Getting started

Step 1. Attach stand or mount

Before you start using your TV, attach your TV stand or mount it on the wall.

CAUTION:

  • The LED display on your TV is fragile. Make sure the TV screen is not scratched or damaged by hard objects or from pressure.

Attach the TV stand

To attach the TV stand legs to your TV:

  1. Carefully place your TV face down on a clean, soft, flat surface.
  2. Insert the TV Base Stand into the bottom slots on your TV.
  3. Use the screws provided to secure each leg tightly.

Note: If your table is long enough to place the TV on top of, then insert the base stands into the screw holes ‘A’ that are shown in the illustration. If your table is NOT long enough, then insert the base stand into the screw holes ‘B’ that are shown in the illustration. Note that these two installation methods types cannot be mixed.

CAUTION:

  • When you attach the mount, be sure to use spacers (provided by the third-party manufacturer) between the TV and the bracket.
  • To prevent internal damage to the TV and to ensure it is mounted securely, be sure to use fixing screws (not included) that are 9.5 - 11.5 mm in length when measured from the attaching surface of the rear cover.

Follow instructions provided with the wall mount bracket.
