Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new product, please keep these safety tips
in
mind:
THE ISSUE
• The home theater entertainment experience
is
a growing trend and larger flat panel
displays are popular purchases. However, flat panel displays are not always supported
on the proper stands or installed according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
• Flat panel displays that are inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves,
desks, speakers, chests or carts may
fall
over and cause injury.
THIS MANUFACTURER CARES!
• The consumer electronics industry
is
committed to making home entertainment enjoyable
and safe.
TUNE
INTO SAFETY
• One size does NOT
fit
all.
Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for the safe
installaticn and use of your flat panel display.
• Carefully read and understand
all
enclosed instructions for proper use of this product.
• Don't allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television sets.
• Don't place flat panel displays on furniture that can easily be used
as
steps, such
as
a chest of drawers.
• Remember that children can become excited while watching a program, especially
on a "larger than life" flat panel display. Care should be taken to place or install the
display where
it
cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.
• Care should be taken to route
all
cords and cables connected to the flat panel
display so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children.
WALL MOUNTING: IF YOU DECIDE
TO
WALL
MOUNT
YOUR FLAT
PANEL DISPLAY, ALWAYS:
• Use a mount that has been recommended by the display manufacturer and/or listed
by
an
independent laboratory (such
as
UL,
CSA,
ETL).
• Follow
all
instructions supplied by the display and wall mount manufacturers.
•
If
you have any doubts about your ability to safely install your flat panel display,
contact your retailer about professional installation.
• Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the display
is
appropriate. Some
wall mounts are not designed to be mounted to walls with steel studs or old cinder
block construction.
If
you are unsure, contact a professional installer.
• A minimum of two people are required for installation. Flat panel displays can be
heavy.
