Be careful, it’s heavy!
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.
If your existing television set is being retained and relocated, the same considerations as
above should be applied.
To prevent damage to the screen, carefully place your TV on a soft, cushioned surface.
To mount your TV on a wall, skip to page 6.
