Get started This section describes how to position and connect your TV, and how to perform your first-time installation. 4.1 Position the TV BB WARNING • Do not insert the power plug into the wall socket before all the connections are made. • Large screen TVs are heavy. Two people are required to carry and handle the TV. Wherever you decide to position your TV, ensure that you always have easy access to the AC power cord or plug to disconnect the TV from the power. If the TV is mounted on a swivel base or swivel arm, ensure no strain is placed on the AC power cord when the TV is swivelled. Strain on the AC power cord can loosen connections.
