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.
2Secure the TV to the Stand.
Use the optional hardware listed below (not 
supplied):
 M4 × 16 machine screw (screwed into the 
TV’s Table-Top Stand)
 A screw or similar (attach it to the TV 
stand)
 Rope or chain (strong enough to support the 
weight of the TV). Make sure that there is 
no excess slack in the rope or chain.
An alternative way to secure the TV is with an 
optional Sony Support Belt Kit.
~
Contact Sony Customer Support to obtain the 
optional Support Belt Kit by providing your TV 
model name.

3Anchor the TV to the Wall.
Anchor the TV to the wall by using bolts, wall 
anchor and chain (or rope).
~
Your TV is shipped with screws attached to the 
rear of the TV. (They are fastened in the screw 
holes for wall mounting.) Be sure to remove the 
upper two screws prior to anchoring the TV on a 
wall.
Securing the TV to the stand without securing the 
TV and the stand to the wall provides minimum 
protection against the TV toppling over. For 
further protection, be sure to follow the three 
measures recommended.
Organizing the AC power 
cord
~
After the AC power cord is thread as illustrated, 
place the bottom cover (for NX800 series only).

Setting up your TV
Using a Wall-Mount Bracket
Your TV can be mounted on a wall using a 
Wall-Mount Bracket (not supplied) out of the 
box as packaged. Some larger size TV may 
require detaching the Table-Top Stand; see 
“Detaching the Table-Top Stand from the TV” 
(page 14). 
Prepare the TV for the Wall-Mount Bracket 
before making cable connections.
For product protection and safety reasons, 
Sony strongly recommends that you use the 
Wall-Mount Bracket designed for your TV 
and the installation should be performed by 
a Sony dealer or licensed contractor.
 Follow the instruction guide provided with 
the Wall-Mount Bracket for your model. 
Sufficient expertise is required in installing 
this TV, especially to determine the 
strength of the wall for withstanding the 
TV’s weight.
 Be sure to use the screws supplied with the 
Wall-mount bracket when attaching the 
mounting hooks to the TV set.
The supplied screws are designed so that 
they are 8 mm to 12 mm in length when 
measured from the attaching surface of the 
mounting hook.
The diameter and length of the screws differ 
depending on the Wall-mount bracket 
model. Use of screws other than those 
supplied may result in internal damage to 
the TV set or cause it to fall, etc.
 Be sure to store the unused screws and 
Table-Top Stand in a safe place until you 
are ready to attach the Table-Top Stand. 
Keep the screws away from small children.
~
Read the supplied Safety Booklet for additional 
safety information.
Installing the TV Against a 
Wall or Enclosed Area
Make sure that your TV has adequate 
ventilation. Allow enough space around the TV 
as shown below. Avoid operating the TV at 
temperatures below 41 °F (5 °C).
~
Inadequate ventilation can lead to overheating of 
the TV and may cause damage to your TV or 
cause a fire.
