Cautions concerning installation work

To achieve the best possible performance and to maintain safety, always request a

certified professional for the installation of the wall mounting bracket. The stand of

the wide-screen LCD television must be removed.

Before performing work, always turn off the power and disconnect the power plug of the

AC adapter from the wall outlet.

Allow sufficient strength for safety.

The weight of the wide-screen LCD television is approximately 5.0 kg.

When mounting on a wall, perform work so that it can withstand the weight of the tele-

vision and so that the bracket will not come loose from vibration, etc.

Reinforce the bracket if the mounting section strength is insufficient.

The television may fall if the installation is insufficient or if the screws are loose.

● Wall surface strength

Wall surface material

Plywood................... Thickness of at least 20 mm is required.

Concrete.................. Thickness of at least 55 mm is required.

* Use reinforcing plate or bar if the wall surface material is < board, plasterboard,

particle board, > concrete, etc., or if there is not enough mounting strength due to

aging, etc.

Use the supplied cable clampers to fix cables. Never fix cables using staples.

Cautions concerning installation location

■ Avoid places with vibration and mount on a vertical surface with no vibration or shock.

■ Do not imbed the wide-screen LCD television, cover or block the vent holes. For the

usage environment, the ambient temperature must be in the range of 5˚C ~ 35˚C, and

humidity must be in the range of 5% ~ 90%.

■ Keep the wide-screen LCD television away from magnets, heat, steam, lampblack, etc.

■ Install in a location where the main unit power switch can be easily accessed and

where the signals from the remote control may easily reach the television (about 6 m

from the front).

■ About the installation location

For the installation location of the wide-screen LCD television, thoroughly consult the

following items with the customer.

● The wide-screen LCD television is best viewed directly from the front.

● Avoid areas where the florescent lighting reflects on the wide-screen LCD television

surface. Although vertical angles can be adjusted, the

mounting bracket does not move horizontally.

●

For the installation height, do not exceed the range of the con-

nection cords (AC adapter, antenna, etc.).

Be sure to install in a location where the AC adapter is not sus-

pended and where it can be placed on the floor, table, etc.

● Install where there are no objects within 20 cm below the

wide-screen LCD television.

● Check the installation height, depth, wall structure, etc., before performing installa-

tion work.
