1. Assembling the wall-hanging
bracket
• Assemble it according to the size of the
plasma display.
Place the base upper and lower fittings
① and base left ② and right ③ fittings as
shown in the diagram.
Insert the projecting parts (tabs) of the base
left and right fittings into the cutouts of the
base upper and lower fittings (two positions
on right, and two on left), and secure the
fittings with the screws for assembling the
fixtures ④ (4).
(Tightening torque: 1.2 to 1.5 N•m)
Note
• Please hold the bracket base left and right
fittings as you work with the assembled wall
hanging bracket. Holding the base upper and
lower fittings might deform this unit.
2. Checking the strength of the installation location
 The wall-hanging bracket weighs approximately 3.2 kg (7.1 lbs).
Refer to the instruction manual of the plasma display, and check the weight
of the plasma display unit which will be fitted into the wall-hanging bracket.
 Refer to the outline drawing of the wall-hanging bracket shown on the
right, and check the wall strength at the six installation positions shown.
If the strength at any of these positions is lacking, provide sufficient
reinforcement.

Wall mounting holes (at 6 points)
Use the screws without fail to
anchor the fixture.
Notes
• There are five pre-drilled mounting holes at the top and another five at the bottom
of the wall-hanging bracket. Use the spare holes provided if wood or some other
material is used for the wall and a sufficient level of mounting strength cannot be
ensured by anchoring the fixture at the six positions shown on the right. However,
bear in mind that, depending on which materials the mounting surface is made of,
cracks may form on the surface if the screws are used at positions which are too
close together.
• Do not mount or place any other product other than the plasma display on the
fixture.
• For details on the dimensions applying when the plasma display is mounted, refer
to the outline drawing (See page 71).
3. Installing the wall-hanging bracket on the wall
Notes
• If it is necessary to embed screws or nuts in the wall prior to installing the
wall-hanging bracket because the wall is made of concrete or such other
materials, determine the positions of the holes by fitting the actual wall-hanging
bracket or calculating from the figures shown in the outline drawing, and then
embed screws or nuts with a nominal diameter of 6 mm (0.2 inches) or their
equivalent. If you are embedding the screws, make sure they protrude from the
wall surface by 10 to 15 mm (0.4 to 0.6 inches).
• For the wall mounting screws, use commercially available screws with a nominal
diameter of 6 mm (0.2 inches) that are suited to the material/structure to which
you are fitting the bracket.
• Anchor the screws in at least six locations.
• Check the strength of the mounting screws. Use screws that are sufficiently strong.
Arrows

Angle adjustment screws
 Install the wall-hanging bracket so that the arrows indicated on it are
pointing upward.
 First of all, secure the screw in the upper center hole  .
 Use a level to ensure that the bracket is not inclined at an angle, and screw
the bracket into position using the three screw holes at the bottom.
 Remove the angle adjustment screws from the bracket base left  and
right  fittings, and open the bracket base left  and right  fittings.
