1.1Safety
•Two people are required to lift and carry a TV that weighs more than 25 kilos (55lb). Improper handling of the TV can result in serious injury.
•To avoid short circuit, do not expose the TV, remote control or remote control batteries to rain or water.
•To avoid risk of fire or electric shock, do not place the TV, remote control or remote control batteries near naked flame sources (for example, lighted candles) and other heat sources including direct sunlight.
•Do not touch any part of the TV, power connector or antenna cable during lightning storms.
•Do not install the TV in a confined space such as a bookcase. Leave a space of at least 10cm (four inches) around the TV for ventilation. Be sure air flow is not obstructed.
•If mounting the TV on a flat surface, be sure to use only the supplied stand and to mount the TV on a level, solid surface. Do not move the TV if the stand is not properly screwed to the TV.
•Wall mounting of the TV should only be performed by qualified personnel.The TV must only be mounted on an appropriate wall bracket and on a wall that can safely hold the weight of the TV. Improper wall mounting can result in severe injury or damage. Do not attempt to wall mount the TV yourself.
•If the TV is mounted on a swivel base or swivel arm, ensure no strain is placed on the power cord when the TV is swivelled. Strain on the power cord can loosen connections and cause arcing or fire.
•Do not place the TV on the cord or anything else that can pinch the cord or loosen the mains plug. An improperly connected mains plug or damaged mains cord can cause arcing, fire or electric shock.
•Be sure that you have full access to the mains cord for easy disconnection of the TV from the mains.
•When disconnecting the TV from the mains, be sure to:
•Turn off the TV, then the mains power (if available).
•Unplug the mains cord from the mains socket outlet.
•Unplug the mains cord from the power connector at the back of the TV. Always pull the mains cord by the plug. Do not pull the mains cord.
