How to insert batteries in the remote control
Push and lift the battery cover on the back of the remote control. Use two UM4 / AAA / IEC R03 1.5V batteries
for the remote control. Insert the batteries according to the polarity illustration inside the battery compartment.
Make sure + matches + and – matches –.
Remote control operation may
become erratic if direct sunlight,
fluorescent lamp, standard
household lamp (incandescent) or
any other strong light source shines
on the remote sensor on your TV.
NOTES:
The batteries may last approximately
one year depending on how much
the remote control is used. For best
performance it is recommended that
batteries are replaced on a yearly
basis, or when remote control
operation becomes erratic.
Make sure there are no obstacles
between your TV and the remote
control.
Do not mix old and new batteries or
different types.
Dispose of them in a designated
disposal area.
Do not operate your TV from a
distance greater than 5 metres.
Do not operate your TV away from
the normal viewing angle; over 30o
either side of the remote sensor on
your TV.
Weak batteries can leak and
severely damage your remote
control. Always remove batteries
immediately they become weak, or
if your television is not to be used
for a long time.

Cleaning the screen and cabinet...
If stationary images generated by TELETEXT,
CHANNEL IDENTIFICATION LOGOS, COMPUTER
DISPLAYS,VIDEO GAMES,ON SCREEN MENUS,
etc.are left on the TV screen for any length of time, they
could become permanently ingrained.
Turn off the power, clean the screen and cabinet with a

proprietary polishes or solvents on the screen or
cabinet as this may cause damage.
If you use your television to display completely still
images, or moving pictures which have a permanent still
image superimposed e.g. broadcast network logos, it is
always advisable to reduce BOTH the brightness and
contrast settings.
