•Large screen TVs are heavy.Two people are required to carry and handle a large screen TV.
•Before you move the TV, disconnect the cables to prevent breakage.
In addition to reading and understanding the safety instructions (see ‘Safety’ on page 5), consider the following before positioning your TV:
•Ensure that you always have easy access to the power cord or plug to disconnect the TV from the power.

•The ideal viewing distance for watching TV is three times its screen size.
•Position the TV where light does not fall on the screen.
•Connect your devices before you position the TV.

There is a Kensington security slot at the back of the TV. If you connect a Kensington lock (not supplied), position the TV near a heavy or immovable object that you can attach the cable to.
