To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do        The TV is unstable if it is not properly attached
not expose this product to rain or moisture.            to the base or mounted to the wall. Please
This product should not be exposed to dripping          follow the base or wall mounting instructions
or splashing. No objects filled with liquids, such      provided in the User’s Guide to ensure your

Warning: The batteries shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.
Refer to the identification/rating label located on the back panel of your product for its proper
operating voltage.
Cable TV Installer: This reminder is provided to call your attention to Article 820-40 of the National
Electrical Code (Section 54 of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1) which provides guidelines for proper
grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground should be connected to the grounding system
of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
Important: This television is a table model and is designed to sit on a firm, flat surface. Don’t place the
TV on soft carpeting or similar surface because the ventilation slots on the bottom of the unit will be
blocked, resulting in reduced lifetime from overheating. To assure adequate ventilation for this product,
maintain a spacing of 1 inch from the top and side of the TV receiver and 2 inches from the rear of the
TV receiver and other surfaces.
Also, make sure the stand or base you use is of adequate size and strength to prevent the TV from being
accidentally tipped over, pushed off, or pulled off. This could cause personal injury and/or damage to
the TV. Refer to the Important Safety Instructions on the next page.
The Power button on this TV and your remote control puts the TV into a very low-power standby mode
but will not completely turn the power off. In order to completely shut the power off, you will need to
disconnect the power cord from the outlet. The mains plug/appliance coupler is used to completely turn
off the device. If you prefer to completely turn off the device, you should install the TV in a manner that
allows you to disconnect the power cord when desired.

Step 1               Set up your TV
Ready for the step-by-step? You’re only minutes away from TV bliss!

Remove your TV from the box
Be careful, it’s heavy!
To use the stand
 A   To prevent damage to the screen, carefully
     place your TV on a soft, cushioned surface.
 B   Put the column of the stands into the TV, align the
     stands with the screw holes located on the TV.
 C   Secure the stands to the TV with four (4) screws.

To mount on a wall
If you are mounting your tv to the wall, don’t attach the stands.
                  To mount your TV to the wall, purchase a VESA wall mount
Models of 28” or 32” or 40” or 43” Purchase a VESA 100x100 mount (requires qty. 4 M4x12 screws)

Models of 49”                    Purchase a VESA 200x200 mount (requires qty. 4 M6x16 screws)


The VESA number is the horizontal and vertical measurement of the mounting holes. For
example, 200X200 refers to the fact that the mounting measurements are 200mm horizontally
and 200mm vertically.
Follow the instructions that come with the wall mount.
Your wall mount must be able to bear a minimum of five times the TV’s net weight to avoid
causing damage.
Warning:
Never place a television set in an unstable location. A television set may fall, causing serious
personal injury or death. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple
precautions such as:
 - Using cabinets or stands recommended by the manufacturer of the television set.
 - Only using furniture that can safely support the television set.
 - Ensuring the television set is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.
 - Not placing the television set on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases)
   without anchoring both the furniture and the television set to a suitable support.
 - Not placing the television set on cloth or other materials that may be located between
   the television set and supporting furniture.
 - Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television
   set or its controls.
If your existing television set is being retained and relocated, the same considerations as
above should be applied.

Connect other devices by referencing port label
and descriptions on the bottom of page 6.

    Power Tip! Always replace depleted batteries with two brand-new
    batteries from the same manufacturer. Never use damaged batteries.
