Position the TV
In addition to reading and understanding the
safety instructions in Section 1.1, consider the
following before positioning your TV:
• The ideal viewing distance for watching TV
is three times its screen size.
•
Position the TV where light does not fall on
the screen.
•
Connect your devices before you position
your TV.
• Your TV is equipped with a Kensington
Security Slot at the back of the TV.
If connecting an anti-theft Kensington lock
(not supplied), position the TV within reach
of a permanent object (such as a table) that
can be easily attached to the lock.
• For the best Ambilight effect, position the
TV 10cm (four inches) to 20cm (eight
inches) away from the wall. Ambilight works
best in a room with dim lighting.
