Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive Contents 3 4 Contents CAUTION: Safety Instructions Read and follow these instructions when connecting and using your TV to help ensure your own personal safety and to protect your TV from potential damage. CAUTION: Use of controls, adjustments, or procedures other than those specified in this documentation may result in exposure to shock, electrical hazards, and/or mechanical hazards. · When connecting your TV to your computer, to help avoid damaging your computer, be sure that the voltage selection switch on the power supply for the computer is set to match the alternating current (AC) power available at your location: ­ ­ · 115 volts (V)/60 hertz (Hz) in most of North and South America and some Far Eastern countries such as Japan, South Korea (also 220 volts (V)/60 hertz (Hz)), and Taiwan. 230 volts (V)/50 hertz (Hz) in most of Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East. Always be sure that your TV is electrically rated to operate with the AC power available in your location. NOTE: This TV does not need or have a voltage selection switch for setting the AC voltage according to the ranges defined in the Owner's Manual. · · · · · Never insert anything metallic into the TV openings. Doing so may create the danger of electric shock. To avoid electric shock, never touch the inside of the TV. Only a qualified technician should open the TV case. Never use your TV if the power cable has been damaged. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cable. Keep the power cable away from where people could trip over it. Be sure to grasp the plug, not the cable, when disconnecting the TV from an electric socket. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and third grounding prong. The wide blade or third prong are provided for your safety. When the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet. Openings in the TV cabinet are provided for ventilation. To prevent overheating, these openings should not be blocked or covered. Avoid using the TV on a bed, sofa, rug, or other soft surface, as doing so may block the ventilation openings in the bottom of the cabinet. If you place the TV in a bookcase or an enclosed space, be sure to provide adequate ventilation and air flow. Place your TV in a location with low humidity and minimum dust. Avoid places similar to a damp basement or dusty hallway. Do not expose the TV to rain or use it near water (in kitchens, next to swimming pools, etc.). If the TV accidentally gets wet, unplug it and contact Dell immediately. You can clean the TV with a damp cloth when necessary, being sure to unplug the TV first. · · · Product Information Guide 5 www.dell.com | support.dell.com · Place the TV on a solid surface and treat it carefully. The screen is made of glass and can be damaged if dropped or hit sharply. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table capable to adequately support your TV. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/ TV combination to avoid injury from tip-over. Contact Dell for mounting accessories. · · · · Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time. Locate your TV near an easily accessible electric outlet. If your TV does not operate normally - in particular, if there are any unusual sounds or smells coming from it unplug it immediately and contact Dell. Do not attempt to remove the back cover, as you will be exposed to an electrical shock hazard. The back cover should only be removed by qualified service personnel. · · · High temperatures can cause problems. Don't use your TV in direct sunlight, and keep it away from heaters, stoves, fireplaces, and other sources of heat. Unplug your TV from the electric outlet before any service is performed. Damage Requiring Service -- The appliance should be serviced by qualified service personnel when: ­ ­ ­ ­ ­ The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the appliance The appliance has been exposed to rain The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged. · · · Tilt/Stability -- All televisions must comply with recommended international global safety standards for tilt and stability properties of its cabinets design. Do not compromise these design standards by applying excessive pull force to the front, or top of the cabinet which could ultimately overturn the product. Do not place electronic equipment/toys on the top of the set. As such items could unsuspectingly fall from the top of the set and cause product damage and/or personal injury. 6 Product Information Guide · · · Wall or Ceiling Mounting -- The TV should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer. Power Lines --- An outdoor antenna should be located away from power lines. Outdoor Antenna Grounding -- If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electric Code. ANSI/NFPA No.70-1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mats and supporting structure grounding of the lead-in wire to and antenna-discharge unit, size of grounding connectors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and requirements for the grounding electrode. Example of Antenna Grounding as per National Electrical Code (NEC) Ground Clamp Antenna Lead in Wire Antenna Discharge Unit (NEC section 810-20) Grounding Conductors (NEC section 810-21) Electric Service Equipment Ground Clamp Power service grounding electrode system (NEC Art 250 , Part H ) · See the limited warranty section for service of your TV. Servicing is required when the TV has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into TV the TV has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped. Keep these instruction. Heed all warning. Clean only with a dry cloth. This TV is for entertainment use only and visual display tasks are excluded from scope of use. · · · · NOTE: This note is for cable TV installers, Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system fo the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical. Product Information Guide 7 www.dell.com | support.dell.com Regulatory Notices Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) is any signal or emission, radiated in free space or conducted along power or signal leads, that endangers the functioning of a radio navigation or other safety service or seriously degrades, obstructs, or repeatedly interrupts a licensed radio communications service. Radio communications services include but are not limited to AM/FM commercial broadcast, television, cellular services, radar, air-traffic control, pager, and Personal Communication Services (PCS). These licensed services, along with unintentional radiators such as digital devices, including computers, contribute to the electromagnetic environment. Electromagnetic Compatibility is the ability of items of electronic equipment to function properly together in the electronic environment. While this TV has been designed and determined to be compliant with regulatory agency limits for EMI, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference with radio communications services, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, you are encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: · · · · Reorient the receiving antenna. Relocate the TV with respect to the receiver. Move the TV away from the receiver. Plug the TV into a different outlet so that the TV and the receiver are on different branch circuits. If necessary, consult a Dell Technical Support representative or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. A Notice About Shielded Signal Cables: Use only shielded cables for connecting devices to any Dell device to reduce the possibility of interference with radio communications services. Using shielded cables ensures that you maintain the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility classification for the intended environment. For parallel printers, a cable is available from Dell.
