Secure the stand to the TV tightly. Place the TV on a flat, level surface that can support the weight of the TV. • When mounting the TV on a wall, ensure that the wall mount can safely bear the weight of the TV set.

Risk of overheating! Always leave a space of at least 10 cm around the TV for ventilation. Ensure curtains or other objects never cover the ventilation slots on the TV.
