Handle the AC power cord and outlet as follows in order to avoid any risk of fire, electrical shock or damage and/or injuries:

– The shape of AC power plug, which is supplied with the

TV set, varies depending on the regions. Be sure to connect the appropriate supplied AC power cord with the plug that fits into the AC power outlet.

– Connect the TV set using a three-wire grounding type

AC power plug to a AC power outlet with a protective earthing connection.

– Use only Sony supplied AC power cords, not those of other brands.

– Insert the plug fully into the AC power outlet.

Precautions

Viewing the TV

• View the TV in moderate light, as viewing the TV in poor light or during long period of time, strains your eyes.

• When using headphones, adjust the volume so as to avoid excessive levels, as hearing damage may result.

LCD Screen

• Although the LCD screen is made with high-precision technology and 99.99% or more of the pixels are effective, black dots may appear or bright points of light (red, blue, or green) may appear constantly on the LCD screen. This is a structural property of the LCD screen and is not a malfunction.

• Do not push or scratch the front filter, or place objects on top of this TV set. The image may be uneven or the LCD screen may be damaged.

• If this TV set is used in a cold place, a smear may occur in the picture or the picture may become dark. This does not indicate a failure. These phenomena disappear as the temperature rises.

• Ghosting may occur when still pictures are displayed continuously. It may disappear after a few moments.

• The screen and cabinet get warm when this TV set is in use. This is not a malfunction.

• The LCD screen contains a small amount of liquid crystal and mercury. The fluorescent tubes used in this TV set also contain mercury. Follow your local ordinances and regulations for disposal.

Handling and cleaning the screen surface/cabinet of the TV set

Be sure to unplug the AC power cord connected to the TV set from AC power outlet before cleaning.

To avoid material degradation or screen coating degradation, observe the following precautions.

• To remove dust from the screen surface/cabinet, wipe gently with a soft cloth. If dust is persistent, wipe with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a diluted mild detergent solution.

• Never use any type of abrasive pad, alkaline/acid cleaner, scouring powder, or volatile solvent, such as alcohol, benzene, thinner or insecticide. Using such materials or maintaining prolonged contact with rubber or vinyl materials may result in damage to the screen surface and cabinet material.

• When adjusting the angle of the TV set, move it slowly so as to prevent the TV set from moving or slipping off from its table stand.

Optional Equipment

Keep optional components or any equipment emitting electromagnetic radiation away from the TV set. Otherwise picture distortion and/or noisy sound may occur.

Using HDMI control

The HDMI control function allows equipment to control each other using HDMI CEC (Consumer

Electronics Control) specified by HDMI.

You can connect Sony HDMI control compatible equipment such as TVs, hard disk DVD recorders and audio systems (with HDMI cables) to let them work integratedly.

Be sure to correctly connect and set the compatible equipment to use the HDMI control function.

To connect the HDMI control compatible equipment

Connect the compatible equipment and the TV with an

HDMI cable. When connecting an audio system, in addition to the HDMI cable, be sure to also connect to the audio output jacks to listen to the sound from

the TV on audio system. For details, see page 16.

To make the HDMI control settings

HDMI control must be set on both the TV side and the

connected equipment side. See “HDMI Set-up” on page 38 for the TV side settings. See the operating

instructions of the connected equipment for setting details.

HDMI control functions

• Turns the connected equipment automatically off when you turn the TV off.

• Turns the TV on and automatically switches the input to the connected equipment when the equipment starts to play.

• If you turn on a connected audio system while the

TV is on, the sound output switches from the TV speaker to the audio system.

• Adjusts the volume and mutes the sound of a connected audio system.
