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. 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 and the supplied screws to
complete the task. Look for the supplied TableTop Stand instruction leaflet.
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.
Attaching the Table-Top Stand
Refer to the supplied Table-Top Stand
instruction leaflet for proper attachment for
some TV models.
1 Gently slide the TV unit onto the
Table-Top Stand and align the screw
holes.
~
• Do not put stress on the LCD panel or the frame
around the screen.
• Be careful to not pinch your hands or the AC
power cord when you install the TV unit to the
Table-Top Stand.
For XBR-52/46HX909 For KDL-55/46/40HX800
• Ensure your TV has adequate ventilation,
see page 15.
• 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.
2 Use the supplied screws to attach the
TV unit to the Table-Top Stand.
~
• If you use an electric screwdriver, set the
tightening torque at approximately 1.5 N·m
{15 kgf·cm}.

KDL-40HX800, after all the screws are
tighten cover the Table-Top Stand with
the supplied stand rear cover.
