Consumers using the TV’s supporting stand should immediately detach it and place the television in a safe location away from children. Contact LG for instructions on how to inspect the unit and to obtain replacement screws and stand parts, including help from a technician for a free pair. Consumers who wall-mounted their TVs do not need to stop using them.
The recall involves four LG 86-inch smart TV models: 86UQ8000AUB, 86UQ7070ZUD, 86UQ7590PUD and 86NANO75UQA. The TVs, not including the stands, are 86 inches diagonally, 43.5 inches high, 76 inches wide and 2.4 inches deep. The serial number of the recalled product begins with 202RM, 203RM, 204RM, 205RM, 206RM, 207RM or 208RM and is at the bottom right of the back of the TV, along with the model number.
Consumers also can check the serial number by pressing the mute button three times rapidly on the original LG remote control provided with their TV.
