Getting Started
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 37 (Compatible optional 
accessories 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.

Read the supplied Safety Booklet for 
additional safety information.
