Safety information

Important - Please read these instructions fully before

installing or operating

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:

Warnings

• Television sets which weigh 20kg or more must be
lifted and carried by at least 2 people.

• This television does not contain any parts that are
serviceable by the user. In case of a fault, contact
the manufacturer or authorised service department.
Exposing the internal parts inside the TV may
endanger your life. The manufacturers guarantee
does not extend to faults caused by repairs carried
out by unauthorised third parties.

To prevent the spread of fi re, keep
candles or other open fl ames away
from this product at all times

• To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or damage
to the TV, do not expose it to dust, rain or moisture.
Never expose the TV to dripping or splashing and
do not place objects filled with liquids on or near
the TV.

• Do not connect any external devices (DVD player,
games console etc) when the TV is switched on.
Disconnect both the TV and device from the mains
before connecting. Only switch appliances on
when the connection process
is complete.

• Do not place the television in a confined space and
do not obstruct the ventilation openings at the rear
of the television.

• When installing on a wall, ensure the TV is at
least 5cm from the wall for ventilation.

• Always ensure that the TV’s ventilation openings
are not covered with items such as newspapers,
table-cloths, curtains, etc.

• Ensure this TV is used in moderate climates only.

• 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

• Dispose of this television and any components
including batteries in an environmentally friendly
manner. If in doubt, please contact your local
authority for details of recycling.

• For your safety, this appliance is fitted 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 qualifications 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.

If you require any technical guidance or find that your TV is not operating as intended, a simple solution can often be found in the Troubleshooting section of these instructions,

Safety information8

Safety information

Important - Please read these instructions fully before

installing or operating

• Always place the television on a flat level surface
avoiding anywhere which may be subject to
strong vibration.

• The ideal distance to watch the television is
approximately five times the length of the diagonal
measurements of the TV screen. 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.

• To Isolate the TV from the mains power, please use
the power switch located on the side, underside or
rear of the TV set.

• Ensure that the power switch on the unit and the
mains plug are always easily accessible.

WARNING: Excessive noise when using earphones and
headphones can cause loss of hearing.

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 fixed image
displays

The extended use of fixed 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.

• 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.

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

3. Turn the power off when not in use.

Examples of images that are more likely to
cause “screen burn” are as follows:

• 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.

• Teletext: Do not view a stationary page for a long
period of time

• Time displays.

• 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.

Helpful advice for first time stand installation

When securing the self-tapping screw/s into the base of the TV (on first installation) the screw/s may be naturally
tight as they create a thread in the plastic.

a) Ensure the cross head screw driver tip fits correctly into the head of the screw and that it is not too big or small.

b) Screw in all screws individually and partially before tightening all of the screws fully.

c) If the screws become very tight try loosening and re-tightening, this will continue the process of creating
the thread.

Securing the TV using anti-tip straps

For maximum security in the home, when using a TV with its stand, anti-tip straps should be fitted. 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, these are fitted as follows.

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 fasten one end of the fastening cord/s to the TV.

(the screws are already supplied in the wall mounting holes)

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

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

RoSPA stated in 2010 that “Toddlers are particularly at risk of pulling flat-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.

If you require any technical guidance or find that your TV is not operating as intended, a simple solution can often be found in the Troubleshooting section of these instructions,

Wall mounting

IMPORTANT: Before drilling any holes in the wall ensure you are not drilling where there could be any electric

wires, water or gas pipes.

1) Remove the four screws located at the back of the TV set.

2) The wall mount can now be easily attached to the
mounting holes, located on the back of the TV, using the
same four screws removed.

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.

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 fig 1 and 2 below.
