☐ Wall-mount installation

requires the use of a

Wall-Mount Bracket. When

installing or removing the TV and the

Wall-Mount Bracket, be sure to use qualified

contractors. If not properly secured during

installation or removal from the Wall-Mount

Bracket, the TV may fall and cause serious

injury.

☐ Be sure to follow the installation guide

supplied with the Wall-Mount Bracket when

installing the TV.

☐ Be sure to attach the brackets with the

specified parts supplied with the Wall-Mount

Bracket.

☐ Do not hang the TV from the ceiling. It may

fall and cause serious injury.

☐ Do not hang anything on the TV.

☐ Do not allow children to climb on

the TV.

☐ Do not touch the AC power cord

and its plug with wet hands as it

may cause electric shock.

☐ When disconnecting the AC

power cord, grasp the plug and

disconnect from the wall outlet

first. Do not pull by the cord.

☐ Keep the power cord away from heat sources.
A TV set with a three-wire grounding type AC

power cord plug must be connected to an AC

power outlet with a protective earthing

connection.

☐ Do not convert or damage the AC power

cord.

☐ Consult your electrician to have the outlet

changed to suit your TV.

Subjecting the AC power cord to wear and/or

abuse can damage the AC power cord and your

TV.

☐ Do not place the TV where the power cord

can be easily pinched, bent, twisted, or catch

your feet.

☐ Do not allow anything to rest on or roll over

the cord.

☐ Before connecting cables, be sure to unplug

the AC power cord for your safety.

☐ Do not move the TV with the AC power cord

(or other cables such as audio and video)

connected.

☐ Use only an original Sony AC power cord

with your TV; no brand substitution is

allowed.

☐ Do not use AC power cord supplied with the

TV with any other equipment.

☐ Never use a damaged AC power

cord. A damaged AC power cord

can cause a short-circuit, which

may result in a fire or electric

shock.

Do not use a damaged or poorly

fitting AC power outlet as your TV’s

power source.

☐ Insert the plug fully into the outlet.

If it is loose, it may cause arcing and

result in a fire.

☐ Do not overload the same AC

power outlet.

Unplugging the AC power cord from the wall

outlet will completely remove power from the

TV.

☐ During lightning storms or

when the TV is left unattended

and unused for extended

periods of time, the AC power

cord should be unplugged

from the wall outlet. This will

avoid possible damage to your

TV. Also unplug the antenna

to prevent damage to the TV.

☐ For energy conservation and safety reasons,

practice unplugging the AC power cord from

the AC power outlet.

Unplug the AC power plug and

clean it occasionally to avoid

dust from accumulating. While

cleaning, look for signs of damage. A damaged

AC power cord should never be used.

Keep small accessories out of children’s reach.

Use only the specified accessories with this TV.

☐ When using headphones, adjust

the volume to avoid excessive

audio levels from causing

possible hearing loss.

Your remote control batteries are consumables.

☐ To preserve our environment, dispose of

used batteries according to your local laws

or regulations.

☐ Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.

☐ Do not short-circuit, disassemble or

overheat the batteries.

☐ Replace only with the same or equivalent

type of batteries. Using incorrect replace-

ment batteries can lead to an explosion.

☐ Although the LCD screen is made with

high-precision technology and has

effective pixels of 99.99% or more, black

dots or bright points of light (red, blue, or

green) may appear constantly on the LCD

screen. This is a structural property of the

LCD panel and is not a malfunction.

☐ The LCD screen is made with high-preci-

sion technology and to achieve a high level

of performance and picture quality, this

TV’s backlight setting is set to maximize

the brightness of the TV. However, uneven

brightness may be observed when the LCD

TV is viewed in a dark ambient without an

input source or with a blank screen. This

condition is normal and not a malfunction

of the TV. Changing the Picture mode,

Backlight setting, enabling the Light

Sensor (if applicable), or turning on the

Power Management will improve this

condition.

☐ To avoid damaging the LCD panel, do not

expose the LCD screen to direct sunlight.

☐ Do not push or scratch the LCD screen, or

place objects on top of the TV. The images

may be uneven or the LCD panel may be

damaged.

☐ If the TV is used in a cold place, the

picture may smear or become dark. This

does not indicate a failure. These phenom-

ena improve as the temperature rises.

☐ Ghosting may occur when still pictures are

displayed continuously. It should disappear

after a few moments.

☐ The LCD screen and enclosure get warm

when the TV is in use. This is not a

malfunction.

☐ Avoid spraying insect repellent with

volatile material on the LCD screen.

☐ Avoid prolonged contact with rubber or

plastic material to the LCD screen.

Do not throw anything at the

TV as the impact can cause

the LCD screen glass to

crack, break or scatter.

☐ If damage occurs to the

LCD panel, small traces of liquid crystal

sandwiched between the glass may be

found on scattered broken glass.

☐ Do not touch the broken glass with bare

hands. As with any broken glass pieces,

avoid skin contact and exposure to your

eyes or mouth. Avoid direct contact with

liquid or damp surfaces of the glass as

these may have an adverse effect on some

people. The contacted area should be

rinsed thoroughly with water. If conditions

persist, see your doctor.

☐ If the surface of the TV cracks, do not

touch the TV until you have unplugged the

AC power cord. Otherwise electric shock

may result.

Do not use the TV if you

suspect the TV is damaged or

if the TV is damaged.

☐ Do not attempt to service

the TV yourself since

opening the cabinet may

expose you to dangerous

voltage levels or other

hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified

service personnel.

☐ If replacement parts are

required, acquire a written

certification from the service

technician which states that

adequate replacement parts

with the same or similar characteristics as

the original parts have been used.

Unauthorized substitutions may result in a

fire, an electric shock or other hazards.

☐ Upon completion of any TV

servicing or repair, ask the

service technician to perform

routine safety checks as

specified by Sony and to

certify that the TV is safe to operate. Have

a qualified service technician dispose of

the TV if it is not safe to operate.
