Maintenance

• To clean your TV, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth dampened with a weak detergent solution.

Important information regarding use of video games, computers, captions or other fixed image displays

The extended use of fi xed image program material can cause a permanent "shadow image" on the LCD/LED panel, also known as "screen burn".

This "shadow image" can appear in the background during normal viewing. This type of irreversible LCD/LED panel deterioration can be limited by observing the following steps:

1. Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum suitable viewing level.
2. Do not display the fixed image for extended periods of time.
3. Turn the power off when not in use.

Examples of images that are more likely to cause "screen burn" are as follows (this is not an exhaustive list):

- TV channel logos: e.g. shopping channel logos and pricing displays - especially if they are bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause ageing of the screen.

• Time displays.
• Teletext: Do not view a static page for a long period of time
  • TV/DVD menus: e.g. listings of DVD disc content.
• Pause mode: Do not leave the TV in pause mode
  for long periods of time, e.g. when watching DVDs or videos.

Important: Once 'shadow image/screen burn' occurs, it will never disappear and is not repairable under warranty.

Straps are designed to be attached to the rear of the TV and then tethered to the wall or furniture the TV is stood on, these are fitted as follows.

A) Using one or both of the top wall-mounting holes and screws fasten one end of the fastening cord/s to the TV. (the screws are already supplied in the wall mounting holes)

B) Secure the other end of the fastening cord/s to your wall. (you will need screws/fi xings suitable for your wall type - available separately from most DIY stores).

Note: Please ensure that children do not climb on the TV set.
Note: When handling the set do not grip the LCD Panel.
Note: Do not pull the set when mounted on a bracket. If using a moveable bracket, adjust via the bracket and not the set.

The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents is urging people to take care with flat-screen televisions. RoSPA stated in 2010 that “Toddlers are particularly at risk of pulling fl at-screen televisions on to themselves. They are unsteady on their feet and are attracted by colourful television images.”

The risk is increased as televisions become lighter.

Wall mounting

IMPORTANT - Before drilling any holes in the wall ensure you are not drilling where there could be any electrical wires, water or gas pipes.

Simple line drawing of a rectangular device with a red circle highlighting the top section (no text or symbols)

1) Remove the four screws located at the back of the TV set.
2) The wall mount can now be easily attached to the mounting holes, located on the back of the TV, using the same four screws removed.

Note:

This diagram to the left is an example of screw positions. Due to model variations, please ensure you check your TV for the exact location of the wall mounting screw positions.

UPDATING SOFTWARE

There are a number of ways in which the software on your set can be updated. When your set is produced, the software installed will ensure the correct operation of the set, this may need to be updated should improvements be made and this is normally carried out automatically if the set is connected to the internet.

Note: For further support with software updates, contact our technical support team or refer to the 'Product Support' section of the website. If the television is using the newest software available it will not attempt to update the software.

If your set is outside of guarantee and the installation of the software causes a different issue you may be liable for a chargeable repair service. The reason for this is because you may have a fault which can cause corruption on one of the boards when installing the software. This could result in your unit locking into SAFE mode whereby it is stuck in standby. This is not a fault with the software, this would be caused by an existing faulty board that would have required a repair.
