Wall Mounting
IMPORTANT - Before drilling any holes in the wall ensure you are not drilling
where there could be any electrical wires, water or gas pipes.
1) Remove the four screws highlighted that are supplied in the wall mounting
holes.
2) The wall mount can now be easily attached to the mounting holes on the
rear of the TV.
For VESA wall mounting information please refer to the Technical
Specifi cation page.
For optimum viewing, if wall mounting the TV higher than eye level, the TV should be tilted downwards
so that the TV’s screen is ‘face on’. See fi g 1 and 2.
Important – If wall mounting this TV, only use the screws already provided in the wall mounting holes.
Using other screws which are longer could cause irreparable damage to internal parts.

SECURING THE TV TO A WALL
Note - Please ensure that children do not climb on the TV set.
Securing the TV to a Wall
For maximum security in the home when using a TV with its stand anti-tip straps should be fi tted. These
are available from supermarket websites and other websites and are an easy, inexpensive and effective
way of ensuring your TV stays safely upright. Straps are designed to be attached to the rear of the TV and
then tethered to the wall or the furniture the TV is stood on.
The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents is urging people to take care with fl at-screen televisions.
RoSPA stated in 2010 that “Toddlers are particularly at risk of pulling fl at-screen televisions on to
themselves. They are unsteady on their feet and are attracted by colourful television images.”
The risk is increased as televisions become lighter.
A)
Using one or both of the top wall-mounting
holes and screws (the screws are already supplied
in the wall mounting holes) fasten one end of the
fastening cord/s to the TV.
B)
Secure the other end of the fastening cord/s to
your wall. (you will need screws/fi xings suitable
for your wall type - available separately from most
DIY stores).
