Securing the TV to the Wall

Caution: Pulling, pushing, or climbing on the TV may cause the TV to fall. In particular,

ensure your children do not hang on or destabilize the TV. Doing so may cause the TV to tip

over, causing serious injuries or death. Follow all safety precautions provided in the Safety

Flyer included with your TV. For added stability and safety, you can purchase and install the

anti-fall device as described below.

To avoid the TV from falling

1. Put the screws into the clamps and firmly fasten them onto the wall. Confirm that the screws have been firmly

installed onto the wall.

✎

You may need additional material such as an anchor

depending on the type of wall.

✎

Since the necessary clamps, screws, and string are not

supplied, please purchase these additionally.

2. Remove the screws from the centre back of the TV, put the

screws into the clamps, and then fasten the screws onto the TV

again.

✎

Screw Specifications

• For a 19~28 inches: M4

• For a 32~50 inches: M8

3. Connect the clamps fixed onto the TV and the clamps fixed

onto the wall with a strong string and then tie the string tightly.

✎

NOTE

Wall

• Install the TV near to the wall so that it does not fall

backwards.

• The product colour and shape may

vary depending on the model.

• It is safe to connect the string so that the clamps fixed on

the wall are equal to or lower than the clamps fixed on the

T V.

• Untie the string before moving the TV.

4. Verify all connections are properly secured. Periodically check connections for any sign of fatigue for failure. If you

have any doubt about the security of your connections, contact a professional installer.
