- Avoid overloading power sockets by connecting too many electronic components.
- Unplug the apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods.
- The SLEEP-MODE Power consumption is less than 0.5 W, indicating energy efficiency in standby.
- Ventilation: Ensure that ventilation slots on the back cover are not blocked. Maintain at least 5cm (2") clearance around the TV, especially if placed in a cabinet, to prevent overheating. No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the apparatus.

- Remove batteries from the remote control if it will not be used for a long period or if the batteries are exhausted to prevent leakage.
- Do not break open or throw exhausted batteries into a fire.
- Use AAA type batteries (alkaline, carbon-zinc, etc.) for best results.
- Install only new batteries of the same type and ensure correct polarity.
- Do not mix old and new batteries, or different types of batteries.
- Dispose of batteries according to state and local guidelines.
- Keep batteries away from children.
- Professional Servicing: Do not attempt to service the unit yourself, as there are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel, especially if the apparatus has been damaged (e.g., damaged power cord, spilled liquid, objects fallen into the apparatus, exposure to rain/moisture, or if it has been dropped or does not operate normally).
- Stability and Safety:
