• Outdoor Antenna Grounding (Can differ by country):
  – If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the precautions below. An outdoor antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can come in contact with such power lines or circuits as death or serious injury can occur. Be sure the antenna system is grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) in the U.S.A. provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and requirements for the grounding electrode. Antenna grounding according to the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70

• Grounding (Except for devices which are not grounded.)
  – TV with a three-prong grounded AC plug must be connected to a three-prong grounded AC outlet. Ensure that you connect the earth ground wire to prevent possible electric shock.

• Never touch this apparatus or antenna during a lightning storm. You may be electrocuted.

• Make sure the power cord is connected securely to the TV and wall socket if not secured damage to the Plug and socket may occur and in extreme cases a fire may break out.

Preparing

Lifting and moving the TV

When moving or lifting the TV, read the following to prevent the TV from being scratched or damaged and for safe transportation regardless of its type and size.

• It is recommended to move the TV in the box or packing material that the TV originally came in.

• Before moving or lifting the TV, disconnect the power cord and all cables.

• When holding the TV, the screen should face away from you to avoid damage.

• Hold the side and bottom of the TV frame firmly. Make sure not to hold the transparent part, speaker, or speaker grill area.
  

• Use at least two people to move a large TV.

• When transporting the TV by hand, hold the TV as shown in the following illustration.
  

• When transporting the TV, do not expose the TV to jolts or excessive vibration.

• When transporting the TV, keep the TV upright; never turn the TV on its side or tilt towards the left or right.

• When handling the TV, be careful not to damage the protruding buttons.

• Avoid touching the screen at all times, as this may result in damage to the screen.

• Do not place the product on the floor with its front-facing down without padding. Failure to do so may result in damage to the screen.

• When attaching the stand to the TV set, place the screen facing down on a cushioned table or flat surface to protect the screen from scratches.

Mounting on the Table

1. Lift and tilt the TV into its upright position on a table.
   • Leave a minimum of 10 cm space from the wall for proper ventilation.

2. Connect the power cord to a wall outlet.

(Depending upon model)

• Do not apply foreign substances (oils, lubricants, etc.) to the screw parts when assembling the product. (Doing so may damage the product.)
• If you install the TV on a stand, you need to take actions to prevent the product from overturning. Otherwise, the product may fall over, which may cause injury.
• Do not use any unapproved items to ensure the safety and lifespan of the product.
• Any damages or injuries by using unapproved items are not covered by the warranty.
• Make sure that the screws are fastened tightly. (If they are not fastened securely enough, the TV may tilt forward after being installed.)
• Do not fasten the screws with excessive force otherwise they may strip and become loose.

Securing TV to the Wall

1. Insert and tighten the eye-bolts, or TV brackets and bolts on the back of the TV.
   • If there are bolts inserted at the eye-bolts position, remove the bolts first.

2. Mount the wall brackets with the bolts to the wall. Match the location of the wall bracket and the eye-bolts on the rear of the TV.

3. Connect the eye-bolts and wall brackets tightly with a sturdy rope or cable. Make sure to keep the rope parallel to the flat surface.
   • Use a platform or cabinet that is strong and large enough to support the TV securely.
   • Brackets, bolts and ropes are optional. You can obtain additional accessories from your local dealer.

(Depending upon model)

Mounting to the Wall

An optional wall mount can be used with your LG Television. Consult with your local dealer for a wall mount that supports the VESA standard used by your TV model. Carefully attach the wall mount bracket at the rear of the TV. Install the wall mount bracket on a solid wall perpendicular to the floor. If you are attaching the TV to other building materials, please contact qualified personnel to install the wall mount. Detailed instructions will be included with the wall mount. We recommend that you use an LG brand wall mount. The LG wall mount is easy to adjust or to connect the cables. When you do not use LG’s wall mount bracket, use a wall mount bracket where the device is adequately secured to the wall with enough space to allow connectivity to external devices. If you are using a non-adjustable mount, attach the mount to the wall. Attach the cables to the TV first, then attach the TV to the mount.

(Depending upon model)

• Remove the stand before installing the TV on a wall mount by performing the stand attachment in reverse.
• For more information of screws and wall mount bracket, refer to the Separate purchase.
• If you intend to mount the product to a wall, attach VESA standard mounting interface (optional parts) to the back of the product. When you install the set to use the wall mounting bracket (optional parts), fix it carefully so as not to drop.
• When mounting a TV on the wall, make sure not to install the TV by hanging the power and signal cables on the back of the TV.
• Do not install this product on a wall if it could be exposed to oil or oil mist. This may damage the product and cause it to fall.
• Please use the accessory cable holder when hanging on the wall. (Only OLED48/55/65/77/83C1*)
