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. 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 Table-Top 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.

• Do not put stress on the LCD panel or the frame around the screen.

the panel, not the front part.

• 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.

• Hold the TV with one hand to avoid it dropping when attaching.

• Align the TV from the top, slide it in until the guide pins cannot be seen.

• If using an electric screwdriver, set the torque at approximately 1.5 N·m {15 kgf·cm}.

• When detaching the Table-Top Stand, reverse the attaching procedure. Do not remove any screws other than those used when attaching the Table-Top Stand.

Getting Started

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. ❑ Route all AC power cords and connecting cables so that they are not accessible to curious

children.

Recommended Measures to Secure the TV

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

1 Secure the stand for the TV.

Make sure the TV 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 TV stand.

Angle braces

2 Secure the TV to the stand.

Use the optional hardware listed below (not supplied):

• Machine screw (screwed into the screw hole of the TV).

• A screw or similar (attach it to the TV 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.

An alternative way to secure the TV is with an optional Sony Support Belt Kit. The Sony Support Belt Kit is available as an optional accessory, depending on your TV model.
