Packaging
• The safest way to transport your item is in the original box/packaging - please save your packaging for this.
• You will need the original box/packaging in the event of warranty/service repair or support. We are unable to carry out warranty/service if you are unable to package the item correctly.
Important information regarding use of video games, computers, captions or other  xed image displays
The extended use of fi 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 fi xed image for extended periods of time.
3. Turn the power off when not in use.
Examples of images that are more likely to cause “screen burn” are as follows (this is not an exhaustive list):
Batteries
• Do not expose batteries to high temperatures, excessive heat, prolonged sunshine or fi re as this may cause leakage, explosion or ignition. Observe the correct polarity when inserting batteries.
• Do not use different types of batteries together or mix old and new batteries.
• Dispose of batteries in an environmentally friendly way.
• Certain regions may regulate the disposal of batteries. Please consult your local authority.

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 major retailers & 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)
Note: Please ensure that children do not climb on the TV set.
Note: When handling the set do not grip the LCD Panel.
Note: Do not pull the set when mounted on a bracket. If using a moveable bracket, adjust via the
bracket and not the 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.
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).
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 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.
fig 1 fig 2
Important – If wall mounting this TV, only use the screws already provided in the wall mounting holes. Using other screws which are longer could cause irreparable damage to internal parts. When using a wall bracket, please ensure the screws in the back of the TV set are not over tightened.

• One button record, if you decide you want to record the current programme.
• Easy recording from the 7 Day TV Guide.
Due to the nature of the product, it is necessary to use a high speed USB memory stick (as the TV reads from and writes to the memory stick at the same time, some memory sticks may not be suitable).
You can purchase high speed memory sticks from some computer stores, alternatively, we have a selection of tested and compatible memory sticks available to purchase directly from the Helpline/website.
Recommended Minimum Specifi cation - USB Memory Stick:
