B WARNING
• Dangerously high voltages are present inside the TV.
• TV operating voltage: 220 – 240 V AC.
• Do not plug in the power cord until you have completed making all other connections;
otherwise a minimum leakage current might flow through the antenna and other terminals to
ground.
• To avoid battery leakage and damage to the remote, remove the batteries from the remote if
you are not going to use it for several days. If any liquid that leaks from the batteries touches
you, immediately wash it away with water.
For your own safety, do not touch any part of the
TV, the power cord and the antenna cable during
lightning storms.

with the TV. Do not allow children to climb onto
it.

falls into it. Have it checked immediately by
qualified personnel only.
