CAUTION:

Follow instructions provided with the wall mount bracket. If it is not correctly mounted, the TV may fall and cause property damage or personal injury.
When you attach the mount, be sure to use spacers (provided by the third-party manufacturer) between the TV and the bracket.
To prevent internal damage to the TV and to ensure it is mounted securely, be sure to use fixing screws (not included) that are 9.5 – 11.5 mm in length when measured from the attaching surface of the rear cover.
Make sure the tilt angle between the TV screen and the vertical surface is no more than 15 degrees.
