Follow these steps for a quick and easy setup of your Samsung TV. It is recommended to have two people for lifting and positioning the TV.
Carefully remove the TV from its packaging. Place the TV screen-down on a soft, flat surface, such as a blanket or foam padding, to prevent scratches during stand assembly. Ensure ample space around the TV for assembly.
????
Locate the two stand legs. For 50", 55", and 65" models, insert each stand leg into its designated slot on the bottom rear of the TV. Ensure they are fully seated and aligned correctly.
⬇️
Once the stand legs are inserted, secure them using the provided screws. Typically, four screws (M4 x L14) are used for each leg. Use a screwdriver to tighten them firmly, but do not overtighten.
?
For models that use a central stand base, or if you prefer this method, attach the stand base to the TV. This usually involves aligning the base with the central mounting point on the TV's back.
↔️
Secure the stand base to the TV using the provided screws (M4 x L14). Ensure all screws are tightened to prevent wobbling. The diagram shows four screws being inserted into the base.
?️
Warning: Always lift the TV with at least two people. Grasp the TV firmly on both sides, avoiding pressure on the screen. Carefully lift the TV and place it on your desired flat, stable surface, such as a TV stand or cabinet.
???⬆️
Connect your external devices to the TV's ports. The TV typically includes the following connection options:
?
Plug the power cord into the TV's power input, then plug the other end into a wall outlet. Once connected, press the power button on the TV remote control or the TV itself to turn on the television and begin initial setup.
