●
Only using furniture that can safely support the television.
●
Ensuring the television is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.
●
Not placing the television 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.
■
