SECURING THE TV TO A WALL
Securing the TV to a wall
For maximum security in the home, when using a TV with its stand, anti-tip straps should be fi tted. These
are available from supermarket websites and other websites and are an easy, inexpensive and effective
way of ensuring your TV stays safely upright. Straps are designed to be attached to the rear of the TV and
then tethered to the wall or the furniture the TV is stood on, these are fi tted as follows.
A) Using one or both of the top wall-mounting
holes and screws fasten one end of the fastening
cord/s to the TV. (the screws are already supplied in
the wall mounting holes)
Note - Please ensure that children do not climb on the TV set.
The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents is urging people to take care with fl at-screen televisions.
RoSPA stated in 2010 that "Toddlers are particularly at risk of pulling fl at-screen televisions on to
themselves. They are unsteady on their feet and are attracted by colourful television images."
The risk is increased as televisions become lighter.
Wall mounting
IMPORTANT - Before drilling any holes in the wall ensure you are not drilling
where there could be any electrical wires, water or gas pipes.
For optimum viewing, if wall mounting the TV higher than eye level, the TV should be tilted downwards
so that the TV's screen is 'face on'. See fi g 1 and 2.

internal parts.
