5. Setup and Installation

Before starting, ensure you have the necessary tools: drill, stud finder (if applicable), level, screwdriver, and pencil.

5.1 Pre-Installation Checks

• Identify your wall type (solid concrete, wood stud, plasterboard).
• Locate studs if mounting to a wood stud wall.
• Ensure no hidden electrical wires or plumbing are in the drilling path.

5.2 Attach TV Brackets

1. Carefully place your TV face down on a soft, clean surface.
2. Identify the VESA mounting holes on the back of your TV.
3. Select the appropriate screws and spacers from the hardware kit that fit your TV's VESA holes.
4. Attach the two TV brackets to the back of your TV, ensuring the EVA protective grommets are placed between the bracket and the TV to prevent scratches. Tighten securely.

5.3 Mark Wall Mounting Position

1. Hold the wall plate assembly against the wall at your desired viewing height. Use a level to ensure it is perfectly horizontal.
2. Mark the drilling points through the holes on the wall plate with a pencil.

5.4 Install Wall Plate

1. Drill pilot holes at the marked positions. The drill bit size will depend on your wall type and the anchors/screws used.
2. Insert wall anchors if required (e.g., for concrete or plasterboard).
3. Securely fasten the wall plate assembly to the wall using the provided screws. Ensure it is firmly attached and level.
4. For Plasterboard Walls (12.5-25mm thickness): Use specific plasterboard anchors (not always included, may need to be purchased separately) and ensure the TV weight does not exceed 18 kg. Distribute the load evenly.

5.5 Mount TV to Wall Plate (Fast Block System)

1. With assistance, carefully lift the TV with the attached brackets.
2. Align the TV brackets with the corresponding slots on the wall plate.
3. Gently lower the TV until the brackets engage with the wall plate's "Fast Block" mechanism. You should hear a click or feel it securely lock into place.
4. Verify that the TV is securely seated on the mount by gently pulling on the bottom edges.

6. Operating Instructions

Once your TV is securely mounted, you can adjust its position to achieve the best viewing experience.

• Vertical Tilt: To adjust the vertical tilt, gently push or pull the top or bottom of your TV. The mount allows for a tilt range of -5° (downward) to +20° (upward). Adjust slowly and smoothly.
• Horizontal Swivel: To adjust the horizontal swivel, gently push or pull the side of your TV. The mount allows for a swivel range of ±20° (left or right).
• Ensure all cables are free and not pinched during adjustments.

7. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your TV wall mount.

• Cleaning: Wipe the mount with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Periodic Checks: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight and secure. Do not overtighten.
• Inspect for Damage: Inspect the mount for any signs of wear, corrosion, or damage. If any damage is found, discontinue use and contact Meliconi support.

8. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues during or after installation, refer to the following common solutions:

• TV Not Level: Ensure the wall plate was installed perfectly level. If the TV brackets allow for minor adjustments, use them. Otherwise, the wall plate may need re-installation.
• Mount Feels Loose: Re-check all wall mounting screws and TV bracket screws for tightness. Ensure the wall type is appropriate for the weight.
• Difficulty Adjusting Tilt/Swivel: Ensure no cables are obstructing movement. The mechanism should move smoothly. Do not force adjustments.
• Missing Parts: Refer to the package contents list. Contact Meliconi support if parts are missing.
