INSTALLING THE WALL MOUNT
You can use the wall mount bracket to mount this unit on a wall.
Installation Precautions
- Install on a vertical wall only.
- Do not install the Soundbar system in a location with high temperature and/or humidity. Install the system on a stable wall that can bear the weight of the Soundbar main unit.
- Check the strength of the wall. To install the Soundbar system on a wall that may not bear the Soundbar main unit weight, reinforce the wall before installation. If this is not possible, install the system on another wall, one stable enough to bear the weight of the Soundbar main unit
- Purchase and use the fixing screws or anchors appropriate for the kind of wall you have (plaster board, iron board, wood, etc.). If possible, fix the support screws into wall studs.
- Purchase wall mounting screws according to the type and thickness of the wall you will mount the Soundbar on.
- Diameter: M5
- Length: 1 3/8 inches or longer recommended.
- Connect cables from the unit to external devices before you install it on the wall.
- Make sure the unit is turned off and unplugged before you install it. Otherwise, it may cause an electric shock.
Wallmount Components
- Place the Wall Mount Guide against the wall surface.
- The Wall Mount Guide must be level.
- If your TV is mounted on the wall, install the Soundbar at least 2 inches (5 cm) below the TV.
- Align the Paper Template's Center Line with the center of your TV (if you are mounting the Soundbar below your TV), and then fix the Wall Mount Guide to the wall using tape.
- If you are not mounting below a TV, place the Center Line in the center of the installation area.
- Push a pen tip or sharpened pencil tip through the center of the C-TYPE images on each end of the Guide to mark the holes for the supporting screws, and then remove the Wall Mount Guide.
- Using an appropriately sized drill bit, drill a hole in the wall at each marking.
- If the markings do not correspond to the positions of studs, make sure you insert appropriate anchors or mollies into the holes before you insert the support screws. If you use anchors or mollies, make sure the holes you drill are large enough for the anchors or mollies you use.
- Push a screw (not supplied) through each Holder-Screw, and then screw each screw firmly into a support screw hole.
- Install 2 Bracket-Wall Mounts in the right orientation on the bottom of the Soundbar, using 2 Screws (M4 x L12).
