Precautions

Read all of the instructions before operating the set. 

Keep these instructions well for future use.

Warning

Never place a television set in an unstable location. A 

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.

applied.
