Precautions

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

Warning

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:
- ALWAYS use cabinets or stands or mounting
methods recommended by the manufacturer of the
television set.
- ALWAYS use furniture that can safely support the
television set.
- ALWAYS ensure the television set is not overhanging
the edge of the supporting furniture.
- ALWAYS educate children about the dangers of
climbing on furniture to reach the television set or its
controls.
- ALWAYS route cords and cables connected to your
television so they cannot be tripped over, pulled or
grabbed.
- NEVER place a television set in an unstable
location.
- NEVER 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.
- NEVER place the television set on cloth or other
materials that may be located between the television
set and supporting furniture.
- NEVER place items that might tempt children to
climb, such as toys and remote controls, on the top
of the television or furniture on which the television
is placed.
If your existing television set is being retained and
relocated, the same considerations as above should be
applied.
