supplied with the apparatus.
This information shall be given in a language acceptable to the country where the apparatus is intended to be used.
The important safety instructions shall be entitled “Important Safety Instructions”. The following safety
instructions shall be included where applicable, and, when used, shall be verbatim as follows. Additional safety
information may be included by adding statements after the end of the following safety instruction list. At the
manufacturer’s option, a picture or drawing that illustrates the intent of a specific safety instruction may be
placed immediately adjacent to that safety instruction:

appliance, and if its appearance indicates dam-
age or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use
of the appliance, and have the cord replaced
with an exact replacement part by an authorized
servicer. Protect the power cord from physical
or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted,
kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked
upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall
outlets, and the point where the cord exits the
appliance.

SECURING THE TV TO THE WALL TO PREVENT FALLING
PREPARATION
We recommend that you set up the TV close to a wall so it cannot fall over if pushed backwards.
Additionally, we recommend that the TV be attached to a wall so it cannot be pulled in a forward direction,
potentially causing injury or damaging the product.
Caution: Please make sure that children don’t climb on or hang from the TV.
Insert the eye-bolts (or TV brackets and bolts) to tighten the product to the wall as shown in the picture.
*If your product has the bolts in the eye-bolts position before inserting the eye-bolts, loosen the bolts.
* Insert the eye-bolts or TV brackets/bolts and tighten them securely in the upper holes.
Secure the wall brackets with the bolts (not provided as parts of the product, must purchase separately) to
the wall. Match the height of the bracket that is mounted on the wall to the holes in the product.
Ensure the eye-bolts or brackets are tightened securely.
Use a sturdy rope (not provided as parts of the product, must pur-
chase separately) to tie the product. It is safer to tie the rope so it
becomes horizontal between the wall and the product.
You should purchase necessary components to prevent TV from falling off of the stand.
Image shown may differ from your TV.
GUse a platform or cabinet strong enough and large enough to support the size and weight of the TV.
GTo use the TV safely, make sure that the height of the bracket on the wall and the one on the TV are
the same.
