Handling and Placement Warnings:

• Fragile Screen: TV screens are fragile. Do not apply force to the screen surface. Keep protective film in place until installation is complete.
• Lifting: Two or more people are required to move large TVs. Ensure correct hand placement for safety.
• Stability: Always use furniture that can safely support the TV. Ensure the TV is not overhanging the edge of furniture. Secure the TV to a wall and/or stand to prevent toppling, which can cause serious injury or death. Never place the TV on unstable or uneven surfaces.
• Children: Educate children about the dangers of climbing on furniture. Never allow children to climb on or play with the TV or furniture. Keep small accessories out of children's reach.
• Cords: Route cords and cables so they cannot be tripped over, pulled, or grabbed.
• Environment: Do not expose the TV to rain or moisture. Avoid hot, humid, dusty, or smoky environments. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources. Sudden temperature changes can cause moisture condensation.
• Liquids: Do not place liquid-filled objects on the TV.
• Magnets: Keep magnetically sensitive objects away from the TV, especially near the speaker unit.
• Medical Devices: This product contains magnets that may interfere with pacemakers or other medical devices. Consult a doctor before use if you use such devices.
• Vehicles/Ships: Do not install the TV in a vehicle, ship, or other vessel due to motion and environmental risks.

Electrical Safety:

• Operate the TV only on the specified voltage (110 V – 240 V AC or 120 V AC for US/Canada).
• Use only the supplied AC adapter and power cord.
• Ensure the AC power outlet is easily accessible.
• Do not touch the AC adapter or power cord with wet hands.
• Disconnect the AC power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord.
• If the AC adapter becomes warm, this is normal.

Prohibited Usage: Do not install or use the TV in locations or situations that may cause malfunction, fire, electric shock, or injury, such as outdoors, near water, in excessively hot/humid/dusty places, or where exposed to mechanical vibration or naked flames.

Setup Guide

Follow these steps for initial setup:

1. Prepare the TV: Unpack the TV and identify all components.
2. Attach Stand or Wall Mount:
   • Table-Top Stand: If not wall-mounting, attach the table-top stand using the provided screws. Ensure it is securely fastened.
   • Wall Mount: For wall mounting, use a recommended Sony wall-mount bracket (e.g., SU-WL855). Ensure the wall can support the TV's weight. Follow the specific instructions provided with the wall-mount bracket. Two people are recommended for wall mounting.
3. Connect Cables: Connect power, antenna/cable, HDMI, USB, and other necessary cables to the appropriate ports on the TV.
4. Initial Power On: Plug in the power cord and turn on the TV using the power button on the remote control or the TV itself.
5. On-Screen Setup: Follow the on-screen prompts to select language, connect to the internet, scan for channels, and configure settings.

Using Your BRAVIA TV

Remote Control: Familiarize yourself with the remote control layout and button functions (Power, Volume, Channel, Input, Menu, Google Assistant, etc.).

Screen Care:

• General: Clean the screen gently with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn stains, use a slightly moistened cloth with mild soap and water. Do not spray liquids directly onto the screen.
• LCD/OLED Specifics:
• Black dots or bright points on the screen are normal structural properties and not malfunctions.
• Avoid exposing the screen to direct sunlight.
• Do not push or scratch the screen.
• Image retention (burn-in) can occur with static images displayed for long periods. To reduce risk, use features like 'Panel Refresh' or 'Pixel Shift' and avoid displaying static images with bright colors or logos for extended durations.

Ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation around the TV by leaving sufficient space (refer to diagrams for specific measurements) to prevent overheating.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues such as a black screen, no sound, or unresponsiveness:

• Restart the TV by holding the power button for five seconds, or unplug the power cord for two minutes and plug it back in.
• Check the on-screen Help Guide for specific solutions.
• Ensure your TV software is up to date by connecting to the internet.
• Perform a factory data reset if necessary (note: this will erase all custom settings).
• If the remote control is not functioning, replace the batteries.
