Install and use the TV set in accordance 
with the instructions below in order to 
avoid any risk of fire, electrical shock or 
damage and/or injuries.

• The TV set should be installed near an 

easily accessible mains socket.

• Place the TV set on a stable, level 

surface.

• Only qualified service personnel should 

carry out wall installations.

• For safety reasons, it is strongly 

recommended that you use Sony

–

Wall-mount bracket SU-WL500

• 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.

• Before 

transporting the 
TV set, disconnect 
all cables.

• Two or three 

people are needed 
to transport a large 
TV set.

• When transporting 

the TV set by 
hand, hold it as 
shown on the 
right. Do not put 
stress on the LCD 
panel and the 
frame around the 
screen.

original carton and packing material.

• Never cover the ventilation holes or 

insert anything in the cabinet.

• Leave space around the TV set as shown 

below.

• It is strongly recommended that you use 

a Sony wall-mount bracket in order to 
provide adequate air-circulation.

• To ensure proper ventilation and prevent 

the collection of dirt or dust:
–

Do not lay the TV set flat, install 
upside down, backwards, or 
sideways.

–

Do not place the TV set on a shelf, 
rug, bed or in a closet.

Do not cover the TV set with a cloth, 
such as curtains, or items such as

Handle the mains lead and socket as 
follows in order to avoid any risk of fire, 
electrical shock or damage and/or injuries:

–

Use only mains leads supplied by 
Sony, not other suppliers.

–

Insert the plug fully into the mains 
socket.

–

Operate the TV set on a 220-240 V AC 
supply only.

–

When wiring cables, be sure to unplug 
the mains lead for your safety and take 
care not to catch your feet on the 
cables.

–

Disconnect the mains lead from the 
mains socket before working on or 
moving the TV set.

–

Keep the mains lead away from heat 
sources.

–

Unplug the mains plug and clean it 
regularly. If the plug is covered with 
dust and it picks up moisture, its 
insulation may deteriorate, which 
could result in a fire. 

• Do not use the supplied mains lead on 

any other equipment.

• Do not pinch, bend, or twist the mains 

lead excessively. The core conductors 
may be exposed or broken.

• Do not modify the mains lead.
• Do not put anything heavy on the mains 

lead.

• Do not pull on the mains lead itself when 

disconnecting the mains lead.

• Do not connect too many appliances to 

the same mains socket.

• Do not use a poor fitting mains socket.

Do not install/use the TV set in locations, 
environments or situations such as those 
listed below, or the TV set may 
malfunction and cause a fire, electrical 
shock, damage and/or injuries.

Outdoors (in direct sunlight), at the 
seashore, on a ship or other vessel, inside a 
vehicle, in medical institutions, unstable 
locations, near water, rain, moisture or 
smoke.

Places that are hot, humid, or excessively 
dusty; where insects may enter; where it 
might be exposed to mechanical vibration, 
near flammable objects (candles, etc). The 
TV set shall not be exposed to dripping or 
splashing and no objects filled with 
liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on 
the TV.

Do not use when your hands are wet, with 
the cabinet removed, or with attachments 
not recommended by the manufacturer. 
Disconnect the TV set from mains socket 
and aerial during lightning storms.

• Do not throw anything at the TV set. The 

screen glass may break by the impact 
and cause serious injury.

• If the surface of the TV set cracks, do 

not touch it until you have unplugged the 
mains lead. Otherwise electric shock 
may result.

• If you will not be using the TV set for 

several days, the TV set should be 
disconnected from the mains for 
environmental and safety reasons. 

• As the TV set is not disconnected from 

the mains when the TV set is just turned 
off, pull the plug from the mains to 
disconnect the TV set completely.

• However, some TV sets may have 

features that require the TV set to be left 
in standby to work correctly.
