Some people may experience 
discomfort (such as eye strain, 
fatigue, or nausea) while watching 
3D video images or playing 
stereoscopic 3D games. Sony 
recommends that all viewers take 
regular breaks while watching 3D 
video images or playing 
stereoscopic 3D 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 stereoscopic 3D 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 
(www.sony.com/tvsupport) 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 stereoscopic 3D 
games. Adults should supervise 
young children to ensure they 
follow the recommendations 
listed above.
Do not use, store, or leave the 3D 
Glasses or the battery near fire, or 
in places with a high temperature, 
e.g., in direct sunlight, or in 
sun-heated cars.
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.

Programming the Remote Control
Your remote control can be programmed to use other equipment and is pre-programmed to 
operate the following Sony equipment.
Programming Other Equipment

programming is complete. If not, try the next code listed.
~
 In some cases, you may not be able to program your remote control. If this is the case, use your 
equipment’s own remote control.
 Any of the function buttons (DVD, AMP, STB) can be programmed to operate other equipment 
regardless of the labeling. For example, if programmed with the correct code, a Blu-ray Disc player

Press SCENE, TV POWER, and   simultaneously. The four function buttons (DV D, 
AMP, STB, and TV) blink when successfully reset.Follow the steps below to program your TV remote control.

i-Manual) that corresponds to the equipment you would like to 
operate with the Sony remote control. If more than one code is 
provided, try programming the first code listed. If your 
equipment’s code is not listed, visit 
http://esupport.sony.com/remotecodes
 for a more comprehensive 
list.

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. 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 and the supplied screws 
to complete the task. Look for the attachment 
instructions provided with the TV. 
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. 
 Ensure your TV has adequate 
ventilation, see page 16.
 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. 
 If the TV is brought directly from a cold 
to a warm location, or is placed in a very 
damp room, or is placed in a room in 
which heating has just been turned on, 
moisture may condense on the surface or 
inside the TV. Should this occur, turn off 
the TV and leave the TV off until the 
moisture evaporates, and then the TV 
can be used. If you notice moisture 
condensation between the glass panel 
and the LCD, turn on the TV and the 
condensation will evaporate after the TV 
has warmed up.
Attaching the Table-Top 
Stand
Refer to the supplied Table-Top Stand 
instruction leaflet for proper attachment for 
some TV models.
~
Do not put stress on the LCD panel or the 
frame around the screen.
Be careful to not pinch your hands or the AC 
power cord when you install the TV unit to the 
Table-Top Stand.
For KDL-52/46NX800 and KDL-46/
40NX700
1Gently slide the TV unit onto the 
Table-Top Stand and align the screw 
holes.
2Use the supplied screws to attach the
