Please Do Not Return 

the Product to the Store

Initial Setup instructions are displayed on the screen when your BRAVIA is powered on 

for the first time.

Select the language for the OSD (on screen display).

Select the type of use. (Select Home for compliance with 

ENERGY STAR.)

Connect either cable or antenna to your TV. You can 

connect both using an A-B RF switch (not supplied). If 

you connect cable, the TV will scan cable channels. After 

this scanning, you can search antenna channels as well.

If you have both cable and antenna connections available, please 

connect cable first.
If you are not using the CABLE/ANTENNA connection to TV 

(for example, if using a cable or satellite box), you can cancel the 

Auto Program by selecting Cancel.

If the Initial Setup programming found cable channels, 

you will be able to scan antenna channels as well.  

Connect the antenna (using an A-B RF switch, not 

supplied) and change the switch to antenna, then start 

Auto Program to search antenna channels.

If you did not follow the Initial Setup screen the first time  

you turned on your TV, refer to your Operating Instructions 

Manual.

Whether you are watching cable, satellite or broadcast TV; playing a VCR, DVD or Blu-ray 

Disc; or connecting to your PC, you need to choose the correct input using your remote 

control:

Press the INPUT button repeatedly until your selection is highlighted on-screen.

High Definition and Standard Definition signals are transmitted with different aspect 

ratios (the width-to-height ratio of the image).  

The 16:9 aspect ratio (common to most HD signals) looks perfect on your BRAVIA.

The boxy 4:3 aspect ratio (common to most SD signals) must be adjusted to fill the screen.  

Press the WIDE button on your remote control to display the Wide Mode setting of 

your preference.

You can choose optimum sound and picture settings to match the content you are 

displaying on your TV:

Press the remote control’s MENU button, highlight and select the Picture and Sound 

settings to adjust the picture and sound quality of your content.

Refer to your Operating Instructions Manual for more information on adjusting or 

customizing your settings.

 BRAVIA® 

Congratulations! Your new BRAVIA® TV opens the door to the “Stunning HD Experience”. 

This guide will explain how to get the most from your new High Definition TV.
Please take these steps before you power up your BRAVIA:

Register online at:  http://productregistration.sony.com (from U.S.A.) 

http://www.SonyStyle.ca/registration (from Canada)

Make sure you’ve removed all accessory contents from packaging.

Install 2 AA batteries (supplied separately) in your remote control.

Determine whether you will mount your TV on a wall or place it on the Table-Top 

Stand. Sony wall-mounting brackets are designed to provide the best fit.

Give your TV 2 

3

/

8

 inches (6 cm) of space behind it to properly ventilate.

The quality of the image you see on your BRAVIA can only be as high as the quality of 

the signal it is receiving.

Contact your cable or satellite provider to upgrade your service to HD. Receive over-the-

air HD broadcasts with an HD-quality antenna (www.antennaweb.org) and discover the 

wealth of entertainment now available on super-high-resolution Blu-ray Disc™.

Your BRAVIA TV must be properly connected to components such as sound system and 

cable or satellite box.

Turn off and unplug all components before making connections.

Do not turn on the TV until connection setup is completed.

See reverse side of this poster for sample connection diagrams.

HDMI cable carries both 
video and audio signals.
(*When HDMI is connected to 
DVI with an adapter, a separate 
audio L/R is necessary.)
