Assembly and Mounting Warnings
● Consult authorized service personnel for the installation and attachment of this unit to the wall.
This unit weighs approx. 60 kg (approx. 132 lbs.), including display monitor. Improper assembly or
installation may cause the unit to fall when it is mounted, which may result in fatal accidents. To
prevent this happening, check the strength of the materials in the mounting surface, and have at least
two persons carry out the installation in a suitable location. Check the material strength again after
mounting as well.
● Using display monitors other than those authorized by Victor with the unit may result in damage or
bodily injury due to the display monitor and stand toppling over.
● Assemble all bolts, nuts and screws securely. Failure to do so may result in display monitor and wall
mounting falling down, potentially causing damage or bodily injury.
● Avoid placing heavy objects on the power cord, as damage to the power cord may result, causing fire
or electric shock.
● This unit does not come with anchor bolts for securing it to walls, etc. Be sure you have materials on
hand as appropriate for the mounting location.

Mounting the Wall Unit
Plasterboard/Thin Plywood
Warning
The Wall Mounting Unit should be mounted to a wall that can adequately
hold the total weight of the plasma display and the Wall Mounting Unit
over a long period of time and which can adequately withstand
earthquakes, conceivable vibrations, and other external forces.
Improper installation may cause the plasma display to fall down, resulting
in physical injury.
Mounting On Wooden Walls
The weight of the unit should be borne by the wall posts or studs, and
these should be reinforced if insufficiently strong. Do not install the Wall
Mounting Unit on walls made of plasterboard or thin plywood. Use the
commercially sold screws best suited for the wall structure and material.
Mounting On Concrete Walls
Use commercially sold wall anchors capable of supporting the weight of
the plasma display.
Do not install the Wall
Mounting Unit in a
location which is hot or
humid or which may
become wet, as the
presence of excessive
moisture may lead to
fire or electric shock.
Do not install the Wall
Mounting Unit near the
blower or air inlet of an air
conditioner.
Do not install the unit in a
location with a large
amount of dust, soot, or
cigarette smoke, as this
may lead to fire.
At least
15 cm
At least
20 cm
Do not block the
ventilation holes, and be
sure to leave sufficient
space around the unit
for ventilation.
Inadequate ventilation may
cause the unit interior to
overheat, leading to fire.
Do not install the Wall
Mounting Unit on a
non-vertical wall.
The unit interior may
overheat, resulting in fire,
or the unit may fall down,
causing physical injury.
Do not install the Wall
Mounting Unit in a
location subject to
frequent vibration, impact
or other external forces.
The unit may fall down or
be damaged, causing
physical injury.
Do not install the unit in a
location where people
may hang on it or lean
against it.
Doing so may cause the
unit to fall down or be
damaged, resulting in
injury.
Do not install the unit in
a location exposed to
direct sunlight or strong
light, as viewing the
plasma display in an
overly bright
environment can be
tiring for the eyes.

Caution
● Consult authorized service personnel for electrical work. Using power cords damaged during
installation (i.e., exposed or severed wiring) may result in fire or electric shock.
● Conduct the work with adequate working space. Damage or bodily injury may result from
working under unsuitable conditions.
● Avoid mounting this unit in areas where there is electrical wiring or water pipes, as fire or
electric shock may result.

Mounting the Plasma Display
Fasten all bolts and screws securely. Failure to do so may cause the plasma display and Wall Mounting
Unit to fall down, causing potentially fatal accidents.
Danger
Instructions for Assembly
1. Attach the Wall Mounting Unit w to the surface of the wall.
The unit should be attached using the method most suited to the wall structure.
＊ When anchor nuts/bolts are to be inserted into the wall before mounting, either align the actual Wall
Mounting Unit w with the wall to determine the positioning of the holes or calculate the positioning of the
holes using a dimensional drawing of the unit before installing the anchor nuts/bolts.
Improper positioning/installation of the Wall Mounting Unit on the wall may cause the unit to fall down.
Check the structure, material, and strength of the mounting surface thoroughly and carry out installation
in a suitable location. Failure to do so may cause the plasma display and Wall Mounting Unit to fall
down, leading to potentially fatal accidents.
