Wall-hanging bracket
TY-WK3L2RW
Warning
Using other wall-hanging brackets, or installing a wall-hanging bracket by yourself has the risk of personal injury and product damage. In order to maintain the unit’s performance and safety, be sure to ask your dealer or a licensed contractor to secure the wall-hanging brackets. Any damage caused by installing without a qualified installer will void your warranty.
Carefully read the instructions accompanying optional accessories, and be 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 which will void your warranty.
Do not mount the unit directly below ceiling lights (such as spotlights or halogen lights) which typically give off high heat. Doing so may warp or damage plastic cabinet parts.
Take care when fixing wall brackets to the wall. Wall mounted equipment must not be grounded by metal within the wall. Always ensure that there are no electrical cables or pipes in the wall before hanging bracket.
To prevent fall and injury, remove the TV from its fixed wall position when it is no longer in use for an extended period of time.

This TV supports the GUIDE Plus+ system.
The Rovi branding partner will supply the rating information in the programme information and the recommended group in the Search list.
DVB and Analogue channels are displayed on the same TV Guide screen. [D] means DVB channel and [A] means Analogue channel. There will be no programme listings for Analogue channels.
When this TV is turned on for the first time, or the TV is switched off for more than a week, it may take some time before TV Guide is completely shown.

Note
As soon as you switch to a digital channel with links to a teletext service, software is downloaded in the background to enable the teletext function. This means that when switching to a digital channel, you should wait for approximately 5 seconds before pressing the TEXT button - this will allow the software to download. If you press the TEXT button before download is complete, it will be ignored and you will have to press the TEXT button again when the download is complete.
While navigating digital teletext, you will find there is a short delay when moving between pages while the page downloads. There is often a prompt shown somewhere on the page (for example “Loading”) to let you know that this is happening.
