Warning Stability Hazard
A television may fall, causing serious personal injury
or death. Many injuries, particuIarly 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.
• The equipment is only suitable for mounting at
heights ≤2 m.
If the existing television set is going to be retained and
relocated, the same considerations as above should
be applied.

Apparatus connected to the protective earthing of the
building installation through the MAINS connection or
through other apparatus with a connection to protective
earthing – and to a television distribution system using
coaxial cable, may in some circumstances create a fire
hazard. Connection to a television distribution system
has therefore to be provided through a device providing
electrical isolation below a certain frequency range
(galvanic isolator) .

on the wall.

optional accessories, and be absolutely sure to
take steps to prevent the TV from falling off.
