WARNING
Stability Hazard
A TV set may fall, causing serious personal injury or
death. Many injuries, particularly 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
TV set.
•
ALWAYS use furniture that can safely support the
TV set.
•
ALWAYS ensure the TV set is not overhanging the
edge of the supporting furniture.
•
ALWAYS educate children about the dangers of
climbing on furniture to reach the TV set or its
controls.
•
ALWAYS route cords and cables connected to
your TV so they cannot be tripped over, pulled or
grabbed.
•
NEVER place a TV set in an unstable location.
•
NEVER place the TV set on tall furniture (for
example, cupboards or bookcases) without
anchoring both the furniture and the TV to a
suitable support.
•
NEVER place the TV set on cloth or other
materials that may be located between the TV set
and supporting furniture.
•
NEVER place items that might tempt children to
climb, such as toys and remote controls, on the top
of the TV or furniture on which the TV is placed.
If the existing TV set is going to be retained and
relocated, the same considerations as above should
be applied.
The cable distribution system should be grounded
(earthed) in accordance with ANSI/NFPA 70. the
National Electrical Code (NEC), in
particular Section 820.93, Grounding of Outer
Conductive Shield of a Coaxial Cable.
This equipment is not suitable for use in locations
where children are likely to be present.
