The indicators show the current status of your LCD projection TV.
Screen
To minimize reflection, the screen’s surface has a special coating. Read the
instructions “Cleaning the Screen Surface” on page 15 carefully before
cleaning.
Inappropriate cleaning methods could damage the screen’s finish.
Projection lamp
Your LCD projection TV uses a projection lamp as its light source. The
projection lamp is located under the Control Panel cover as noted in the
diagram above. Note the following:
❑
After turning on your LCD projection TV, it may take a while before the
picture appears (1 minute or less).
❑
When the projection lamp wears out, the screen goes dark. Replace the
lamp with a new Sony XL-2100U or XL-2100 (for WE655 series), or
XL-2200 (for WF655 series) replacement lamp (not supplied).
✍ After replacing the lamp, be sure to attach the lamp cover securely;
otherwise, your LCD projection TV will not turn on. For details on lamp
replacement, see “Replacing the Lamp” on page 16.
✍ The light emitted from the lamp is quite bright when your LCD projection
TV is in use. To avoid eye discomfort or injury, do not look into the
housing when the power is on.

Notes on the LCD
Projection TV
To enjoy clear pictures
❑
Prevent sunlight or other light sources from shining.
❑
The screen surface is easily scratched. Do not rub, touch, or tap it with a
sharp or abrasive object (see “Cleaning the Screen Surface” below).
On moisture condensation
❑
If your LCD projection TV is moved directly from a cold to a warm
location, is placed in a humid room, or if the room temperature changes
suddenly, the picture may blur or show poor color. This is caused by
moisture condensation on the lenses inside. If this happens, leave the
power on to help the moisture evaporate. When the condensation has
evaporated, the picture of your LCD projection TV will return to
normal.
When not using the LCD Projection TV for a long period of time
❑
Turn off the main power on the front of your LCD projection TV before
going to sleep or going out. Unplug the AC power cord from the outlet if
you anticipate not using the LCD projection TV for more than a week.
❑
The fan will continue to operate for about two minutes. Allow several
minutes before unplugging from the outlet or switching the breaker off.
Before carrying the LCD Projection TV
❑
Before carrying, unplug the power cord and disconnect all cables.
See page 28 for instructions on how to carry your LCD projection TV.
Cleaning the Screen
Surface
To remove dust on the screen, wipe with soft cloth.
✍ Do not use any type of abrasive pad, alkaline cleaner, scouring powder,
window cleaners or solvent such as alcohol or benzene. Using these
types of products may damage the screen.
✍ To clean the screen, use the cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent
and water solution. Use gentle pressure when cleaning.

Replacing the Lamp
The projection lamp, which illuminates the picture, has a limited life.
If the screen becomes dark, the color looks unusual, or the LAMP indicator
on the front of the LCD projection TV flashes, it is time to replace the lamp
with a new one (not supplied).
WARNING
Electric appliances can cause fire or high temperature, resulting in injury
or death. Be sure to follow the instructions below.
❑
Use a Sony XL-2100U or XL-2100 (for WE655 series), or XL-2200
(for WF655 series) replacement lamp (not supplied) for replacement.
Use of any other lamp may damage the LCD projection TV.
❑
❑
Do not remove the lamp for any purpose other than replacement. Doing
so may cause injury or fire.
Before replacing the lamp, turn the power off on the main unit. Wait
several minutes, then unplug the power cord. (The cooling fan will
continue to blow for about two minutes after turning the power off.)
❑
❑
Allow the lamp to cool down completely before removing it. The
surface of the lamp remains extremely hot for at least 30 minutes after
the power has been turned off.
Do not put flammable materials and metal objects inside the lamp
receptacle of the LCD projection TV after removing the lamp. Doing so
may cause fire or electrical shock.
❑
❑
❑
To avoid being burned, do not touch the lamp receptacle once the lamp
has been removed.
Mount the new lamp securely. Failure to do so may cause a fire or the
screen to go dark.
Do not touch the glass of the new lamp with your fingers.
✍ Avoid touching the front glass of a new lamp as this may reduce picture
quality or lamp life.

box.)
✍ With this connection, all channels come into the LCD projection TV
through your cable box and only one unscrambled signal is sent to the
LCD projection TV, so you cannot use the dual picture features. If some
of your channels are scrambled, but others are not, consider using the
“Cable Box and Antenna” connection on page 34 instead.

Using CableCARD
CableCARD provides cable subscribers with access to digitally encrypted
cable channels — without the need for a set-top box — that will enable you
to receive not only standard definition but also high definition television. The
CableCARD, which is provided by your cable TV company, is inserted into
the TV’s rear panel CableCARD slot. After the service is activated with your
cable TV company, the card replaces the need for a separate set-top box.
About Using CableCARD
If you are planning to use a separate cable box for digital cable TV services, you may be able to receive
programming using this TV with the CableCARD instead — except in the following circumstances:
❑ Your cable TV company does not provide CableCARD service in your viewing area.
❑ You want to access your cable TV company’s interactive or advanced features (such as video-on-
demand or, in some cases, pay-per-view). At this time, these services require a bidirectional link,
which are only available through the use of a separate set-top box. CableCARD is currently a
unidirectional device only, and cannot provide these advanced services.
Check with your cable TV company for CableCARD service details, limitations, pricing, and
availability, all of which are determined by your cable TV company — not Sony.
Activating
CableCARD Service
Before you can use CableCARD service, you need to insert the CableCARD
(supplied by your cable TV company) and activate the service, as described
below:
1 Insert the CableCARD into the TV’s CableCARD slot.

download the service information, including the channel list, to the
CableCARD. After the CableCARD has acquired channels from your
cable TV company, the TV tunes to the lowest available channel.

CableCARD
In the event you want to cancel your service, contact your cable TV
company.
✍ Once the CableCARD is removed, your TV will no longer decrypt digital
cable TV programming services that require CableCARD.
1 Push the eject button on the TV’s CableCARD slot to release the card.

Factors Affecting Twin View
❑
❑
❑
If you use a cable box to view all channels, the same channel appears in
both windows because the cable box unscrambles and sends only one
channel at a time. (To view the picture in dual picture features such as
Twin View, Freeze, etc. see “Cable Box and Antenna” on page 34.)
If you use a cable box and other video equipment, you can view the
cable box output in one window and view a different source (such as a
VCR or DVD player) in the second window by using the TV/VIDEO
button.
Digital TV channels, as well as any sources connected to the HD/DVD
IN 5-6, and HDMI IN 7 inputs display in the left window, but not the
right.
❑
❑
If you are viewing a 4:3 source and a 16:9 enhanced source (such as a
DVD) side by side, the 4:3 source appears larger.
Twin View does not display channels that are blocked by parental
settings (see page 108).

Movies (MPEG1 files)
You can also play slide show background music using MP3 files stored on
your Memory Stick.
For more information about handling Memory Stick media, see “Notes on
Using Memory Stick Media” on page 94.

About Memory Stick PRO Media
Memory Stick PRO media features vary by and are dependent upon the
design of host hardware devices. Memory Stick PRO in this LCD projection
TV has been tested to support up to 1 GB media capacity and does not
support high-speed transfer, MagicGate copyright protection technology, or
access control security features.
Memory Stick
Functionality
Sony cannot guarantee or assure the Memory Stick functionality on this
television in the following cases:
❑
❑
You are using non-Sony brand Memory Stick media.
You are using video or audio clips that have been processed on a
computer.
❑
You are using files that were obtained from the Internet or from a
printed film processing center.
❑
The Memory Stick has been formatted on a personal computer.
Sony recommends that you back up all data stored on Memory Stick media
to avoid potential data loss. In the above two cases, in order to avoid
potential data corruption that may occur, be sure to back up data prior to use
with the TV’s Memory Stick Viewer. Sony cannot accept responsibility in
the event that data recorded to Memory Stick media is lost or damaged. For
certain non-Sony brand Memory Stick media, you can view images, but you
cannot rotate, delete or protect/unprotect images on the television. An error
message will occur if you attempt any of these operations. This is a result of
the unique file directory structure on these particular flash memory media
and is not a malfunction of the television.

CableCARD
The PCMIA shaped card provided by your cable TV company which descrambles the
digitally encrypted cable channels. You should check with your local cable TV
company about CableCARD service.
component video
Component video is sent through three cables: two color shade (chrominance) signals
and one brightness (luminance) signal. Component video achieves greater color
accuracy than composite video or S VIDEO by splitting chrominance into two
separate portions.
composite video
Composite video is sent through a single cable. Composite video combines the color
shade (chrominance) and brightness (luminance) information into one video signal.
digital television (DTV)
A new technology for transmitting and receiving broadcast television signals. DTV
provides higher resolution and improved sound quality over analog television.
HDMI (High-Definition
Multimedia Interface)
Provides an uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface between this TV and any
HDMI-equipped audio/video component, such as a set-top box, DVD player, and
A/V receiver. HDMI supports enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel
digital audio.
National Television
System Committee
(NTSC)
A unit of the Federal Communications Commission, Washington, DC, that
establishes television standards in the United States, such as NTSC Color, the
standard used in this LCD projection TV.
RF
Radio Frequency. That part of the frequency spectrum that is used to transmit TV and
radio signals.
S VIDEO
S VIDEO requires a single cable, which carries the brightness (luminance) and color
(chrominance) signals of the picture separately. S VIDEO provides better resolution
than composite video, which carries the signals together.
VHF/UHF
480i
VHF (Very High Frequency) is the part of the frequency spectrum from 30 to 300
megahertz. UHF (Ultra High Frequency) is the part of the frequency spectrum from
300 to 3,000 megahertz.

Black bands appear at the top
and bottom 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 LCD projection 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 (or contact your
program provider).
Certain programs on DVD or
other digital sources display a
loss of detail, especially during
fast-motion or dark scenes
❏
The compression used by certain digital broadcasts and DVDs may cause your
LCD projection TV’s screen to display less detail than usual, or cause artifacts
(small blocks or dots, pixelations) to appear on your screen. This is due to your
LCD projection TV’s large screen and ability to show very fine detail, and is
normal for certain digitally recorded programs. Adjust the reality/clarity in the
DRC Palette menu (see page 100) to optimize the picture while viewing these
sources.
