Precautions
Viewing the TV
Some people may experience discomfort
(such as eye strain, fatigue, or nausea) while watching 3D video images or playing stereoscopic 3D games. Sony recommends that all viewers take regular breaks while watching 3D video images or playing stereoscopic 3D games. The length and frequency of necessary breaks will vary from person to person. You must decide what works best. If you experience any discomfort, you should stop watching the 3D video images or playing stereoscopic 3D games until the discomfort ends; consult a doctor if you believe necessary. You should also review (i) the instruction manual of any other device or media used with this television and (ii) our website (http:// www.sony-europe.com/myproduct) for the latest information. The vision of young children (especially those under six years old) is still under development. Consult your doctor (such as a pediatrician or eye doctor) before allowing young children to watch 3D video images or play stereoscopic 3D games. Adults should supervise young children to ensure they follow the recommendations listed above.
Do not use, store, or leave the 3D
Glasses or the battery near fire, or in places with a high temperature, e.g., in direct sunlight, or in sun-heated cars.
When using the simulated 3D function,
please note that the displayed image is modified from the original due to the conversion done by this television.
View the TV in moderate light, as
viewing the TV in poor light or 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.
Do not push or scratch the front filter, or
place objects on top of 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. Some fluorescent tubes used in this TV set also contain mercury (except for LED backlight LCD TV). Follow your local ordinances and regulations for disposal.
Handling and cleaning the screen surface/cabinet of the TV set
Be sure to unplug the mains lead connected to the TV set from mains socket before cleaning.
To avoid material degradation or screen coating degradation, observe the following precautions.
To remove dust from the screen surface/
cabinet, wipe gently with a soft cloth. If dust is persistent, wipe with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a diluted mild detergent solution.
Do not spray water or detergent directly
on the TV set. It may drip to the bottom of the screen or exterior parts, and may cause a malfunction.
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.
Periodic vacuuming of the ventilation
openings is recommended to ensure to proper ventilation.
When adjusting the angle of the TV set,
move it slowly so as to prevent the TV set from moving or slipping off from its table stand.
Optional Equipment
Keep optional components or any
equipment emitting electromagnetic radiation away from the TV set. Otherwise picture distortion and/or noisy sound may occur.
This equipment has been tested and
found to comply with the limits set out in the EMC Directive using a connection signal cable shorter than 3 meters.
(Caution about handling the remote control) Notes
Observe the correct polarity when
inserting batteries.
Do not use different types of batteries
together or mix old and new batteries.
Dispose of batteries in an
environmentally friendly way. Certain regions may regulate the disposal of batteries. Please consult your local authority.
Handle the remote with care. Do not
drop or step on it, or spill liquid of any kind onto it.
Do not place the remote in a location
near a heat source, a place subject to direct sunlight, or a damp room.

Satellite Auto Tuning: The following procedures may be required depending on the area:
1 Please select “Preferred Satellite” or
“General Satellite”.
2 For “Preferred Satellite”, select your
preferred operator.
“Satellite Auto Tuning” automatically tunes in available satellite channels. Digital Satellite Equipment Control (DiSEqC) 1.0 management allows setting of up to four different channels. The following settings are independent for each connection. To set-up DiSEqC input in the “DiSEqC Control”, use “LNB Configuration”.
1 “Scan Type” and “Advanced Settings” (for common satellite setting- Satellite 1 to 4): Allows you to set tuning settings in more detail to better find the type of services you would prefer to tune. “Scan Type”: If no channel is found using “Network Scan”, try “Full Scan”.
“Full Scan”: Performs a complete frequency scan and guarantees tuning to all possible programmes for the currently set LNB configuration. Previously-tuned programmes will be lost. “Network Scan”: Performs a scan in the transponders of a network (aka NIT scan). Since “Network Scan” is faster than “Full Scan”, it is recommended when tuning to a known network (normally associated with a satellite). A transponder must be specified, from which network information (other transponders) will be retrieved. Previously-tuned programmes will be lost.
2 “LNB Configuration” (for each satellite setting- Satellite 1 to 4): In the case of a non-standard LNB (low­noise block), manual setting is available.
– In the case of a single satellite channel,
you can leave it on the initial setting.
– For two satellite channels, you need to
set “Toneburst A” (1st satellite) and “Toneburst B” (2nd satellite) in the “DiSEqC Control” setting.
– Or you can use DiSEqC command A
(1st satellite) and B (2nd satellite), if your LNB or multi switch can handle these commands.
– For four satellite channels, DiSEqC
control A, B, C, and D is required.
“LNB Low Band Frequency” and “LNB High Band Frequency”:
– Specifies LNB frequency bands. Be
sure to check your LNB documentation to set frequencies (normally appears as “L.O. frequency”).
– The default values are for a universal
LNB.
– If your LNB can handle both bands
(low and high), you can specify both. If it handles only one, specify low band.
“22 kHz Tone”: If your LNB is dual band (low and high bands), set to “Auto”. The TV will take care of everything automatically; otherwise, set to “Off”. “LNB Voltage”: Specifies the set voltage for a dual polarisation LNB.
13/18V: default.14/19V: if LNB cable is over 60m
long.
– Off: if an external power supply can be
used.
3 “Transponder” (for each satellite setting- Satellite 1 to 4): There is no need to set the transponder when you select “Full Scan”.
“Scan for new services”:
Tunes to a single transponder.This is an incremental scan, and it
should be used in cases when a new transponder is added to a satellite.
– Previously-tuned programmes are kept
and found ones are added to the program list of the satellite connection you are editing.
1 Press HOME, then select > “Digital
Set-up” > “Satellite Auto Tuning”.
2 Follow the instruction on the Satellite
Auto Tuning.
~
“Scan for new services” is unavailable while
performing the initial set-up.
When you scan for the new services, please
check if the satellite signal is available.

Digital Auto Tuning: When you select “Cable”, we recommend that you select “Quick Scan” for quick tuning. Set “Frequency” and “Network ID” according to the information supplied from your cable provider. If no channel is found using “Quick Scan”, try “Full Scan” (though it may take some time).
~
“Full Scan” may not be available depending
on your region/country.
Programme Sorting: Changes the order of analogue channels stored in the TV.
1 Press F/f to select the channel you want
to move to a new position, then press .
2 Press F/f to select the new position for
the channel, then press .
~
For satellite channels, select “Satellite
Programme Sorting” in “Digital Set-up” of “Settings” to change the order of satellite channels in the same procedure above after initial set-up completed.
