injuries,particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:

Using cabinets or stands recommended by the manufacturer of the television.

Only using furniture that can safely support the television.

Ensuring the television is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.

Not placing the television on tall furniture(for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the
furniture and the television to a suitable support.

Not standing the televisions on cloth or other materials placed between the television and supporting furniture.

Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television or its controls.

General Safety Instructions (Cont.)

Installation

• Follow instructions: Only install this TV set in accordance with the

instructions in this manual. If a television is not positioned in a sufficiently
stable location, it can be potentially hazardous due to falling and causing
injury, particularly to children.

• This TV is equipped with standard wall-mounting points, and we recommend

that a wall bracket be installed between the TV and the wall to prevent
the TV from falling from a cabinet. (The bracket is not included.)

• To prevent injuries from your television falling, take a few simple precautions:

• Do not place the TV on tall furniture (e.g., on a cupboard or bookcase)
without anchoring both the furniture and the TV to a suitable support.

• Only use furniture that can safely support the television.

• Ensure the TV is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.

• Educate children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach TV
controls.

• Do not place the TV on cloth or other materials.

• When deciding on where to put the TV set, make sure the place is:

• Well ventilated, and away from damp and cold.

• Protected from overheating and away from direct sunlight.

• Away from moisture drips or splashes.

• Protected from excessive dust or grease.

• Bookcase: Do not install this equipment in a confined space such as a
bookcase or similar unit.

• Heat: Do not install the TV set near heat sources such as radiators, stoves
or other audio visual equipment (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

• Water: Do not place containers with liquids (such as vases) or with small
metallic objects on top of the unit. If liquid enters the unit or any metal
object falls into the unit, it may result in short-circuit, fire or electric shock.

• Fire or explosion: Do not use or store flammable or combustible materials
near the unit. Doing so may result in fire or explosion. Do not place any
naked flame sources, such as lit candles, cigarettes or incense sticks on
top of the TV set.

• Antenna: Install the antenna away from high-voltage power lines and
communication cables and make sure it is installed securely. If the antenna
touches a power line, contact with the antenna could result in fire, electric
shock or serious injury.

• Ventilation: Install the unit at an adequate distance from the wall to ensure
sufficient ventilation. If the temperature inside the unit rises, it may result in fire.

General Safety Instructions (Cont.)

Electrical safety and cord handling

• Voltage: Before installing this TV set, make sure your outlet voltage

corresponds to the voltage stated on the appliance rating label.

• Protect from moisture: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do
not expose this appliance to rain or moisture; do not use it anywhere near
water; do not touch the power plug with wet hands.

• Damage: Do not use a damaged power cord, plug or loose outlet. Doing so
may cause an electric shock.

• Power outlet: Do not plug several devices into the same outlet. Doing so
may cause the outlet to overheat and start a fire. Make sure the outlet is
readily accessible during operation of the equipment.

• Power plug: Make sure the plug is properly installed before inserting it fully
into the outlet. A loose or improperly inserted power plug may cause a fire.

• Protect the cord: Do not bend, twist or kink the power cord excessively.
Do not allow anything to rest on or roll over the power cord and antenna
cable. Doing so may cause a fire or an electric shock. Do not run the power
cord near heat-producing appliances such as radiators, stoves or irons. The
excessive heat could melt the insulation and expose live wires, resulting in
fire or electric shock.

• Disconnect: Always grasp the plug when disconnecting the power cord.
Pulling the cord can damage the internal wire and may cause a fire.

• Lightning storms: Unplug this TV during lightning storms or when unused
for long periods of time. Not doing so may result in fire or electric shock.

Usage conditions and restrictions

• Adjustments: Follow the instructions in this manual when installing and

adjusting the TV set. Only adjust those controls that are covered in this
manual, as improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage.
If this happens, unplug the TV set and have it serviced by appropriately
qualified personnel, or phone the after sales support line for advice.

• Ventilation: Do not cover the ventilation openings with items such as
newspapers, tablecloths, curtains etc. as this could impede ventilation.

• Cabinet slots: Do not insert objects of any kind into this unit through the
cabinet slots, as they could touch the current-carrying parts or short-circuit
parts, resulting in fire, electric shock or damage to the unit.

• Smoke or odour: If you notice any unusual odours or smoke around
the unit, immediately disconnect the unit from the outlet and contact the
service centre. Failure to do so may result in fire or electric shock.

General Safety Instructions (Cont.)

• When not in use: When not using the unit for long periods of time,
disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet. Dust could accumulate
over time on the unit and cause it to generate heat and ignite, or deteriorate
insulation, which in turn may result in an electrical fire.

• Moving: When moving the unit, be sure to turn it off and unplug it from the
wall outlet. Moving the unit with the power cord connected to the outlet
may cause damage to the cord, resulting in fire or electric shock.

• Batteries: When removing the batteries from the remote control, make sure
to keep them out of reach of infants and children. Seek medical attention
immediately if a child has swallowed a battery.

• Usage restriction: This product is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of ex­perience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruc­tions concerning use of the product by a person responsible for their safety.

• Children: Supervise young children to ensure they do not play with the TV.

Cleaning and maintenance

• Unplug: To reduce the risk of fire and electric shock, always unplug the TV

before cleaning.

• Cleaning: Only use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning the TV; do not use a damp
cloth. Never clean with industrial strength polish, wax, benzene, paint
thinner, air freshener, lubricant, detergent or other chemicals. Wipe off any
moisture, dirt or dust on the power plug pins with a clean, dry cloth.

• Repair: If the unit requires repair, contact the after sales support line; never
disassemble or modify the unit or attempt to service it yourself.

• Service: Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is
required when the TV has been damaged in any way, such as when the
power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the TV, when the TV has been exposed to rain or moisture,
does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

Installation

Your TV is packaged with the stand and the cabinet separated. Before using
the TV, install the stand as described below, or if you want to mount it to a
wall, see page 6 for mounting advice; the wall mount itself is not supplied.

IMPORTANT!

• Make sure the TV set is unplugged from the power supply before

installing or removing the stand.

• The TV panel may be awkward to install on your own. We recommend

you ask someone to help with installation and/or removal of the stand.

Attaching the stand

Step 1

Place a soft cushioned material
on top of a flat surface to prevent
damaging the screen panel. Then
place the TV monitor flat on top,
with the screen side facing down,
as illustrated on the right (1).

Step 2

Align the screw holes on the
stand and the bottom of the TV,
as illustrated on the right (2).

Step 3
Tighten the screws (supplied) with
a screwdriver to affix the stand
to the panel, as illustrated on the
right (3).

NOTE: Do not apply excessive
force as this may damage the
screw holes.
