4: Securing the TV

Sony strongly recommends
taking measures to prevent
the TV from toppling over.
Unsecured TVs may topple
and result in property
damage, serious bodily
injury or even death.
Preventing the TV from
Toppling
• Secure the TV to a wall and/or stand.
• Do not allow children to play or climb on
furniture and TV sets.
• Avoid placing or hanging items on the
TV.
• Never install the TV on:
– slippery, unstable and/or uneven
surfaces.
– furniture that can easily be used as
steps, such as a chest of drawers.
• Install the TV where it cannot be pulled,
pushed, or knocked over.
• Route all AC power cords and
connecting cables so that they are not
accessible to curious children.
Recommended Measures
to Secure the TV
Consider the following measures when
securing your TV to a Stand (not supplied)
or floor.
1
Secure the Stand for the TV.
Make sure the Stand can adequately
support the weight of the TV. Use two
angle braces (not supplied) to secure
the stand. For each angle brace use the
appropriate hardware to:
• Attach one side of the angle brace to
the wall stud.
• Attach the other side to the Stand.
2
Secure the TV to the Stand or floor.
Use the optional hardware listed as
follows (not supplied):
• M4 machine screw (screwed into the
TV's Floor Stand)
• A screw or similar (attach it to the
Stand or floor)
• Rope or chain (strong enough to
support the weight of the TV). Make
sure that there is no excess slack in
the rope or chain.
