Precautions  
• If you display a still image for a long time, ghosting  
may occur. This will disappear as time passes.  
• The panel surface or the cabinet may warm up  
during use. This does not indicate a malfunction.  
Precautions  
On safety  
• A nameplate indicating operating voltage, power  
consumption, etc. is located on the rear of the unit.  
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet,  
unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified  
personnel before operating it any further.  
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be  
used for several days or more.  
• To disconnect the AC power cord, pull it out by  
grasping the plug. Never pull the cord itself.  
• When you install the unit on the floor, be sure to use  
the optional stand.  
On cleaning the display  
The panel surface  
• Be sure to unplug the power cord before cleaning the  
display.  
• The LCD panel surface has been given a special  
finish. Avoid touching the LCD screen. When  
cleaning the panel face, wipe off stains using a dry,  
soft cloth.  
• Never use rubbing alcohol, benzine or thinner for  
cleaning. They may damage the finish of the panel  
face.  
• When using a chemically treated cloth for cleaning,  
follow the directions.  
• Spraying the unit with volatile solvents (such as an  
insecticide,) or allowing the unit come into  
prolonged contact with rubber or plastic products  
may remove the coating or spoil the unit.  
On installation  
• Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal  
heat build-up. Do not place the unit on surfaces  
(rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains,  
draperies) that may block the ventilation holes.  
• Do not install the unit in a location near heat sources  
such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to  
direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration  
or shock.  
• When you install multiple equipment with the unit,  
the following problems, such as malfunction of the  
Remote Commander, noisy picture, noisy sound,  
may occur depending on the position of the unit and  
other equipment.  
The cabinet  
• Gently wipe off stains using a dry, soft cloth. Wipe  
off grimy stains using a cloth slightly moistened with  
a mild detergent, then wipe the area again using a  
dry, soft cloth.  
• Never use rubbing alcohol, benzine or thinner for  
cleaning. They may damage the finish of the cabinet  
or can remove the markings on it.  
On the LCD panel  
Notes on handling and cleaning the display  
panel  
The display panel’s special surface finish should be  
treated with care when cleaning or handling the TV.  
When cleaning it, use a soft cleaning cloth to avoid  
touching the panel directly.  
• You may see some bright spots of red, blue or green,  
or dark spots appearing on the screen. These do not  
indicate a malfunction. Although the LCD panel is  
manufactured with extremely high precision  
technology, it can generate a few dark or bright  
pixels.  
• Keeping the LCD panel facing toward the sun for a  
long time will damage the panel. Take this into  
account when you install the unit outdoor or by a  
window.  
• Do not push, scratch or put a heavy weight on the  
panel. These can cause irregularities in the screen or  
a malfunction of the LCD panel.  
• You may find the screen looks darker or an  
afterimage occurs when using the unit in a colder  
environment. These do not indicate a malfunction.  
The screen will return to normal operation as the  
temperature rises.  
On repacking  
Do not throw away the carton and packing materials.  
They make an ideal container in which to transport the  
unit. When shipping the unit, repack it as illustrated  
on the carton.  
If you have any questions on this unit, contact your  
authorized Sony dealers.
