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 12). 
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.

ventilation. Allow enough space around the 
TV as shown below. Avoid operating the TV at 
temperatures below 41 °F (5 °C).

the TV and may cause damage to your TV or 
cause a fire.
