note:
• These are recommended minimum clearances only and are supplied in good faith and not a guarantee of
compliance with TV manufacturers' maximum allowable operating temperatures. Always comply with TV
manufacturers' requirements.
Electronic appliance temperatures must be validated at the time of installation as air flow
•
characteristics within the room can vary and maximum acceptable operating temperatures can vary from
appliance to appliance. Electronic appliances cannot be used where the electronic appliance temperature
exceeds the manufacturer's maximum allowable operating temperatures (see electronic appliance
manufacturer's specifications). Operating a television above the manufacturer's maximum allowable
operating temperature will result in premature failure.
• Mantel height and depth must conform to mantel clearance requirements specified in this manual, see
"minimum clearance to combustible mantel" section in installation manual.
• Electronic appliance temperatures may be further reduced by increasing the horizontal distance between
the front of the electronic appliance and the front edge of the mantel or by increasing dimension "A" or "B".
However, increasing the gap between the top of the mantel and the bottom of the electronic appliance
beyond the maximum recommended figure, typically results in higher temperatures. Minimum clearance
between the mantel and bottom of the electronic appliance should be maintained to allow air circulation
below and behind the electronic appliance.
