Getting Started
Securing the TV
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. See
page 41 (Installing the TV to the Wall) if you
want to mount the TV to a wall. 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 (not supplied)
and the supplied screws to complete the
task. Look for the supplied Setup Guide.
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.
• Do not put stress on the LCD panel or
the frame around the screen.
• Ensure your TV has adequate
ventilation, see page 42.
• 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.
• Avoid moving the TV from a cold area
to a warm area. Sudden room
temperature changes may cause
moisture condensation. This may
cause the TV to show poor picture
and/or poor color. Should this occur,
allow moisture to evaporate
completely before powering the TV on.
Sony strongly recommends taking
measures to prevent the TV from
toppling over. Unsecured TVs may
topple and result in property
damage, serious bodily injury or
even death.
Preventing the TV from Toppling
• Secure the TV to a wall and/or stand.
• Do not allow children to play or climb
on furniture and TV sets.
• Avoid placing or hanging items on the
TV.
• Never install the TV on:

slippery, unstable and/or uneven
surfaces.

furniture that can easily be used as
steps, such as a chest of drawers.
• Install the TV where it cannot be
pulled, pushed, or knocked over.
• Install the TV so that the TV's Table-Top
Stand does not protrudes out from the
Stand (not supplied). If the Table-Top
Stand protrudes out from the Stand, it
may cause TV set to topple over, fall
down, and cause personal injury or
damage to the TV.
• Route all AC power cords and
connecting cables so that they are not
accessible to curious children.
