Sony KV-36XBR450 User Manual

To reduce the risk of fire or shock hazard, do not expose the TV to 
rain or moisture.

This symbol is intended to alert the user to the 
presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” 
within the product’s enclosure that may be of 
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of 
electric shock to persons.

This symbol is intended to alert the user to the 
presence of important operating and maintenance 
(servicing) instructions in the literature 
accompanying the appliance.

TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE BLADE OF 
PLUG TO WIDE SLOT, FULLY INSERT.

When using TV games, computers, and similar products with your 
TV, keep the brightness and contrast functions at low settings. If a 
fixed (non-moving) pattern is left on the screen for long periods of 
time at a high brightness or contrast setting, the image can be 
permanently imprinted onto the screen. Continuously watching 
the same program can cause the imprint of station logos onto the 
TV screen. These types of imprints are not covered by your 
warranty because they are the result of misuse.

This television receiver provides display of television closed 
captioning in accordance with §15.119 of the FCC rules.

Clean the TV with a soft dry cloth. Never use strong solvents such 
as thinner or benzine, which might damage the finish of the 
cabinet.

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s 
attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for 
proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground 
shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close 
to the point of cable entry as practical.

Use of this television receiver for other than private viewing of 
programs broadcast on UHF or VHF or transmitted by cable 
companies for the use of the general public may require 
authorization from the broadcaster/cable company and/or 
program owner.

If any liquid or solid object should fall inside the cabinet, 
unplug the TV immediately and have it checked by qualified 
service personnel before operating it further.

❑

To prevent internal heat buildup, do not block the ventilation 
openings.

❑
