Preventing the plasma television from falling over

After installing the stand, be sure to take special care to ensure that the plasma television will not fall over and is stabilized to both the wall and rack.

Stabilizing on a table or rack

Stabilize the plasma television as shown in the diagram using the plastic bands and screws supplied with the optional stand.

Note

To stabilize the plasma television on a table or rack, use screws that have a nominal diameter of 4 mm and that are at least 20 mm long.

Using a wall for stabilization

1Attach falling prevention bolts (hooks) to the plasma television.

2Use strong cords to stabilize it appropriately and firmly to a wall, pillar, or other sturdy element.

Perform this work in the same way on the left and right sides.

Use hooks, cords and fittings that are available on the market. Recommended hook: Nominal diameter 8 mm Length 12 mm to 18 mm.

A table or rack with adequate strength should always be used to support the plasma television. Failure to do so could result in personal injury and physical damage.

When installing the plasma television, please take the necessary safety measures to prevent it from falling or overturning in case of emergencies, such as earthquakes, or of accidents.

If you do not take these precautions, the plasma television could fall down and cause injury.

The screws, hooks, cords and other fittings that you use to secure the plasma television to prevent it from overturning will vary according to the composition and thickness of the surface to which it will be attached.

Select the appropriate screws, hooks, cords, and other fittings after first inspecting the surface carefully to determine its thickness and composition and after consulting a professional installer if necessary.
