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. 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 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 that there are no objects in front of the TV.

• Do not expose the Presence Sensor to direct sunlight or other strong light, as malfunction may occur.

1: Attaching the Table-Top

Stand

Refer to the supplied Table-Top Stand instruction leaflet for proper attachment.

1

Place the TV unit on the Table-Top

Stand.

~

• Do not put stress on the LCD panel or the frame around the screen.

• Be careful to not pinch your hands or the AC power cord when you install the TV unit to the

Table-Top Stand.

B KDL-46/40/32EX52x (except

KDL-40/32EX521 (Mexico models))

• Ensure your TV has adequate

ventilation, see page 15.

• 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.

• When installing the TV on a wall, remove the screws from the rear of the TV. The screws and number of screws are available depending on the TV model. (They are fastened in the screw holes for wall mounting.) Be sure to store the removed screws in a safe place, keeping them away from children.

• When attaching the Table-Top Stand again, be sure to fasten the screws (previously removed) to the original holes on the rear of the TV.

4: 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.

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.

Angle brace

(not supplied)

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.

Stand

2

Secure the TV to the Stand.

Use the optional hardware listed as follows

(not supplied):

• M4 × 10 machine screw (screwed into the TV’s Table-Top Stand)

• 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.

An alternative way to secure the TV is with an optional Sony Support Belt Kit.

M4 × 10 machine screw (not supplied)

5: Bundling the cables

~

• Before bundling the cables, remove the cable holder from the AC cover (see step 1 and 2).

(not supplied)

~

• 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 on 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.

Using a Wall-Mount

Bracket

Your TV can be mounted on a wall using a

Wall-Mount Bracket (not supplied) out of the box as packaged. If the Table-Top Stand is attached to the TV, the TV may require detaching the Table-Top Stand; see step 2

on page 8.

Prepare the TV for the Wall-Mount Bracket before making cable connections.

For product protection and safety reasons, Sony strongly recommends that you use the Wall-Mount Bracket designed for your TV and the installation should be performed by a Sony dealer or licensed contractor.

• Follow the instruction guide provided with the Wall-Mount Bracket for your model. Sufficient expertise is required in installing this TV, especially to determine the strength of the wall for withstanding the TV’s weight.

14


4-267-38511 (1)


• Be sure to use the screws supplied with the Wall-mount bracket when attaching the mounting hooks to the TV set.

The supplied screws are designed so that they are 8 mm to 12 mm in length when measured from the attaching surface of the mounting hook.

The diameter and length of the screws differ depending on the Wall-mount bracket model. Use of screws other than those supplied may result in internal damage to the TV set or cause it to fall, etc.

Setting up the Internet connection

Using the network feature you can connect the TV to the Internet. The setup procedure differs depending on the type of network and LAN router. Before setting up the

Internet connection, be sure to set up a LAN router. Check your wireless LAN environment using the following chart.

* Type 1 is easier to set up if your router has an automatic setting button, e.g. Air Station One-

Touch Secure System (AOSS). Most of the latest routers have this function. Check your router.

Type 1: Secured network with

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)

The WPS standard makes security of a wireless home network as straightforward as pressing the WPS button on the wireless

LAN router. Before setting up a wireless

LAN, check the location of the WPS button on the router and verify how to use it.

For security purpose, WPS (PIN) provides a PIN code for your router. PIN code is renewed every time you select WPS (PIN) .

Wireless LAN Router”.


“Wired network setup”.

Type 2: Secured network without Wi-Fi Protected Setup

• If you use WPS for network setup, the security settings of the wireless LAN router activate, and any equipment previously connected to the wireless LAN in a non-secure status will be disconnected from the network.

In this case, activate the security settings of the disconnected equipment and then reconnect.

Or, you can deactivate the security settings of the wireless LAN router, and then connect the equipment to a TV in a non-secure status.
