Getting Started
All models are ready to be mounted on a wall.
Model KDL-52WL140 will require detaching the
Table-Top stand.
• For product protection and safety reasons,
Sony strongly recommends that you use the
Wall-Mount Bracket model designed for your
TV and the wall-mounting of your TV should
be performed by a Sony dealer or licensed
contractor.
• For bracket installation, refer to the instruction
guide provided by the Wall-Mount Bracket
model for your TV. Sufficient expertise is
required in installing this TV, especially to
determine the strength of the wall for
withstanding the TV’s weight.
• Be sure to use the screws supplied with the
Wall-Mount Bracket when attaching the
mounting hooks to the TV set.
The supplied M6 screws are designed so that they
are 8 mm to 12 mm in length when measured
from the attaching surface of the mounting hook.
The diameter and length of the screws differ
depending on the Wall-Mount Bracket model.
Use of screws other than those supplied may
result in internal damage to the TV set or cause it
to fall, etc.
• Do not remove the Table-Top Stand of the
KDL-52WL140 for any reason other than to
wall-mount the TV.
• Models KDL-40WL140 and KDL-46WL140 can
be wall-mounted as packaged. If you decided to
use the TV with the TV stand and later want to
wall-mount the TV, follow the steps provided on
this page to remove the Table-Top Stand.
• Be sure to store the unused screws and Table-Top
Stand in a safe place until you are ready to attach
the Table-Top Stand. Keep the screws away from
small children.

Follow the simple steps below to remove the
Table-Top Stand:
1 Unplug the AC power cord and disconnect all
the cables from the TV.
2 Secure the Mounting Hook to the back of the
TV.
3 Adjust the angle of the Mounting Hook.
4 Remove the screws on the rear of the TV (see
illustration in the next column). Do not
remove any other screws from the TV.
5 When screws are removed, lift the TV off the
stand. Make sure that you carry out this task
with at least two or three people. Do not
attempt to lift the TV by yourself.
