Safety 
Information
Installation/Set-upInstall and use the TV set in accordance 
with the instructions below in order to 
avoid any risk of fire, electrical shock or 
damage and/or injuries.
Installation The TV set should be installed near an 
easily accessible mains socket.
 Place the TV set on a stable, level 
surface.
 Only qualified service personnel should 
carry out wall installations.
 For safety reasons, it is strongly 
recommended that you use Sony 
accessories, including:
– Wall-mount bracket 
SU-WL500
(KDL-42EX410/KDL-32EX310)
SU-WL100
(KDL-22EX310)
 Be sure to use the screws supplied with 
the Wall-mount bracket when attaching 
the mounting hooks to the TV set. The 
supplied screws are designed as 
indicated by illustration when measured 
from the attaching surface of the 
mounting hook. The diameter and length 
of the screws differ depending on the 
Wall-mount bracket model. Use of 
screws other than those supplied may 
result in internal damage to the TV set or 
cause it to fall, etc.
Transporting Before transporting the TV set, 
disconnect all cables.
 Two or three people are needed to 
transport a large TV set.
 When transporting the TV set by hand, 
hold it as shown in the illustration. Do 
not put stress on the LCD panel and the 
frame around the screen.
 When lifting or moving the TV set, hold 
it firmly from the bottom.
 When transporting the TV set, do not 
subject it to jolts or excessive vibration.
 When transporting the TV set for repairs 
or when moving, pack it using the 
original carton and packing material.
Ventilation Never cover the ventilation holes or 
insert anything in the cabinet.
 Leave space around the TV set as shown 
below.
 It is strongly recommended that you use 
a Sony wall-mount bracket in order to 
provide adequate air-circulation.
Installed on the wall
Installed with stand
 To ensure proper ventilation and prevent 
the collection of dirt or dust:
– Do not lay the TV set flat, install 
upside down, backwards, or 
sideways.
– Do not place the TV set on a shelf, 
rug, bed or in a closet.
– Do not cover the TV set with a cloth, 
such as curtains, or items such as 
newspapers, etc.
– Do not install the TV set as shown 
below.
Mains lead
Handle the mains lead and socket as 
follows in order to avoid any risk of fire, 
electrical shock or damage and/or injuries:
– Use only mains leads supplied by 
Sony, not other suppliers.
– Insert the plug fully into the mains 
socket.
– Operate the TV set on a 220–240 V AC 
supply only.
– When wiring cables, be sure to unplug 
the mains lead for your safety and take 
care not to catch your feet on the 
cables.
– Disconnect the mains lead from the 
mains socket before working on or 
moving the TV set.– Keep the mains lead away from heat 
sources.
– Unplug the mains plug and clean it 
regularly. If the plug is covered with 
dust and it picks up moisture, its 
insulation may deteriorate, which 
could result in a fire. 
Notes Do not use the supplied mains lead on 
any other equipment.
 Do not pinch, bend, or twist the mains 
lead excessively. The core conductors 
may be exposed or broken.
 Do not modify the mains lead.
 Do not put anything heavy on the mains 
lead.
 Do not pull on the mains lead itself when 
disconnecting the mains lead.
 Do not connect too many appliances to 
the same mains socket.
 Do not use a poor fitting mains socket.
Prohibited UsageDo not install/use the TV set in locations, 
environments or situations such as those 
listed below, or the TV set may 
malfunction and cause a fire, electrical 
shock, damage and/or injuries.
Location: Outdoors (in direct sunlight), at the 
seashore, on a ship or other vessel, inside 
a vehicle, in medical institutions, 
unstable locations, near water, rain, 
moisture or smoke.
 If the TV is placed in the changing room 
of a public bath or hot spring, the TV 
may be damaged by airborne sulfur, etc.
Cleaning:Do not spray water or detergent directly on 
the TV set. It may drip to the bottom of the 
screen or exterior parts and get inside, 
resulting in a malfunction.
Environment: Places that are hot, humid, or excessively 
dusty; where insects may enter; where it 
might be exposed to mechanical 
vibration, near flammable objects 
(candles, etc). The TV set shall not be 
exposed to dripping or splashing and no 
objects filled with liquids, such as vases, 
shall be placed on the TV.
 Do not place the TV in a humid or dusty 
space, or in a room with oily smoke or 
steam (near cooking tables or 
humidifiers). Fire, electric shock, or 
warping may result.

with the cabinet removed, or with 
attachments not recommended by the 
manufacturer. Disconnect the TV set 
from mains socket and aerial during
