Important information regarding use of video

games, computers, captions or other fixed image
displays
The extended use of fixed image program material can cause
a permanent “shadow image” on the LCD/LED panel, also
known as “screen burn”.

This “shadow image” can appear in the background during

normal viewing. This type of irreversible LCD/LED panel
deterioration can be limited by observing the following steps:

1. Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum

suitable viewing level.
2. Do not display the fixed image for extended periods
of time.
3. Turn the power off when not in use.
Examples of images that are more likely to cause “screen burn”
are as follows (this is not an exhaustive list):
• TV channel logos: e.g. shopping channel logos and
pricing displays - especially if they are bright and
stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less
likely to cause ageing of the screen.

 Securing the TV to a wall/wall mounting

SECURING THE TV TO A WALL

Securing the TV to a wall with anti-tip straps
For maximum security in the home, when using a TV with its stand, anti-tip straps should be fitted. These
are available from supermarket websites and other websites and are an easy, inexpensive and effective
way of ensuring your TV stays safely upright. Straps are designed to be attached to the rear of the TV and
then tethered to the wall or the furniture the TV is stood on, these are fitted as follows.
A) Using one or both of the top wall-mounting B) Secure the other end of the fastening cord/s to
holes and screws fasten one end of the fastening your wall. (you will need screws/fixings suitable
cord/s to the TV. (the screws are already supplied in for your wall type - available separately from most
the wall mounting holes) DIY stores).

Note - Please ensure that children do not climb on the TV set.

The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents is urging people to take care with flat-screen televisions.
RoSPA stated in 2010 that “Toddlers are particularly at risk of pulling flat-screen televisions on to
themselves. They are unsteady on their feet and are attracted by colourful television images.”
The risk is increased as televisions become lighter.

Wall mounting
IMPORTANT - Before drilling any holes in the wall ensure you are not drilling where there
could be any electrical wires, water or gas pipes.

1) Remove the four screws located at the back of the TV set.

2) The wall mount can now be easily attached to the mounting holes, located
on the back of the TV, using the same four screws removed.

For VESA wall mounting information please refer to the Technical

Specification page.

For optimum viewing, if wall mounting the TV higher than eye level, the TV should be tilted downwards
so that the TV’s screen is ‘face on’. See fig 1 and 2.

Important – If wall mounting this TV, only use the screws already provided in the wall mounting holes.
Using other screws which are longer could cause irreparable damage to internal parts. When using a
wall bracket, please ensure the screws in the back of the TV set are not over tightened.
