WARNING

Never place a television set in unstable or inclined
locations. A television set may fall, causing serious
personal injury or death. Many injuries, particularly
to children, can be avoided by taking simple pre­cautions such as;

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

• Only using furniture that can safely support the
television set.

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

circumstances create a re hazard. Connection to

a television distribution system has therefore to be
provided through a device providing electrical iso­lation below a certain frequency range (galvanic
isolator, see EN 60728-11)

WARNING

of personal injury and product damage. In order
to maintain the unit’s performance and safety, be
absolutely sure to ask your dealer or a licensed
contractor to secure the wall-hanging brackets.
Any damage caused by installing without a

qualied installer will void your warranty.

• Carefully read the instructions accompanying

optional accessories, and be absolutely sure to
take steps to prevent the TV from falling off.

• Handle the TV carefully during installation since
subjecting it to impact or other forces may cause
product damage.

• Take care when xing wall brackets to the wall.

Always ensure that there are no electrical cables
or pipes in the wall before hanging bracket.
