Your New BRAVIA® LCD HDTV
Congratulations! Your new BRAVIA® TV opens the door to a “Full HD Experience”. This guide will explain how to get the most from your new High-Definition TV.
Please take these steps before you power up your BRAVIA:
■Register online at: http://www.sony.com/registration (from U.S.A.) http://www.sonystyle.ca/registration (from Canada)
■Make sure you’ve removed all accessory contents from packaging.
■Install 2 AA batteries (supplied separately) in your remote control.
■Determine whether you will mount your TV on a wall or place it on a floor stand. Sony wall-mounting brackets are designed to provide the best fit.
■Give your TV 2 3/8 inches (6 cm) of space behind it to properly ventilate.
You must get HD programming to experience the stunning detail of HDTV.
The quality of the image you see on your BRAVIA can only be as high as the quality of the signal it is displaying.
Contact your cable or satellite provider to upgrade your service to HD. Receive over-the- air HD broadcasts with an HD-quality antenna (www.antennaweb.org) and discover the wealth of entertainment now available on super-high-resolution Blu-ray Disc™.
■Turn off and unplug all components before making connections.
■Do not turn on the TV until connection setup is completed.

Watching Your TV
Select Your Content Source
Whether you are watching cable, satellite or broadcast TV; playing a VCR, DVD or Blu-ray Disc; or connecting to your PC, you need to choose the correct input using your remote control:
■ Press on your remote control to display on-screen the Shortcuts menu, then select External Inputs and will appear the external inputs list; or
■ Press to display the external inputs list and choose the desired input.
Adjust Screen Shape and Aspect Ratio
High-definition and standard-definition signals are transmitted with different aspect ratios (the width-to-height ratio of the image). Most HD signals use a wide screen aspect ratio of 16:9. The 16:9 fills your BRAVIA screen, maintaining a crisp, clear, vivid picture.
Most standard-definition signals use a boxy 4:3 aspect ratio. When a 4:3 image is displayed on an HDTV, you will see black bars on the sides. The picture quality may not be as sharp as with HD sources.
• Press on your remote control to display the Wide Mode setting of your preference.
Customize Sound and Picture Quality
You can choose optimum sound and picture settings to match the content you are displaying on your TV:
■ Press on your remote control and select Picture or Sound menu, then choose the appropriate setting for your content.
■ Use the remote control to quickly adjust picture quality.
