Using other wall-hanging brackets, or installing a wall-hanging bracket by yourself have the risk
of personal injury and product damage. In order to maintain the unit’s performance and safety, be
absolutely sure to ask your dealer or a licensed contractor to secure the wall-hanging brackets. Any
damage caused by installing without a qualified installer will void your warranty.
Do not mount the unit directly below ceiling lights (such as spotlights, floodlights or halogen lights)
which typically give off high heat. Doing so may warp or damage plastic cabinet parts.
Take care when fixing wall brackets to the wall. Always ensure that there are no electrical cables or
pipes in the wall before hanging bracket.
To prevent fall and injury, remove the TV from its fixed wall position when it is no longer in use.
