Caution

Don’t fold the shelf backwards on its hinge or it may break.

Selecting a Location and TV Support

Select a suitable location for your TV and follow all of its safety instructions to ensure it operates safely and effectively, as described in the User’s Guide.

You can use an optional EPSON TV stand to support your TV. Order part number LS47STD (for the LS47P1) or LS57STD (for the LS57P1) from your dealer.

If you use your own stand, make sure it can securely support the TV as follows:

Specification LS47P1 LS57P1

Width of the base (minimum) 47 inches (119 cm) 56 inches (142 cm)

Depth of the base (minimum) 16 inches (41 cm) 18 inches (46 cm)

Place the stand in a location that allows you access to the back of the TV and provides at least 12 inches (30 cm) of room for ventilation at the sides.

You may want to secure the TV to a wall or other support so it stays upright on its stand during an earthquake or other situation. See your User’s Guide for details.
