Precautions

Read all of the instructions before operating the set. Keep these instructions well for future use.

Warning

Never place a television set in 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:

-- Using cabinets or stands recommended by the manufacturer of the television set.

-- Only using furniture that can safely support the television set.

-- Ensuring the television set is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.

-- Not placing the television set on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without

anchoring both the furniture and the television set to a suitable support.

-- Not placing the television set on cloth or other materials that may be located between the television set and supporting furniture.

-- Educating 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.

Product

Do not push objects of any kind into this unit through the cabinet slots as they could touch the current carrying parts or short-circuit parts, resulting in fire, electric shock, or damage to the unit.
