3: Securing the TV
Sony strongly recommends
taking measures to prevent
the TV from toppling over.
Unsecured TVs may topple
and result in property
damage, serious bodily
injury or even death.
•
Secure the TV to a wall and/or stand.
•
Do not allow children to play or climb on
furniture and TV sets.
•
Avoid placing or hanging items on the
TV.
•
Never install the TV on:
- slippery, unstable and/or uneven
surfaces.
- furniture that can easily be used as
steps, such as a chest of drawers.
•
Install the TV where it cannot be pulled,
pushed, or knocked over.
•
Route all AC power cords and
connecting
cables so that they are not
accessible
to curious children.
Consider the following measures when
securing your TV to a Stand (not supplied).
