Safety instructions
Please read these safety precautions carefully before using the product.
WARNING
Do not place the TV and/or remote control in the following
environments:
• A location exposed to direct sunlight
• An area with high humidity such as a bathroom
• Near any heat source such as stoves and other devices that produce
heat
• Near kitchen counters or humidiers where they can easily be
exposed to steam or oil
• An area exposed to rain or wind
• Near containers of water such as vases
Otherwise, this may result in re, electric shock, malfunction or product
deformation.
Insert power cable plug completely into wall socket otherwise if not
secured completely into socket, re ignition may break out.
Ensure the power cord does not come into contact with hot objects such
as a heater. This may cause a re or an electric shock hazard.
Do not place a heavy object, or the product itself, on power cables.
Otherwise, this may result in re or electric shock.
Do not place the product where it might be exposed to dust. This may
cause a re hazard.
Mains Plug is the TV connecting/disconnecting device to AC mains
electric supply. This plug must remain readily attached and operable
when TV is in use.
Do not touch the power plug with wet hands. Additionally, if the cord
pin is wet or covered with dust, dry the power plug completely or wipe
dust o. You may be electrocuted due to excess moisture.
Make sure to connect Mains cable to compliant AC mains socket with
Grounded earth pin. (Except for devices which are not grounded on
earth.) Otherwise possibility you may be electrocuted or injured.

Bend antenna cable between inside and outside building to prevent
rain from owing in. This may cause water damaged inside the Product
and could give an electric shock.
When mounting TV onto wall make sure to neatly install and isolate
cabling from rear of TV as to not create possibility of electric shock /
re hazard.
Do not plug too many electrical devices into a single multiple electrical
outlet. Otherwise, this may result in re due to over-heating.
Do not drop the product or let it fall over when connecting external
devices. Otherwise, this may result in injury or damage to the product.

cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and
<
the television set to a suitable support.
• Not placing the television set on cloth or other materials that may
be located between the television set and supporting furniture.
• Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to
reach the television set or its controls.

Antenna isolator installation guide
(Depending on model)
Use this to install TV in a place where there is a voltage dierence
between TV Set and GND of antenna signal.
• If there is a voltage dierence between TV Set and GND of antenna
signal, the antenna contact might be heated and excessive heat
might cause an accident.
You can improve the safety when watching TV by eciently removing
power voltage from TV antenna. It is recommended to mount the
isolator to the wall. If it cannot be mounted to the wall, mount it on the
TV. Avoid disconnecting the antenna Isolator after installation. Before
starting, be sure that the TV antenna is connected.
