Install Your Flat Panel TV
A common flat panel TV mounting option is to hang the panel on a sturdy wall or from a reinforced ceiling. When
mounting in this way, some preparations must be completed first. Follow the steps below to prepare the panel for
mounting.
1 ) Attach the speaker brackets to the speaker (see page 19).
2 ) Attach the speaker to the panel (see page 21).
3 ) Connect the speaker cables to the speakers then to the panel (see page 22).
4 ) Connect cables for any other devices to the panel.
When deciding on a location for your flat panel TV, consider other equipment in the room. Equipment such
as a DVR, Receiver, VCR, etc. requires some way to communicate with the panel, either directly or through
another device. Review the instructions that came with the other equipment for available ports and
terminals.
After deciding which ports and terminals are needed, mark the connections on the flat panel TV for easier
identification once the panel is mounted.
5 ) Temporarily bundle loose cables with rubber bands (not included).
6 ) Plug the flat panel TV’s power cord in to the panel but do NOT plug in to the power outlet.
7 ) Follow installation directions provided with your selected wall/ceiling mount.
For details, refer to the operating instructions supplied with the wall/ceiling mount unit.
2.4 Mount the Flat Panel TV
Because your flat panel TV is slim but heavy, have at least two people mount and/or position the panel. The
following sections provide instructions for the different mounting and anchoring options.
Anchor the Panel When Using a Stand
When using a stand, stabilize the panel to keep it from tipping over. Please use the supplied metal fittings and
screws to anchor the panel to a wall or other solid support structure.
Another option is to purchase hooks, cords, and fittings through your installer or from your local hardware store.
The hardware size and strength depends on the composition and thickness of the anchoring surface.
Recommended hook: Nominal diameter 8 mm (3/8 inch), length 12 mm to 18 mm (0.5 inches to 0.7 inches)
To anchor the panel when using the provided stand, follow the steps below.
1 ) Attach the hooks to the mounting holes on the
back of the panel.
2 ) Sink the fittings into the wall or support structure.
3 ) Run cords between the hooks and the fittings.
4 ) Tighten the cords until the panel is anchored but
not pulled off balance.
