Before setting up your TV

Some TV models are packaged with a detached Table-Top

Stand so you can mount your TV to a wall right away. See

page 17 (Installing the TV to the Wall) if you want to mount

the TV to a wall. If you are not mounting the TV to a wall,

you will need to attach the Table-Top Stand. You will need a

Phillips screwdriver (not supplied) and the supplied screws

to complete the task. Look for the supplied Table-Top Stand

instruction leaflet.

Be sure to consider the following while setting up your TV:

• Disconnect all cables when carrying the TV.

• Carry the TV with the adequate number of people; larger

size TVs require two or more people.

• Correct hand placement while carrying the TV is very

important for safety and to avoid damage.

• Ensure your TV has adequate ventilation, see page 18.

• For best picture quality, do not expose the screen to direct

illumination or sunlight.

• Avoid installing the TV in a room with reflective wall and

floor materials.

• Avoid moving the TV from a cold area to a warm area.

Sudden room temperature changes may cause moisture

condensation. This may cause the TV to show poor

picture and/or poor color. Should this occur, allow

moisture to evaporate completely before powering the TV

on.

Securing the TV

Sony strongly recommends taking

measures to prevent the TV from

toppling over.

Unsecured TVs may topple and result

in property damage, serious bodily

injury or even death.

Preventing the TV from Toppling

• Secure the TV to a wall and/or stand.

• Do not allow children to play or climb on furniture and TV

sets.

• Avoid placing or hanging items on the TV.

• Never install the TV on:

 slippery, unstable and/or uneven surfaces.

 furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a

chest of drawers.

• Install the TV where it cannot be pulled, pushed, or

knocked over.

• Route all AC power cords and connecting cables so that

they are not accessible to curious children.

Recommended Measures to Secure the

Consider the following measures when securing your TV to

a Stand (not supplied).

1 Secure the Stand for the TV.

Make sure the Stand can adequately support the weight

of the TV. Use two angle braces (not supplied) to secure

the stand. For each angle brace use the appropriate

hardware to:

• Attach one side of the angle brace to the wall stud.

• Attach the other side to the Stand.

Pursuant to FCC regulations, you are cautioned that any

changes or modifications not expressly approved in this

manual could void your authority to operate this

equipment.

Stand

2 Secure the TV to the Stand.

Use the optional hardware listed as follows (not

supplied):

• M6 machine screw (screwed into the TV’s rear cover)

• A screw or similar (attach it to the Stand)

• Rope or chain (strong enough to support the weight of

the TV). Make sure that there is no excess slack in the

rope or chain.

The length of the M6 machine screw differs depending

on the rope or chain diameter. Please see below

illustration.

3 Anchor the TV to the wall by using bolts, wall anchor and

chain (or rope).

Please see below illustration for M6 eye bolt length.

Note

• Your TV is shipped with screws attached to the rear of the

TV depending on the TV model. (They are fastened in the

screw holes for wall mounting.) Be sure to remove the

upper two screws prior to anchoring the TV to a wall.

• Securing the TV to the stand without securing the TV and

the stand to the wall provides minimum protection

against the TV toppling over. For further protection, be

sure to follow the three measures recommended.

How to care for your BRAVIA TV

Safety is very important. Please read and follow the safety

documentation (Safety Booklet) separately provided.

Unplug the TV and other

connected equipment from

the wall outlet before you

begin cleaning your TV.

• Wipe the LCD screen gently

with a soft cloth.

• Stubborn stains may be

removed with a cloth

slightly moistened with a

solution of mild soap and

warm water.

• If using a chemically

pretreated cloth, please follow the instruction provided

on the package.

• Never spray water or detergent directly on the TV set. It

may drip to the bottom of the screen or exterior parts and

enter the TV set, and may cause damage to the TV set.

• Never use strong solvents such as a thinner, alcohol or

benzine for cleaning.

• Do not plug in the TV into the wall outlet until the

moisture from cleaning has evaporated.

The TV should also be placed on a stable surface to prevent

it from toppling over

(see page 3). If you have young

children or pets at home, check regularly to ensure the TV is

securely fastened.
