WARNING: Never place a television set on an
unstable location. A television set may fall,
causing serious personal injury or death. Many
injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided
by taking simple precautions such as:

• Use cabinets or stands recommended by the

manufacturer of the television set.

• Only use furniture that can safely support the

television set.

• Ensure the television set is not overhanging the

edge of the supporting furniture.

• Do not place the television set on tall furniture

(for example, cupboards or bookcases) without
anchoring both the furniture and the television
set to a suitable support.

• Do not place the television set on cloth or other

materials that may be located between the television
set and supporting furniture.

• Please educate children about the dangers of

climbing on furniture to reach the television set or its
controls.

• If your existing television set is being retained and

relocated, the same considerations as above should be
applied.

Safety

• For your safety, this appliance is fi tted with a fused

3 pin mains plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced,
ensure that any replacement is of the same amperage
and approved with the BSI mark.

• Never try and replace the mains plug unless

you have adequate qualifi cations and are legally
authorised to do so. In the event that a replacement
mains cable is required, contact the manufacturer for a
suitable replacement.

• Never use the television if it is damaged in any way.

avoiding anywhere which may be subject to
strong vibration.

• The ideal distance to watch the television is

approximately fi ve times the length of the diagonal

• Ensure the television is not placed on top of the

power cable as the weight of the television may
damage the cable and cause a safety hazard.

• Never place mobile phones, speakers or any

other device which may cause magnetic or radio
interference, near the television. If interference is
apparent, move the device causing the interference
away from the television.

Important safety instruction

Maintenance

• To clean your TV, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. If the

surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth dipped
in a soap and water solution or a weak detergent
solution.

• Never use alcohol, paint thinner or benzene to

clean this unit.

• Before using a chemically treated cloth, read the

instructions that came with the cloth carefully.

CAUTION: If water or other liquid enters the
television through the display panel surface,
a malfunction may occur.

• Time displays.

• Teletext: Do not view a stationary page for a long

period of time

• TV/DVD menus: e.g. listings of DVD disc content.

• Pause mode: Do not leave the TV in pause mode

for long periods of time, e.g. when watching DVDs
or videos.

Important: Once ‘shadow image/screen burn’
occurs, it will never disappear and is not
repairable under warranty.

How do I dispose of this product?

UK: Waste electrical products should not

be disposed of with household waste.
Please dispose of the product at a
designated collection point for recycling
of WEEE. For your nearest facilities, please
see www.recycle-more.co.uk or in store
for details.

ROI: Waste electrical products should
not be disposed of with household waste.
Separate disposal facilities exist. Check
with your local authority or retailer for
recycling advice.

Packaging

• The safest way to transport your item is in the

original box/packaging - please save your packaging
for this.

• You will need the original box/packaging in the

event of warranty/service repair or support. We are
unable to carry out warranty/service if you are unable
to package the item correctly.

Important information regarding use of video
games, computers, captions or other  xed image
displays

The extended use of  xed image program material can cause
a permanent “shadow image” on the LCD/LED panel, also
known as “screen burn”.

This “shadow image” can appear in the background during
normal viewing. This type of irreversible LCD/LED panel
deterioration can be limited by observing the following steps:

1. Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum
suitable viewing level.

2. Do not display the  xed image for extended periods
of time.

3. Turn the power o when not in use.

Examples of images that are more likely to cause “screen burn”
are as follows (this is not an exhaustive list):

• TV channel logos: e.g. shopping channel logos

and pricing displays - especially if they are bright and
stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less
likely to cause ageing of the screen.

Batteries

• Do not expose batteries to high temperatures,

excessive heat, prolonged sunshine or fi re as this may
cause leakage, explosion or ignition.
Observe the correct polarity when inserting batteries.

• Do not use different types of batteries together or

mix old and new batteries.

• Dispose of batteries in an environmentally

friendly way.

• Certain regions may regulate the disposal of

batteries. Please consult your local authority.

Securing the TV to a Wall/Wall Mounting

SECURING THE TV TO A WALL

Securing the TV to a wall with anti-tip straps

For maximum security in the home when using a TV with its stand anti-tip straps should be fi tted. These
are available from supermarket websites and other websites and are an easy, inexpensive and effective
way of ensuring your TV stays safely upright. Straps are designed to be attached to the rear of the TV and
then tethered to the wall or the furniture the TV is stood on.

Note - Please ensure that children do not climb on the TV set.

A) Using one or both of the top wall-mounting
holes and screws (the screws are already supplied
in the wall mounting holes) fasten one end of the
fastening cord/s to the TV.

The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents is urging people to take care with fl at-screen televisions.

RoSPA stated in 2010 that “Toddlers are particularly at risk of pulling fl at-screen televisions on to
themselves. They are unsteady on their feet and are attracted by colourful television images.”

The risk is increased as televisions become lighter.

B) Secure the other end of the fastening cord/s to
your wall. (you will need screws/fi xings suitable
for your wall type - available separately from most
DIY stores).

Wall Mounting

IMPORTANT - Before drilling any holes in the wall ensure you are not drilling
where there could be any electrical wires, water or gas pipes.

1) Remove the four screws highlighted that are supplied in the wall mounting
holes.

2) The wall mount can now be easily attached to the mounting holes on the
rear of the TV.

For VESA wall mounting information please refer to the Technical
Specifi cation page.

For optimum viewing, if wall mounting the TV higher than eye level, the TV should be tilted downwards
so that the TV’s screen is ‘face on’. See fi g 1 and 2.

g 1 fig 2

Important – If wall mounting this TV, only use the screws already provided in the wall mounting holes.
Using other screws which are longer could cause irreparable damage to internal parts.
