Safety information

Mains lead

• Observe the followings 

to prevent the mains 

lead being damaged.

If the mains lead is 

damaged, it may result 

in a fire or an electric 

shock.

– When you disconnect the mains 

lead, disconnect it from the 

mains socket first.

– Be sure to grasp the plug when 

disconnecting the mains lead. 

Do not pull on the mains lead 

itself.

– Do not pinch, bend, or twist the 

mains lead excessively. The core 

conductors may be exposed or 

broken.

– Do not modify the mains lead.

– Do not put anything heavy on the mains lead.

– Keep the mains lead away from heat sources.

• If you damage the mains lead, stop using it and ask your 

dealer or Sony service centre to exchange it.

• Do not use the supplied mains lead on any other 

equipment.

• Use only an original Sony mains lead, not other brands. 

Mains socket

Do not use a poor fitting mains socket. Insert 

the plug fully into the mains socket. A poor 

fit may cause arcing and result in a fire. 

Contact your electrician to have the mains 

socket changed.

Cleaning the mains plug

Unplug the mains plug and clean it 

regularly. If the plug is covered with dust 

and it picks up moisture, its insulation 

may deteriorate and result in a fire. 

Overloading

This TV set is designed to operate 

on a 220–240 V AC supply only. 

Take care not to connect too many 

appliances to the same mains 

socket as this could result in fire or 

electric shock.

When not in use

• If you will not be using the TV 

set for several days, the TV set 

should be disconnected from 

the mains for environmental 

and safety reasons.  

• The TV set is not disconnected from the mains when the 

TV set is switched off.  To disconnect the TV set 

completely, pull the plug from the mains. However, some 

TV sets may have features which need the TV set to be left 

in standby to work correctly. The instructions in this 

manual will inform you if this applies.

Carrying

• Before carrying the TV set, disconnect all the cables from 

the TV set.

• When you carry the TV set by 

hand, hold the TV set as illustrated 

on the right. When lifting the TV 

set or moving the panel of the TV 

set, hold it firmly from the bottom. 

If you do not do so, the TV set may 

fall and be damaged or cause 

serious injury. 

• When transporting it, do not 

subject the TV set to jolts or 

excessive vibration. The TV set 

may fall and be damaged or cause 

serious injury.

• If the TV set has been dropped or 

damaged, have it checked 

immediately by  qualified service personnel.

• When you carry the TV set in for repair or when you move 

it, pack it using the original carton and packing material.

Placement

• The TV set should be installed near an easily accessible 

mains socket.

• Place the TV set on a stable, level 

surface. Do not hang anything on the 

TV set. If you do, the TV set may fall 

from the stand, causing damage or 

serious injury.

• Do not install the TV set in places 

subject to extreme temperature, for example in direct 

sunlight, or near a radiator, or heating vent. If the TV set 

is exposed to extreme temperature, the TV set may 

overheat and cause deformation of the casing or cause the 

TV set to malfunction.

• Do not install the TV set in a place exposed to direct air 

conditioning. If the TV set is installed in such a location, 

moisture may condense inside and may  cause a 

malfunction.

• Never place the TV set in hot, oily, 

humid or excessively dusty places. 

• Do not install the TV set where 

insects may enter. 

• Do not install the TV set where it 

may be exposed to mechanical vibration.

• Do not install the TV set in a location where it may 

protrude, such as on or behind a pillar, or where you might 

bump your head on it. Otherwise, it may result in injury.

• Do not allow children to climb on 

the TV set.

• If you use the TV set near the 

seashore, salt may corrode metal 

parts of the TV set and cause 

internal damage or fire.
