Note on convergence adjustment
Before you use your projection TV, make sure to adjust
convergence. For the procedure, see page 17.
NOTIFICATION
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device pursuant to Part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
inteference with radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more
of the following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antennas
– Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician
for help.
CAUTION
To prevent electric shock, do not use this polarized AC plug
with an extension cord, receptacle or other outlet unless the
blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.
CAUTION
When using TV games, computers, and similar products with
your projection TV, keep the brightness and contrast
functions at low settings. If a fixed (non-moving) pattern is
left on the screen for long periods of time at a high brightness
or contrast setting, the image can be permanently imprinted
onto the screen. These types of imprints are not covered by
your warranty because they are the result of misuse.

Precautions
Thank you for purchasing the Sony Color Rear Video
Projection TV. Here are some of the features you will
enjoy with your projection TV:
• On-screen menus that let you set the picture quality,
sound, and other settings.
• Two tuner Picture-in-Picture (PIP) that allows you
to watch another TV channel, video or cable image
as a window or left picture.
• SRS (SOUND RETRIEVAL SYSTEM) that allows
you to receive realistic sound that recaptures audio
“clues” originally present but masked in the
recording process so that the action seems to
happen all around you.
• SAVA SPEAKER option of the AUDIO menu that
lets you take advantage of the Sony SAVA series
speaker system’s surround sound and super woofer
mode when you connect it to the projection TV.
• S-LinkTM that allows you to automatically change
the TV’s input mode, turn on the VCR, and play a
tape by just pressing the VCR’s play button. This
feature is originally designed by Sony.
About this manual
The instructions in this manual are for models KP48V45, KP-53V45, and KP-61V45. Before you start
reading this manual, please check your model number,
located at the rear of the projection TV.
Model KP-53V45 is used for illustration purposes in
this manual. Any differences in operation are clearly
indicated in the text, for example “KP-48V45 only.”
The differences in specifications are indicated in the
text.
Instructions in this manual are based on use of the
remote control. You can also use the controls on the
projection TV if they have the same name as those on
the remote control.

This projection TV operates on extremely high voltage.
To prevent fire or electric shock, please follow the
precautions below.
Safety
• Operate the projection TV only on 120 V AC.
• One blade of the plug is wider than the other for safety
purposes and will fit into the power outlet only one
way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the
outlet, contact your dealer.
• Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet,
unplug the projection TV and have it checked by
qualified personnel before operating it further.
• Unplug the projection TV from the wall outlet if you
are not going to use it for several days or more. To
disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug. Never
pull the cord itself.
For details concerning safety precautions, see the supplied
leaflet “IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS.”
Note on cleaning
Clean the cabinet of the projection TV with a dry soft
cloth. To remove dust from the screen, wipe it gently
with a soft cloth using vertical strokes only. Stubborn
stains may be removed with a cloth slightly dampened
with solution of mild soap and warm water. Never use
strong solvents such as thinner or benzine for cleaning.
If the picture becomes dark after using the projection TV
for a long period of time, it may be necessary to clean the
inside of the projection TV. Consult qualified service
personnel.
Installing
• To prevent internal heat build-up, do not block the
ventilation openings.
• Do not install the projection TV in a hot or humid
place, or in a place subject to excessive dust or
mechanical vibration.
• Avoid operating the projection TV at temperatures
below 5°C (41°F).
• If the projection TV is transported directly from a cold
to a warm location, or if the room temperature has
changed suddenly, the picture may be blurred or show
poor color. This is because moisture has condensed on
the mirror or lenses inside. If this happens, let the
moisture evaporate before using the projection TV.
• To obtain the best picture, do not expose the screen to
direct illumination or direct sunlight. It is
recommended to use spot lighting directed down from
the ceiling or to cover the windows that face the screen
with opaque drapery. It is desirable to install the
projection TV in a room where the floor and walls are
not of reflecting material. If necessary, cover them
with dark carpeting or wall paper.
Getting Started

Step 2: Hookup
Connecting an antenna/cable TV

Although you can use either an indoor or outdoor
antenna with your projection TV, we recommend that
you connect an outdoor antenna or a cable TV system
to get better picture quality.

terminal. If you cannot connect your antenna cable
directly to the terminal, follow one of the instructions
below depending on your cable type.

inside the battery compartment.
Notes
• Under normal conditions, batteries will last up to six months.
If the remote control does not operate properly or the
indicators of the buttons on the remote control do not light up,
the batteries may be worn out. When replacing batteries,
replace both of them with new ones.
• Do not mix old batteries with new ones or mix different types
of batteries together.
• If the electrolyte inside the battery should leak, wipe the
contaminated area of the battery compartment with a cloth and
replace the old batteries with new ones. To prevent the
electrolyte from leaking, remove the batteries when you don‘t
plan to use the remote control for a long period of time.
• Do not handle the remote control roughly. Do not drop it, step
on it, or let it get wet.
• Do not place the remote control in direct sunlight, near a
