Step 5: Detach the display from the Tabletop Stand

The procedure differs depending on the display model. Apply the procedure
appropriate for the display you are installing.

KLV-26HG2

1Pull the lower corner (either right or

left ) of the rear cover. Then pull the
other lower corner.

2Hold the rear cover with both hands

and pull it towards you. The rear
cover will separate from the display.

Note

Lay the display face down on a soft cloth
before going to 3.

3Remove the two small screws from

the clip. Detach the clip from the
Tabletop Stand.

4Remove the five screws from the

Tabletop Stand.

5Lift up the Stand slightly, then pull it

towards you. The Stand will separate
from the display.

Notes

• Lay the display face down on a stable
and level surface, leaving the base of
the Stand sticking out in the air.
Putting the display face and the base
of the Stand on the same level surface
makes the Display Unit inclined, thus
unstable, causing any danger.

•When removing the Tabletop Stand,
hold it firmly.
