2. Setting up and safety notes
Setting up
When selecting a suitable place for the TV, be sure that no bright
light or sunlight falls on the screen. Light may cause reflections
and impair the brilliance of the image.
The best viewing distance is five times the picture tube diagonal,
e.g. about 1,8 m for TV sets with a 37 cm screen.
TV sets require adequate ventilation. The ventilation
slots at the rear of the set should therefore never be
covered by curtains, doilies, newspapers or similar
objects. Likewise, all slots at the bottom of the set
must be freely accessible so that the intake of air is
not impaired in any way.
If you place the set in a wall unit, leave sufficient
space on all sides so that the air can circulate freely.
Do not place
- burning candles or
- flower vases filled with water
on top of the TV set.
Hot wax and liquids destroy the electrical
components and jeopardize the electrical
safety of the set.
Your TV set is intended for use in dry rooms. If you
wish to use it occasionally outdoors, be sure to protect
it against any kind of moisture (rain, splashes, dew,
etc.). Do not use the TV set in damp rooms (e.g. in the
bathroom) or in the vicinity of a washbasin or washing
machine. Do not expose the set to moisture and water
splashes.

Do not set up the TV near a radiator as this would
impair adequate cooling.
Remove the mains plug from the outlet socket in the event
of thunderstorms and when the set is not to be used for a
prolonged period (e.g. when you are away on holiday).
The X-rays generated by this TV set are sufficiently shielded.
