Precautions - Sony WEGA KLV-30MR1 Operating Instructions Manual

Precautions

On viewing the TV comfortably
• To view the TV comfortably, the recommended viewing position is from four to seven times of the
screen's vertical length away from the TV set.
• View the TV in a moderate light room, as viewing the TV in poor light taxes your eyes. Watching the
screen continuously for long periods of time can also tax your eyes.
On installing the TV set
Installing the display unit
Use the specified wall-mount bracket or stands.
Installing the media receiver unit
Leave enough space for ventilation between the exhaust fan in the rear of unit and the wall.
• Do not install the display unit in places subject to extreme temperature, for example in direct sunlight,
or near a radiator, or heating vent. If the unit is exposed to extreme temperature, the unit may heat up
and it may cause deformations of the casing or cause the unit to malfunction.
• After transporting the display unit directly from a cold to a warm location, or if the room temperature
has changed suddenly, pictures may be blurred or show poor colour over portions of the picture. This
is because moisture has condensed on the mirrors or lenses inside the unit. In this case let the moisture
evaporate before using the unit.
• To obtain a clear picture, do not expose the screen to direct illumination or direct sunlight. If possible,
use spot lighting directed down from the ceiling.
• The TV set is not disconnected from the mains when the switch is in Off position. To disconnect the
set completely, pull the plug from the mains.
On volume adjustment
• Adjust the volume so as not to trouble neighbours. Sound carries very easily at night time. Therefore,
closing the windows or using headphones is suggested.
• When using headphones, adjust the volume so as to avoid excessive levels, as hearing damage may
result.
On image
With extensive use of this TV set in 4:3 mode, the 4:3 screen area might become darker within a 16:9
panel. To avoid this problem, the "Smart" picture mode should be used.
On handling the remote control
• Handle the remote control with care. Do not drop or step on it, or spill liquid of any kind onto it.
• Do not place the remote control in a location near a heat source, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
or in a damp room.
On handling and cleaning the screen surface of the display unit
To avoid screen degradation, follow the points mentioned below. Do not push on or scratch with hard
objects, or throw anything at the screen. The screen may be damaged.
• Be sure to unplug the mains lead connected to the media receiver unit from the mains before cleaning.
• Do not touch the display panel after operating continuously for a long period as the display panel
becomes hot.
• We recommend that the screen surface is touched as little as possible.
• Clean the screen with a soft cloth.
• Never use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent, such as alcohol or benzine. This type
of contact may result in damage to the screen surface.
