Setting up your TV
Some TV models are packaged with a detached
Table-Top Stand so you can mount your TV to
a wall right away. If you are not mounting the
TV to a wall, you will need to attach the
Table-Top Stand. You will need a Phillips
screwdriver and the supplied screws to
complete the task. Look for the attachment
instructions provided with the TV.
Be sure to consider the following while setting
up your TV:
• Disconnect all cables when carrying the
TV.
• Never install the TV on unstable and/or
uneven surfaces.
• Carry the TV with the adequate number of
people; larger size TVs require two or more
people.
• Correct hand placement while carrying the
TV is very important for safety and to avoid
damage.
Attaching the Table-Top Stand
Refer to the supplied Table-Top Stand
instruction leaflet for proper attachment for
some TV models.
1 Gently slide the TV unit onto the
Table-Top Stand and align the screw
holes.
~
• Do not put stress on the LCD panel or the frame
around the screen.
• Be careful to not pinch your hands or the AC
power cord when you install the TV unit to the
Table-Top Stand.
Setting up your TV
• Ensure your TV has adequate ventilation,
see page 13.
• For best picture quality, do not expose the
screen to direct illumination or sunlight.
• Avoid installing the TV in a room with
reflective wall and floor materials.
• If the TV is brought directly from a cold to
a warm location, or is placed in a very damp
room, or is placed in a room in which
heating has just been turned on, moisture
may condense on the surface or inside the
TV. Should this occur, turn off the TV and
leave the TV off until the moisture
evaporates, and then the TV can be used. If
a disc is inserted in the built-in BD player,
eject and take out the disc and turn off the
TV. Using the TV with moisture in or on it
may cause the TV to show poor picture and/
or poor color or may cause a malfunction.
2 Use the supplied screws to attach the
TV unit to the Table-Top Stand.
~
• If you use an electric screwdriver, set the
tightening torque at approximately 1.5 N·m
{15 kgf·cm}.
