Simple troubleshooting
Found a problem you can’t fix? Don’t panic… try these!
Problem | Cause | Solution |
---|---|---|
‘There are stains on the arms of the wall mount’ | The stains are caused by the |
paper pulp interior in the box. We decided to reduce the amount of plastic in
the packaging and therefore there is no plastic bag around the product anymore
to prevent from some paper dust on the product. So, these stains might occur.|
The stains are easy to remove with a cloth.
‘My TV does not remain leveled horizontally, with moving / turning it’| When
you level your TV and tighten the thumbnut by hand, it might not be tight
enough to stay level.| Level the TV with a spirit level and tighten the
thumbnut thoroughly with a 4 mm allen key, instead of by hand.
‘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. Click here to contact
Vogel’s Consumer Care.
---|---|---
‘I have a lot of leftover bolts, is something wrong?’| No, you did it very
well! You only need 4 bolts to install the mount to your TV. Because of all
the different types of TVs, we have included the most common sizes for the
most sold TVs.| Don’t waste the other bolts, save them! You can use them for
another TV when you buy a new one or use it elsewhere.
‘My wall screws 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.
