ATTACHING THE TV TO A WALL

PREPARATION
We recommend that you set up the TV close to a wall so it cannot fall over if pushed backwards. Additionally, we recommend that the TV be attached to a wall so it cannot be pulled in a forward direction, potentially causing injury or damaging the product. Caution: Please make sure that children don’t climb on or hang from the TV.
Plasma TV Model
LCD TV Model
Insert the eye-bolts (or TV brackets and bolts) to tighten the product to the wall as shown in the picture.
*If your product has the bolts in the eye-bolts position before inserting the eye-bolts, loosen the bolts.
Secure the wall brackets with the bolts (not provided as parts of the product, must purchase separately) to the wall. Match the height of the bracket that is mounted on the wall to the holes in the product.
Ensure the eye-bolts or brackets are tightened securely.
Use a sturdy rope (not provided as parts of the product, must pur­chase separately) to tie the product. It is safer to tie the rope so it becomes horizontal between the wall and the product.
This feature is not available for all models.

AANNTTEENNNNAA//CCAABBLL EE IINN
socket on the set.
Connect the antenna cable to the RF antenna in socket of the VCR.
