instructions in the literature
accompanying the TV.
The TV shall not be exposed to dripping or
splashing and no objects filled with liquids,

NOTIFICATION
This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio
communications.
However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:
s Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
s Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.
s Connect the equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
s Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/
TV technician for help.
Safety
s Operate the TV only on 120 - 240 V AC.
s Use the AC power cord specified by Sony
and suitable for the voltage where you use
it.
s The plug is designed, for safety purposes,
to fit into the wall outlet only one way. If
you are unable to insert the plug fully into
the outlet, contact your dealer.
s If any liquid or solid object should fall
inside the cabinet, unplug the TV
immediately and have it checked by
qualified service personnel before
operating it further.
s If you will not be using the TV for several
days, disconnect the power by pulling the
plug itself. Never pull on the cord.
s For details concerning safety precautions,
see Important Safety Instructions on
page 4.
Installing
s The TV should be installed near an easily
accessible power outlet.
s To prevent internal heat buildup, do not
block the ventilation openings.
s Do not install the TV in a hot or humid
place, or in a place subject to excessive
dust or mechanical vibration.
s Avoid operating the TV at temperatures
below 41°F (5°C).
s If the TV is transported directly from a cold
to a warm location, or if the room
temperature changes suddenly, the picture
may be blurred or show poor color due to
moisture condensation. In this case, please
wait a few hours to let the moisture
evaporate before turning on the TV.
s To obtain the best picture, do not expose
the screen to direct illumination or direct
sunlight. It is recommended to use spot
lighting directed down from the ceiling or
to cover the windows that face the screen
with opaque drapery. It is desirable to
install the TV in a room where the floor and
walls are not of a reflective material.
CAUTION
Use the following Sony TVs only with the
following WALL-MOUNT BRACKET or
TV-stand.
Use with other WALL-MOUNT BRACKET
or TV-stand may cause instability and possibly
result in injury.
To Customers
Sufficient expertise is required for installing
the specified TV. Be sure to subcontract the
installation to Sony dealers or licensed
contractors and pay adequate attention to
safety during the installation.

This television includes a QAM demodulator
which should allow you to receive
