Child Safety Notice
Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new product, please keep these safety tips
in mind:
THE ISSUE
The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend and larger •
at displays are popular purchases. However, at panel displays are
not always supported on the proper stands or installed according to the
manufacturer’s recommendations.
Flat Panel displays that are inappropriately situated on dresser, bookcases, •
shelves, desks, speakers, chest or carts may fall over and cause injury.
HITACHI CARES!
The consumer electronics industry is commited to making home •
entertainment enjoyable and safe.
TUNE INTO SAFETY
One size does NOT t all. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations •
for the safe installation and use of your at panel display.
Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for proper use •
of this product.
Don’t allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television •
sets.
Don’t place at panel displays on furniture that can easily be used as •
steps, such as a chest of drawers.
Remember that children can become excited while watching a program, •
especially on a “larger than life” at panel display. Care should be taken
to place or install the display where it cannot be pushed, pulled over,
or knocked down.
Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the •
at panel display so that they cannot be pulled or grabed by curious
children.
WALL MOUNTING: IF YOU DECIDE TO WALL
MOUNT YOUR FLAT PANEL DISPLAY, ALWAYS:
Use a mount that has been recommended by the display manufacturer •
and/or listed by an independent laboratory (such as UL, CSA, ETL).
Follow all instructions supplied by the display and wall mount •
manufacturers.
If you have any doubts about your ability to safely install your at panel •
display, contact your retailer about professional installation.
Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the display is •
appropiate. Some wall mounts are not designed to be mounted to walls
with steel studs or old cinder block construction. If you are unsure,
contact a professional installer.
A minimum of two people are required for installation. Flat panel •
displays can be heavy.
