Handling the LCD screen
s Do not leave the LCD screen facing the sun as it can damage the LCD
screen. Take care when you place the TV by a window.
s Do not push on or scratch the LCD screen. Do not place a heavy object
on the LCD screen. This may cause the screen to lose uniformity or
cause LCD panel malfunctions.
s If the TV is used in a cold place, a smear may appear on the screen.
This is not a malfunction. The screen returns to normal as the
temperature rises to a normal operating level.
s If a still picture is displayed for a long time, a ghosting may occur for a
while. The ghosting will eventually disappear.
s The LCD panel becomes warm during operation. This is not a
malfunction.

Please note that the LCD screen is made with high-precision technology.
However, black points or bright points of light (red, blue, or green) may
appear constantly on the LCD screen, and irregular colored stripes or
brightness may appear on the LCD screen. This is not a malfunction.
(Effective dots: more than 99.99%)
Handling of Broken Glass and Liquid Crystal Leakage
If the LCD panel gets damaged, crystalline liquid leakage may occur, or
scattered broken glass may result. Do not touch broken glass or crystalline
liquid (which is toxic), with bare hands as cuts or poisoning/skin irritation
may occur. Also, do not let glass fragments or leaked crystalline liquid get
into your eyes or mouth. Should either contact your eyes or mouth, rinse
the contacted area thoroughly with water and consult your doctor.
Fluorescent Lamp
This TV uses a special fluorescent lamp as its light source. If the screen
image becomes dark, flickers or does not appear, the fluorescent lamp has
run down and should be replaced. For replacement, consult qualified
service personnel.

Note
It is strongly recommended to connect the antenna using a 75-
ohm coaxial cable to get optimum picture quality. A 300-ohm
twin lead cable can be easily affected by radio noise and the like,
resulting in signal deterioration. If you use a 300-ohm twin lead
cable, keep it away as far as possible from the TV.
Cable box connections
Use this hookup if:
•You subscribe to a cable TV system that uses
scrambled or encoded signals requiring a cable
box to view all channels, and
•You do not intend to hook up any other audio or
video equipment to your TV.
1 Connect the coaxial connector from your cable
service to the cable box’s IN jack.
2 Using the supplied 75-ohm coaxial cable,
connect the cable box’s OUT jack to the TV’s
VHF/UHF jack.
Also, set “Cable” to “On” in the
(Channel)
menu (See page 21).
Tips
• Your Sony remote control can be programmed to operate your
cable box (See “Programming the remote control” on page
34).
• To change channels using the cable box, set your TV to
channel 3 or 4 depending on the cable box channel output.
• If you will be controlling all channel selection through your
cable box, consider using the Channel Fix feature to set your
TV to channel 3 or 4 (See page 22).

“Memory Stick”
About the “Memory
Stick”
What is a “Memory Stick”?
A “Memory Stick” is a compact, portable and
versatile Integrated Circuit recording medium with a
data storage capacity that exceeds that of a floppy
disk. A “Memory Stick” is specially designed for
exchanging and sharing digital data among “Memory
Stick” compatible products. Because it is removable,
the “Memory Stick “ can also be used for external
data storage.
“Memory Stick” media are available in two sizes: a
standard size and a compact “Memory Stick Duo”
size. Once attached to a Memory Stick Duo adapter,
the “Memory Stick Duo” is physically the same size
as a standard “Memory Stick” and thus can be used
with products compliant with the standard “Memory
Stick .”
Tip
The “Memory Stick” feature allows you to view
digital images that are stored on “Memory Stick”
media on your TV screen.
Picture viewer
This TV’s “Memory Stick” picture viewer can
display digital photo (JPEG) and movie (MPEG1)
files stored on a “Memory Stick.” You can also run a
slideshow of those images, and customize the
features of the slideshow by selecting automatic or
manual slideshow.
Digital Camera Mode
This TV’s Digital Camera Mode can display only
images using the JPEG or MPEG1 formats, recorded
on a DCF-compliant digital camera.
Supported image types
Recorded images must meet the following
specifications:
•Digital photos (JPEG files): JPEG* compression
format and DCF** compliant folder and file
names.
•Movies (MPEG1 files) must be recorded on a
Sony digital camera and use one of the following
MPEG1*** compression formats:
MPEG MOVIE, MPEG MOVIE AD, MPEG
MOVIE EX, MPEG MOVIE HQ, MPEG MOVIE
CV, MPEG MOVIE HQX, MPEG1
(corresponding to VIDEO CD) for VAIO Giga
Pocket
* JPEG is a standard technology format for
compressing a still image (extension .jpg). JPEG
stands for “Joint Photographic Experts Group,”
which is the organization that implemented this
format.
** DCF stands for “Design rules for Camera File
systems,” which has specifications established
by the Japan Electronics and Information
Technology Industries Association (JEITA).
*** MPEG is a format for compressing a moving
image (extension .mpg).
Unsupported image types
•Digital photos stored in TIFF or any other non-
JPEG compression format
•Digital photos recorded using products that are not
DCF-compliant, including the following Sony
products
–Digital still cameras DSC-D700, DSC-D770

PD100A
• The following digital photos stored in JPEG
compression format
–Images that were processed on a PC
–Images in folders that were modified or renamed
on a PC
–Images stored in a “Memory Stick” that was
formatted on a PC
–Images less than 16 dots wide or high
–Images more than 4,096 dots wide or high
Notes on use
• We recommend that you back up important data on
the hard disk of your PC. Sony cannot be

Inserting a “Memory Stick”
Insert the “Memory Stick” into the “Memory Stick”
slot with the b mark facing forward as illustrated
below until it clicks. The “Memory Stick” access
lamp flashes, then goes out.
Notes
• Be sure to insert the “Memory Stick” correctly. If the
“Memory Stick” is forced in the wrong way, the “Memory
Stick” or the slot may be damaged.
• Insert only a “Memory Stick” into the “Memory Stick” slot.
Attempting to insert other objects into the slot may damage
the TV.
• To use a “Memory Stick Duo,” be sure to attach it to the
Memory Stick Duo adapter before inserting it into the
“Memory Stick” slot. Inserting a Memory Stick Duo adapter
without a “Memory Stick Duo” may damage the “Memory

off, then push the “Memory Stick” gently into
the “Memory Stick” slot and then release it.
The “Memory Stick” is ejected.
Tip
The (“Memory Stick”) indicator on the front panel of
the TV works in the same manner as the “Memory Stick”

Notes
• Do not turn the power off while the “Memory Stick” access
lamp is lit or flashing in red.
If you do so, the image data in “Memory Stick” may be
damaged.
• When removing the “Memory Stick,” do not attempt to just
pull it from the “Memory Stick” slot. If you do so, the
“Memory Stick” or the slot may be damaged.
• There is mechanism inside the “Memory Stick” slot to prevent
the “Memory Stick” from popping out. This may prevent the

do not pull the “Memory Stick” out forcibly. Pull it out
straight towards you. Otherwise, the “Memory Stick” may be
damaged.
