Simple troubleshooting

‘I don’t have the right bolts for my TV!’| The world of TV technology is always changing – it can be hard to keep up sometimes. So, it might be the case that the correct bolt size is not included… you’re just too advanced!| Just ask Vogel’s Consumer Care to request a service kit, and we’ll send everything you need.

---|---|---
‘My wall bolts have snapped!’| You might not be drilling deep enough… or your drill could be too blunt, so that the hole is too narrow and the screw gets stuck.| Use another hole in the wall plate to fix the wall mount to the wall. Make sure you use a sharp drill of the correct size. Use the size of the screw as indication of the depth to be drilled.
