  8.  Ventilation — The vents and other openings in the cabinet are designed for ventilation.

     Do not cover or block these vents and openings since insufficient ventilation can cause overheating and/or shorten the life 

of the product. Do not place the product on a sofa, rug or other similar surface, since they can block ventilation openings. 

Do not place the product in an enclosed place such as a bookcase or rack, unless proper ventilation is provided or the

 11.  Overloading — Do not overload AC outlets or extension cords. Overloading can cause fire or electric shock.

 12.   Entering of objects and liquids — Never insert an object into the product through vents or openings. High voltage flows in 

the product, and inserting an object can cause electric shock and/or short internal parts.

    For the same reason, do not spill water or liquid on the product.

 13.   Servicing — Do not attempt to service the product yourself. Removing covers can expose you to high voltage and other 

dangerous conditions. Request a qualified service person to perform servicing.

parts specified by the manufacturer, or those with the same characteristics and performance as the original parts. Use of 

unauthorized parts can result in fire, electric shock and/or other danger.

 16.   Safety checks — Upon completion of service or repair work, request the service technician to perform safety checks to 

ensure that the product is in proper operating condition.

If a monitor is not positioned in a sufficiently stable location, it can be potentially hazardous due to falling. Many injuries, 

particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:

• Using fixing devices like wall mount brackets recommended by the manufacturer.

• Only using furniture that can safely support the monitor.

• Ensuring the monitor is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.

•  Not placing the monitor on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the 

monitor to a suitable support.

• Not standing the monitors on cloth or other materials placed between the monitor and supporting furniture.

• Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the monitor or its controls. 

- Don’t allow children to climb on or play with the monitor.

- Don’t place the monitor on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers.

-  Remember that children can become excited while watching a program, especially on a “larger than life” monitor. Care 

should be taken to place or install the monitor where it cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.

-  Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the monitor so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by 

curious children.
