PrecautionsOn viewing the Plasma TVcomfortably• To view the Plasma TV comfortably, the
recommended viewing position is from fourto seven times of the screen’s vertical lengthaway from the Plasma TV.
• View the Plasma TV in a moderate light room,as viewing the Plasma TV in poor light taxesyour 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 betweenthe exhaust fan in the rear of unit and thewall.
• Do not install the Plasma TV in places subjectto extreme temperature, for example in directsunlight, or near a radiator, or heating vent. Ifthe Plasma TV is exposed to extremetemperature, the Plasma TV may heat up andit may cause deformations of the casing ormalfunctions.
• Do not install the Plasma TV in a placeexposed to direct air conditioning. If thePlasma TV is installed in such a location,moisture may condense on the glass or PDPpanel inside the Plasma TV. It may cause amalfunction.
• After transporting the Plasma TV directlyfrom a cold to a warm location, or if the roomtemperature has changed suddenly, picturesmay be blurred or show poor color overportions of the picture. This is becausemoisture has condensed on the glass or PDPpanel inside the Plasma TV. Let the moistureevaporate before using the Plasma TV.
• To obtain a clear picture, do not expose thescreen to direct illumination or direct sunlight.If possible, use spot lighting direct down fromthe ceiling.
On adjustment volume• Adjust the volume so as not to trouble
neighbours. Sound carries very easily at nighttime. Therefore, closing the windows or usingheadphones is suggested.
• When using headphones, adjust the volumeso as to avoid excessive levels, as hearingdamage may result.
6
On image retention• If the following images are displayed for an
extended period time, image retention(afterimage) in areas of the screen may resultdue to the characteristics of the PlasmaDisplay Panel.– Black bars at the top and bottom that
appear with a wide video source (Letterboxpicture).
– Black bars to the left and right that appearwith a 4:3 video source (conventional TVbroadcasts).
– Video game sources– PC images– DVD on-screen menu displays– On-screen menus, channel numbers, etc., of
connected equipment such as Set top box,Cable modem, VCR, etc.
The risk of this is higher if the set is in“Dynamic” mode or has a high contrastsetting. This image cannot be removed onceburnt onto the screen. To avoid the risk ofoccurrence do not leave the TV set operatingon such a picture, or program for a long time,use the “Screen Saver” function or lower thecontrast setting. Repeated extended dailyusage of the same image, or program can alsoresult in this occurrence. IMAGE RETEN-TION IS NOT COVERED BY THE SONYWARRANTY.
• To reduce image retention, this Plasma TV hasthe “Screen Saver” function. The defaultsetting of the “Orbit” function in “ScreenSaver” is “On”.
On the PDP (Plasma Display Panel)Please note that the PDP screen is made withhigh-precision technology. However, blackpoints or bright points of light (red, blue, orgreen) may appear constantly on the PDP screen,and irregular colored stripes or brightness mayappear on the PDP screen. This is not amalfunction.
On handling the remote control• Handle the remote control with care. Do not
drop or step on it, or spill liquid of any kind.• Do not place the remote control in a location
near heat source, or in a place subject to directsunlight, or in a damp room.

On cleaning the cabinet• Be sure to unplug the AC power cord
connected to the Plasma TV from the ACpower outlet before cleaning.
• Clean the cabinet with the supplied cleaningcloth or a soft cloth lightly moistened with amild detergent solution.
• Note that material deterioration or screencoating degradation may occur if the PlasmaTV is exposed to a volatile solvent, such asalcohol, thinner, benzine or insecticide, or ifprolonged contact is maintained with rubberor vinyl materials.
