Stand Installation
Follow these steps to attach the TV stand:
For 43" to 65" TVs:
Two primary stand configurations, labeled A and B, are shown for different TV sizes. Ensure you use the correct stand parts and screws as indicated for your specific model.
Step-by-step: Place the TV face down on a soft surface. Align stand part A with the mounting points on the TV base and secure it with screws [screw symbol]. Repeat for stand part B. Ensure all connections are firm before lifting the TV upright.
Cable Connections:
Connect essential cables to the rear ports, including USB, HDMI (with ARC/eARC support), LAN for network connectivity, and ANT for antenna input.
Wall Mounting
For wall mounting, use a compatible VESA wall mount. The required VESA mounting patterns and screw specifications are provided.
VESA Mounting Standards:
Samsung TVs support standard VESA mounting patterns. The required VESA dimensions (width x height) and screw size (M8) vary by TV size:
| TV Model Series | VESA (A x B mm) | Screw Size (C mm) |
|---|---|---|
| 43" (Q7F, QEF1, QF7, QFE1) | 200 x 200 | M8 |
| 50" (Q7F, QEF1, QF7, QFE1) | 200 x 200 | M8 |
| 55" (Q7F, QEF1, QF7, QFE1) | 400 x 300 | M8 |
| 65" (Q7F, QEF1, QF7, QFE1) | 400 x 300 | M8 |
The recommended screw length (C) for M8 wall mounts is typically 19-21 mm. Ensure screws are not too long to avoid damaging internal components [warning symbol].
