WARNING

To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not
expose the television to rain or

moisture.

This symbol is intended to alert the user to the
presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage"
within the product's enclosure'that may be of
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of
electric shock to persons.

This symbol is intended to alert the user to the
presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the appliance.

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.

Precautions

Safety

• Operate the TV only on 120 V AC {except KV-29RS25C/
29V35CI34V35C).

• Operate the TV only on 220 V AC (KV-29RS25CI29V35CI
34V35C only).

• 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 (except KV^29RS25CI29V35CI34V35C).

• Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet, unplug
the TV and have it checked by qualified personnel before
operating it any further.

• Unplug the 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."

Installing

• To prevent internal heat build-up, do not block the
ventilation openings.

• Do not install the TV in a hot or humid place, or in a place
subject to excessive dust or mechanical vibration.

CAUTION

When using TV games, computers, and similar products with
your 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.

Notes"

If more than one code number is listed, try entering them one
by one, until you come to the correct code for your equipment.
In some rare cases, you may not be able to operate your non­Sony video equipment with the supplied remote commander.
This is because your equipment may use a code that is not

included with this remote commander. In this case, please use
the equipment's own remote control unit.
The code numbers for Sony equipment are assigned at the
factory as follows:
VHS VCR

301 (preset code for the supplied

remote commander)
8 mm VCR
Beta, ED Beta VCRs

302
303

Whenever you remove the batteries — to replace them, for

example — if too much time is taken, the code number may
revert to the factory setting and must be reset.

Custom Interchangeable Panels

KV-35V75

An optional custom panel can compliment your
decor and give your entertainment center a
dramatic focal point. The panels (see color
samples below) can be installed in minutes.
Installation is easy — simply follow the
instructions below.

Installation Instructions

1 Open your TV Operating Instructions to Step 3 of

"Installing the glass door and adjusting the shelf"

(page 12). Use this as your guide to remove the
glass door.

2 Remove the two screws from the holes located at

the top right and top left of the panel (see arrows

below).

3 Place one hand on each side of the panel and gently

remove the original panel by pulling it towards

you.

4 Unscrew the nut from the door magnet, located on

the back side, and install the magnet into the new
panel.

5 Align the four catchers inside the new panel with

the bushings on the stand and press into place.

6 Replace the top two screws to secure the panel and

reinstall the glass door.

Note

The glass door is made of tempered glass. Although it is more
shock-resistant than ordinary glass, tempered glass may shatter
if it is dropped or receives a sudden shock.
