Notes for Australia and New Zealand model

This product is ENERGY RATING qualified in the “Home” mode. ENERGY RATING is a program designed to promote energy efficient products and practices.

• When the TV is initially set up, it is designed to meet ENERGY RATING requirements while maintaining optimum picture quality.

• Changes to certain features, settings, and functionalities of this TV (e.g. TV Guide, Picture/Sound, Eco-Setting) can slightly change the power consumption.

Depending upon such changed settings (e.g. “Shop” mode), the power consumption may vary which possibly could exceed the stated energy rating.

To reset the TV to ENERGY RATING qualified settings, select “Home” mode from the initial set-up procedure in “Factory Settings” under the “Set-up” menu.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

If a television is not positioned in a sufficiently stable location, it can be potentially hazardous due to falling. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:

• Using cabinets or stands recommended by the manufacturer of the television.

• Only using furniture that can safely support the television.

• Ensuring the television is not overhanging the edge of the

supporting furniture.

• Not placing the television on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television to a suitable support.

• Not standing the televisions on cloth or other materials placed between the television and supporting furniture.

• Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television or its controls.

Location of the identification label

Labels for Model No. and Power Supply rating (in accordance with applicable safety regulation) are located on the rear of the TV. For W954A/W950A series TV models, they can be found by removing the rear cover.

Do not install/use the TV set in locations, environments or situations such as those listed below, or the TV set may malfunction and cause a fire, electrical shock, damage and/or injuries.

Location:

• Outdoors (in direct sunlight), at the seashore, on a ship or other vessel, inside a vehicle, in medical institutions, unstable locations, near water, rain, moisture or smoke.

• If the TV is placed in the changing room of a public bath or hot spring, the TV may be damaged by airborne sulfur, etc.

• For best picture quality, do not expose the screen to direct illumination or sunlight.

• 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 colour. Should this occur, allow moisture to evaporate completely before powering the TV on.

• Never spray water or detergent directly on the TV set. It may drip to the bottom of the screen or exterior parts and enter the TV set, and may cause damage to the TV set.

Precautions

Viewing the TV

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

• Do not use, store, or leave the 3D Glasses or battery near a fire, or in places with a high temperature, e.g., in direct sunlight, or in sun-heated cars.

• 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.
