Getting Started
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. If you are not mounting the TV to a wall, you will need to attach the Table-Top
Stand. You will need a Phillips screwdriver and the supplied screws to complete the task. Look for
the attachment instructions provided with the TV.
Be sure to consider the following while setting up your TV:
• Disconnect all cables when carrying the TV.
• 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.
KDL-22BX321/KDL-22BX320
• 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.

Securing the TV
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.
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.
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 TV stand (not supplied).
1
Secure the stand for the TV.
Make sure the TV 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 TV stand.

Using a Wall-Mount Bracket
Your TV can be mounted on a wall using a Wall-Mount Bracket (not supplied) out of the box as
packaged. Some larger size TV may require removing the Table-Top Stand; refer to the
instructions provided with the TV.
Prepare the TV for the Wall-Mount Bracket before making cable connections.
For product protection and safety reasons, Sony strongly recommends that you use the Wall-
Mount Bracket designed for your TV and the installation should be performed by a Sony
dealer or licensed contractor.
• Follow the instruction guide provided with the Wall-Mount Bracket for your model. Sufficient
expertise is required in installing this TV, especially to determine the strength of the wall for
withstanding the TV’s 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 as indicated by illustration 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.

Explanation/Solution
Black bands appear at the
edges of the screen
• Some wide screen programs are filmed in aspect ratios that are greater
than 16:9 (this is especially common with theatrical releases). Your TV
will show these programs with black bands at the top and bottom of the
screen. For more details, check the documentation that came with your
DVD/Blu-ray (or contact your program provider).
• Programs in 4:3 aspect ratio will have bands on left and right sides of the
screen.
• Programs broadcast in HD formats (720p and 1080i) with 4:3 content
will commonly have black bands on the left and right sides of the screen
which are added by the broadcaster (see image on left).
• Auto Wide will not expand the picture when the black bands on the
sides of the screen are added by the broadcaster. You can manually
change the Wide Mode to Wide Zoom, or Zoom to fill the screen,
which will remain in affect until you change the channel or input or
manually change the Wide Mode again.
Certain programs on DVD • This is due to the digital compression of the source content used by
certain digital broadcasts and DVDs which may cause your TV’s screen
to display less detail than usual, or cause artifacts (small blocks or dots,
pixelations) to appear on your screen. These signal compressions are
more visible and are dependent on the clarity and resolution of the TV.
