Safety Information

For your safety

All TVs operate on extremely high voltages. To prevent fire or electric shock, please follow the safety procedures indicated below.

For General Safety

• Do not expose the TV set to rain or moisture.

• Do not remove the rear cover.

• For your protection, refer all servicing to qualified personnel only.

For Safe Installation

• Do not install the TV in hot, humid or excessively dusty places.

• Do not block or cover the ventilation openings. For ventilation, leave a space of at least 10 cm all around the set.

• Do not install the TV where it may be exposed to mechanical vibrations.

• Place the TV set only on a stable stand designed for the weight and dimensions of the TV.

For Safe Operation

• Do not operate the TV set on anything other than a 220-240V AC, 50Hz supply.

• Do not operate the TV if any liquid or solid objects fall in through the ventilation slots. Have it checked immediately.

• For environmental and safety reasons, it is recommended that the TV set is not left in standby mode when not in use. Switch off at the mains.

• Do not disconnect the TV by pulling on the power cable. Disconnect by removing the mains plug.

• In case of a thunderstorm, disconnect the TV set from the main supply and the aerial. Otherwise the set may be damaged by a stroke of lightning.

For Maintenance

• Clean the TV screen with a soft dampened cloth. Do not use any abrasive cleaners.

• Dust and nicotine deposits may cause heat accumulation inside the TV set. In the long term this could be a safety risk and may shorten the lifetime of your TV set. Therefore have your set serviced about every five years.

Safety Information

All televisions operate on extremely high voltages. To prevent fire or electric shock, please follow the safety guidelines indicated in the blue sheet supplied. Always use TV stands that are strong and stable enough to support the weight and size of this TV. Due to the unique floating design of this TV, Sony highly recommend you use their designated stand, SU-29FQ1. If this recommended option is not taken, it is vitally important to ensure that any cabinet or table has a large enough surface area to accommodate all three legs of the TV without any overlap.

NexTView is an electronic programme guide with up to 1 week* of programme information on those channels included in the selected provider. *If the data exceeds the memory of NexTView, you will get information on less than 7 days.

p.m.). When you’ve found a programme you can go directly to this programme, use the timer to remind you of it or preset your VCR with Smartlink.

The NexTView provider is responsible for the contents of the guide. The TV set is responsible for the presentation, that is the menu structure and the navigation, if there is none from the provider. If there is a navigation from the provider the basic operation with the joystick is the same as described in the Sony navigation.

At first you need to select a channel providing a NexTView service. In this case the indication “NexTView” is displayed as soon as all data is available. When you later change the channel you can still select this NexTView service.

Operation using the Sony navigation

1. Press to switch NexTView on and off.

2. Use the joystick buttons as follows

• moving up or downwards within a column: Use v or V.

• going to the left columns time and date: Use b.

• Confirming a selection: Press OK.

(a) while in the columns date, time or icon (themes), the programme list changes according to the selection. (b) while in the programme list, confirming a running broadcast brings you directly to the TV programme or confirming

Informacje dotyczące bezpieczeństwa

Bezpieczeństwo

W telewizorach są wykorzystywane bardzo wysokie napięcia. Aby uniknąć ryzyka pożaru lub porażenia prądem, należy stosować się do podanych niżej zasad bezpieczeństwa.

Ogólne bezpieczeństwo

• Nie wystawiać telewizora na deszcz ani wilgoć.

• Nie zdejmować tylnej obudowy.

• Dla własnego bezpieczeństwa, wszystkie naprawy zlecać wykwalifikowanym osobom.

Bezpieczeństwo instalacji

• Nie instalować telewizora z miejscach gorących, wilgotnych lub nadmiernie zapylonych.

• Nie blokować ani nie zakrywać otworów wentylacyjnych. Dla zapewnienia wentylacji pozostawić ze wszystkich stron telewizorach po 10 cm wolnego miejsca.

• Nie instalować telewizora w miejscach narażonych na wibracje mechaniczne.

• Stawiać telewizor tylko na stabilnej podstawie, która nadaje się do podtrzymywania

telewizora o takich wymiarach i wadze.

Bezpieczeństwo obsługi

• Do zasilania telewizora używać wyłącznie napięcia przemiennego 220-240 V, 50 Hz.

• Jeśli przez otwory wentylacyjne wpadnie jakiś przedmiot lub wleje się płyn, nie

używać telewizora. Natychmiast zlecić jego kontrolę.

• Ze względu na ochronę środowiska i bezpieczeństwo zaleca się, by nie pozostawiać nieużywanego telewizora w trybie czuwania, ale go wyłączać wyłącznikiem sieciowym.

• Przy wyłączaniu telewizora z gniazdka sieciowego nie ciągnąć za przewód. Zawsze chwytać za wtyczkę.

• W przypadku burzy należy wyłączyć telewizor z sieci i odłączyć antenę. W przeciwnym razie telewizor może zostać uszkodzony po uderzeniu pioruna.

Konserwacja

• Czyścić ekran miękką, wilgotną ciereczką. Nie używać żadnych środków do szorowania.

• Osady z kurzu i nikotyny mogą powodować nagrzewanie się wnętrza telewizora. Na dłuższą metę może to stanowić czynnik ryzyka i skrócić okres eksploatacji telewizora. Z tego względu co pięć lat należy zlecać kontrolę serwisową telewizora.
