Securing the TV

Sony strongly recommends taking measures to prevent the TV from toppling
over; as unsecured TVs may topple and result in property damage, serious
bodily injury or even death.

Preventing the TV
from Toppling

❑ Secure the TV to a wall and/or stand.

❑ Do not allow children to play or climb on furniture and TV sets.

❑ Avoid placing or hanging items on the TV.

❑ Never install the TV on:

• slippery, unstable and/or uneven surfaces.
• furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers.

❑ Install the TV where it cannot be pulled, pushed, or knocked over.

❑ Route all AC power cords and connecting cables so that they are not accessible

to curious children.

Use a Sony TV
Stand

Use a Sony specified TV stand (see page 2) and follow the instruction
manual provided with the Sony TV stand.
If a Sony specified TV stand is not used, consider the following
recommended measures.

Secure the Stand for the TV.

Make sure the TV stand can adequately support the weight of the TV.
Use two angle braces (not supplied) to secure the stand.
For each angle brace use the appropriate hardware to:
• attach one side of the angle brace to the wall stud.

• attach the other side to the TV stand.
