Preventing Equipment From Falling Over - Pioneer PDK-1013 Mode D'emploi

Preventing Equipment from Falling Over

After installing the stand, be sure to take special care to ensure that the Plasma Display will not fall over.
Stabilizing on table or floor
Stabilize the equipment as shown in the diagram using
screws that are available on the market.
Note
To stabilize the Plasma Display on a
table or on the floor, use screws
that have a nominal diameter of 6
mm (1/4 inch) and that are at least
20 mm (13/16 inch) long.
Caution
• A table or an area of the floor with adequate strength
should always be used to support the Plasma Display.
Failure to do so could result in personal injury and
physical damage.
• When installing the Plasma Display, please take the
necessary safety measures to prevent it from falling or
overturning in case of emergencies, such as
earthquakes, or of accidents.
• If you do not take these precautions, the Plasma
Display could fall down and cause injury.
• The screws, hooks, chains and other fittings that you
use to secure the Plasma Display to prevent it from
overturning will vary according to the composition and
thickness of the surface to which it will be attached.
• Select the appropriate screws, hooks, chains and other
fittings after first inspecting the surface carefully to
determine its thickness and composition and after
consulting a professional installer if necessary.
