Thank you for buying this Kogan product. Please read all safety instructions before using your TV.

Stability Hazard

The television set may fall, causing serious personal injury or death. Never place a television set in an unstable location. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:

• ALWAYS use cabinets or stands or mounting methods recommended by Kogan.com
• ALWAYS use furniture that can safely support the television set.
• ALWAYS ensure the television set is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.
• ALWAYS educate children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television set or its controls.
• ALWAYS route cords and cables connected to your television so they cannot be tripped over, pulled or grabbed.
• NEVER place a television set in an unstable location.
• NEVER place the television set on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television set to a suitable support.
• NEVER place the television set on cloth or other materials that may be located between the television set and supporting furniture.
• NEVER place items that might tempt children to climb, such as toys and remote controls, on the top of the television or furniture on which the television is placed.

If your existing television set is being retained and relocated, the same considerations as above should be applied. To prevent injury, this television set must be securely attached to the floor/wall in accordance with the installation instructions.

If not using with base stands, use only a wall or ceiling mount which has been recommended by Kogan.com.

CAUTION

Keep small accessories out of reach of children so they are not mistakenly swallowed.

CAUTION: Connecting the power cord
