without anchoring both the furniture and 
the television to a suitable support.
Not standing the televisions on cloth or 
other materials placed between the

Precautions
Viewing the TVSome people may experience discomfort 
(such as eye strain, fatigue, or nausea) 
while watching 3D video images or 
playing 3D video games. Sony 
recommends that all viewers take regular 
breaks while watching 3D video images or 
playing 3D video games. The length and 
frequency of necessary breaks will vary 
from person to person. You must decide 
what works best. If you experience any 
discomfort, you should stop watching the 
3D video images or playing 3D video 
games until the discomfort ends; consult a 
doctor if you believe necessary. You 
should also review (i) the instruction 
manual of any other device or media used 
with this television and (ii) our website 
(http://www.sony-asia.com/support) for 
the latest information. The vision of young 
children (especially those under six years 
old) is still under development. Consult 
your doctor (such as a pediatrician or eye 
doctor) before allowing young children to 
watch 3D video images or play 3D video 
games. Adults should supervise young 
children to ensure they follow the 
recommendations listed above.
When using the simulated 3D function, 
please note that the displayed image is 
modified from the original due to the 
conversion done by this television.
View the TV in moderate light, as viewing 
the TV in poor light or during long period 
of time, strains your eyes.
When using headphones, adjust the 
volume so as to avoid excessive levels, as 
hearing damage may result.
LCD ScreenAlthough the LCD screen is made with 
high-precision technology and 99.99% or 
more of the pixels are effective, black dots 
may appear or bright points of light (red, 
blue, or green) may appear constantly on 
the LCD screen. This is a structural 
property of the LCD screen and is not a 
malfunction.
Do not push or scratch the front filter, or 
place objects on top of this TV set. The 
image may be uneven or the LCD screen 
may be damaged.
If this TV set is used in a cold place, a 
smear may occur in the picture or the 
picture may become dark. This does not 
indicate a failure. These phenomena 
disappear as the temperature rises.
Ghosting may occur when still pictures are 
displayed continuously. It may disappear 
after a few moments.
The screen and cabinet get warm when 
this TV set is in use. This is not a 
malfunction.
The LCD screen contains a small amount 
of liquid crystal. Some fluorescent tubes 
used in this TV set also contain mercury 
(except LED backlight LCD TV). Follow 
your local ordinances and regulations for 
disposal.
Do not subject the LCD screen to any 
strong impact or shock. The screen glass 
may crack or shatter and cause injury.
Handling and cleaning the 
screen surface/cabinet of the 
TV set
Be sure to unplug the AC power cord 
connected to the TV set from AC power 
outlet before cleaning.
To avoid material degradation or screen 
coating degradation, observe the following 
precautions.
To remove dust from the screen surface/
cabinet, wipe gently with a soft cloth. If 
dust is persistent, wipe with a soft cloth 
slightly moistened with a diluted mild 
detergent solution.
Do not spray water or detergent directly 
on the TV set. It may drip to the bottom of 
the screen or exterior parts, and may cause 
a malfunction.
Never use any type of abrasive pad, 
alkaline/acid cleaner, scouring powder, or 
volatile solvent, such as alcohol, benzene, 
thinner or insecticide. Using such 
materials or maintaining prolonged 
contact with rubber or vinyl materials may 
result in damage to the screen surface and 
cabinet material.
Periodic vacuuming of the ventilation 
openings is recommended to ensure to 
proper ventilation.
When adjusting the angle of the TV set, 
move it slowly so as to prevent the TV set 
from moving or slipping off from its table 
stand.

emitting electromagnetic radiation away 
from the TV set. Otherwise picture 
distortion and/or noisy sound may occur.
Wireless Function of the unitDo not operate this unit near medical 
equipment (pacemaker, etc.), as 
malfunction of the medical equipment 
may result.
Although this unit transmits/receives 
scrambled signals, be careful of 
unauthorised interception. We cannot be 
responsible for any trouble as a result.
