Safety Precautions

Important Installation Notices
Install the TV on a stable surface
If a television is not positioned in a sufficiently stable location, it can be potentially hazardous due to falling. 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.
Only using furniture that can safely support the television.
Ensuring the television is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.
Not placing the televisions on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television to a suitable support.
Not standing the televisions on cloth or other materials placed between the television and supporting furniture.
Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television or its controls.
When cleaning the TV, remove the mains plug
Cleaning an energised TV may cause electric shock.
Remove the mains plug from the wall socket when the TV is not in use for a prolonged period of time
This TV will still consume some power even in the Off mode, as long as the mains plug is still connected.
Do not apply strong force or impact to the display panel
This may cause damage resulting in injury.
Do not block the rear air vents
Adequate ventilation is essential to prevent failure of electronic components.
Ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation openings with items such as newspapers, table cloths and curtains.
We recommend that a gap of at least 10 cm is left all around this TV even when placed inside a cabinet or between shelves.
When using the pedestal, keep the space between the bottom of the TV and the surface where the TV is set.
If pedestal is not used, ensure the vents in the bottom of the TV are not blocked.

Warning
When optional accessories such as wall brackets etc. are used, always read and follow the manufactures installation and usage instructions.
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.
When installing wall brackets you must ensure the wall bracket is not electrically grounded to metal wall studs. Always ensure that there are no electrical cables, pipes etc. in the wall before you begin the wall bracket installation.
To prevent fall and injury, remove the TV from its fixed wall position when it is no longer in use.
