Precautions

Viewing the TV

Some people may experience discomfort (such as eye strain, fatigue, or nausea) while watching 3D video images or playing 3D video games. Sony recommends that all viewers take regular breaks while watching 3D video images or playing 3D video 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 3D video 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-asia.com/support) 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 3D video games. Adults should supervise young children to ensure they follow the recommendations listed above.

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. 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.

*Type 1 is the easier set up if your router has an automatic setting button, e.g. Air Station One-Touch Secure System (AOSS). Most of the latest routers have this function. Check your router.

Type 1: Follow the configuration for “Secured Network with Wi-Fi Protected Set-up (WPS)”. Type 2: Follow the configuration for “Secured Network without Wi-Fi Protected Set-up (WPS)”.

Type 3: Follow the configuration for “Unsecured Network with Any Type of Wireless LAN Router”.

Type 4: Follow the configuration for “Wired network setup”.

Type 1: Secured network with Wi-Fi protected Set-up (WPS)

The WPS standard makes security of a wireless home network as straightforward as pressing the WPS button on the wireless LAN router. Before setting up a wireless LAN, check the location of the WPS button on the router and verify how to use it.

For security purpose, “WPS (PIN)” provides a PIN code for your router. PIN code is renewed every time you select “WPS (PIN)”.

1 Press HOME, then select > “Network” > “Network Set-up”.

2 Select “Wireless Set-up”.

3 Select “WPS (Push Button)” for Push Button method or “WPS (PIN)” for PIN method.

~

Button name of the WPS may differ depending on the router (e.g. AOSS button).

4 Follow the instructions on the set-up screen.

Type 2: Secured network without Wi-Fi protected Set-up (WPS)

To set up a wireless LAN, SSID (wireless network name) and security key (WEP or WPA key) will be required. If you do not know them, consult the instruction manual of your router.

1 Press HOME, then select > “Network” > “Network Set-up”.

2 Select “Wireless Set-up”.

3 Select “Scan”, then select a network from the list of scanned wireless networks.

4 Follow the instructions on the set-up screen.

~

If you use WPS for network set-up, the security settings of the wireless LAN router activate, and any equipment previously connected to the wireless LAN in a non-secure status will be disconnected from the network.

In this case, activate the security settings of the disconnected equipment and then reconnect. Or, you can deactivate the security settings of the wireless LAN router, and then connect the equipment to a TV in a non-secure status.
