Position your set so that no bright light or sunlight falls directly onto the screen. Care should be taken not to expose the set to any unnecessary vibration, moisture, dust or heat. Also, ensure that the set is placed in a posi­tion to allow a free flow of air. Do not cover the ventilation openings on the back cover. If you intend to mount the set to a wall, attach Wall mounting interface (optional parts) to the back of the set. When you install the set using the wall mounting interface (optional parts), attach it carefully so it will not drop.
- Be sure to use screws and a wall mount that meet VESA standards.
- Using screws longer than those recommended might damage the product.
- Using screws that do not meet VESA standards might either damage the product or result in it coming away from the wall. We will not be held responsible for any damage resulting from failure to follow these instructions.
