Welcome Thank you, TV equipment Cleaning for choosing a Loewe product. We are very happy to have you as a customer. This operating manual describes the maximum equipment. Functions marked by ✳ are not available in all TV sets. The illustrated menu contents may vary depending on the TV equipment. You can find out what equipment your TV has in the main information – ”Technical spec. of TV set”. Clean the TV set only with a damp, soft, clean cloth (never use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents).
For your own safety For your own safety and in order to avoid unnecessarily damaging your TV set, please read and observe the following safety instructions: • This TV set is designed exclusively for receiving and reproducing audio and visual (AV) signals. • It is designed for the home or office and may not be used in rooms with high humidity (e.g. bathroom, sauna) or a high concentration of dust (e.g. workshops).
For your own safety • You should never attempt to remove the rear panel of the TV yourself. The set operates with high voltages which could be fatal. Leave repairs and servicing of your TV set to authorized TV technicians. • Do not place the TV anywhere where it may be exposed to vibrations. Vibrations can lead to overloading of materials. • Due to the picture tube, TV sets have their centre of gravity fairly near to the front.
