Installation for Monitor Unit

Installation location and cleaning

Select for installation a location where the stand can be placed completely horizontal or where the front edge of the support (petal-shaped part) can be attached horizontally as shown in Figure A.

Do not install in locations where the entire support is at a diagonal such as in Figure B or where the monitor unit is facing down such as in Figure C.

2CAUTION

Thoroughly wipe away and dust or grease from the installation location using a cloth which has been soaked in a neutral cleaning agent and wrung out. Attach the stand after allowing the installation location to dry.

1Install the shoe on the rear of the TV monitor

temporarily using the supplied hexagon wrench (Accessary C).

NOTE

When adjusting the fixing screw of the shoe, use the hexagon wrench (Accessary C) that came with the product. Using other hexagon wrenches may damage the screw.

2Bend the stand support to conform to the shape of the installation location.

3Adjust the shape of the support so that there is no rattling or gap when the stand is placed on the support.

4Peel off the protective strip from the double-sided tape on the bottom of the stand and securely attach the stand.

2CAUTION

???Do not attach the double-sided tape more than once or touch the adhesive with your fingers as this will weaken its adhesive strength.

???If the temperature of the surface of the installation location is low, warm it up using a heater or other means before attaching the stand. Low temperature may weaken the adhesive strength of the tape.

???The supplied stand is specially intended for this product. Do not use it with another monitor.

5Secure the stand using the supplied tapping screw (Accessory D).

6After attaching the stand, allow it to sit undisturbed for 24 hours. Take care not to apply any force to the stand during this time.
