Getting Started
Setting Up Your Monitor
This monitor is packaged with a detached Table-Top Stand so you can mount your monitor to a
wall right away. If you are not mounting the monitor to a wall, you will need to attach the TableTop Stand. You will need a Phillips screwdriver and the supplied screws to complete the task. Look
for the attachment instructions provided with the unit.
Be sure to consider the following while setting up your monitor:
• Disconnect all cables when carrying the monitor.
• Carry the monitor with the adequate number of people; larger size monitors require two or
more people.
• Correct hand placement while carrying the monitor is very important for safety and to avoid
damage.
• Ensure your monitor has adequate ventilation, see page 17.
• For best picture quality, do not expose the screen to direct illumination or sunlight.
• Avoid installing the monitor in a room with reflective wall and floor materials.
• Avoid moving the monitor from a cold area to a warm area. Sudden room temperature changes
may cause moisture condensation. This may cause the monitor to show poor picture and/or
poor color. Should this occur, allow moisture to evaporate completely before powering the
monitor on.
• Read the supplied Safety Booklet for additional safety information.
• When cable connection is completed, be sure to secure the monitor to a stable surface or mount it
to a wall. The designated Sony wall-mount bracket model and TV stand model name(s) are
available under the “Other Information” section of Operating Instructions. For details on securing
the monitor, see page 18.

Using a Wall-Mount Bracket
Wh
t
All models can be mounted to a wall using the Wall-Mount Bracket (not supplied) out of the box
as packaged.
Prepare the monitor for the Wall-Mount Bracket before making cable connections.
Sony strongly recommends that you use the Wall-Mount Bracket model designed for your
monitor (see page 49) and that wall-mounting of your monitor should be performed by a
Sony dealer or licensed contractor.
• Follow the instruction guide provided with the Wall-Mount Bracket for your model. You
may also need to refer to the online Reference Book for additional information for your
unit model. Sufficient expertise is required in installing this monitor, especially to
determine the strength of the wall for withstanding the monitor’s weight.
• Be sure to use the screws supplied with the Wall-Mount Bracket when attaching the
mounting hooks to the monitor. (Do not use the screws that are intended for the Table-Top
Stand attachment.)
The supplied M6 screws are designed so that they are 8 mm to 12 mm in length when
measured from the attaching surface of the mounting hook.
Use of screws other than those supplied with the bracket may result in internal damage to
the monitor or cause it to fall, etc.

Securing the Monitor
Sony strongly recommends taking measures to prevent the monitor from toppling over.
Unsecured monitors may topple and result in property damage, serious bodily injury or
even death.
Preventing the Monitor from Toppling
❑Secure the monitor to a wall and/or stand.
❑Do not allow children to play or climb on furniture and monitor.
❑Avoid placing or hanging items on the monitor.
❑Never install the monitor on:
• slippery, unstable and/or uneven surfaces.
• furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers.
❑Install the monitor 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 Monitor
Consider the following measures when securing your monitor to a TV stand (not supplied).
1Secure the stand for the monitor.
Make sure the TV stand can adequately support the weight of the monitor. 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.
18
Angle brace

2Secure the monitor to the stand.
Use the optional hardware listed below (not supplied):
• M4 × 12 machine screw (screwed into the monitor’s Table-Top Stand).
• A screw or similar (attach it to the TV stand).
• Rope or chain (strong enough to support the weight of the monitor). Make sure that there is
no excess slack in the rope or chain.
An alternative way to secure the monitor is with an optional Sony Support Belt Kit.

3Anchor the monitor to the wall.
Remove two screws from the top-most wall-mount holes.
Use the hardware listed below (not supplied):
• Two M6 × 8 mm anchor bolts (screw into the top-most wall-mount holes located on the rear
of the monitor).
• Rope or chain (attach to one M6 anchor bolt).
• Wall-anchor (attach to the wall stud) strong enough to support the weight of the monitor
(pass the rope through the wall-anchor, then attach to the other M6 anchor bolt).
