Sanus Wall Mount

As unnatural as it may seem to hang up your TV, Phillips flat-panel TVs are made specifically to be mounted to a wall. On the back of your TV you will find an arrangement of screw holes in a box pattern. These screw holes are called VESA (for Video Electronics Standards Association) holes and they are made to connect your TV to a wall mount. Different wall mounts have different VESA dimensions so it's important to make sure the VESA dimensions of the wall mount fits the dimensions of your TV.

Instructions

1

Insert a Phillips screwdriver into the screw holes located in the middle of the back of the TV. Remove the screws and cover the TV screen with a blanket. Lay the TV screen down and pull the base out from the bottom of the TV.

2

Run a stud finder over the walls until you find two vertical studs in the area you want to hang the TV. Outline the studs on the wall with a pencil. Place the wall plate over the studs and insert the lag bolts that came with the wall mount through the corner holes of the wall plate. Use a wrench to tighten the lag bolts into the wall.

3

Lay the brackets on the back of the face down TV. Line up the VESA holes of the brackets evenly with the VESA holes of the TV. Use the VESA screws to connect the brackets to the TV. Tighten the VESA screws with the screwdriver.

4

Take the TV with the brackets connected to the back over to the wall plate. Line up the brackets to the wall plate's connectors and tighten the security screw in place. The security screw keeps the TV locked in place.
