AC power cord
Handle the AC power cord and outlet as
follows in order to avoid any risk of fire,
electrical shock or damage and/or injuries:
–
Use only Sony supplied AC power cords,
not those of other brands.
–
Insert the plug fully into the AC power
outlet.
–
Operate the TV set on a 110–240 V AC
supply only.
–
When wiring cables, be sure to unplug
the AC power cord for your safety and
take care not to catch your feet on the
cables.
–
Disconnect the AC power cord from the
AC power outlet before working on or
moving the TV set.
–
Keep the AC power cord away from heat
sources.
–
Unplug the AC power plug and clean it
regularly. If the plug is covered with dust
and it picks up moisture, its insulation
may deteriorate, which could result in a
fire.
Notes
• Do not use the supplied AC power cord on
any other equipment.
• Do not pinch, bend, or twist the AC power
cord excessively. The core conductors may
be exposed or broken.
• Do not modify the AC power cord.
• Do not put anything heavy on the AC
power cord.
• Do not pull on the AC power cord itself
when disconnecting the AC power cord.
• Do not connect too many appliances to the
same AC power outlet.
• Do not use a poor fitting AC power outlet.
Prohibited Usage
Do not install/use the TV set in locations,
environments or situations such as those
listed below, or the TV set may malfunction
and cause a fire, electrical shock, damage
and/or injuries.
Location:
• Outdoors (in direct sunlight), at the
seashore, on a ship or other vessel, inside a
vehicle, in medical institutions, unstable
locations, near water, rain, moisture or
smoke.
• If the TV is placed in the changing room
of a public bath or hot spring, the TV may
be damaged by airborne sulfur, etc.
• For best picture quality, do not expose the
screen to direct illumination or sunlight.
• Avoid moving the TV from a cold area to
a warm area. Sudden room temperature
changes may cause moisture
condensation. This may cause the TV to
show poor picture and/or poor colour.
Should this occur, allow moisture to
evaporate completely before powering the
TV on.
