??? Don???t place flat panel displays 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??? flat panel display. Care should be taken to place or install the display where it cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.
??? Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the flat panel display so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children.
WALL MOUNTING: IF YOU DECIDE TO WALL MOUNT YOUR FLAT PANEL
DISPLAY, ALWAYS:

Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments
???When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, office), the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed. This is not a malfunction, and the unit will recover when the temperature returns to normal.
???Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a heater, as this may cause the cabinet to deform and the Liquid Crystal panel to malfunction.
