• Do not position the television near sources of heat like heaters
and radiators. Likewise do not position it near thermostats.

PRECAUTIONS REGARDING THE
REMOTE CONTROL
• For the remote contr
ol to operate efficiently
, always point the front
of the remote contr
ol directly at the infrar
ed sensor on the televisio-
n’s contr
ol panel ([26] Fig. 5
). Make sure that ther

in the path between the remote contr
ol and the sensor .
• If the remote contr
ol is not going to be used for any length of time
(e.g. a few weeks), remove the batteries fr
om the compartment at
the rear (
Fig. 3).
• When the remote contr
ol batteries run low, r
eplace both batteries
at the same time, not just one at a time.
• Replace the batteries if the functioning of the remote contr
ol beco-
mes less effective, i.e. if the range or the angle of operation beco-
mes restricted.
2.4
PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
• The packaging material that comes with your television conforms
to the latest standards for envir
onmental protection. If you have
enough spare r
oom, keep your television’s packaging at least for the
period of the warranty.
• If the remote contr
ol batteries are not “gr
een” (i.e. ecological) bat-
teries, when they run out, dispose of them in the proper way using
proper battery r
ecycling points. Never throw spent batteries into the
environment. Whenever possible, use mer
cury free batteries to help
protect the envir
onment.
