• Install each support column so that the side with the symbol is forward and the end with the plastic end cap (pointed) is upwards.

The same applies to support column attachment method

2 Attach plasma display to support column.

Fit the stand's support columns into the slots in the center of the bottom of the plasma display then slowly insert them directly into the slots. Be extremely careful not to insert the support columns of the stand into any part of the plasma display other than the stand insertion slots. Note that doing so might damage the plasma display panel or its ports or result in the warping of the stand.

If the plasma display is fitted with handles, it is usually best to hold the display by its handles when attaching it to the support column.

Caution

• Be sure to work with at least one other person when attaching the display.
• Be careful not to allow your fingers get caught between the display and support column.

3 Use the hexagonal bolts to fix the plasma display to the support column (4 locations).
