Compatible Wall-Mount Bracket
Information
Use the following Sony Wall-Mount Bracket with your TV
model.
Use with other Wall-Mount Brackets*2may cause instability
and could result in property damage or injury.
*1 Only on limited region/country/TV model.
*2 For instructions on using the Wall-Mount bracket with

To Customers
Sufficient expertise is required for TV installations. Be sure
to subcontract the installation to a Sony dealer or licensed
contractor and pay adequate attention to safety during the
installation.
Before setting up your TV
Some TV models are packaged with a detached Table-Top
Stand so you can mount your TV to a wall right away. See
“Installing the TV to the Wall” if you want to mount the TV
to a wall. If you are not mounting the TV to a wall, you will
need to attach the Table-Top Stand (refer to the Setup
Guide).
Be sure to consider the following while setting up your TV:
• Disconnect all cables when carrying the TV.
• Before transporting the TV set, remove the stand cover
and terminal covers.
• Carry the TV with the adequate number of people; larger
size TVs require two or more people.
• Correct hand placement while carrying the TV is very
important for safety and to avoid damage.
• Ensure your TV has adequate ventilation, refer to the
safety documentation.
• For best picture quality, do not expose the screen to direct
illumination or sunlight.
• Avoid installing the TV in a room with reflective wall and
floor materials.
• 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 color. Should this occur, allow
moisture to evaporate completely before powering the TV
on.
Pursuant to FCC regulations, you are cautioned that any
changes or modifications not expressly approved in this
manual could void your authority to operate this
equipment.

Securing the TV
Preventing the TV from Toppling
• Secure the TV to a wall and/or Stand.
• Do not allow children to play or climb on furniture and TV
sets.
• Avoid placing or hanging items on the TV.
• Never install the TV on:
slippery, unstable and/or uneven surfaces.
furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a
chest of drawers.
• Install the TV where it cannot be pulled, pushed, or
knocked over.
• Install the TV so that the TV’s Table-Top Stand does not
protrude out from the Stand (not supplied). If the
Table-Top Stand protrudes out from the Stand, it may
cause TV set to topple over, fall down, and cause personal
injury or damage to the TV.
• Route all AC power cords and connecting cables so that
they are not accessible to curious children.
Recommended Measures to Secure the
TV
Consider the following measures when securing your TV to
a Stand (not supplied).
1Secure the Stand for the TV.
Make sure the Stand can adequately support the weight
of the TV. Use two angle braces (not supplied) to secure
the Stand. For each angle brace use the appropriate
hardware to:
• Attach one side of the angle brace to the wall stud.
• Attach the other side to the Stand.
2Secure the TV to the Stand.
Use the optional hardware listed as follows (not
supplied):
• M4 machine screw (screwed into the TV’s stand base).
• A screw or similar (attach it to the Stand).
• Rope or chain (strong enough to support the weight of
the TV). Make sure that there is no excess slack in the
rope or chain.
The length of the M4 machine screw differs depending
on the rope or chain diameter. Please refer to below
illustration.
3Anchor the TV to the wall by using bolts, wall anchor and
chain (or rope).
Sony strongly recommends taking
measures to prevent the TV from
toppling over.
Unsecured TVs may topple and result in
property damage, serious bodily injury
or even death.

TV depending on the TV model. (They are fastened in the
screw holes for wall mounting.) Be sure to remove the
upper two screws prior to anchoring the TV to a wall.
• Securing the TV to the Stand without securing the TV and
the Stand to the wall provides minimum protection
against the TV toppling over. For further protection, be
sure to follow the three measures recommended.

Precautions to Protect the Screen from
Damage
Image retention
OLED TV’s are susceptible to image retention (burn-in) due
to the characteristics of the materials used. Image retention
may occur if images are displayed in the same location on
the screen repeatedly or over extended periods of time.
This is not a malfunction of the TV. Avoid displaying images
that may cause image retention.
The following are examples of images that
may cause image retention:
• Content with black bars either on the top and bottom
and/or the left and right sides of the screen. (for example,
Letterboxed, 4:3 screen, Standard definition)
• Static images such as photos.
• Video games that might have static content in some part
of the screen.
• On-screen menus, program guides, channel logos etc.
• Static content from applications.
• On-screen tickers, such as those used for news and
headlines.
To reduce the risk of image retention:
• Sony recommends that you turn off the TV normally by
pressing the power button on the remote control or the
TV.
• Fill the screen by changing [Wide mode] to eliminate the
black bars. Select [Wide mode] other than [Normal].
• Turn off the OSD (On Screen Display) by pressing the
DISPLAY button, and turn off the menus from connected
equipment. For details, refer to the instruction manuals
for the connected equipment.
• Avoid displaying static images with bright colors
(including white), clocks or logos on any portion of the
screen.
• Set the picture settings based on the ambient conditions.
The Standard Picture is recommended for home use and
when viewing content that often displays the station
logos, etc.
The TV has following features to help reduce/prevent
image retention.
Panel refresh
A panel refresh will adjust the panel uniformity. Panel
refresh can be performed and should only be used when
image retention is very noticeable.
Caution:
• The Panel refresh function may affect the panel. Do not
perform Panel refresh more than once a year as it may
affect the usable life of the panel.
• Panel refresh takes about one hour to complete.
• A white line may be displayed on the screen during the
Panel refresh, this is not a malfunction of the TV.
• Panel refresh will only work when the room temperature
is between 50 ºF and 104 ºF (10 ºC and 40 ºC).
Pixel shift
Automatically moves the image on the screen to prevent
image retention.
Other feature
The screen brightness is automatically reduced when
displaying still images, clocks, bright colors or logos etc.
Remote Control and TV
The remote control shape, location,
availability and function of remote
control buttons may vary depending on
your region/country/TV model.
