4: 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.
 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.
Consider the following measures when 
securing your TV to a Stand (not supplied).
1Secure the Stand for the TV.
Make sure the 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 Stand.
2Secure the TV to the Stand.
Use the optional hardware listed as 
follows (not supplied):
M4 machine screw (screwed into the 
TV’s Table-Top Stand)
A screw or similar (attach it to the 
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. 
The Sony Support Belt Kit is available as 
an optional accessory, depending on 
your TV model.
The length of the M4 machine screw 
differs depending on the rope or chain 
diameter. Please see below illustration.

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).
~
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.
5: Bundling the 
cables
Before bundling the cables, remove the 
cable holder from the AC cover. Reuse the 
cable holder to bundle the other cables.
~
Do not bundle the AC power cord together 
with other cables.
* When installing on the wall, attach the cable holder 
under the terminals.

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. If the Table-Top Stand is 
attached to the TV, the TV may require 
detaching the Table-Top Stand; see 
page 11 (Detaching the Table-Top Stand 
from the TV). 
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.
 See page 35 (Compatible Wall-Mount 
Bracket Information).
 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.
