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.

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.

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.
Analogue teletext
Analogue teletext services are the text information provided by the broadcasters. The features may vary depending on the broadcasters.
What is FASTEXT (FLOF) mode?
In FASTEXT mode, four differently coloured subjects are situated at the bottom of the screen. To access more information about one of these subjects, press the appropriately coloured button. This facility enables fast access to information on the subjects shown.
What is List mode?
In List mode, four differently coloured page numbers are situated at the bottom of the screen. Each of these numbers can be altered and stored in the TV’s memory.
