WARNING: Never place a television set on an unstable location. 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:

• Use cabinets or stands recommended by the

manufacturer of the television set.

• Only use furniture that can safely support the

television set.

• Ensure the television set is not overhanging the edge

of the supporting furniture.

• Do not place the television set on tall furniture

(for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television set to a suitable support.

• Do not place the television set on cloth or other

materials that may be located between the television set and supporting furniture.

• Please educate children about the dangers of

climbing on furniture to reach the television set or its controls.

• If your existing television set is being retained and

relocated, the same considerations as above should be applied.

Safety

• For your safety, this appliance is ﬁ tted with a

fused 3 pin mains plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced, ensure that any replacement is of the same amperage and approved with the BSI mark.

• Never try and replace the mains plug unless you have

adequate qualiﬁ cations and are legally authorised to do so. In the event that a replacement mains cable is required, contact the manufacturer for a suitable replacement.

• Never use the television if it is damaged in any way.

• Always place the television on a ﬂ at level surface

avoiding anywhere which may be subject to strong vibration.

• The ideal distance to watch the television is

approximately ﬁ ve times the length of the diagonal measurements of the TV screen.

• Ensure the television is not placed on top of the

power cable as the weight of the television may damage the cable and cause a safety hazard.

• Never place mobile phones, speakers or any

other device which may cause magnetic or radio interference, near the television. If interference is apparent, move the device causing the interference away from the television.

• To disconnect the set from the mains, remove the

mains plug from the socket.

• Ensure that the mains plug is always easily accessible.

WARNING: Excessive volume when using earphones and headphones can cause loss of hearing.

Important safety instruction

period of time

• TV/DVD menus: e.g. listings of DVD disc content.

surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth dipped in a soap and water solution or a weak detergent solution.

• Never use alcohol, paint thinner or benzene to clean

this unit.

• Before using a chemically treated cloth, read the

instructions that came with the cloth carefully.

Important information regarding use of video games, computers, captions or other  xed image displays

The extended use of  xed image program material can cause a permanent “shadow image” on the LCD/LED panel, also known as “screen burn”.

This “shadow image” can appear in the background during normal viewing. This type of irreversible LCD/LED panel deterioration can be limited by observing the following steps:

1. Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum suitable viewing level.

2. Do not display the  xed image for extended periods of time.

3. Turn the power o when not in use.

Examples of images that are more likely to cause “screen burn” are as follows (this is not an exhaustive list):

• TV channel logos: e.g. shopping channel logos and

pricing displays - especially if they are bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause ageing of the screen.

Securing the TV to a wall/wall mounting

SECURING THE TV TO A WALL

Securing the TV to a wall with anti-tip straps

For maximum security in the home, when using a TV with its stand, anti-tip straps should be ﬁ tted. These are available from supermarket websites and other websites and are an easy, inexpensive and effective way of ensuring your TV stays safely upright. Straps are designed to be attached to the rear of the TV and then tethered to the wall or the furniture the TV is stood on, these are ﬁ tted as follows.

A) Using one or both of the top wall-mounting holes and screws fasten one end of the fastening cord/s to the TV. (the screws are already supplied in the wall mounting holes)

B) Secure the other end of the fastening cord/s to your wall. (you will need screws/ﬁ xings suitable for your wall type - available separately from most DIY stores).

Note - Please ensure that children do not climb on the TV set.

The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents is urging people to take care with ﬂ at-screen televisions.

RoSPA stated in 2010 that “Toddlers are particularly at risk of pulling ﬂ at-screen televisions on to themselves. They are unsteady on their feet and are attracted by colourful television images.”

The risk is increased as televisions become lighter.

Wall mounting

IMPORTANT - Before drilling any holes in the wall ensure you are not drilling where there could be any electrical wires, water or gas pipes.

1) Remove the four screws located at the back of the TV set.

2) The wall mount can now be easily attached to the mounting holes, located on the back of the TV, using the same four screws removed.

For VESA wall mounting information please refer to the Technical Speciﬁ cation page.

For optimum viewing, if wall mounting the TV higher than eye level, the TV should be tilted downwards so that the TV’s screen is ‘face on’. See ﬁ g 1 and 2.
