Important Safety Instructions

IMPORTANT - Please read these instructions. All the safety and operating instructions
should be read before the appliance is operated.

Important Information - Regarding Use of
Video Games, Computers, Captions or Other
Fixed Image Displays

The extended use of fi xed image program material
can cause a permanent “shadow image” on the
LCD/LED panel.
This background image is viewable on normal
programs in the form of a stationary fi xed image. 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 viewing level.

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

3. Turn the power off when not in actual use.

Examples of images that you need to watch out for
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.

• 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.

HELPFUL ADVICE FOR FIRST TIME STAND INSTALLATION

When securing the self-tapping screw/s into the base of the stand (on fi rst installation) the screw/s will be
naturally tight as they create a thread in the plastic of the stand neck in order to support a TV of this size.

a) Ensure the cross head screw driver tip fi ts 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 they become very tight try loosening them slightly and then re-tightening them once again as this will
continue the process of creating the thread for the screws.

Detaching The Stand And Securing The TV
To A Wall

Detaching the Stand

To detach the stand please remove the 6 screws
highlighted then remove the stand neck and base
from the rear of the TV set.

6 x
ST (4x14)

Securing the TV to a Wall

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 of 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.

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)

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.

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 highlighted below.

2) The wall mount can now be easily attached to the mounting holes on the rear of the TV. These holes are
indicated in the picture below.

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’.

Important

As part of our ongoing development to reduce power
consumption, we have added an extra function to
this Television called ‘Home Mode’ (you will see
this during the fi rst time installation set up). Power
consumption using the Home Mode function is
approximately 25% lower than some other modes.
The picture brightness is reduced using the Home
Mode function. If this function is not suitable for your
viewing environment, you can select other modes as
necessary. (Please note, ‘Store mode’ is for optimum
default picture settings, however, power consumption
is approximately 25% higher than ‘Home Mode’).

Please refer to the user guide section ‘Picture
settings’ in order to change the mode to one that
maybe more suitable for your environment. There
is also a shortcut button on the remote control
called ‘P-Mode’ should you wish to change to
another mode.
