Precautions
On viewing the TV comfortably
To view the TV comfortably, the recommended viewing position is from four to seven times of the screen’s
vertical length away from the TV set.
View the TV in a moderate light room, as viewing the TV in poor light taxes your eyes. Watching the screen
continuously for long periods of time can also tax your eyes.
On installing the TV set
Do not install the TV in places subject to extreme temperature, for example in direct sunlight, or near a radiator,
or heating vent. If the TV set is exposed to extreme temperature, the TV set may heat up and it may cause
deformations of the casing or cause the TV set to malfunction.
After transporting the TV directly from a cold to a warm location, or if the room temperature has changed
suddenly, pictures may be blurred or show poor colour over portions of the picture. This is because moisture has
condensed on the mirrors or lenses inside the TV set. In this case let the moisture evaporate before using the TV
set.
To obtain a clear picture, do not expose the screen to direct illumination or direct sunlight. If possible, use spot
lighting directed down from the ceiling.
The TV set is not disconnected from the mains when the switch is in Off position. To disconnect the set
completely, pull the plug from the mains.
On volume adjustment
Adjust the volume so as not to trouble neighbours. Sound carries very easily at night time. Therefore, closing the
windows or using headphones is suggested.
When using headphones, adjust the volume so as to avoid excessive levels, as hearing damage may result.
On handling the remote control
Handle the remote control with care. Do not drop or step on it, or spill liquid of any kind onto it.
Do not place the remote control in a location near a heat source, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, or in a
damp room.
On cleaning the cabinet
Be sure to unplug the mains lead before cleaning.
Clean the cabinet with the supplied cleaning cloth or a soft cloth lightly dampened. Do not use any type of abrasive
pad, alkaline cleaner, scouring powder or solvent, such as alcohol or benzine, or antistatic spray.
Note that material deterioration or screen coating degradation may occur if the TV is exposed to a volatile solvent,
such as alcohol, thinner, benzine or insecticide, or if prolonged contact is maintained with rubber or vinyl
materials.
The ventilation holes can accumulate dust over a period of time and the accumulated dust may make the cooling
function of the built-in fan less effective. To prevent this, we recommend removing the dust periodically (once a
month) using a vacuum cleaner.
On handling and cleaning the screen surface
The screen of this TV has an anti-reflection screen coating. To avoid screen degradation, follow the points mentioned
below. Do not push on or scratch with hard objects, or throw anything at the screen. The screen may be damaged.
Be sure to unplug the mains lead before cleaning.
Do not touch the TV after operating continuously for along period as the display panel becomes hot.
The screen of this TV has an anti-reflection screen coating. We recommend that the screen surface is touched as
little as possible.
Clean the screen with the supplied cleaning cloth or a soft cloth lightly moistened. Cleaning with dirty cleaning
cloth may result in damage to the TV set. Never use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent, such
as alcohol or benzine. This type of contact may result in damage to the screen surface.

On image
Please note that the PDP (Plasma Display Panel) screen is made with high-precision technology. However, black
points or bright points of light (red, blue, or green) may appear constantly on the PDP screen, and irregular
coloured stripes or brightness may appear on the PDP screen. This is not a malfunction.
With extensive use of this TV set in 4:3 mode, the 4:3 screen area might become darker within a 16:9 panel. To
avoid this problem, the “Smart” picture mode should be used (see page 22).
On image retention
If the following images are displayed for an extended period time, image retention (afterimage) in areas of the
screen may result due to the characteristics of the Plasma Display Panel.
Black bars at the top and bottom that appear with a wide video source (Letterbox picture).
Black bars to the left and right that appear with a 4:3 video source (conventional TV broadcasts).
Video game sources
–PC images
DVD on-screen menu displays
On-screen menus, channel numbers, etc., of connected equipment such as Set top box, Cable modem, VCR,
etc.
The risk of this is higher if the set is in “Live” mode or has a high contrast setting. This image cannot be
removed once burnt onto the screen. To avoid the risk of image retention do not leave the TV set operating
on such a picture, or programme for a long time, use the “Screen Saver” function (page 24) or lower the
contrast setting. Repeated extended daily usage of the same image, or programme can also result in this
occurrence. IMAGE RETENTION IS NOT COVERED BY THE SONY WARRANTY.
To reduce image retention, this TV set has the “Screen Saver” function. The default setting of the “Orbit”
function in “Screen Saver” is “On” (page 24.)
The “Screen Saver” function prevents and reduces image retention. For details see page 24.
On altitude
When used at an altitude of greater than 2300m or 7546 feet (air pressure less than 760hPa), this Plasma TV may
generate a low buzzing sound as a result of the difference between the interior and exterior air pressure of the
panels. This is not considered a defect and is not covered under by the Sony Warranty. This buzzing sound is an
inherent characteristic of any Plasma Display Panel.
