Frequently Asked Questions - Bravia KDL-46W904A SONY

How do I connect external devices?

Use an HDMI cable to connect your Blu-ray player, gaming console, or streaming device to the HDMI inputs on the projector. For older devices, use the VGA or composite inputs.

What is the recommended screen size?

The projector can display from 40 to 300 inches diagonally. For optimal viewing, a screen size of 100 to 150 inches is recommended.

How do I clean the lens?

Use a soft, lint-free lens cloth. Gently wipe the lens in a circular motion. Do not use any liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.

How often should I replace the lamp?

The lamp has a life of approximately 4000 hours in standard mode and 6000 hours in eco mode. Replace it when the image becomes dim or the lamp indicator lights up.

Why is there no image on the screen?

Check that the projector is powered on and the lens cap is removed. Verify that the correct input source is selected. Ensure the connected device is turned on and outputting a signal.

Can I use the projector in a bright room?

The projector has 1500 lumens brightness, which is suitable for dark or dimly lit rooms. For best results, close curtains and reduce ambient light.

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.

- Never spray water or detergent directly on the TV set. It may drip to the bottom of the screen or exterior parts and enter the TV set, and may cause damage to the TV set.

Environment:

- Places that are hot, humid, or excessively dusty; where insects may enter; where it might be exposed to mechanical vibration, near flammable objects (candles, etc). The TV set shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the TV.

- Do not place the TV in a humid or dusty space, or in a room with oily smoke or steam (near cooking tables or humidifiers). Fire, electric shock, or warping may result.

- Do not install the TV in places subject to extreme temperature, such as in direct sunlight, near a radiator or a heating vent. The TV may overheat in such conditions which can cause deformation of the enclosure and/or TV malfunction.

Situation:

- Do not use when your hands are wet, with the cabinet removed, or with attachments not recommended by the manufacturer. Disconnect the TV set from AC power outlet (mains socket) and antenna during lightning storms.

- Do not install the TV so that it sticks out into an open space. Injury or damage from a person or object bumping into the TV may result.

Broken pieces:

• Do not throw anything at the TV set. The screen glass may break by the impact and cause serious injury.
• If the surface of the TV set cracks, do not touch it until you have unplugged the AC power cord (mains lead). Otherwise electric shock may result.

When not in use

• If you will not be using the TV set for several days, the TV set should be disconnected from the AC power (mains) for environmental and safety reasons.
• As the TV set is not disconnected from the AC power (mains) when the TV set is just turned off, pull the plug from the AC power outlet (mains socket) to disconnect the TV set completely.
  • However, some TV sets may have features that require the TV set to be left in standby to work correctly.

For children

• Do not allow children to climb on the TV set.
• Keep small accessories out of the reach of children, so that they are not mistakenly swallowed.

If the following problems occur...

Turn off the TV set and unplug the AC power cord (mains lead) immediately if any of the following problems occur.

Ask your dealer or Sony service centre to have it checked by qualified service personnel.

When:

• AC power cord (mains lead) is damaged.

Precautions

Viewing the TV

- Some people may experience discomfort (such as eye strain, fatigue, or nausea) while watching 3D video images or playing stereoscopic 3D games. Sony recommends that all viewers take regular breaks while watching 3D video images or playing stereoscopic 3D games. The length and frequency of necessary breaks will vary from person to person. You must decide what works best. If you experience any discomfort, you should stop watching the 3D video images or playing stereoscopic 3D games until the discomfort ends; consult a doctor if you believe necessary. You should also review (i) the instruction manual of any other device or media used with this television and (ii) our website (http://www.sony-asia.com/support) for the latest information. The vision of young children (especially those under six years old) is still under development. Consult your doctor (such as a pediatrician or eye doctor) before allowing young children to watch 3D video images or play stereoscopic 3D games. Adults should supervise young children to ensure they follow the recommendations listed above.

• Do not use, store, or leave the 3D Glasses or battery near a fire, or in places with a high temperature, e.g., in direct sunlight, or in sun-heated cars.
• When using the simulated 3D function, please note that the displayed image is modified from the original due to the conversion done by this television.
  • View the TV in moderate light, as viewing the TV in poor light or during long period of time, strains your eyes.
• When using headphones, adjust the volume so as to avoid excessive levels, as hearing damage may result.

LCD Screen

• Although the LCD screen is made with high-precision technology and 99.99% or more of the pixels are effective, black dots may appear or bright points of light (red, blue, or green) may appear constantly on the LCD screen. This is a structural property of the LCD screen and is not a malfunction.

• Do not push or scratch the front filter, or place objects on top of this TV set. The image may be uneven or the LCD screen may be damaged.

• If this TV set is used in a cold place, a smear may occur in the picture or the picture may become dark. This does not indicate a failure. These phenomena disappear as the temperature rises.

• Ghosting may occur when still pictures are displayed continuously. It may disappear after a few moments.
• The screen and cabinet get warm when this TV set is in use. This is not a malfunction.
• The LCD screen contains a small amount of liquid crystal. Follow your local ordinances and regulations for disposal.
• Do not subject the LCD screen to any strong impact or shock. The screen glass may crack or shatter and cause injury.

Handling and cleaning the screen surface/cabinet of the TV set

Be sure to unplug the AC power cord (mains lead) connected to the TV set from AC power outlet (mains socket) before cleaning.

To avoid material degradation or screen coating degradation, observe the following precautions.

- To remove dust from the screen surface/cabinet, wipe gently with a soft cloth. If dust is persistent, wipe with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a diluted mild detergent solution.

- Never spray water or detergent directly on the TV set. It may drip to the bottom of the screen or exterior parts and enter the TV set, and may cause damage to the TV set.

• Never use any type of abrasive pad, alkaline/acid cleaner, scouring powder, or volatile solvent, such as alcohol, benzene, thinner or insecticide. Using such materials or maintaining prolonged contact with rubber or vinyl materials may result in damage to the screen surface and cabinet material.
  • Periodic vacuuming of the ventilation openings is recommended to ensure to proper ventilation.
• When adjusting the angle of the TV set, move it slowly so as to prevent the TV set from moving or slipping off from its table stand.

Optional Equipment
