Children have died from furniture tip-over.
To reduce the risk of furniture tip-over:
⚫ALWAYS install tip-over restraint provided.
⚫FOR use with televisions weighing 80 lbs or less. Use with heavier televisions
may result in instability causing tip-over resulting in death or serious injury.
⚫NEVER allow children to stand, climb or hang on drawers, doors, or shelves.
⚫NEVER open more than one drawer at a time.
⚫Place heaviest items in the lowest drawers.
Use of tip-over restraints may only reduce, but not eliminate, the risk of
tip-over.

maximum load 70 in. (177.8 cm) diagonal flat-panel TV. The shelf maximum recommended weight
allowance is 50 lbs. (22.7 kg). Use with heavier televisions may result in instability causing tip over resulting

Death or serious injury may occur when children climb on audio and/or video equipment furniture. A remote

NEVER place toys, food, remote, etc. on top of the TV or TV furnishing.
ALWAYS use either the safety hardware as instructed or other wall anchoring device.
Relocating audio and/or video equipment to furniture not specifically designed to support audio and/or video
equipment may result in death or serious injury due to furniture collapse or over turning onto a child.
NEVER place a TV on furniture that is not intended to support a TV.
NEVER exceed the maximum size and weight of the TV shown in the instructions.
Be sure to refer to the TV warning label as shown in the instructions.
Overloading drawers and shelves may result in furniture that can break or sag, or tip-over which may result in
injury.
NEVER exceed the weight limits shown in the instructions.
Place the heavier items on lower shelves as far back from the front as possible.
Load the bottom surfaces first to avoid top-heavy furniture.
Moving furniture that is not designed to be moved or equipped with casters may result in injury or damage to
furnishings or personal property.
ALWAYS unload shelves and drawers, starting with the top surfaces, before moving.
NEVER push or pull furniture on carpet. Have a friend help lift properly to move and/or reposition it.
The stand is not meant as a seat and no one should be sitting or standing on the stand.
Clean the metal trim using a soft cloth, slightly dampened with citrus oil-based product and buff with a clean
soft cloth. DO NOT use brass polish or household cleaners as these products will damage the metal trim.
