I did this recently, I used wallplugs, but instead of the 2.5 inch screws supplied, I used 4 inch for good luck. P.S. I wouldn't fix a tv unit to plaster board, not unless You find the stud behind it.

Depends on the receiving medium (wall!!)
If concrete or brick just use wallplugs. The holes in the bracket will indicate to you just what size of screw you need.
If the wall is plasterboard you need the type of plugs sold for that.
Places like HOMEBASE sell these things in small packs marked up with the name eg. plasterboard plugs.
Be aware though that there would have been a limit to the weight that the bracket is intended to hold. Perhaps go back to the place you bought it and look at another pack for guidance.

all you need to do is find a stud and either screw it to the wall or use lag bolts ( for which you will need a socket set) Easy as icing a cake.

A big hammer and some nails, start in the middle and work your way out.
