Removing the Pedestal Stand
1) Carefully lay the front of the unit face down on a flat, cushioned surface such as a quilt or
blanket. Leave the stand protruding over the edge of the surface.
Note: Extreme care should always be used when removing the pedestal stand to avoid
damage to the LCD panel.
2) Remove the screws shown in the below diagram. This will allow removal of the
pedestal stand.
3) Once you have removed all screws holding the pedestal stand in place, remove the
pedestal stand from the TV.
CAUTION: Always place the TV on the floor or a sturdy, level, stable surface that can support
the weight of the unit. To secure the TV, use a sturdy strap from the hook(s) on the rear of the
TV to a wall stud, pillar, or other immovable structure. Make sure the strap is tight, secure,
and parallel to the floor.
