Important Safeguards
For your protection, please read these instructions completely, and keep this
manual for future reference.
Carefully observe and comply with all warnings, cautions and instructions
placed on the set or described in the operating instructions or service
manual.
WARNING
To guard against injury, the following basic safety precautions should be
observed in the installation, use and servicing of the set.
Use
Power Sources
This set should be operated only from the type of
power source indicated on the serial/model
plate. If you are not sure of the type of electrical
power supplied to your home, consult your
dealer or local power company. For those sets
designed to operate from battery power, refer to
the operating instructions.
Grounding or Polarization
This set is equipped with a polarized AC power cord plug (a plug having
one blade wider than the other), or with a three-wire grounding type plug
(a plug having a third pin for grounding). Follow the instructions below:
For the set with a polarized AC
power cord plug
This plug will fit into the power outlet only one
way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to
insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing
the plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact your
electrician to have a suitable outlet installed. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the polarized plug by forcing it in.
For the set with a three-wire grounding
type AC plug
This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power
outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to
insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician
to have a suitable outlet installed. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
grounding plug.
Overloading
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or
convenience receptacles beyond their capacity, since this
can result in fire or electric shock.
Attachments
Do not use attachments not recommended by the
manufacturer, as they may cause hazards.
Installation
Water and Moisture
Do not use power-line operated sets near water — for
example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or
laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool,
etc.
Corrosion
Use of this set near the seashore may subject the set to excessive salt,
corrosion and internal damage and result in deterioration of the set’s
performance. If the set will be subjected to these conditions, steps should be
taken to reduce the humidity and temperature of the area where the set is
located.
Accessories
Do not place the set on an unstable cart, stand, table or
shelf. The set may fall, causing serious injury to a child
or an adult and serious damage to the set. Use only a
cart or stand recommended by Sony for the specific
model of TV. No part of the TV set should overhang
any edge of the TV cart or stand; any overhanging edge is
a safety hazard. An appliance and cart combination
should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force,
and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart
combination to overturn.
Ventilation
The slots and openings in the cabinet and in the back or bottom are
provided for necessary ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the set,
and to protect it from overheating, these slots and openings must never be
blocked or covered.
s Never cover the slots and openings with a cloth or
other materials.
s Never block the slots and openings by placing the set
on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface.
Always turn the set off when it is not being used. When
the set is left unattended and unused for long periods of
time, unplug it from the wall outlet as a precaution
against the possibility of an internal malfunction that
could create a fire hazard.
If a snapping or popping sound from a TV set is
continuous or frequent while the TV is operating, unplug
the TV and consult your dealer or service technician. It is
normal for some TV sets to make occasional snapping or
popping sounds, particularly when being turned on or
off.
Object and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind into the set through the
cabinet slots as they may touch dangerous voltage
points or short out parts that could result in a fire or
electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the set.
Cleaning
s Be sure to unplug the TV unit before cleaning.
s Minimize contact with the LCD screen surface
since the special coating applied may be
affected. Use a dry soft cloth when removing
dust from the screen.
s Do not use alcohol, benzine, thinner, etc., as it may damage the coating
or cause LCD screen deterioration.
s Always use commercially available chemical fiber cleaning cloths in
accordance with their supplied instructions.
s Do not allow the LCD screen to come in contact with volatile
compounds, such as insecticide. Also, never let the LCD screen come in
contact with rubber or plastic products for an extended period of time.
This type of contact may damage the coating, or cause the LCD screen
to deteriorate.

Antennas
Outdoor Antenna Grounding
If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the precautions below. An outdoor
antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power
lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can come in contact
with such power lines or circuits.
WHEN INSTALLING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA SYSTEM, EXTREME
CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO KEEP FROM CONTACTING SUCH
POWER LINES OR CIRCUITS AS CONTACT WITH THEM IS ALMOST
INVARIABLY FATAL.
Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection
against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the
National Electrical Code (NEC) in USA and Section 54 of the Canadian
Electrical Code in Canada provides information with respect to proper
grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in
wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of
antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.
Servicing
Do not attempt to service the set yourself since opening the
cabinet may expose you to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Replacement Parts
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician certifies
in writing that he has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer
that have the same characteristics as the original parts.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other
hazards.
Safety Check
Upon completion of any service or repairs to the set,
ask the service technician to perform routine safety
checks (as specified by the manufacturer) to
determine that the set is in safe operating condition,
