

foreign objects, such as hairpins, nails, paper, etc. Do not put the set into a bookcase or other enclosures in which

it would be poorly ventilated. Do not place it on carpet or a bed as low ventilation holes could become obstructed.

Do not set liquids, including flower vases and vessels filled with chemicals or water etc, on top of the unit as liquid

could get inside the unit. If a hazardous object falls inside the TV set, unplug immediately and call 1800HISENSE

To avoid damage to the power cord, never allow heavy objects such as the TV set itself to be placed on the power

cord. Keep cord away from radiating appliances. Do not allow cord to become knotted or tangled. Do not lengthen

the cord. When removing the power plug from the socket, always hold onto the plug, never pull by the cord.

This TV set must be connected to a mains power outlet with a protective earth connection. The MAINS plug or an

furniture and the television to a suitable support.
