Pre-Installation
PLANNING INSTALLATION
Compare all parts in the package with the Hardware Included and Package Contents lists in this manual. If any part is missing or damaged,
do not install this wall mount system and call customer service at 1-877-527-0313 or visit www.HomeDepot.com.
This wall mount bracket is compatible with VESA 100/200/300/400 mm mounting holes.
PLANNING WALL PLACEMENT
CAUTION: Ensure the wall you select is a weight-bearing wall. Failure to observe this precaution can result in serious physical
injury and/or property damage. Consult a professional installer or contact customer service if you have any questions.
When selecting a wall to mount your display, keep the following in mind:
□Select a place with easy access to power outlets, cable input sources, and connections for speakers and accessories.
□Avoid direct sunlight, heat, and vibrations and do not place in direct ow of trafc.
□Select a weight-bearing wall. The wall must be able to safely support four times the combined load of the equipment and all
attached hardware and components.
PLANNING MOUNTING HEIGHT
The optimal viewing height is to center the display at eye level when seated. Many people consider this to be too low for a wall mount, and
commonly use the following rule for placement:
□Position the bottom of the display no higher than eye level when seated, and the top of the display no higher than eye level when
standing. Anything within these limits should normally provide a comfortable viewing experience.
