Sony Bravia 40-inch LCD Mounting Instructions

Sony manufactures several 40-inch LCD HDTVs as part of their BRAVIA line of televisions. With these flat panel displays, you have the option of placing the display on a TV stand using the table-top stand mount, or you can mount the display on your wall using an optional wall-mount bracket. Wall mounting your TV can give you more space to place other items and give your living room or bedroom a cleaner, less cluttered appearance.

Instructions

1

Determine a place to install the TV. The TV must have clearance all around to allow for proper air circulation. The wall on which you install it must also be sturdy enough to handle the weight of the TV.

2

Attach the mounting hook to the base bracket using the "+BVST4" screws that came with the mounting kit.

3

Align the wall-mount bracket with your wall, ensuring that it is level, and attach it to the wall using four or more 8mm screws.

4

Remove the mounting hook by unscrewing the screws, leaving the base bracket on the wall.

5

Remove the table-top stand on your TV if one is attached. This will involve unscrewing the three or four screws that attach the stand to the TV. Refer to your TV's owner's manual for specific instructions on how to do this.

6

Locate the screw locations on the back of your BRAVIA TV and attach the two mounting hooks to the back of your TV with the "+PSW6" screws.

7

Connect the TV's power cord and any video and audio cables for external components you plan to connect to the TV. Once the TV is mounted, you will not be able to access the video ports.

8

Lift the TV and gently place the mounting hooks onto the base bracket on the wall.

9

Secure the mounting hooks to the base bracket by screwing in two "+ BVST4" screws into the bottom screw slot of the mounting hooks.

10

Check that TV is firmly mounted and that all screws are tight.
