Make sure bolts and spacers are positioned correctly.

Refer to the user manual of your TV for the correct mounting material.

Removing your TV

  1. Unplug the cables from your TV.
  2. Loosen the small tabs on the strips Ⓒ with the allen key and turn the tabs outward to release the interface plate Ⓑ.

There’s plenty of help waiting for you, online:

 

Simple troubleshooting

Found a problem you can’t fix? Don’t panic… try these!

Problem

Cause

Solution

Problem

‘I don’t have the right bolts for my TV!’

Cause

The world of TV technology is always changing – it can be hard to keep up sometimes. So, it might be the case that the correct bolt size is not included… you’re just too advanced!

Solution

Just ask Vogel’s Consumer Care to request a service kit, and we’ll send everything you need. Click here to contact Vogel's Consumer Care.

Problem

‘My wall bolts have snapped!’

Cause

You might not be drilling deep enough… or your drill could be too blunt, so that the hole is too narrow and the screw gets stuck.

Solution

Use another hole in the wall plate to fix the wall mount to the wall. Make sure you use a sharp drill of the correct size. Vacuum the hole after drilling. Check if the entire screw (except its head) fits in the hole before placing the plugs.

 

FAQs

‘Where can I request the correct bolts for my TV (a service kit)?’

Whatever you need, simply contact your local Vogel's dealer or Vogel's. Click here to contact Vogel's Consumer Care.

‘Where can I find installation videos?’

The installation video can be found at the product page of your product on our website. It can also be found on our YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/c/VogelsForSure

‘How high do I need to hang my TV?’

The center of your TV should ideally be positioned at eye level, while seated. The result is dependent on the location of the holes on the back of your TV. After attaching the strips to the TV, determine the distance between the center of the TV and the center of the wallplate. This helps you determine where to drill your first hole.

‘How high do I need to hang my TV in case of a tilt mount?’

When a wall mount with tilt function is used, your TV can be mounted above eye level.

‘Which bolts or screws do I need to use?’

Vogel's offers a complete assembly kit with all mounting materials included in the box, for both your TV and wall. You need four bolts to attach the mount to the TV, and three or four screws for the wall (dependent on your model). Do you miss the correct bolts for your TV? Please contact your local Vogel's dealer. Click here to contact Vogel's Consumer Care.

‘Why do you use Fischer© plugs?’

The Fischer© DuoPower plug is widely regarded as the best standard in plugs. Don’t settle for less!

‘What is VESA?’

VESA is a standard pattern of mounting location holes on the back of a TV which allows many standard TV mounts to be easily fitted to your TV.
