							16 Securing the TV
Sony strongly recommends taking measures to prevent the TV from toppling over. 
Unsecured TVs may topple and result in property damage, serious bodily injury or even 
death.
Preventing the TV from Toppling
❑Secure the TV to a wall and/or stand.
❑Do not allow children to play or climb on furniture and TV sets.
❑Avoid placing or hanging items on the TV.
❑Never install the TV on:
 slippery, unstable and/or uneven surfaces.
 furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers.
❑Install the TV where it cannot be pulled, pushed, or knocked over.
❑Route all AC power cords and connecting cables so that they are not accessible to curious children.
Recommended Measures to Secure the TV
Consider the following measures when securing your TV to a TV stand (not supplied).
1Secure the stand for the TV.
Make sure the TV stand can adequately support the weight of the TV. Use two angle braces 
(not supplied) to secure the stand. 
For each angle brace use the appropriate hardware to:
 attach one side of the angle brace to the wall stud.
 attach the other side to the TV stand.
