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.
