Getting started
Step 1. Attach stand or mount
Before you start using your TV, attach your TV stand or mount it on the wall.
CAUTION:
- Disconnect the AC power cord before installing a stand or a wall mount bracket.
- The display on your TV is fragile. Make sure the TV screen is not scratched or damaged by hard objects or from pressure.
- After the installation is completed, make sure the TV is steady on a table or firmly attached to a wall mount, before removing all protective film, if any.
Attach the TV stand
To attach the TV base stands to your TV:
- Carefully place your TV face down on a clean, soft, flat surface.
- Insert the TV base stands into the bottom slots on your TV.
- Use the screws provided to secure each stand tightly.
For 55"/65"/75" TVs:

For 85" TVs:

For 100" TVs:
NOTE: Three or more persons are needed to install the TV. One person holds the TV to prevent tipping through the whole installation process.
- One person holds the side of the TV, and the others remove the side cushions. Do not pinch the screen when holding the TV.
- Insert the TV base stands into the bottom slots on your TV. Use the screws provided to secure each base stand tightly.
- It takes three persons to transport the TV. The weight of TV with base stands is 140.0 lbs (63.5 kg). The furniture where the TV is placed should be tough enough to support it. Please make sure the width of the furniture is above 18.9 inches (480 mm).
