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
interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
•A nameplate indicating operating voltage, power
consumption, etc. is located on the back of the unit.
•Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet,
unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it any further.
•Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be
used for several days or more.
•To disconnect the AC power cord, pull it out by
grasping the plug. Never pull the cord itself.
•When the unit is installed on the floor, be sure to use
the optional stand.
On installation
•Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal
heat build-up. Do not place the unit on surfaces
(rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains,
draperies) that may block the ventilation holes.
•Do not install the unit in a location near heat sources
such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to
direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration
or shock.
•When you install multiple equipment with the unit,
the following problems, such as malfunction of the
Remote Commander, noisy picture, noisy sound,
may occur depending on the position of the unit and
other equipment.
On the PDP (Plasma Display Panel)
•You may see some bright spots of red, blue or green
remain, or dark spots appear on the screen. These do
not indicate malfunction. Although the plasma
display panel is manufactured with extremely high
precision technology, it can generate a few dark or
bright pixels. Dark spots on the edge of the screen, or
striped color and brightness irregularities do not
indicate malfunction.
•Do not display the same still image on the screen for
a long time. Otherwise, an afterimage or ghost may
appear on a part of the panel. Use the screen saver
function to equalize use of the screen display.
Precautions
•Because of the way it is made, when this plasma
display panel is used in places with low air pressure,
such as at high altitudes, a buzzing or humming
noise may emanate from the unit.
•If you continue to display the same image on the
screen for a long period of time, part of that image
may burn into the screen and leave a ghosting image
behind. To avoid this, please use the screen saver
function provided to equalize use over the entire
screen. If ghosting occurs, use the screen saver
function, or use some kind of video or imaging
software to provide constant movement on the
screen. If light ghosting (image burn-in) occurs,it
may become less conspicuous, but once burn-in
occurs, it will never completely disappear.
•To protect the plasma display, this unit will not
accept commands from the Remote Commander or
from the function buttons on the unit for a certain
period of time after the unit has been switched ON/
STANDBY. After one of these operations, wait
about 8 seconds before entering a command.
On cleaning
To keep the unit looking brand-new, periodically
clean it with a mild detergent solution. Never use
strong solvents such as thinner or benzine, or abrasive
cleansers since these will damage the cabinet. As a
safety precaution, unplug the unit before cleaning it.
Notes on handling and cleaning the display
panel
The display panel’s special surface finish should be
treated with care when cleaning or handling the TV.
When cleaning, use a soft cleaning cloth to avoid
touching the panel directly.
On repacking
Do not throw away the carton and packing materials.
They make an ideal container in which to transport the
unit. When shipping the unit to another location,
repack it as illustrated on the carton.
If you have any questions about this unit, contact your
authorized Sony dealer.

•Regarding installation of hardware such as brackets,
screws, and bolts, we cannot specify what to use
because actual installation is up to the authorized
local dealers. For installation, consult with qualified
Sony personnel.
•While the unit is turned on, there are parts that may
be come hot, and this can cause burns. When the

Notes on Image Retention
If the 1 – 5 images (below) are displayed for an
extended period of time, image retention (afterimage)
in areas of the screen may result due to the
characteristics of the Plasma Display Panel. It is
possible to reduce image retention by following steps
A – D.
Situations which can result in burn-in and
picture retention
1Black bars at the top and bottom that appear
with wide video source (Letter box picture)
2Black bars to the left and right that appear with
4:3 video source (conventional TV broadcast)
3Video game sources
4DVD on-screen menu displays
5On-screen menus, channel numbers, etc., of
connected equipment such as DSS, Cable box,
video decks, etc.
Connections
Connecting the Speakers
You can enjoy viewing with a greater sense of
presence by connecting the speakers (SS-SP10A, not
supplied). Please be sure to connect the speakers
correctly. For more details on connecting the
speakers, see the operating manual that came with the
speakers.
Connecting the AC Power Cord
1 Plug the AC power cord into the AC IN socket.
Then, attach the AC plug holder (supplied) to the
AC power cord.

Precautions to avoid/reduce burn-in and
picture retention
AUse the automatic orbiting Screen Saver
function.
BAvoid displaying channel numbers, on-screen
menus etc., of connected equipment such as
DSS, Cable box, video decks, etc. To erase
channel numbers, on-screen menus, refer to the
user manual of connected equipment.
CReduce brightness of the picture and/or display
video source in Wide Zoom or Full Mode.
DIt is possible to reduce minor image retention
with “Pic. Inversion” (Picture Inversion)
function of “Screen Saver,” it cannot remove it
entirely once it has occurred.
Notes on “Pic. Inversion (Picture
Inversion)” of “Screen Saver”
If the displayed image appears as an image like a film
negative, “Pic.Inversion (Picture Inversion)” of
“Screen Saver” may be set to “Auto,” or “On.” To
return to a normal image, select “Off” or reset the
specified time in “Auto.”
Pic. Inversion (Picture Inversion) inverts the tint of
the picture (Example: white to black, black to white)
and corrects the image retention (afterimage) with
displayed image on. The image looks like a film
negative during picture inversion. This is not a
malfunction.
AC plug holder
2 Slide the AC plug holder over the cord until it
connects to the AC IN socket cover.

To remove the AC power cord
After squeezing the AC plug holder and freeing it,
grasp the plug and pull out the AC power cord.
Connection Example
Before you start
•First make sure that the power to each piece of
equipment is turned off.
•Use connecting cables suitable for the equipment to
be connected.
•The cable connectors should be fully inserted into
the jacks. A loose connection may cause hum and
other noise.
•To disconnect the cable, pull it out by grasping the
plug. Never pull the cable itself.
•Refer to the instruction manual of the equipment to
be connected.
•Insert the plug securely into the AC IN socket.
•Use one of the two AC plug holders (supplied) that
will securely hold the AC plug.
