- Cleaning: Wipe the mount with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
- Periodic Checks: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight and secure. Over time, vibrations or movement can cause fasteners to loosen.

- TV feels unstable: Double-check all mounting screws on both the TV and the wall plate. Ensure the wall type is appropriate and that anchors (if used) are correctly installed. The mount is designed for high load capacity and stability when correctly installed.
- Difficulty tilting: Loosen the tilt adjustment knobs slightly before attempting to adjust the angle. If the mechanism feels stiff, ensure no cables are obstructing movement.
