To attach the stand to your LG 32LB551U-ZC television, please follow these steps. Note that the procedure may vary slightly depending on your specific model series (LB55/LB56/LB62).

1. Place the screen facing down on a cushioned table or flat surface to protect the screen from scratches.

Connect the LG 32LB551U-ZC to a wall antenna socket using an RF cable (75 Ω).

For optimal performance, consider the following:

• If you need to use more than two TVs, use a signal splitter.

• If the image quality is poor, install a signal amplifier properly to improve the image quality.

• If the image quality is poor with a connected antenna, try to realign the antenna in the correct direction.

• Please note that an antenna cable and converter are not supplied with the TV.

• Supported DTV Audio formats are MPEG, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, and HE-AAC.

You can connect various external devices such as HD receivers, DVD players, VCRs, audio systems, USB storage devices, PCs, and gaming devices to your LG 32LB551U-ZC. The connection method depends on the available ports on your TV and the external device.

• **HDMI:** For the best picture and audio quality, use an HDMI cable to connect devices like a Blu-Ray/DVD player, HD Cable Box, PC, or gaming console. Some models have an HDMI 2 port that supports MHL (Mobile High-Definition Link).

• **USB:** Connect a USB storage device to the USB IN port to view media files.

• **Component:** Connect a device like a DVD/Blu-Ray player using a component cable (Green, Blue, Red for video) and RCA audio cables (Red, White).

• **Optical Digital Audio Out:** Connect to a digital audio system for high-quality sound.

• **Headphone Out:** Connect headphones to the H/P OUT port.

• **LAN:** On models with a LAN port, you can connect to your network.

To prevent scratches or damage and to ensure safe transportation, please follow this advice:

• Avoid touching the screen at all times, as this may result in damage.

• Before moving or lifting the TV, disconnect the power cord and all cables.

• When holding the TV, the screen should face away from you to avoid damage.

• Hold the top and bottom of the TV frame firmly. Do not hold the transparent part, speaker, or speaker grill area.

• When transporting a large TV, there should be at least 2 people.

• Keep the TV upright during transport; never turn it on its side or tilt it left or right.

• Do not expose the TV to jolts or excessive vibration.

• Do not apply excessive pressure to the frame chassis, as this may cause flexing and damage the screen.

1. Lift and tilt the TV into its upright position on a table.

2. Leave a 10 cm (minimum) space from the wall for proper ventilation.

3. Connect the power cord to a wall outlet.

4. To prevent the TV from tipping over, you can secure it to a wall (this feature is not available for all models). To do this, insert and tighten eye-bolts into the back of the TV. Mount wall brackets to the wall. Connect the eye-bolts and wall brackets tightly with a sturdy rope, keeping the rope horizontal.

LG recommends that wall mounting be performed by a qualified professional installer. Use an authorized LG wall mount that meets the VESA standard.

1. Disconnect the power first, and then move or install the TV.

2. Carefully attach an optional wall mount bracket to the rear of the TV.

3. Install the wall mount bracket on a solid wall perpendicular to the floor.

Do not over-tighten the screws, as this may cause damage to the TV and void your warranty. The length of screws may differ depending on the wall mount; ensure you use the proper length. Below are the standard dimensions for the wall mount kits:
