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-europe.com/myproduct) 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 the battery near 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.

• 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.

(Continued)

• The LCD screen contains a small
amount of liquid crystal. Some
fluorescent tubes used in this TV set also
contain mercury (except for LED
backlight LCD TV). Follow your local
ordinances and regulations for disposal.

• Do not subject the LCD screen to any
strong impact or shock. The screen glass
may crack or shatter and cause injury.

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.

Optional Equipment

• Keep optional components or any
equipment emitting electromagnetic
radiation away from the TV set.
Otherwise picture distortion and/or noisy
sound may occur.

• This equipment has been tested and
found to comply with the limits set out in
the EMC Directive using a connection
signal cable shorter than 3 meters.

(Caution about handling the
remote control)
Notes

• Observe the correct polarity when
inserting batteries.

• Do not use different types of batteries
together or mix old and new batteries.

• Dispose of batteries in an
environmentally friendly way. Certain
regions may regulate the disposal of
batteries. Please consult your local
authority.

• Handle the remote with care. Do not
drop or step on it, or spill liquid of any
kind onto it.

• Do not place the remote in a location
near a heat source, a place subject to
direct sunlight, or a damp room.

Mains lead

Handle the mains lead and socket as
follows in order to avoid any risk of fire,
electrical shock or damage and/or injuries:

– Use only mains leads supplied by

Sony, not other suppliers.

– Insert the plug fully into the mains

socket.

– Operate the TV set on a 220-240 V AC

supply only.

– When wiring cables, be sure to unplug

the mains lead for your safety and take
care not to catch your feet on the
cables.

– Disconnect the mains lead from the

mains socket before working on or
moving the TV set.

– Keep the mains lead away from heat

sources.

– Unplug the mains plug and clean it

regularly. If the plug is covered with
dust and it picks up moisture, its
insulation may deteriorate, which
could result in a fire.

Notes

• Do not use the supplied mains lead on
any other equipment.

• Do not pinch, bend, or twist the mains
lead excessively. The core conductors
may be exposed or broken.

• Do not modify the mains lead.

• Do not put anything heavy on the mains

lead.

• Do not pull on the mains lead itself when
disconnecting the mains lead.

• Do not connect too many appliances to
the same mains socket.

• Do not use a poor fitting mains socket.

Prohibited Usage

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

sunlight, near a radiator or a heating
vent. The TV may overheat in such
condition which can cause deformation
of the enclosure and/or TV malfunction.

Additional Information

Broken pieces:

screen glass may break by the impact
and cause serious injury.

not touch it until you have unplugged the
mains lead. Otherwise electric shock
may result.

When not in use

manual safe you’ll
need it

Television in the UK is going digital, bringing us all more.
Please see overleaf to find out when your area switches to digital.
Digital UK is the independent, non-profit organisation leading the process of digital TV switchover
in the UK. Digital UK provides impartial information on what people need to do to prepare for the
move to digital, and when they need to do it.

How the switchover affects your TV equipment:

Your new TV has a digital tuner built in, which means it is ready to receive the Freeview signal by
simply plugging it into your aerial socket (check if you can get digital TV through your aerial now,
or whether you'll have to wait until switchover, at www.digitaluk.co.uk).

When the TV switchover happens in your area, there are at least two occasions when you will need
to re-tune your TV in order to continue receiving your existing TV channels, and also to pick up new
ones. Digital UK, the body leading the digital TV switchover, will advise you when you need to re­tune during the switchover.
