Bang & Olufsen BeoVision 12 (Wall Bracket): Maintenance

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-olufsen.com/guides.

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.bang-olufsen.com/guides.

Cleaning instructions

Engl ish 9

•  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.
