CAREFUL INSTALLATION

ADVICE

■ You should purchase necessary components

to fix the TV safety and secure to the wall on

the market.

■ Position the TV close to the wall to avoid the

possibility of it falling when pushed.

■ The instructions shown below are a safer way

to set up the TV, by fixing it to the wall, avoid-

ing the possibility of it falling forwards if pulled.

This will prevent the TV from falling forward

and causing injury. This will also prevent the

TV from damage. Ensure that children do not

climb or hang from the TV.

3

Use the eye-bolts or TV brackets/bolts to fix the

product to the wall as shown in the picture.

(If your TV has bolts in the eyebolts, loosen

then bolts.)

* Insert the eye-bolts or TV brackets/bolts and

tighten them securely in the upper holes.

Secure the wall brackets with the bolts on the

wall. Match the height of the bracket that is

mounted on the wall.

Use a sturdy rope to tie the product for align-

ment. It is safer to tie the rope so it becomes

horizontal between the wall and the product.

The TV is equipped with a Kensington Security

System connector on the back panel. Connect

the Kensington Security System cable as shown

below.

For the detailed installation and use of the

Kensington Security System, refer to the user’s

guide provided with the Kensington Security

System.

For further information, contact http://www.kens-

ington.com, the internet homepage of the

Kensington

company. Kensington sells security systems for

expensive electronic equipment such as note-

book PCs and LCD projectors.

NOTE

► When moving the TV undo the cords first.

► Use a platform or cabinet strong and large

enough to support the size and weight of the TV.

► To use the TV safely make sure that the height of

the bracket on the wall and on the TV is the

same.

NOTE

► The Kensington Security System is an optional

accessory.

► If the TV feels cold to the touch, there may be a

small “flicker” when it is turned on.

This is normal, there is nothing wrong with TV.

► Some minute dot defects may be visible on the

screen, appearing as tiny red, green, or blue

spots. However, they have no adverse effect on

the monitor's performance.

► Avoid touching the LCD screen or holding your

finger(s) against it for long periods of time.

Doing so may produce some temporary distor-

tion effects on the screen.

A-11

PREPARATION

■ The TV can be installed in various ways such as

on a wall, or on a desktop etc.

■ The TV is designed to be mounted horizontally.

EARTHING

Ensure that you connect the earth wire to prevent

possible electric shock. If grounding methods are

not possible, have a qualified electrician install a

phone wires, lightening rods or gas pipes.

WALL MOUNT: HORIZONTAL

INSTALLATION

■ We recommend the use of a LG Brand wall

mounting bracket when mounting the TV to a

NOTE

►Should Install wall mount on a solid wall per-

pendicular to the floor.

►Should use a special wall mount, if you want

to install it to ceiling or slanted wall.

►The surface that wall mount is to be mount-

ed on should be of sufficient strength to sup-

port the weight of TV set; e.g. concrete, nat-

ural rock, brick and hollow block.

►Installing screw type and length depends on

the wall mount used. Further information,

refer to the instructions included with the

mount.

►LG is not liable for any accidents or damage

to property or TV due to incorrect installa-

tion:

- Where a non-compliant VESA wall mount

is used.

- Incorrect fastening of screws to surface

which may cause TV to fall and cause per-

sonal injury.
