Use the appropriate stand or entertainment center to support the weight, shape and size of your TV (and other electronic components).

O Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for proper use of this product. • Do not allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television sets. O Don't place TVs on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers. • Avoid placing any items in top of your TVs that may stimulate a child's curiosity.
