Precautions

Wall

Viewing the TV comfortably

• To view the TV comfortably, the recommended viewing position is from four to seven times the screen’s vertical length away from the TV.

• View the TV in moderate light, as viewing the TV in poor light taxes your eyes. Watching the screen continuously for long periods of time can also tax your eyes.

Installing the unit

Use the specified wall-mount bracket or stand.

• Do not install the unit in places subject to extreme temperature, for example in direct sunlight, or near a radiator, or heating vent. If the unit is exposed to extreme temperature, the unit may heat up and this may cause deformation of the casing or cause the unit to malfunction.

• To obtain a clear picture, do not expose the screen to direct illumination or direct sunlight. If possible, use spot lighting directed down from the ceiling.

• The unit is not disconnected from the mains when the unit is switched off. To disconnect the unit completely, pull the plug from the mains.

Volume adjustment

• Adjust the volume so as not to trouble your neighbours. Sound carries very easily at night time. Therefore, closing the windows or using headphones is suggested.

• When using headphones, adjust the volume so as to avoid excessive levels, as hearing damage may result.

Handling the remote control

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

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

Handling and cleaning the screen surface of the unit

To avoid screen degradation, follow the advice given below. Do not push on the screen or scratch it with hard objects, or throw anything at it. The screen may be damaged.

• Be sure to unplug the mains lead before cleaning the unit.

• Do not touch the display panel after operating the unit continuously for a long period as the display panel becomes hot.

• We recommend that the screen surface be touched as little as possible.

• Clean the screen with a soft cloth.

• Never use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent, such as alcohol or benzine. Using such materials may result in damage to the screen surface.

Cleaning the cabinet

• Be sure to unplug the mains lead before cleaning the cabinet.

• Clean the cabinet with a soft cloth.

• Note that ma terial de terioration or screen coating degradation may occur if the unit is exposed to a volatile solvent, such as alcohol, thinner, benzine or insecticide, or if prolonged contact is maintained with rubber or vinyl materials.

• The ventilation holes can accumulate dust over a period of time. To ensure proper ventilation, we recommend removing the dust periodically (once a month) using a vacuum cleaner.

(continued)

Precautions

On the PDP (Plasma Display Panel) (KE-P42M1 only)

On image

• Please note that the PDP screen is made with high-precision technology. However, black points or bright points of light (red, blue, or green) may appear constantly on the PDP screen, and irregular coloured stripes or brightness may appear on the PDP screen. This is not a malfunction.

• With extensive use of this TV set in 4:3 mode, the 4:3 screen area might become darker within a 16:9 panel. To avoid this problem, the “Smart” picture mode should be used (see page 37).

On image retention

• If the following images are displayed for an extended period time, image retention (afterimage) in areas of the screen may result due to the characteristics of the Plasma Display Panel. – Black bars at the top and bottom that appear with a wide video source (Letterbox picture). – Black bars to the left and right that appear with a 4:3 video source (conventional TV broadcasts). – Video game sources – DVD on-screen menu displays – On-screen menus, channel numbers, etc., of connected equipment such as Set top box, Cable modem, VCR, etc. The risk of this is higher if the set is in “Live” mode or has a high contrast setting. This image cannot be removed once burnt onto the screen. To avoid the risk of image retention do not leave the TV set operating on such a picture, or programme for a long time, use the “Screen Saver” function (page 39) or lower the contrast setting. Repeated extended daily usage of the same image, or programme can also result in this occurrence. IMAGE RETENTION IS NOT COVERED BY THE SONY WARRANTY.

• To reduce image retention, this TV set has the “Screen Saver” function. The default setting of the “Orbit” function in “Screen Saver” is “On” (page 39).

• The “Screen Saver” function prevents and reduces image retention. For more details, see page 39.

On altitude

When used at an altitude of greater than 1900m or 6248 feet (air pressure less than 800hPa), this Plasma Display Panel may generate a low buzzing sound as a result of the difference between the interior and exterior air pressure of the panels. This is not considered a defect and is not covered under by the Sony Warranty. This buzzing sound is an inherent characteristic of any Plasma Display Panel.
