necessary to clean the inside of the TV. Consult qualified service

personnel.

s Unplug the AC power cord when cleaning this unit.

Cleaning this unit with a plugged AC power cord

may result in electric shock.

On Contamination on the Screen Surface

The screen surface has a special coating to reduce reflections. To prevent

screen damage, clean the screen as follows:

s Clean the screen with a soft cloth.

s To remove hard contamination, use a cloth moistened with a solution

of mild detergent and water. Do not spray cleaning solution directly

onto the TV. It should only be sprayed to moisten the cleaning cloth.

s Do not use any type of abrasive pad, alkaline cleaner, acid cleaner,

scouring powder, chemical cloth, or solvent such as alcohol, benzene

or thinner, as these may scratch the screen’s coating.

Service

Damage Requiring Service

Do not attempt to service the set by yourself since

opening the cabinet may expose you to dangerous

voltage or other hazards.

Unplug the set from the wall outlet and refer servicing to

qualified service personnel.

Replacement Parts

When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician

certifies in writing that he has used replacement parts specified by the

manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the original parts.

Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other

hazards.

See “Replacing the Lamp” on page 49.

For Safety

Be Careful When Moving the

TV

When you place the TV in position, be careful

not to drop it on your foot or fingers.

Watch your footing while installing the TV.

Carry the TV in the Specified

Manner

If you carry the TV in a manner other than the specified manner and

without the specified number of persons, it may drop and a serious injury

may be caused. Be sure to follow the instructions mentioned below.

s Carry the TV with the specified number of persons (see page 10).

s Hold the TV tightly when carrying it.

s Before carrying the TV, disconnect any accessories or cables.

For Safe Operations

Always switch off by pressing POWER button on the remote or the TV

first to ensure proper lamp cooling process.

Caution

Do not use the TV at altitudes higher than 3,000 m, as doing so might

cause malfunction.

About the TV

Although the TV is made with high-precision technology, black dots may

appear or bright points of light (red, blue, or green) may appear constantly

on the screen. This is a structural property of the panel and is not a defect.

Installation

s If direct sunlight or other strong illumination shines on the screen,

part of the screen may appear white due to reflections from behind the

screen. This is a structural property of the TV.

Do not expose the screen to direct illumination or direct sunlight.

s The picture quality may be affected by your viewing position. For the

best picture quality, install your TV according to “Recommended

Viewing Area” on page 12.

s When installing your TV against a wall, keep it at least 4 inches (10

cm) away from the wall.

Projection Lamp

s Your TV uses a projection lamp as its light source. It is time to replace

the lamp with a new one (not supplied) when:

• the message, “Projection lamp is nearing end of life. Please

replace the lamp.” appears on the screen,

• the lamp replacement indicator on the front panel blinks in red,

• screen images become dark,

• no image appears on the display after prolonged use.

s In rare instances, the bulb may pop inside the lamp unit, but the lamp

unit is designed to contain all of broken glass pieces inside the lamp

unit. (See “Replacing the Lamp” on page 49.)

s When the lamp eventually burns out, you may hear a noticeable pop

sound. This is normal and is inherent in this type of lamp.

Cooling Fans

This TV uses cooling fans. You may hear the noise of fans running,

depending on the placement of your TV. The noise may be more

noticeable during the night or when the background noise level is low.

Disposal of Used Batteries

To preserve our environment, dispose of used batteries according to your

local laws or regulations.

For Customers in the United States

Lamp in this product contains mercury. Disposal of

these materials may be regulated due to

environmental considerations. For disposal or

recycling information, please contact your local

authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance

(http://www.eiae.org).

Welcome to the World of BRAVIA™

The Four Steps to Full HD Experience: Set, Sound, Source, and Setup

Along with your BRAVIA TV set, a complete HD system requires an HD sound system, a

source of HD programming and proper setup connections. This manual explains basic setup

connections (see page 17). The Quick Setup Guide, enclosed separately, illustrates how to

connect other optional equipment.

Thank you for purchasing this Sony BRAVIA™ high-definition television. The quality of the image

you see on your BRAVIA TV is only as good as the quality of the signal it receives. To experience

the full detail of your new BRAVIA TV, you need access to HD programming. Your BRAVIA TV can

receive and display HD programming from:

• Over-the-air broadcasting via HD-quality antenna

• HD cable subscription

• HD satellite subscription

• Blu-ray Disc™ Player or other external equipment

Contact your cable or satellite provider for information on upgrading to HD programming.

To learn more about HDTV, visit: http://www.sony.com/HDTV

Picture Quality and Aspect Ratio

You can enjoy crisp, clear images, smooth movement and high-impact visuals from 1080 HD

signals. When you compare a high-definition signal to a standard analog signal, you will notice

a big difference. The 1080 HD signals provide more than twice the vertical resolution of the

standard TV signal.

High-definition and standard-definition signals are transmitted with different aspect ratios (the

width-to-height ratio of the image). HDTV uses a wider screen than conventional standard-

definition TV.

~

• You can use the Wide Mode function of the TV to adjust the 4:3 image to fit the entire screen (see pages 26, 40

and 42).

16:9 (high-definition) source

Most HDTV signals use a wide screen aspect rati

o

of 16:9. The 16:9 fills your BRAVIA screen and

maintains a crisp, clear, vivid picture.

4:3 (standard-definition) source

Most standard-definition signals use a boxy 4:3

aspect ratio. When a 4:3 image is displayed on an

HDTV, you will see black bars on the sides. The

picture quality may not be as sharp as with HD

sources.

Getting Started

1. Installing the TV

Carrying the TV requires four people.

Do not carry the TV by grasping only the front

panel. Avoid holding the bottom middle part of the

screen. Doing so may damage the panel.

When moving the TV, hold it as shown in the

illustration below.

When lifting the rear and side, place the hands in

the holes on the lower portion of the cabinet.

Your viewing position may affect the picture

quality.

For the best picture quality, install your TV within

the areas shown below.

To minimize reflection, the screen surface has a

special coating.

Inappropriate cleaning methods could damage the

screen surface. Special care is required.

Cleaning the Screen Surface

Dust and dirt on the screen can affect the picture

quality. To dust off the screen use a soft cloth. Be

sure to follow the cleaning instruction on page 7

for stubborn stains and dirt.

Temporary Image Retention

When high contrast non-moving images such as

station logos and channel numbers are displayed

for a long period of time, there may be some image

retention on the screen. This is only a temporary

condition. Turning off the power for a while or

letting the TV run on another channel will

eliminate the image retention.

Your TV uses a projection lamp as its light source.

As with any lamp, it has a lifespan and needs to be

replaced when the Lamp Indicator flashes or the

screen becomes darker. Your TV also has a

function to display a message, “Projection lamp is

nearing end of life. Please replace the lamp.” to let

you know that the lamp has reached its expected

lifespan. Note the following:

s After turning on your TV, it may take a while

(one minute or less) before the picture

appears.

s When the projection lamp wears out, the

screen goes dark. Replace the lamp with a

new Sony XL-5200 replacement lamp (not

supplied).

s After lamp is replaced, please set the Lamp

Replacement option in the General

settings (see page 48).

“How to Replace the Lamp”, see page 49.

~

• The light emitted from the lamp is quite bright when

your TV is in use. To avoid eye discomfort or injury,

do not look into the light housing when the power is

on.

Getting Started

3. Connecting the TV

You can enjoy high-definition and standard-

definition digital programming (if available in

your area) along with standard-definition analog

programming.

~

• This TV is capable of receiving unscrambled digital

programming for both cable (QAM and 8VSB) and

external VHF/UHF antenna (ATSC).

• It is strongly recommended that you connect the

antenna/cable input using a 75-ohm coaxial cable to

receive optimum picture quality. A 300-ohm twin lead

cable can be easily affected by radio frequency

interference, resulting in signal degradation.

Cable or VHF/UHF (or VHF only)

Use an optional A-B RF switch (not supplied) to

switch between the cable and over-the-air antenna

programming, as indicated below.

~

• Be sure to set the Cable setting to On or Off in the

Channel settings for the type of input signal you

choose (see page 44).

You can also enjoy high-definition programming

by subscribing to a high-definition cable service or

a high-definition satellite service. For the best

possible picture, make sure you connect this

equipment to your TV via the HDMI or

component video (with audio) input on the back of

your TV.
