LOCATION
Position your set so that no bright light or sunlight falls directly onto the screen. Care should be taken not to
expose the set to any unnecessary vibration, moisture, dust or heat. Also, ensure that the set is placed in a posi-
tion to allow a free flow of air. Do not cover the ventilation openings on the back cover.
If you intend to mount the set to a wall, attach the wall mounting interface (optional parts) to the back of the set.
When you install the set using the wall mounting interface (optional parts), attach it carefully so it will not drop.
- Be sure to use screws and a wall mount that meet VESA standards.
- Using screws longer than those recommended might damage the product. 
- Using screws that do not meet VESA standards might either damage the product or result in it coming away from
the wall. We will not be held responsible for any damage resulting from failure to follow these instructions.

PREPARATION
SECURING THE SET TO THE WALL TO PREVENT FALLING
WHEN THE SET IS USED ON A STAND
We recommend that you set up the set close to a wall so it cannot fall over if pushed backwards. 
Additionally, we recommend that the set be attached to a wall so it cannot be pulled in a forward direction,
potentially causing injury or damaging the product. 
Caution: Please make sure that children don’t climb on or hang from the set. 
Insert the eye-bolts (or set brackets and bolts) to tighten the product to the wall as shown in the picture. 
* If your product has the bolts in the eye-bolts position before inserting the eye-bolts, loosen the bolts. 
* Insert the eye-bolts or set brackets/bolts and tighten them securely in the upper holes.
Secure the wall brackets with the bolts (sold separately) to the wall. Match the height of the bracket that is
mounted on the wall to the holes in the product. 
Ensure the eye-bolts or brackets are tightened securely.
Use  a  sturdy  rope  or  cord  (sold  separately)  to  tie  the  product.  It  is
safer to tie the rope so it becomes horizontal between the wall and the
product.
Image shown may differ from your set.
G GWhen moving the set, undo the cords first.
G
GUse a platform or cabinet strong enough and large enough to support the size and weight of the set.
G
GTo use the set safely make sure that the height of the bracket on the wall and the one on the set are the same.
