1 Your New BRAVIA® LCD HDTV

Congratulations! Your new BRAVIA® TV opens the door to the “Stunning 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://productregistration.sony.com (from U.S.A.) http://www.SonyStyle.ca/registration (from Canada)

■Make sure you’ve removed all accessory contents from packaging.

■Install 2 AAA batteries (supplied separately) in your remote control.

■Determine whether you will mount your TV on a wall or place it on the Table-Top 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 receiving.

■Contact your cable, satellite or HD Service 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 Bluray Disc™.

•If you are not using the CABLE/ANTENNA connection to TV (for example, if using a cable or satellite box), you can cancel the

Auto Program by selecting Cancel.

3 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 or USB (Photo, Music, Video), you need to choose the

correct input using your remote control:

■ Press the INPUT button repeatedly until your selection is highlighted on-screen.

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).

The 16:9 aspect ratio (common to most HD signals) looks perfect on your BRAVIA.

The boxy 4:3 aspect ratio (common to most SD signals) must be adjusted to fill the screen.

■Press the WIDE button 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 the remote control’s MENU button, highlight and select Settings, then select the Picture and Sound settings to adjust the picture and sound quality of your content.

Refer to your Operating Instructions Manual for more information on adjusting or customizing your settings.

For details, refer to your BRAVIA Operating Instructions Manual.
