If a television is not positioned in a sufficiently stable location, it can be potentially hazardous due to falling. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:

• Using cabinets or stands recommended by the manufacturer of the television.

• Only using furniture that can safely support the television.

• Ensuring the television is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.

• Not placing the television on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television to a suitable support.

• Not standing the televisions on cloth or other materials placed between the television and supporting furniture.

• Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television or its controls.

Notes for Australia and New Zealand model

This product is ENERGY RATING qualified in the “Home” mode. ENERGY RATING is a program designed to promote energy efficient products and practices.

• When the TV is initially set up, it is designed to meet ENERGY RATING requirements while maintaining optimum picture quality.

• Changes to certain features, settings, and functionalities of this TV (e.g. TV Guide, Picture/Sound, Eco-Setting) can slightly change the power consumption.

Depending upon such changed settings (e.g. “Shop” mode), the power consumption may vary which possibly could exceed the stated energy rating.

To reset the TV to ENERGY RATING qualified settings, select “Home” mode from the initial set-up procedure in “Factory Settings” under the “Set-up” menu.

Using BRAVIA Sync with Control for HDMI

The control for HDMI function enables the TV to communicate with the connected equipment that is compatible with the function, using HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control). For example, by connecting Sony equipment that is compatible with control for HDMI (with HDMI cables), you can control them together. Be sure to connect the equipment correctly, and make the necessary settings.

Control for HDMI

• Automatically turns the connected

equipment off when you switch the TV to standby mode using the remote.

• Automatically turns the TV on and

switches the input to the connected equipment when the equipment starts to play.

• If you turn on a connected audio system

while the TV is on, the sound output switches from the TV speaker to the audio system.

• Adjusts the volume (2 +/–) and mutes the

sound (%) of a connected audio system.

• You can operate the connected Sony

equipment that has the BRAVIA Sync logo by the TV remote by pressing:

– N/x/X/m/M to operate the connected

equipment directly.

– SYNC MENU to display the menu of the connected

HDMI equipment on the screen. After displaying the menu, you can operate the menu screen by using F/f/G/g, , colour buttons, and RETURN.

– OPTIONS to display “Device Control,” then select

options from “Options” and “Content List” to operate the equipment.

– Refer to the instruction manual of the equipment for

available control.

• If “Control for HDMI” of the TV is set to

“On,” “Control for HDMI” of the connected equipment is also automatically switched to “On.”

To connect the equipment that is compatible with control for HDMI

Connect the compatible equipment and the TV with an HDMI cable. When connecting an audio system, be sure to also connect the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack of the TV and the audio system using an optical audio cable. For details, see page 20.

To make the control for HDMI settings

The control for HDMI settings must be set on both the TV side and connected equipment side. See “HDMI Set-up” (page 37) for the TV side settings. For settings on the connected equipment, refer to the operating instructions for that equipment.

Using Home Network Features

With this TV, you can enjoy contents stored in DLNA-compatible devices on the home network. Devices that store and provide contents, such as photo/music/video files, are called “server.” The TV receives the photo/music/video files from the server via the network, and you can enjoy them on the TV even in other rooms. To enjoy the home network, a DLNAcompatible device (VAIO, Cyber-shot, etc.) is necessary as a server. In addition, when you connect your TV to the Internet, you can enjoy displaying a photograph that shows its location on the map (page 25).

• You will need to contract with an Internet service provider to connect to the Internet.
