Hello Poptopbob! As a general guideline, the rear of the TV should be 2 to 6 inches away from the wall and the sides of the TV should have about 4 inches of ventilation space to ensure reliable operation and to protect it from overheating, these slots and openings must never be blocked or covered. ~Jeannette
