Important Safety Instructions (Cont.)
• Protect the cord: Do not bend, twist or kink the power cord excessively. Do not allow
anything to rest on or roll over the power cord and antenna cable. Doing so may cause a
fire or an electric shock. Do not run the power cord near heat-producing appliances such
as radiators, stoves or irons. The excessive heat could melt the insulation and expose live
wires, resulting in fire or electric shock.
• Disconnect: Always grasp the plug when disconnecting the power cord. Pulling the cord
can damage the internal wire and may cause a fire.
• Disconnect device:
Where the mains plug or an appliance coupler is used as the
disconnect device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable.
• Lightning storms: Unplug the power cord and antenna cord during lightning storms or
when unused for long periods of time. Not doing so may result in fire or electric shock.
Before lightning storm events arrive, unplug to minimise risk of damage to your TV.
Installation
•
Follow instructions: Only install this TV in accordance with these instructions.
• Location: This TV is designed for indoor, fixed location use only. It must not be used in
portable or mobile applications as vibration or excessive forces may damage the unit.
• When
deciding on where to put the TV, make sure the place is:
• Well ventilated, and away from damp and cold.
• Protected from overheating and away from direct sunlight. (Total darkness or a
reflection on the picture screen can cause eyestrain. Soft and indirect lighting is
recommended for comfortable viewing.)
• Away from moisture drips or splashes.
• Protected from excessive dust or grease.
• WARNING: To prevent injury, this apparatus must be securely attached to the floor/wall in
accordance with the installation instructions.
• This TV is equipped with standard wall-mounting points, and
we recommend that a wall
bracket should be installed between the TV and the wall to prevent the TV from falling
from a cabinet.
(The bracket is not included.)
• If a television is not positioned in a sufficiently stable location, it can be potentially
hazardous due to falling and causing injury, particularly to children.
To prevent injuries from
your television falling, take a few simple precautions:
• Do not place the TV on tall furniture (e.g., on a cupboard or bookcase) without
anchoring both the furniture and the TV to a suitable support.
• Only use furniture that can safely support the television.
• Ensure the TV is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.
• Educate children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach TV controls.
• Do not place the TV on cloth or other materials.
• Bookcase: Do not install this equipment in a confined space such as a bookcase or similar
unit.
• Heat: Do not install the TV near heat sources such as radiators, stoves or other audio visual
equipment (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
