Getting Started
4: Securing the TV
Sony strongly recommends 
taking measures to prevent 
the TV from toppling over.
Unsecured TVs may topple 
and result in property 
damage, serious bodily 
injury or even death.
• Secure the TV to a wall and/or stand.
• Do not allow children to play or climb on 
furniture and TV sets.
• Avoid placing or hanging items on the 
TV.
• Never install the TV on:
– slippery, unstable and/or uneven 
surfaces.
– furniture that can easily be used as 
steps, such as a chest of drawers.
• Install the TV where it cannot be pulled, 
pushed, or knocked over.
• Route all AC power cords and 
connecting cables so that they are not 
accessible to curious children.
Consider the following measures when 
securing your TV to a Stand (not supplied).
1
Secure the Stand for the TV.
Make sure the Stand can adequately 
support the weight of the TV. Use two 
angle braces (not supplied) to secure 
the stand. For each angle brace use the 
appropriate hardware to:
• Attach one side of the angle brace to 
the wall stud.
• Attach the other side to the Stand.
2
Secure the TV to the Stand.
Use the optional hardware listed as 
follows (not supplied):
• M4 machine screw (screwed into the 
TV’s Table-Top Stand)
• A screw or similar (attach it to the 
Stand)
• Rope or chain (strong enough to 
support the weight of the TV). Make 
sure that there is no excess slack in 
the rope or chain.
An alternative way to secure the TV is 
with an optional Sony Support Belt Kit. 
The Sony Support Belt Kit is available as 
an optional accessory, depending on 
your TV model.
