Welcome to the World of BRAVIA™

Thank you for purchasing this Sony

high-definition television. The quality of the image you see on your BRAVIA TV is only as good as the quality of the signal it receives. To experience the stunning detail of your new BRAVIA TV, you need access to HD programming. Your BRAVIA TV can receive and display HD programming from:

• Over-the-air broadcasting via HD-quality antenna

• HD cable subscription

• HD satellite subscription

• Blu-ray Disc™ player or other external equipment

Contact your cable or satellite provider for information on upgrading to HD programming.

To learn more about HDTV, visit: http://www.sony.com/HDTV

The Four Steps to Stunning HD Experience: Set, Sound, Source, and Setup

Along with your BRAVIA TV set, a complete HD system requires an HD sound system, a source of HD

programming and proper setup connections. This manual explains basic setup connections (see page 16).

The Quick Setup Guide, enclosed separately, illustrates how to connect other optional equipment.

Picture Quality and Aspect Ratio

You can enjoy crisp, clear images, smooth movement and high-impact visuals from 1080i HD signals. When you compare a high-definition signal to a standard analog signal, you will notice a big difference. The 1080i

HD signals provide more than twice the vertical resolution of the standard TV signal.

High-definition and standard-definition signals are transmitted with different aspect ratios (the width-to-height ratio of the image). HDTV uses a wider screen than conventional standard-definition TV.

16:9 (high-definition) source

Most HDTV signals use a wide screen aspect ratio of

16:9. The 16:9 fills your BRAVIA screen and maintains a crisp, clear, vivid picture.

4:3 (standard-definition) source

Most standard-definition signals use a boxy 4:3 aspect ratio. When a 4:3 image is displayed on an HDTV, you will see black bars on the sides. The picture quality may not be as sharp as with HD sources.

~

• You can use the Wide Mode function of the TV to adjust the 4:3 image to fit the entire screen (see pages 23 and 29).

• This TV supports signals up to 1080i.

Preparation for Wall-Mounting

This TV can be installed on a wall by using a Wall-

Mount Bracket (sold separately). Before mounting the TV on a wall, the Table-Top Stand must be removed from the TV.

~

• Do not remove the Table-Top Stand for any reason other than to wall-mount the TV.

Follow the simple steps below to remove the Table-

Top Stand:

1

Disconnect all the cables from the TV.

2

Gently lay the TV, face down, onto a level and stable surface covered with a thick and soft cloth. Make sure the Table-Top Stand is hanging over the edge.

3

Remove the screws as shown in the illustration for your model and pull the Table-Top Stand out.

4

Do not remove any other screws from the TV.

~

• Be sure to store the removed screws and Table-Top

Stand in a safe place until you are ready to reattach the

Table-Top Stand. Keep the screws away from small children.

• For bracket installation, refer to the Wall-Mount insert

(supplied in the accesories) and the instruction guide provided by the Wall-Mount Bracket model for your

TV. Sufficient expertise is required in installing this TV, especially to determine the strength of the wall for withstanding the TV’s weight.

• For product protection and safety reasons, Sony strongly recommends that you use the Wall-Mount

Bracket model designed for your TV and the wallmounting of your TV should be performed by a

Sony dealer or licensed contractor.

Use the following Sony TV’s only with the following WALL-MOUNT BRACKET.

General

Wide Mode changes automatically.

Suddenly the picture gets smaller.

“Black box” on screen.

Black bands appear at the top and bottom of the screen.

Certain programs on DVD or other digital sources display a loss of detail, especially during fast-motion or dark scenes.

❑ The current Wide Mode setting is automatically replaced with the 4:3

Default setting when you change the channel or video input, if 4:3 Default in the Screen menu is set to other than Off. If you want to lock in Wide

Mode selected with on the remote control, set 4:3 Default to Off in

the Screen menu (page 29).

❑ Turn off the Auto Wide option in the Screen menu (page 29).

❑ The picture gets smaller during the commercials, this is due to the method the provider broadcasts their contents. When HD content channels switch to

SD definition content (commercials), the picture may be small with a black border.

❑ You have selected a text option and no text is available. (See page 35.) To

turn off this feature, set the Closed Captions option to Off. If you were trying to select closed captioning, select CC1 instead of Text1-4.

❑ Some wide screen programs are filmed in aspect ratios that are greater than

16:9 (this is especially common with theatrical releases). Your TV will show these programs with black bands at the top and bottom of the screen. For more details, check the documentation that came with your DVD (or contact your program provider).

❑ Programs in 4:3 aspect ratio will have bands on left and right sides of the

screen, to select full size see page 29.

❑ The compression used by certain digital broadcasts and DVDs may cause your TV’s screen to display less detail than usual, or cause artifacts (small blocks or dots, pixelations) to appear on your screen. This is due to your

TV’s large screen and ability to show very fine detail, and is normal for certain digitally recorded programs.
