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.

●
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.
