Getting Started

Setting Up Your TV

Some TV models are packaged with a detached Table-Top Stand so you can mount your TV to a wall right away. See page 41 (Using a Wall-Mount Bracket) if you want to mount the TV to a wall. If you are not mounting the TV to a wall, you will need to attach the Table-Top Stand. You will need a Phillips screwdriver (not supplied) and the supplied screws to complete the task. Look for the supplied Startup Guide. Be sure to consider the following while setting up your TV:

 Disconnect all cables when carrying the

TV.

 Carry the TV with the adequate number of

people; larger size TVs require two or more people.

 Correct hand placement while carrying the

TV is very important for safety and to avoid damage.

 Do not put stress on the LCD panel or the

frame around the screen.

Securing the TV

Sony strongly recommends taking measures to prevent the TV from toppling over. Unsecured TVs may topple and result in property damage, serious bodily injury or even death.

Preventing the TV from Toppling

 Secure the TV to a wall and/or Stand.  Do not allow children to play or climb on

furniture and TV sets.

 Avoid placing or hanging items on the TV.  Never install the TV on:

 slippery, unstable and/or uneven

surfaces.

 furniture that can easily be used as

steps, such as a chest of drawers.

 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 protrudes out from the Stand (not supplied). If the Table-Top Stand protrudes out from the Stand, it may cause TV set to topple over, fall down, and cause personal injury or damage to the TV.

 Ensure your TV has adequate ventilation,

see page 42.

 For best picture quality, do not expose the

screen to direct illumination or sunlight.

 Avoid installing the TV in a room with

reflective wall and floor materials.

 Avoid moving the TV from a cold area to a

warm area. Sudden room temperature changes may cause moisture condensation. This may cause the TV to show poor picture and/or poor color. Should this occur, allow moisture to evaporate completely before powering the TV on.

 Route all AC power cords and connecting

cables so that they are not accessible to curious children.

the TV

Consider the following measures when securing your TV to a Stand (not supplied).

1 Secure the Stand for the TV.

Make sure the Stand can adequately support the weight of the TV. Use two angle braces (not supplied) to secure the Stand. For each angle brace use the appropriate hardware to:

 Attach one side of the angle brace to

the wall stud.

 Attach the other side to the Stand.

2 Secure the TV to the Stand.

Use the optional hardware listed as follows (not supplied):

 M6 machine screws (screwed into the

TV's rear cover).

 A screw or similar (attach it to the

Stand).

 Rope or chain (strong enough to

support the weight of the TV). Make sure that there is no excess slack in the rope or chain.

The length of the M6 machine screw differs depending on the rope or chain diameter. Please refer to below illustration.

3 Anchor the TV to the wall by using

bolts, wall anchor and chain (or rope).

Please see below illustration for M6 eye bolt length.

Note

• Your TV is shipped with screws attached to the

rear of the TV depending on the TV model. (They are fastened in the screw holes for wall mounting.) Be sure to remove the upper two screws prior to anchoring the TV to a wall.

• Securing the TV to the Stand without securing

the TV and the Stand to the wall provides minimum protection against the TV toppling over. For further protection, be sure to follow the three measures recommended.

Precautions

How to care for your BRAVIA TV

Safety is very important. Please read and follow the safety documentation (Safety Booklet) separately provided.

Unplug the TV and other connected equipment from the wall outlet before you begin cleaning your TV.

 Wipe the LCD

screen gently with a soft cloth.

 Stubborn stains may be removed with a

cloth slightly moistened with a solution of mild soap and warm water.

 If using a chemically pretreated cloth,

please follow the instruction provided on the package.

 Never spray water or detergent directly on

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 strong solvents such as a

thinner, alcohol or benzine for cleaning.

 Do not plug in the TV into the wall outlet

until the moisture from cleaning has

evaporated. The TV should also be placed on a stable surface to prevent it from toppling over (see page 8). If you have young children or pets at home, check regularly to ensure the TV is securely fastened.

remote control; try turning off the fluorescent lamps.

 If you are having problems with the

remote control, reinsert or replace your batteries and make sure that they are correctly inserted.

Connection TV to the Internet

Setting up the Internet Connection

Using the network feature you can connect the TV to the Internet. The set-up procedure differs depending on the type of network and LAN router. Before setting up the Internet connection, be sure to set up a LAN router. Check your wireless LAN environment using the following chart.
