WARNING

Never place a television set in an unstable location. A
television set may fall, causing serious personal injury or
death. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be
avoided by taking simple precautions such as:
 Using cabinets or stands recommended by the

manufacturer of the television set.

 Only using furniture that can safely support the television

set.

 Ensuring the television set is not overhanging the edge

of the supporting furniture.

 Not placing the television set on tall furniture (for

example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring
both the furniture and the television set to a suitable
support.

 Not placing the television set on cloth or other materials

that may be located between the television set and
supporting furniture.

 Educating children about the dangers of climbing on

furniture to reach the television set or its controls.

If your existing television set is being retained and
relocated, the same considerations as above should be
applied.

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. See
page 13 (Installing the TV to the Wall) if you want to mount
the TV to a wall. 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 (not supplied) and the supplied screws
to complete the task. Look for the Setup Guide.

Sufficient expertise is required when installing the TV to
the Table-Top Stand.
Refer to the Setup Guide supplied with the TV for stand
installation.
Sony is not liable for any damage or injury caused by
mishandling or improper installation.

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.

• When handling or mounting

the TV set, do not lay down
the TV.

• Ensure your TV has adequate ventilation, see page 19.
• 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.
