Child Safety
Proper Television Placement Matters
The consumer electronics industry is committed to making home entertainment safe. All televisions, new and old, must be supported on proper stands or installed according to manufacturer recommendations. Improper placement on furniture like dressers, bookcases, or shelves can lead to tip-overs and injury.
Tune In To Safety
- Always follow manufacturer recommendations for safe installation.
- Always read and follow all instructions for proper use.
- Never allow children to climb on or play on the television or its furniture.
- Never place the television on furniture easily used as steps.
- Always install the television where it cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.
- Always route cords and cables so they cannot be tripped over, pulled, or grabbed.
Wall or Ceiling Mount Your Television
- Contact your retailer for professional installation if unsure about mounting.
- Always use a manufacturer-recommended mount certified by an independent laboratory (e.g., UL, CSA, ETL).
- Always follow instructions from both television and mount manufacturers.
- Ensure the wall or ceiling is appropriate for mounting; some mounts are not suitable for steel studs or cinder block construction. Consult a professional if unsure.
- Televisions are heavy; a minimum of two people is required for wall or ceiling mounting.
Moving an Older Television
When moving older CRT televisions, place them on sturdy furniture appropriate for their size and weight. Never place them on dressers where children might climb, and ensure they do not overhang the furniture edge.
Notices and Compliance
Trademarks
Trademarks are the property of Koninklijke Philips N.V. or their respective owners. Funai Corporation reserves the right to change products without prior notice.
Pixel Characteristics
LCD products may display occasional black dots or bright points of light due to the high pixel density. This is a structural property within industry standards and not a malfunction.
Warranty
No components are user-serviceable. Do not open covers. Repairs must be done by authorized service centers. Failure to do so voids the warranty. Unauthorized operations or assembly procedures also void the warranty.
FCC/IC Compliance
This equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits for uncontrolled environments and meets FCC RF Exposure Guidelines and IC RSS-102. The transmitter must not be co-located with any other antenna or transmitter. Operation is subject to two conditions: no harmful interference, and acceptance of any interference received. The 5150-5250 MHz band is restricted to indoor use.
Data transmission is initiated by software and the transmitter is only active during data transmission, automatically discontinuing when there is no information or an operational failure.
Positioning the TV
Large screen TVs are heavy; two people are recommended for handling. Ensure the unit is installed horizontally and stably, away from direct sunlight, dust, or strong vibrations. Avoid rapid temperature changes. Operating temperature range is 41°F (5°C) to 104°F (40°C). Do not place objects, especially lighted candles, on or under the unit. Ensure sufficient space between the TV and external devices to prevent noise or picture/sound disturbances. Connect all cables before plugging in the AC power cord. Ensure easy access to the AC power cord and outlet for disconnection. Unplug the AC power plug before moving or carrying the unit, and be careful not to pinch the cord.
Regulatory Notices
Stability Hazard
WARNING: To prevent injury, this apparatus must be securely attached to furniture/wall per instructions. Tipping, shaking, or rocking can cause injury or death. Never place a television in an unstable location. Take precautions like using recommended furniture, ensuring the TV is not overhanging, educating children about climbing dangers, securing cords, and anchoring furniture/TVs to suitable supports. Avoid placing the TV on unstable surfaces, tall furniture without anchoring, or on materials between the TV and furniture. Do not place tempting items for children on the TV or its furniture. If relocating an existing TV, apply the same safety considerations.
Do not place the unit on furniture that can be tilted by a child or adult. A falling unit can cause serious injury or death.
Ventilation
To avoid interrupting ventilation, do not place the unit in built-in equipment like cabinets or racks. Do not cover vents with tablecloths, curtains, or newspapers. Ensure at least 4 inches (10 cm) of ventilation space around the unit.
AC Power Plug
Press the power button to turn the unit on or enter standby mode. To completely turn off, unplug the AC power plug. Keep the AC plug readily accessible for disconnection during trouble or when not in use.
Never use a gas duster on this TV, as trapped gas may cause ignition and explosion.
