Securing the TV and the TV
Stand
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 and the TV
Stand from toppling
• Secure the TV to a wall and/or board.
• 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 and the TV Stand
Consider the following measures when securing your
TV to a board (not supplied).
1 Secure the board for the TV.
Make sure the board can adequately support the
weight of the TV. Use two angle braces (not
supplied) to secure the board. 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 board.
2 Secure the TV to the board.
Use the optional hardware listed below (not
supplied):
• M4 × 16 machine screw (screwed into the TV Stand)
• A screw or similar (attach it to the board)
• 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.
An alternative way to secure the TV is with an optional
Sony Support Belt Kit.
