Assembly instructions

Step 1 Determine whether your TV has a flat back or an irregular or obstructed 
back

1

Carefully place your TV screen face-down on a cushioned, clean surface to protect the screen from damages 

and scratches.

2

If your TV has a table-top stand attached, remove the stand. See the documentation that came with your TV 

for instructions.

3

Temporarily lay the vertical mounting TV brackets (

A

 and 

B

) on the back of your TV.

4

Temporarily slide the horizontal brackets (

C

) through the vertical brackets (

A

 and 

B

). 

5

Align the screw holes in the brackets with the mounting screw holes on your TV. 

6

Position the brackets so they do not extend above or below your TV and do not cover any connectors or 

jacks. Make note of which bracket screw holes you will use. 

• If the brackets lay flush against the back of your TV and do not block any jacks, your TV has a 

flat back

 

and you do not need spacers.

• If a bracket blocks any jacks, your TV has an 

obstructed back

. In that case, you need spacers.

• If there is a gap between a bracket and some part of the back of your TV, your TV has an 

irregularly-shaped back

. In that case, you need spacers.

7

Remove the brackets, then separate the horizontal brackets from the vertical brackets.

Flat back (no spacers needed)

Obstructed back (spacers needed)

Irregular back (spacers needed)
