Regular maintenance, such as cleaning, is the responsibility of the user. To achieve
the best result, follow the instructions below. The Automatic Colour Management
automatically compensates for colour changes on the screen approximately every
100 hours of use.
Maintenance
Cautions
3D
Ventilation
Overheating
To watch films or other programmes suited for 3D, you must activate the 3D function and use the 3D glasses that
are available from your retailer. For more information, see the BeoSystem 4 guides, available on www.bang-
To ensure proper ventilation, allow at least 10 cm (4") of space at the top, bottom and sides. Do not cover the
ventilation holes on the rear, as this may cause the TV to overheat.
At over heating (flashing standby indicator and an on-screen warning), switch the TV to standby, not off, in order for
the TV to cool down. You cannot operate the TV during this time.
Automatic Colour Management
Automatic Colour Management ensures perfect
colours on the screen continuously. During
calibration, a sensor arm swings up from the TV
frame and an on-screen field changes between
various colours.
The calibration can be manual or automatic.
We recommend that you let the TV perform the
calibration automatically instead of manually. Do
not switch off the TV or disconnect it from the
mains during the calibration. For more information,
see the BeoSystem 4 guides, available on www.

• The TV is intended for indoor use in dry,
domestic environments only, and for use within
a temperature range of 10–40°C (50–105°F).
• If the TV has been exposed to temperatures
below 5°C (40°F), leave it at room temperature
and wait until the TV has regained normal room
temperature before it is connected to the mains
and switched on.
• The picture can be distorted at altitudes where
the air pressure is lower than 833 hPa
(approximately 1500 m (5000 feet) or higher.
• Do not place any items on top of the TV.
• Do not attempt to open the TV. Leave such
operations to qualified service personnel!
• Avoid placing the TV in direct sunlight or direct
artificial light, such as a spotlight.
• Connect all cables before connecting or
reconnecting any of the products in your system
to the mains.
• Do not leave the TV in contact with articles
containing rubber or PVC for long periods of time.
• Do not allow still pictures to be displayed on the
screen for an extended period of time, as this
can cause a permanent after-image to remain
on the screen.
Cabinet surfaces
Wipe dust off the surfaces using a dry, soft cloth.
To remove stains or dirt, use a soft, lint-free, firmly
wrung cloth, and a solution of water and mild
detergent, such as washing-up liquid. Never use
alcohol or other solvents to clean any parts of the TV.
Plasma screen
Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe dust off the screen.
Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
Avoid spraying liquid directly on the screen as this
may damage the speakers or other parts. Some
micro-fibre cloths may harm the optical coating
due to their strong abrasive effect.
