3 Gently slide the TV unit onto the neck of the
Table-Top Stand and align the screw holes. Lift the TV by placing your palm directly underneath the panel but do not: squeeze the speaker grill area place your fingers in the groove above the speaker grill area put stress on the LCD panel.
Do not put stress on the LCD panel or the frame around the screen. Be careful to not pinch your hands or the AC power cord when you install the TV unit to the Table-Top Stand.
Do not lift the TV from the bottom center.
4 Use the supplied screws to attach the TV unit
to the Table-Top Stand. Shown here with a three screw model; other models may require screwing four screws (refer to the Attaching the Table-Top Stand flyer). If an electric screwdriver is used, set the torque to tighten at approximately 1.5 Nm, 15 Kgfcm.
Preparation for Wall-Mount Bracket
All models are ready to be mounted on a wall. Models KDL-52V4100 and KDL-52W4100 will require detaching the Table-Top stand. For product protection and safety reasons, Sony strongly recommends that you use the Wall-Mount Bracket model designed for your TV and the wall-mounting of your TV should be performed by a Sony dealer or licensed contractor. For bracket installation, refer to the supplied Installing the Wall-Mount Bracket and the instruction guide provided by the Wall-Mount Bracket model for your TV. Sufficient expertise is required in installing this TV, especially to determine the strength of the wall for withstanding the TVs weight. Be sure to use the screws supplied with the Wall-Mount Bracket when attaching the mounting hooks to the TV set. The supplied screws are designed so that they are 8 mm to 12 mm in length when measured from the attaching surface of the mounting hook. The diameter and length of the screws differ depending on the Wall-Mount Bracket model. Use of screws other than those supplied may result in internal damage to the TV set or cause it to fall, etc.

Cable System or VHF/UHF Antenna System
You can enjoy high-definition and standarddefinition digital programming (if available in your area) along with standard-definition analog programming.
HD Cable Box/HD Satellite Box
You can enjoy high-definition programming by subscribing to a high-definition cable service or a high-definition satellite service. For the best possible picture, make sure you connect this equipment to your TV via the HDMI or component video (with audio) input on the back of your TV. Shown with HDMI Connection
This TV is capable of receiving unscrambled digital programming for both cable (QAM and 8VSB) and external VHF/UHF antenna (ATSC). It is strongly recommended that you connect the CABLE/ANTENNA input using a 75-ohm coaxial cable to receive optimum picture quality. A 300-ohm twin lead cable can be easily affected by radio frequency interference, resulting in signal degradation.

Perform Auto Program to add receivable channels that are not present in the TVs memory (see pages 16 and 37). To receive or select cable channels, make sure that Signal Type in the Channel settings is set to Cable (see page 37). To receive or select UHF channels over an antenna, make sure Signal Type is set to Antenna. Check if Sleep Timer is activated, or confirm the Duration setting of Timer (see page 31).

Press HOME on the remote control. Select your desired input from the External Inputs list. Picture quality depends on the signal content. See Quick Setup Guide (supplied) to display the best possible picture for that signal. Content and signal quality are regulated by the signal provider. Many HD channels and content are actually upscaled versions of standard-definition broadcasts. The picture is affected by the quality of the signal received, which varies between channel and program. Confirm the picture quality by selecting Signal Diagnostics in the Product Support settings (page 31). Then select Sample Image (or Additional Information first). An HD image will display on the screen to confirm routine panel operation. If your normal picture quality is worse than this sample image, it is most likely due to the signal provided by the broadcaster. Check cable/antenna connections. Check the antenna location and direction. Check if the antenna is broken or bent. Check if the antenna has reached the end of its serviceable life. (3-5 years in normal use, 1-2 years at the seaside.) Keep the TV away from noise sources such as cars, motorcycles, or hair-dryers.

Only one A/V receiver may be used with the BRAVIA Sync and Control for HDMI functions at one time (see page 41). Confirm the PC is correctly connected to the TV with either the PC IN (with an HD15 cable) or with the HDMI IN. Ensure the output signal from the PC is one of the formats listed on page 14. Turn the PC off. Confirm the PC connection and restart the PC. Plug-and-play will auto-detect the TV and correctly set up PC timing. Verify PC Power Management is activated (see page 42). Verify the PC is not in standby or hibernation mode. Adjust the resolution (see page 14). Adjust Pitch and Phase. The current Wide Mode setting is automatically replaced with the 4:3 Default setting when you change the channel or video input, if 4:3 Default in the Screen settings is set to other than Off. If you want to lock in Wide Mode selected with WIDE on the remote control, set 4:3 Default to Off in the Screen settings (see page 35). Check the Auto Wide option in the Screen settings (see page 35). The picture gets smaller during the commercials due to the method in which the provider broadcasts their content. When HD content channels switch to SD content (commercials), the picture may be small with a black border. Auto Wide will not expand the picture during these content changes since the content information is regulated by the channel signal provider. You can manually change the Wide Mode if you prefer (see page 22). This setting will remain in effect until you change the channel or input or manually change the Wide Mode again.
