Important Safeguards
For your protection, please read these instructions completely, and
keep this manual for future reference.
Carefully observe and comply with all warnings, cautions and
instructions placed on the set or described in the operating
instructions or service manual.
WARNING
To guard against injury, the following basic safety precautions
should be observed in the installation, use and servicing of the set.
Use
Power Sources
This set should be operated only from the type
of power source indicated on the serial/model
plate. If you are not sure of the type of electrical
power supplied to your home, consult your
dealer or local power company. For those sets
designed to operate from battery power, refer
to the operating instructions.
Grounding or Polarization
This set is equipped with a polarized AC power cord plug (a plug
having one blade wider than the other), or with a three-wire
grounding type plug (a plug having a third pin for grounding).
Follow the instructions below:
For the set with a polarized AC power cord plug
This plug will fit into the power outlet only one
way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to
insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing
the plug. If the plug still fails to fit, contact your electrician to have
a suitable outlet installed. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
polarized plug by forcing it in.
Alternate Warning
For the set with a three-wire grounding type AC plug
This plug will only fit into a grounding-type
power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact
your electrician to have a suitable outlet installed.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding plug.
Overloading
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or
convenience receptacles beyond their capacity,
since this can result in fire or electric shock.
Always turn the set off when it is not being
used. When the set is left unattended and
unused for long periods of time, unplug it
from the wall outlet as a precaution against
the possibility of an internal malfunction that
could create a fire hazard.
If a snapping or popping sound from a TV set is
continuous or frequent while the TV is operating,
unplug the TV and consult your dealer or service
technician. It is normal for some TV sets to make
occasional snapping or popping sounds,
particularly when being turned on or off.
Object and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind into the set
through the cabinet slots as they may touch
dangerous voltage points or short out parts that
could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill
liquid of any kind on the set.
Cleaning
Unplug the set from the wall outlet before
cleaning or polishing it. Do not use liquid
cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a cloth lightly
dampened with water for cleaning the exterior
of the set.
Installation
Attachments
Do not use attachments not recommended by the
manufacturer, as they may cause hazards.
Water and Moisture
Do not use power-line operated sets near
water — for example, near a bathtub,
washbowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a
wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc.
Accessories
Do not place the set on an unstable cart, stand,
table or shelf. The set may fall, causing serious
injury to a child or an adult and serious damage
to the set. Use only a cart or stand recommended
by Sony for the specific model of TV. No part of
the TV set should overhang any edge of the TV
cart or stand; any overhanging edge is a safety
hazard. An appliance and cart combination
should be moved with care. Quick stops,
excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause
the appliance and cart combination to overturn.
Ventilation
The slots and openings in the cabinet and in the back or bottom are
provided for necessary ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of
the set, and to protect it from overheating, these slots and openings
must never be blocked or covered.
❑ Never cover the slots and openings with a
cloth or other materials.
❑ Never block the slots and openings by
placing the set on a bed, sofa, rug or other
similar surface.
❑ Never place the set in a confined space, such
as a bookcase or built-in cabinet, unless
proper ventilation is provided.
❑ Do not place the set near or over a radiator
or heat register, or where it is exposed to
direct sunlight.
Power-Cord Protection
Do not allow anything to rest on or roll over the
power cord, and do not place the set where the
power cord is subject to wear or abuse.
Antennas
Outdoor Antenna Grounding
If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the precautions below. An
outdoor antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or
where it can come in contact with such power lines or circuits.
WHEN INSTALLING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA SYSTEM,
EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO KEEP FROM
CONTACTING SUCH POWER LINES OR CIRCUITS AS
CONTACT WITH THEM IS ALMOST INVARIABLY FATAL.
Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some
protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) in USA and
Section 54 of the Canadian Electrical Code in Canada provides
information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna
discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna
discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.
Antenna Grounding According to the NEC
Refer to section 54-300 of Canadian Electrical Code for Antenna
Grounding.
Lightning
For added protection for this television receiver during a lightning
storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of
time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna.
This will prevent damage to the receiver due to lightning and
power-line surges.
Service
Damage Requiring Service
Unplug the set from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified
service personnel under the following conditions:
❑ When the power cord or plug
is damaged or frayed.
❑ If liquid has been spilled into
the set.
❑ If the set has been exposed to
rain or water.
❑ If the set has been subject to
excessive shock by being
dropped, or the cabinet has
been damaged.
❑ If the set does not operate
normally when following the
operating instructions. Adjust
only those controls that are
specified in the operating
instructions. Improper
adjustment of other controls
may result in damage and
will often require extensive
work by a qualified technician
to restore the set to normal operation.
❑ When the set exhibits a distinct change in performance, it
indicates a need for service.
Servicing
Do not attempt to service the set yourself since
opening the cabinet may expose you to dangerous
voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to
qualified service personnel.
Replacement Parts
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service
technician certifies in writing that he has used replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as
the original parts.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or
other hazards.
Safety Check
Upon completion of any service or repairs to the
set, ask the service technician to perform routine
safety checks (as specified by the manufacturer) to
determine that the set is in safe operating
condition, and to so certify. When the set reaches
the end of its useful life, improper disposal could
result in a picture tube implosion. Ask a qualified
service technician to dispose of the set.

Presenting the FD Trinitron
Wega
The FD Trinitron Wega (pronounced VAY-GAH) is characterized by
outstanding contrast, uncompromising accuracy, and corner-to-
corner detail.
You’ll recognize the superiority of Wega technology almost
immediately. The first thing you’ll notice is minimal glare from the
flat picture tube. This flat-screen technology improves picture detail
without distortion, unlike conventional curved screens. The FD
Trinitron delivers outstanding image detail not only at the screen
center, but also at the corners — so you can enjoy a bright, clear
picture from any location in a room.
Features Some of the features that you will enjoy with your new TV include:
❑ DRC Mode (Digital Reality Creation): Unlike conventional line
doublers, the DRC feature doubles vertical and horizontal lines,
resulting in four times the density for quality sources such as
DVD, Satellite and Digital camcorder.
❑ Cinemotion: Provides an optimized display by automatically
detecting film content and applying a reverse 3/2 pulldown
process. Moving pictures will appear clearer and more natural-
looking.
❑ Twin View
™
: Using Multi-Image Driver (MIDX), Twin View
allows you to watch two programs side by side, with the ability
to zoom in one picture. You can watch pictures from two different
sources simultaneously.
❑ 16:9 Enhancement: Vertical Compression technology that
maximizes picture resolution on “anamorphic” or “enhanced for
widescreen” sources, including selected DVDs.
❑ Velocity Modulation: Vertical line enhancement that sharpens
picture definition.
❑ Steady Sound: Equalizes volume levels so there is consistent
output between programs and commercials.
❑ Parental Control: V-Chip technology allows parents to block
unsuitable programming for younger viewers.
❑ Component Video Inputs: Offers the best video quality for DVD
(480p, 480i), and Digital Set-top box (HD1080i) connections.
❑ S VIDEO Inputs: Provides a high-quality video signal from
connected equipment.
❑ Favorite Channel Preview: Preview up to eight favorite channels
without leaving the current channel.

Cable Box
Connections
Cable Box and Cable
This is the preferred basic cable TV hookup to use if your cable TV
company scrambles some channels, but not all of them (pay channels
vs. regular cable channels), so you need to use a cable box.
With this setup you can:
❑ Use the TV remote control to change channels using your cable
box when the signal is scrambled.
❑ Use the TV remote control to change channels using your TV
when the signal is not scrambled. (Your TV’s tuner provides a
better signal than the cable box.)
❑ Use the Twin View feature. (When all channels are routed
through your cable box, only one signal is sent to the TV, so you
can not use the Twin View feature.)
❑ Use the Twin View feature normally with the CATV input.
❑ Use the Twin View feature partially with the cable box. (When
you switch the TV input to AUX - to use the cable box - the
unscrambled picture from the cable box will display. You can
display the signal from both AUX and VHF/UHF inputs in the
left Twin View picture, but you can display only the signal from
the VHF/UHF input in the right Twin View picture.

To set up your TV to use both a Cable Box and a direct-connect CATV cable:
1 Connect the Cable TV cable to the TV’s VHF/UHF jack.
2 Using a coaxial cable, connect the TV’s TO CONVERTER jack to
the cable box’s IN jack. The TV’s internal converter allows you to
switch between unscrambled signals coming straight into the TV
and scrambled signals coming in through the cable box,
eliminating the need for an external splitter.
3 Using a coaxial cable, connect the cable box’s OUT jack to the
TV’s AUX jack.
To switch between channels from Cable Box and channels coming directly into TV
❑
Press the ANT button on the TV remote control.
To use the TV remote control to switch channels on the cable box
❑
Program the remote control as necessary. (See “Programming the
Remote Control” on page 50.)
To use the cable box
❑
Have your TV tuner set to channel 3 or 4 (as appropriate) and
then use the Cable Box to change channels.
To prevent the accidental switching of TV channels
❑
When using the VCR or Cable Box, you can use the Channel Fix
feature to lock in a channel. The Channel Fix feature is under the
Channel menu. (See “Using the Channel Menu” on page 40.)

Cable Box Only
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.
When all channels are routed through your cable box, only one
unscrambled signal is sent to the TV, so you cannot use the Twin
View feature. If some channels are scrambled, but others are not,
consider using the hookup on page 12 instead.
1 Connect the coaxial connector from your cable service to the
cable box’s IN jack.
2 Using a coaxial cable, connect the cable box’s OUT jack to the
TV’s VHF/UHF jack.
To use the cable box
❑
Have the TV tuner set to channel 3 or 4 (as appropriate) and then
use the cable box to change channels.
To use the TV remote control to switch channels on the cable box
❑

Use this hookup if you have cable TV that does not require a cable
box.
1 Connect the cable TV cable to the VCR’s IN jack.
2 Using a coaxial cable, connect the VCR’s OUT jack to the TV’s
VHF/UHF jack.
3 Using an A/V cable, connect the VCR’s Audio and Video OUT
jacks to the TV’s Audio and Video IN jacks.
✍ If the VCR you are connecting has an S VIDEO jack, you can use an S VIDEO
cable for improved picture quality (compared to a combination audio/video
cable). Because an S VIDEO cable carries only the video signal, you will need
audio cables for sound.

Connecting a VCR and Cable Box
Use this hookup if:
❑ Your cable TV company scrambles some channels, but not all of
them (pay channels vs. regular cable channels), so you need to
use a cable box, and
❑ You want to use the Twin View feature.
With this setup you can:
❑ Use the TV remote control to change channels using your cable
box when the signal is scrambled.
❑ Use the TV remote control to change channels using your TV
when the signal is not scrambled. (Your TV’s tuner provides a
better signal than the cable box.)
❑ Use the Twin View feature.
❑ Record both regular CATV and scrambled channels.
To connect a cable box and a VCR, you will need:
❑ A small, inexpensive device known as a splitter.
❑ Three coaxial cables.
❑ Either a combination audio/video cable, or an S VIDEO cable
and audio cables.
1 Connect the CATV cable to the single (input) jack of the splitter.
2 Use a coaxial cable to connect one of the two output jacks of the
splitter to the TV’s VHF/UHF jack.
3 Use a coaxial cable to connect the other output jack of the splitter
to the input jack of the cable box.
4 Use a coaxial cable to connect the output jack of the cable box to
the input jack of the VCR.
5 Use the video line (yellow) of a combination audio/video (A/V)
cable to connect the video output jack of the VCR to the video
input jack of the TV.
Connect the left (white) and right (red) audio output channels of
the VCR to the respective input channels on the TV.
✍ If your VCR has an S VIDEO jack, you can substitute an S VIDEO cable for
the video line of an A/V cable. The S VIDEO cable will provide improved
video signal quality. (You will need audio cables for sound.)

❑
If more than one code number is listed, try entering them one by
one until you come to the correct code for your equipment.
❑ If you enter a new code number, the code number you previously
entered at that setting is erased.
❑ In some cases, you may not be able to operate your equipment
with the Sony remote control. In such cases, use the equipment’s
own remote control unit.
❑ Whenever you remove the batteries to replace them, the code
numbers may revert to the factory setting and must be reset.
