Install TV on a stable surface
If a television is not positioned in a sufficiently stable location, it can be potentially hazardous due to
falling. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:
Using cabinets or stands recommended by the manufacturer of the television.
●
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.
