SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNING!!
COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED BY SHADING AND MARK ! ON
THE SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS, EXPLODED VIEWS AND IN THE
PARTS LIST ARE CRITICAL TO SAFE OPERATION. REPLACE
THESE COMPONENTS WITH SONY PARTS WHOSE PART
NUMBERS APPEAR AS SHOWN IN THIS MANUAL OR IN
SUPPLEMENTS PUBLISHED BY SONY.
The units in this manual contain a self-diagnostic function. If an error occurs, the STANDBY/TIMER lamp will automatically
begin to flash.
The number of times the lamp flashes translates to a probable source of the problem. A definition of the STANDBY/TIMER
lamp flash indicators is listed in the instruction manual for the user’s knowledge and reference. If an error symptom cannot
be reproduced, the remote commander can be used to review the failure occurrence data stored in memory to reveal past
problems and how often these problems occur.
1.DIAGNOSTIC TEST INDICATORS
When an errors occurs, the STANDBY/TIMER lamp will flash a set number of times to indicate the possible cause of the
problem. If there is more than one error, the lamp will identify the first of the problem areas.
Result for all of the following diagnostic items are displayed on screen. No error has occured if the screen displays a “0”.

4. SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SCREEN DISPLAY
For errors with symptoms such as “power sometimes shuts off” or “screen sometimes goes out” that cannot be confirmed, it
is possible to bring up past occurances of failure for confirmation on the screen:
[To Bring Up Screen Test]
In standby mode, press buttons on the remote commander sequentially in rapid succession as shown below:

5. HANDLING OF SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SCREEN DISPLAY
Since the diagnostic results displayed on the screen are not automatically cleared, always check the self-diagnostic screen
during repairs. When you have completed the repairs, clear the result display to “0”.
Unless the result display is cleared to “0”, the self-diagnostic function will not be able to detect subsequent faults after
completion of the repairs.
[Clearing the result display]
To clear the result display to “0”, press buttons on the remote commander sequentially as shown below when the diagnostic
screen is being displayed.

3 When one side of the rubber cap is separated from the anode button, the anode-cap
can be removed by turning up the rubber cap and pulling it up in the direction of the
arrow c.
• HOW TO HANDLE AN ANODE-CAP
1 Do not damage the surface of anode-caps with sharp shaped objects.
2 Do not press the rubber too hard so as not to damage the inside of anode-cap.
A metal fitting called the shatter-hook terminal is built into the rubber.
3 Do not turn the foot of rubber over too hard.
The shatter-hook terminal will stick out or damage the rubber.

SECTION 3
ADVANCE OPERATION
3-1. "RESET" FUNCTION
1. Purpose
If a customer faces some setting problem that cannot be solved, using the "RESET" function some items will be
reset to its original setting (shipment condition)
2. How to Operate
The way to access to the "RESET" Function:-
a) By pressing "MENU" button or "SELECT" button (for non-menu models) on the Front Key Input and
hold it down for 5 seconds.
3. Subsequent of Operation
Sequential to the resetting operation (either methods being used in No. 2), TV set would shut down once and
automatically turn on again. The power-off duration is expected to be about 500msec. An OSD message,
"RESET" tentatively will be displayed for 10 sec after IK status gets stable.
As a result, some items will be reset to an initial condition (shipment condition) wheareas some other remains at
the last selection by user.

• In order to reduce the influence of geomagnetism on the set's
picture tube, face it east or west.
• Switch on the set's power and degauss with the degausser.
4-1. BEAM LANDING
1. Input a white signal with the pattern generator.
Contrast
Brightness
2. Position neck assy as shown in Fig4-2.
3. Set the pattern generator raster signal to a green raster.
4. Move the deflection yoke to the rear and adjust with the
purity control so that the green is at the center and the blue
and the red take up equally sized areas on each side.
(See Figures 4-1 through 4-4.)
5. Move the deflection yoke forward and adjust so that the
entire screen is green. (See Figure 4-2.)
6. Switch the raster signal to blue, then to red and verify the
condition.
7. When the position of the deflection yoke has been decided,
fasten the deflection yoke with the screws and DY spacers.
8. If the beam does not land correctly in all the corners, use a
magnet to adjust it.
(See Figure 4-5.)

Preparation :
• Before starting this adjustment, adjust the focus, horizontal size
and vertical size.
• Receive dot/hatch signal.
• Pic mode: Personal (Pic 90%, Brightness 50%, Col 50 %,
Hue 50%, Shp 50%).

1. (Moving horizontally), adjust the H.STAT control so that the
red, green and blue dots are on top of each other at the center of
the screen.
2. (Moving vertically), adjust the V.STAT magnet so that the red,
green and blue dots are on top of each other at the center of the
screen.
3. If the H.STAT variable resistor cannot bring the red, green and
blue dots together at the center of the screen, adjust the
horizontal convergence with the H.STAT variable resistor and
the V.STAT magnet in the manner given below.
(In this case, the H.STAT variable resistor and the V.STAT
magnet influence each other, so be sure to perform adjustments
while tracking.)
