SECURING THE TV TO A WALL
Securing the TV to a wall with anti-tip straps
For maximum safety in the home, when using a TV with its stand, anti-tip straps should be fi tted. These
are available from major retailers & 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 furniture the TV is stood on, these are fi tted as follows.
A) Using one or both of the top wall-mounting
holes and screws fasten one end of the fastening
cord/s to the TV. (The screws are already supplied
in the wall mounting holes)
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).
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.
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 located at the back of the TV set.
2) The wall mount can now be easily attached to the mounting holes,
located on the back of the TV, using the same four screws removed.
Note: This diagram to the left is an example of screw positions. Due to
model variations, please ensure you check your TV for the exact location of
the wall mounting screw positions.
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 the internal parts. When using
a wall bracket, please ensure the screws in the back of the TV set are not over tightened.
Note: Please ensure that children do not climb on the TV set.
Note: When handling the set do not grip the LCD Panel.
Note: Do not pull the set when mounted on a bracket. If using a moveable bracket, adjust via the
bracket and not the set.
