3. Carefully lift the TV and align the bottom mounting points with the assembled stand base. Refer to the diagram in Step 3.

4. Secure the TV to the stand base using four screws (M5L16). Refer to the diagram in Step 4.


What is the correct tightening torque for the stand screws?

The recommended tightening torque for the stand screws (M5L16) is 1.5 N·m {15 kgf-cm}.

How do I assemble the stand in the alternative (narrower/wider) position?

1. Identify the stand feet and screws (M5L16).

2. Attach each stand foot directly to the bottom of the TV using two screws (M5L16) per foot. Ensure the feet are oriented correctly as shown in the diagram for Step 5, position 2.

3. Tighten the screws securely. Refer to the diagram in Step 5.

4. Carefully lift and place the TV on a stable surface. Refer to the diagram in Step 6.


How do I connect the power cord and other cables?

1. Locate the AC IN port on the back of the TV.

2. Connect the power cord firmly into the AC IN port.

3. Connect other devices (like Blu-ray players, game consoles, soundbars, USB drives, etc.) to the appropriate ports (HDMI IN, USB, DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL), LAN, S-CENTER SPEAKER IN, Satellite inputs) as shown in the diagram for Step 7 and detailed diagrams *3, *4, *5, *6.

4. Route the cables neatly. For the 77-inch model, use the provided cable ties as shown in Step 9.


What are the available connection ports?

The available ports include:

• AC IN (Power input)

• USB ports (Port 1: 5V, 500 mA MAX for HDD REC; Port 2: 5V, 900 mA MAX)

• HDMI IN ports (Ports 3 and 4 support 4K 120 Hz; Port 3 supports eARC/ARC)

• DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL)

• S-CENTER SPEAKER IN (Use with compatible Sony soundbars)

• LAN port

• Satellite Inputs (MAIN and SUB., 13-19 V DC, 0.45 A)

Note: Port availability and specifications might vary slightly based on model/region.


What is the S-CENTER SPEAKER IN port used for?

The S-CENTER SPEAKER IN port is used to connect a compatible Sony soundbar or AV receiver, allowing the TV’s speakers to act as the center channel in your home theater setup for clearer dialogue. Diagram *3 shows connecting the S-CENTER OUT from a compatible device to the TV’s S-CENTER SPEAKER IN.

Which HDMI port supports eARC/ARC?

HDMI IN port 3 supports eARC/ARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel / Audio Return Channel). This allows audio from the TV (like built-in apps) to be sent back to a connected soundbar or AV receiver through the same HDMI cable. Diagram *4 illustrates this connection.

Which HDMI ports support 4K 120Hz?

HDMI IN ports 3 and 4 support 4K 120Hz input signals, suitable for connecting modern game consoles or PCs for high-frame-rate content.

How can I secure the TV to prevent it from tipping over?

1. Locate the screw hole(s) on the back of the TV intended for securing straps (refer to the diagram in Step 8).

2. Partially screw an M6 machine screw (not supplied) into the TV’s rear screw hole(s). The screw should penetrate 10 mm to 12 mm into the TV.

3. Secure the other end of the strap (not supplied) to a stable wall stud or furniture using appropriate hardware (not supplied).

4. Ensure the strap is taut but does not put excessive strain on the TV or anchor point.


How do I manage the cables using the supplied accessories?

1. Gather the connected cables together.

2. Use the provided cable ties (labeled ‘CC’) to bundle the cables neatly, as shown in the diagram for Step 9.

3. For the 77-inch model (*1), attach the larger cable cover as shown in Step 10.

4. Attach the rear panel covers (labeled ‘CD’ and ‘CN’) by sliding and clicking them into place, concealing the ports and cables. Refer to the diagram in Step 11.


How do I install the batteries in the remote control?

1. Slide open the battery cover on the back of the remote control.

2. Insert two AAA batteries (supplied), ensuring you match the (+) and (-) terminals correctly according to the diagram inside the battery compartment.

3. Slide the cover back into place until it clicks.

Refer to the diagram in Step 12.


How do I turn on the TV and start the initial setup?

1. Connect the TV’s power cord to an electrical outlet.

2. Press the power button on the remote control or on the TV itself.

3. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the initial setup process (language selection, network connection, channel tuning, etc.).

Refer to the diagram in Step 13.


What are the screw length limitations for wall mounting?

When using screws for wall mounting or other attachments in the rear holes, observe the maximum penetration depths:

• For holes near HDMI 1/2 & Digital Out (*4): Maximum 21 mm.

• For holes near LAN & Satellite ports (*5): Maximum 7 mm.

• For other specified holes (*6): Maximum 14 mm or 12 mm depending on the hole location.

Always use screws appropriate for the VESA mounting bracket and ensure they do not exceed the specified depth into the TV to avoid internal damage.
