Preparation for mounting

The TV ceiling mount must be secured to a strong ceiling. Ensure that the surface of the ceiling is appropriate for the TV mount. Do not mount the product if the texture of the ceiling is not suitable. Thin partition walls or plasterboard (including plasterboard sloping ceilings) are normally not suitable. However, special dowels are sometimes available for these types of surfaces. If in doubt, contact a specialist before mounting the product. Mounting materials may vary depending on the mounting surface (e.g. for wood, only use screws and no dowels). In order to ensure that the mount is fixed securely, always determine the load-bearing capacity of your ceiling. The ceiling must be able to support 10 times the maximum weight of the ceiling mount and the attached TV/monitor.

Plan the mounting location carefully so that the ceiling mount and your TV/monitor will be at the desired height/position.
If necessary, use a spirit level.Ensure that no cables or wires are damaged during drilling/screwing. Accidentally drilling into electrical cables can cause a fatal electric shock!
When working with electrical tools (such as a drill), pay attention to your safety and wear safety goggles. Long hair must not get into turning parts. Do not wear rings or other jewellery.
Ensure that nobody is underneath the ceiling mount when you are fixing it to the ceiling.

Assembly

Remove the individual components from the packaging. Place the components onto a table and refer to the parts list to ensure that no components are missing.

If any components are missing, contact your dealer for a replacement. Do not attempt to mount the product, as it may become loose and fall onto your head, causing serious injuries.

Parts list

Securing the motorised ceiling mount

Start by securing the ceiling mount (A) to your concrete, brick, or other ceiling using the screws and dowels provided (see parts list). The mounting instructions are the same for sloping ceilings.

Use the drill template provided to mark the positions of the drill holes. Drill the holes to the correct diameter and depth (refer to the specifications in the diagram above).
Insert the two screws that you are going to fix to the key-shaped holes on the ceiling mount, allowing them to protrude about 5 mm from the ceiling.
If you are securing the TV mount to a non-mineral surface or ceiling (e.g. wood), follow the steps above, but use the screws without dowels and make the holes slightly smaller (4.5 mm wide and 55 mm deep).
If you are securing the TV mount to a surface in a lightweight construction, refer to the specific instructions for the mounting components that you are using.
Slide the TV mount into the screws on the ceiling/surface and insert the remainder of the screws as shown above.
Align the TV mount in a straight position and secure all of the screws with a Phillips screwdriver.

Assembling the VESA adapter

Remove the two pre-inserted screws from the VESA plate (B) (see diagram above) and keep them in a safe place until you are ready to attach your TV/monitor to the ceiling mount.
Remove the pre-inserted screws from the VESA adapters (E & F).
Fix the four VESA adapters to the VESA plate (B) using the screws that you just removed (see diagram above). Ensure that the plates are positioned correctly. Do not tighten the screws fully.

Attaching the VESA adapter to your TV

Lay your TV/monitor flat on a soft, clean surface with the screen facing down to ensure that there is no pressure on the screen and to prevent the screen from getting scratched. Protect valuable furniture using a suitable pad or cloth.
If the back of your monitor is flat, screw the VESA adapter directly onto the monitor. If the back is curved, place suitable spacers (M-H or M-I) underneath. Four different possibilities are shown below.

Monitors with a flat back

Monitors with a curved back

Before attaching the VESA adapter, ensure that there are suitable mounting holes on the back of your monitor.
The existing monitor stand normally has to be removed before you can attach the monitor to a ceiling mount. For details, refer to your TV/monitor operating instructions. Remove the monitor’s stand; depending on the design, this will either be screwed or clipped in.
Always ensure that you use the correct screws when securing the VESA adapter to the back of your monitor. The thread on the screws must match the screw holes on the monitor and must not be too long, otherwise the monitor may be damaged.
The screws must not be too short, however, otherwise the stand will not be securely attached to the monitor. The screws must be screwed into the threaded fixture holes on the monitor with at least 5 full 360° turns.
The screws for the ceiling mount/monitor are usually included, but you may need to purchase other screws depending on the design of your monitor. Do not use any force when tightening the screws, otherwise you may damage the monitor and void the warranty!
If you are in any doubt about the length of the screws required, contact the monitor manufacturer or consult a specialist.

Attaching your TV/monitor to the ceiling mount

• Warning! Carefully mount the product according to the instructions, otherwise the TV or the ceiling mount may become loose and result in costly damage or injury!• Ensure that the supporting arm on the ceiling mount (A) is in a vertical position.• Remove the two bottommost screws (located opposite to each other) from the VESA plate (B).• The other screw on the VESA plate must remain in place and protrude approximately 3-4 mm.• Hang the monitor onto one of the key-shaped holes on the ceiling mount using the screw on the VESA plate. You can choose from four different mounting positions.

Depending on the size and design of your monitor, it may be a good idea to ask another person to help you hold the monitor in position while you secure it to the ceiling mount.Insert the other two screws through the oval slots and screw them into the thread on the VESA plate. Once you have attached your TV/monitor in the desired position, tighten all three screws using a Phillips screwdriver.

• Connect all necessary cables (e.g. video, antenna, and power cables) to your TV/monitor. To protect the cables, guide them through the cable conduit (J).• Ensure that there is enough slack in the cable so that the ceiling mount and the TV/monitor can move freely without the cable becoming trapped.• Use the cable ties to hold the cables in place. Once you have connected all of the cables, attach the decorative covers (D) to each side of the mount.

Connecting the power adapter

• Find a suitable place to run the power cable (H) (approx. 1.5 m long) and stick the adhesive cable clips (K) to a clean and strong surface.• Connect the cable to the connection socket (1) on the ceiling mount’s motor unit.• Connect the low voltage cable on the power adapter to the low voltage socket (2) on the ceiling mount’s motor unit.• The LED indicator (3) turns on.• Connect the power adapter to a mains socket.

Using the remote control

Do not operate the ceiling mount until you have finished mounting it in accordance with the instructions. Only adjust the mount using the built-in motor, otherwise the moving mechanism may become entangled or incorrectly stowed.
