they may strip and become loose.

Securing TV to the Wall

(Depending upon model)

1 Insert and tighten the eye-bolts or TV brackets and bolts on the back

of the TV.

• If there are bolts inserted at the eye-bolts position, remove the
bolts first.

2 Mount the wall brackets with the bolts to the wall. Match the

location of the wall bracket and the eye-bolts on the rear of the TV.

3 Connect the eye-bolts and wall brackets tightly with a sturdy rope or

cable. Make sure to keep the rope parallel to the flat surface.

• Use a platform or cabinet that is strong and large enough to

support the TV securely.

• Brackets, bolts, and ropes are optional. You can obtain additional

accessories from your local dealer.

Mounting to the Wall

An optional wall mount can be used with your LG Television. Consult
with your local dealer for a wall mount that supports the VESA
standard used by your TV model. Carefully attach the wall mount
bracket at the rear of the TV. Install the wall mount bracket on a solid
wall perpendicular to the floor. If you are attaching the TV to other
building materials, please contact qualified personnel to install the
wall mount. Detailed instructions will be included with the wall mount.
We recommend that you use an LG brand wall mount. The LG wall
mount is easy to adjust or to connect the cables. When you do not use
LG’s wall mount bracket, use a wall mount bracket where the device is
adequately secured to the wall with enough space to allow connectivity
to external devices. If you are using a non-adjustable mount, attach the
mount to the wall. Attach the cables to the TV first, then attach the TV
to the mount.
