result in an explosion or leakage of flammable liquid or gas.
Stability Hazard
The television set may fall, causing serious personal injury or
death.
Never place a television set in an unstable location. A television
set may fall, causing serious personal injury or death. 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 set.
• Only using furniture that can safely support the television set.
• Ensuring the television set is not overhanging the edge of the
supporting furniture.
• Not placing th e television set on tall furniture (for example,
cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture
and the television set to a suitable support.
• Not placing the television set on cloth or other materials that
may be located between the television set and supporting
furniture.
• Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture
to reach the television set or its controls.
If your existing television set is being retained and relocated, the
same considerations as above should be applied.
Installation/Set-up
Install and use the TV set in accordance with the instructions
below in order to avoid any risk of fire, electric shock or damage
and/or injuries.
Apparatus connected to the protective earthing of the building
installation through the mains connection or through other
apparatus with a connection to protective earthing – and to a
television distribution system using coaxial cable, may in some
circumstances create a fire hazard. Connection to a television
distribution system therefore has to be provided through a device
providing electrical isolation below a certain frequency range
(galvanic isolator, see EN 60728-11).
Installation
• The TV set should be installed near an easily accessible AC
power outlet (mains soc ket).
• Place the TV on a stable, level surface to prevent it from falling
over and causing personal injury or property damage.
• Install the TV where it cannot be pulled, pushed, or knocked
over.
• Install the TV so that the TV’s Table-Top Stand does not protrude
out from the TV stand (not supplied). If the Table-Top Stand
protrudes out from the TV stand, it may cause TV set to topple
over, fall down, and cause personal injury or damage to the TV.
• Only qualified service personnel should carry out wall-mount
installations.
• For safety reasons, it is strongly recommended that you use
Sony acce ssories , inclu ding:
• Be sure to use the screws supplied with the Wall-Mount Bracket
when attaching the Wall-Mount Bracket to the TV set. The
supplied screws are designed as indicated by illustration when
measured from the attaching surface of the Wall-Mount Bracket.
The diameter and length of the screws differ depending on the
Wall-Mount Bracket model.
Use of screws other than those supplied may result in internal
damage to the TV set or cause it to fall, etc.

during long period of time, strains your eyes.
• When using headphones, adjust the volume so as to avoid
excessive levels, as hearing damage may result.
LCD Screen
• Although the LCD screen is made with high-precision
technology and 99.99 % or more of the pixels are effective,
black dots may appear or bright points of light (red, blue, or
green) may appear constantly on the LCD screen. This is a
structural property of the LCD screen and is not a malfunction.

this TV set. The image may be uneven or the LCD screen may be
damaged.
• If this TV set is used in a cold place, a smear may occur in the
picture or the picture may become dark. This does not indicate a
failure. These phenomena disappear as the temperature rises.
• Ghosting may occur when still pictures are displayed
continuously. It may disappear after a few moments.
• The screen and cabinet get warm when this TV set is in use. This
is not a malfunction.
• The LCD screen contains a small amount of liquid crystal. Follow
your local ordinances and regulations for disposal.
Handling and cleaning the screen surface/
cabinet of the TV set

the TV set. It may drip to the bottom of the
screen or exterior parts and enter the TV set,
and may cause damage to the TV set.
• Never use any type of abrasive pad,
alkaline/acid cleaner, scouring powder, or
volatile solvent, such as alcohol, benzene,
thinner or insecticide. Using such materials or maintaining
prolonged contact with rubber or vinyl materials may result in
damage to the screen surface and cabinet material.

steps.
1 Restart your TV by pressing the power button
on the remote control until a message
