the av button to select the audiovisual programme to view your recordings.  
When you switch off the connected device, the TV set remains in audiovisual (AV) mode.
