Preparing

Lifting and moving the TV

Please note the following advice to prevent the TV from being scratched or damaged and for safe transportation regardless of its type and size.

• It is recommended to move the TV in the box or packing material that the TV originally came in.
• Before moving or lifting the TV, disconnect the power cord and all cables.
• When holding the TV, the screen should face away from you to avoid damage.
  
• Hold the top and bottom of the TV frame firmly. Make sure not to hold the transparent part, speaker, or speaker grill area.
  
• When transporting a large TV, there should be at least 2 people.
• When transporting the TV by hand, hold the TV as shown in the following illustration.
• When transporting the TV, do not expose the TV to jolts or excessive vibration.
  
• When transporting the TV, keep the TV upright, never turn the TV on its side or tilt towards the left or right.
• Do not apply excessive pressure to cause flexing/bending of frame chassis as it may damage the screen.
• When handling the TV, be careful not to damage the protruding buttons.
  
• Avoid touching the screen at all times, as this may result in damage to the screen.
• When attaching the stand to the TV set, place the screen facing down on a cushioned table or flat surface to protect the screen from scratches.

Mounting on the Table

1. Lift and tilt the TV into its upright position on a table.
   • Leave a 10 cm (minimum) space from the wall for proper ventilation.
2. Connect the power cord to a wall outlet.

• Do not apply foreign substances (oils, lubricants, etc.) to the screw parts when assembling the product. (Doing so may damage the product.)
• If you install the TV on a stand, you need to take action to prevent the product from overturning. Otherwise, the product may fall over, which may cause injury.
• Do not use any unapproved items to ensure the safety and product life span.
• Any damage or injuries caused by using unapproved items are not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
• Make sure that the screws are inserted correctly and fastened securely. (If they are not fastened securely enough, the TV may tilt forward after being installed.) Do not use too much force and over-tighten the screws; otherwise, the screw may be damaged and not tighten correctly.
• If a television is not positioned in a sufficiently stable location, it can be potentially hazardous due to falling. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:
  – Using cabinets or stands recommended by the manufacturer of the television.
  – Only using furniture that can safely support the television.
  – Ensuring the television is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.
  – Not placing the television on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television to a suitable support.
  – Not standing the televisions on cloth or other materials placed between the television and supporting furniture.
  – Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television or its controls.

Securing TV to the Wall

1. Insert and tighten the eye-bolts, or TV brackets and bolts on the back of the TV.
   • If there are bolts inserted at the eye-bolts position, remove the bolts first.
2. Mount the wall brackets with the bolts to the wall. Match the location of the wall bracket and the eye-bolts on the rear of the TV.
3. Connect the eye-bolts and wall brackets tightly with a sturdy rope. Make sure to keep the rope horizontal with the flat surface.
   • Use a platform or cabinet that is strong and large enough to support the TV securely.
   • Brackets, bolts, and ropes are not provided. You can obtain additional accessories from your local dealer.

Attach an optional wall mount bracket at the rear of the TV carefully and install the wall mount bracket on a solid wall perpendicular to the floor. When you attach the TV to other building materials, please contact qualified personnel. LG recommends that wall mounting be performed by a  qualified professional installer. Please use a wall mount bracket where the device is adequately secured to the wall with enough space to allow connectivity to external devices. It is advised to connect all the cables before installing fixed wall mounts.

• Remove the stand before installing the TV on a wall mount by performing the stand attachment in reverse.
• For more information on screws and wall mount brackets, refer to the Separate Purchase.
• If you intend to mount the product to a wall, attach VESA standard mounting interface (optional parts) to the back of the product.
  When you install the set to use the wall mounting bracket (optional parts), fix it carefully so as not to drop.
• When mounting a TV on the wall, make sure not to install the TV by hanging the power and signal cables on the back of the TV.
• Do not install this product on a wall if it could be exposed to oil or oil mist. This may damage the product and cause it to fall.
• When installing the wall mounting bracket, it is recommended to cover the stand hole using tape, in order to prevent the influx of dust and insects. (Depending on model)

Antenna/Cable

Connect the TV to a wall antenna socket with an RF cable (75 Ω).

• Use a signal splitter to use more than 2 TVs.
• If the image quality is poor with an antenna connected, try to realign the antenna in the correct direction.
• An antenna cable and converter are not supplied.
• For a location that is not supported with Ultra HD broadcasting, this TV cannot receive Ultra HD broadcasts directly.
