WARNING
: Never place a television set in an unstable location. The television set may
fall, causing serious personal injury or death. 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 set.
•
Only using furniture that can safely support the television set.
•
Ensuring the television set is not overhanging the edge of the supporting
furniture.
•
Not placing the television set on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or
bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television set to a
suitable support.
•
Not placing the television set on cloth or other materials that may be located
between the television set and supporting furniture.
•
Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the
television set or its controls.
If you are retaining and relocating the television set that you are replacing with this
new set, you should apply the same precautions to the old set.
Preventing the TV from falling
1.
Using the appropriate screws, firmly fasten a set of
brackets to the wall. Confirm that the screws are firmly
attached to the wall.
– You may need additional material such as wall anchors
depending on the type of wall.
2.
Using the appropriately sized screws, firmly fasten a set of
brackets to the TV.
– For the screw specifications, refer to "Standard Screw"
in the table on the previous page.
3.
Connect the brackets fixed to the TV and the brackets
fixed to the wall with a durable, heavy-duty string, and
then tie the string tightly.
– Install the TV near the wall so that it does not fall
backwards.
– Connect the string so that the brackets fixed to the wall
are at the same height as or lower than the brackets
fixed to the TV.
