Chapter 1 Getting started
Important information
Safety
Ensure that your domestic mains supply voltage matches the
voltage indicated on the identification sticker located at the
back of your set.
The TV set's components are sensitive to heat.The
maximum ambient temperature should not exceed 35°
Celsius. Do not cover the vents at the back or sides of the TV
set. Leave sufficient space around it to allow adequate
ventilation. Install the appliance away from any source of heat
(fireplace, ...) or appliances creating strong magnetic or electric
fields.
Moisture in rooms where the set is installed should not
exceed 85% humidity. If you have to use the TV set outdoors,
do not expose it to rain or splashing water. Do not
place any object containing a liquid (vase, glass, bottle,
etc.) on or near the set. Moving the set from a cold place to a
warm one can cause condensation on the screen (and on
some components inside the TV set). Let the condensation
evaporate before switching the TV set on again.
If you intend to be away for a long period, switch the TV set
off at the on/off switch
. Even when off, some components
remain in contact with the mains electricity supply.To
completely isolate the set you must remove the plug from the
mains supply socket.
During thunderstorms, we recommend that you disconnect
the TV set from the mains and aerial so that it is not affected
by electrical or electromagnetic surges that could damage it.
For this reason, keep the mains and aerial sockets
accessible so they can be disconnected, if necessary.
Unplug the TV set immediately if you notice it giving off a
burning smell or smoke.You must never, under any
circumstances, open the TV set yourself, as you run the risk of
an electric shock in doing so.
Your TV set includes a high-performance electronic protection
system to prevent damage by external influences, such as ESD
(Electrostatic Discharge) or pollution on the mains power
supply (Mains Transients). In the event of such external
pollution, your TV set may shut down automatically, and you
may need to switch it back on again using the remote control
or the on/off switch
.
Work carried out by unqualified persons or modifications
to the high voltage may cause hazard. A set modified in this
way no longer meets the original specifications and should not
be switched on again.
Care
Use a glass-cleaning product to clean the screen and a soft
cloth and mild detergent to clean the rest of the set.
Dust the vents at the back and sides regularly. Using solvents,
abrasive or alcohol-based products could damage the TV set.
If an object or liquid enters inside the appliance, unplug it
immediately and have it checked by an authorised engineer.
THOMSON disclaims any liability if the TV set is not used
in accordance with this manual.

HELPLINE
Please respect the environment and the relevant regulations.
Before you dispose of batteries (or accumulators), ask your
dealer whether they require special recycling and if he is
able to take them back.
Before setting up your television set, make sure that
the surface you want to put the set on can support
its weight (see the list of specifications provided
with the booklet).
Don’t place the set on an unstable surface (e.g.
moving shelf, very edge of a unit) and make sure
that the front of the television set does not
overhang the surface it is sitting on.
