Manual

Cleaning

Unplug the AC power cord when cleaning this

Plasma TV. If not, it may result in electric shock.

AC power cord

If you damage the AC power

cord, it may result in fire or

electric shock.

• Do not pinch, bend, or twist

the cable excessively. The

core lines may be bared

and cut, and cause short-

circuit, resulting in fire

or electric shock.

• Do not convert or

damage the AC power

cord.

• Do not put anything heavy on the AC power

cord. Do not pull the AC power cord.

• Keep the AC power cord away from heat

sources.

• Be sure to grasp the plug when disconnecting

the AC power cord.

If the AC power cord is damaged, stop using it

and ask your dealer or Sony service center to

exchange it.

Not in use

For environmental

and safety reasons, it

is recommended that

the Plasma TV is not

left in standby mode

when not in use. Disconnect from the AC power

outlet.

Cable wiring

Take care not to catch your feet on the cables. It

may damage the Plasma TV.

Installation

Do not install optional components too close to

the Plasma TV. Keep optional components at

least 30 cm away from the Plasma TV. If a VCR is

installed in front or at the right side of the

Plasma TV, the picture may distort.

Heat

Do not touch the surface of the Plasma TV. It

remains hot, even for some time after the Plasma

TV is turned off.

Precautions

On viewing the Plasma TV

comfortably

•To view the Plasma TV comfortably, the

recommended viewing position is from four

to seven times of the screen’s vertical length

away from the Plasma TV.

•View the Plasma TV in a moderate light room,

as viewing the Plasma TV in poor light taxes

your eyes. And watching the screen continu-

ously long times taxes your eyes, too.

On installing the Plasma TV

• Use the specified wall-mount bracket or

stands.

Leave enough space for ventilation between

the exhaust fan in the rear of unit and the

wall.

• Do not install the Plasma TV in places subject

to extreme temperature, for example in direct

sunlight, or near a radiator, or heating vent. If

the Plasma TV is exposed to extreme

temperature, the Plasma TV may heat up and

it may cause deformations of the casing or

malfunctions.

• Do not install the Plasma TV in a place

exposed to direct air conditioning. If the

Plasma TV is installed in such a location,

moisture may condense on the glass or PDP

panel inside the Plasma TV. It may cause a

malfunction.

• After transporting the Plasma TV directly

from a cold to a warm location, or if the room

temperature has changed suddenly, pictures

may be blurred or show poor color over

portions of the picture. This is because

moisture has condensed on the glass or PDP

panel inside the Plasma TV. Let the moisture

evaporate before using the Plasma TV.

•To obtain a clear picture, do not expose the

screen to direct illumination or direct sunlight.

If possible, use spot lighting direct down from

the ceiling.

On adjustment volume

• Adjust the volume so as not to trouble

neighbours. Sound carries very easily at night

time. Therefore, closing the windows or using

headphones is suggested.

• When using headphones, adjust the volume

so as to avoid excessive levels, as hearing

damage may result.
