Always use TV stands that are strong and stable enough to support the weight and size of this TV. Due to the unique floating design of this TV, Sony highly recommend you use their designated stands, SU-28FQ1 for KV-28FQ75 model and SU-32FQ1 for KV-32FQ75 model. If this recommended option is not taken, it is vitally important to ensure that any cabinet or table has a large enough surface area to accommodate all three legs of the TV without any overlap. Do not block or cover the ventilation openings. For ventilation, leave a space of at least 10 cm all around the set. Table of Contents
