play video and audio signals.
All other uses are expressly prohibited.

tected from moisture such as rain or splashing
water.

When deciding where to put the device, re-
member that furniture is often coated with vari-
ous types of varnish and plastic. Many of these
contain chemicals which can corrode the feet
of the device, leaving marks on the surface of
the furniture which can be difficult or impossi-
ble to remove.

The screen of your LCD television meets
the highest quality standards and has been
checked for pixel faults.
Despite the great care taken in manufacturing,
technological reasons make it impossible to
completely discount the possibility that some
pixels may be faulty.
Provided they are within the thresholds speci-
fied by the DIN norm, pixel faults of this kind
cannot be regarded as a defect as defined by
the warranty.

To ensure fires do not occur,
always keep candles and other
open flames away from the device.
