Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket,
or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold
with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use
caution when moving the cart/apparatus
combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

Never touch this apparatus or antenna during
a thunder or lighting storm.

Do not allow a impact shock or any objects to
fall into the product, and do not drop onto the

CAUTION concerning the Power Cord :
Most appliances recommend they be placed

Check the specification page of this owner's
manual to be certain.

Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall
outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension

appliance, and if its appearance indicates dam­age or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use
of the appliance, and have the cord replaced
with an exact replacement part by an authorized
servicer. Protect the power cord from physical
or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted,

kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked
upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall
outlets, and the point where the cord exits the
appliance.

tric shock, do not expose this appliance to rain

have no adverse effect on the monitor's performance.

Avoid touching the LCD screen or holding your finger(s) against it for long periods of time. Doing so may produce
some temporary distortion effects on the screen.

SECURING THE TV TO THE WALL FALL OVER.

This feature is not available for all models.
Here shown may be somewhat different from your TV.

■

Position the TV close to the wall to avoid the possibility of it falling when pushed.

■

The instructions shown below are a safer way to set up the TV, which is to fix it to the wall, avoiding the
possibility of it falling forwards if pulled. This will prevent the TV from falling forward and causing injury.
This will also prevent the TV from damage. Ensure that children do not climb or hang from the TV.

■

You should purchase necessary components to prevent TV from falling off of the stand.

■

Insert the eye-bolts (or TV brackets and bolts) to tighten the product to the wall as shown in the picture.

*If your product has the bolts in the eye-bolts position before inserting the eye-bolts, loosen the bolts.

Secure the wall brackets with the bolts (not provided as parts of the product, must purchase separately) to
the wall. Match the height of the bracket that is mounted on the wall to the holes in the product.

Ensure the eye-bolts or brackets are tightened securely.

■

Use a sturdy rope (not provided as parts of the product, must pur­chase separately) to tie the product. It is safer to tie the rope so it
becomes horizontal between the wall and the product.

NOTE

!

G

When moving the TV undo the cords first.

G

Use a platform or cabinet strong and large enough to support the size and weight of the TV.

G

To use the TV safely make sure that the height of the bracket on the wall and on the TV is the same.
