Getting started
When attaching the center unit to a wall
You can attach the center unit to a wall.
CAUTIONS: location of attachment to a wall
• Take care when selecting a location for attaching the center unit to the wall. Injury to personnel, or damage to the center
unit, may result if the center unit is attached in a location which interferes with daily activities, or a location that the users
are liable to knock their bodies or heads against the center unit.
• Avoid a location above a bed, sofa, water tank, sink, etc. or in a passage.
CAUTIONS: attachment to a wall
• The center unit weighs approximately 2.95 kg (6.51 lbs). When you operate the buttons on the center unit, an additional
force will be applied to the center unit in downward direction. Therefore, sufficient care must be required when attaching
the center unit to a wall to prevent any accidents caused by the unit's falling off.
• Before attaching the center unit to a wall, check the wall (or other related aspects) you want to attach it to, and verify
whether the strength of the wall will be sufficient not only to support the weight of the center unit itself but also to withstand
the additional downward force which will be applied to it during operations.
(Do not attach the center unit to a plywood or plasterboard wall. The center unit will fall and sustain damage as a result.)
If you cannot judge the strength of the wall or other aspects, consult a qualified person (such as a qualified constructor).
• The screws needed for attachment are not supplied. Use screws which are compatible with the strength and material of
the pillar or wall.
• When attaching the center unit, the screws must be secured tightly in all three locations. Failure in attaching the center
unit to the wall using all three holes on the back of the center unit makes for an unstable attachment, and it constitutes a
safety hazard as the center unit may fall down.
Example of attachment
The procedure below is an example of how to attach the center unit to a wall:
It does not make any guarantee for safety while using the center unit on the wall. Take into account such factors as the
material, strength, and the status of the wall as well as the reinforcing material, and the possible changes that will take place
over time.
NOTES:
• You need to connect the cords to the center unit (and attach the supplied stand) before attaching it to the wall.
• DO NOT plug the power cord into an AC outlet before attaching the center unit to the wall.
• When attaching the supplied stand to the center unit, connect the video cords, AV COMPULINK cord, and so on by passing them through the
holes at the bottom of the stand, and do not attach the legs to the stand. See page 9.
1 Select the place (wooden wall) where the center unit is to be attached.
Avoid a plywood or plasterboard wall.
2 For reinforcement purposes, prepare the wooden board
which will be used to attach the center unit to the wall.
Before proceeding, check the position of the supports inside the wall.
Use a sturdy board sized as below:
• A (Height):
Higher than the unit
• B (Width):
Wider than the distance between the two supports inside the
wall
• C (Thickness): 9 mm to 15 mm
