Setting up your TV
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):
 A machine screw (screwed into the TV’s 
Table-Top Stand)
For KDL-60NX801, KDL-60/52/
46NX800 and KDL-46/40NX700
Use M4 × 16 screw
For KDL-55NX811, KDL-60/55/
46NX810, KDL-46/40NX711 and 
KDL-46/40NX710
Use M4 × 8 screw
 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.

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.

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 15). 
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.
