About the SXRD projection TV
Although the SXRD projection TV is made with highprecision technology, black dots may appear or bright
points of light (red, blue, or green) may appear constantly
on the SXRD screen. This is a structural property of the
SXRD panel and is not a defect.

❑

In rare instances, the bulb may pop inside the lamp
unit, but the lamp unit is designed to contain all of
broken glass pieces inside the lamp unit. (See
“Replacing the Lamp” on page 20.)

❑

When the lamp eventually burns out, you may hear
a noticeable pop sound. This is normal and is
inherent in this type of lamp.

Cooling fan
❑ This SXRD projection TV uses a cooling fan. You
may hear the noise of fan running, depending on the
placement of your SXRD projection TV. The noise
may be more noticeable during the night or when the
background noise level is low.
❑ When the temperature of the SXRD projection TV
rises, the cooling fan runs faster.
❑ Although the SXRD projection TV is switched to
standby mode, the cooling fan continues to run for a
few minutes.

Installation
❑

❑

❑
❑

If direct sunlight or other strong illumination shines
on the screen, part of the screen may appear white
due to reflections from behind the screen. This is a
structural property of the SXRD projection TV.
Do not expose the screen to direct illumination or
direct sunlight.
The picture quality may be affected by your viewing
position. Sit at least 8 ft. (approx. 2.4~2.5 m) away
from your SXRD projection TV, and within 76º of
the vertical and 130º of the horizontal viewing area.
If you sit too close to the TV, you may experience
eye strain. For the best picture quality, install your
SXRD projection TV according to “Recommended
Viewing Area” on page 32.
When installing your SXRD projection TV against a
wall, keep it at least 4 inches (10 cm) from the wall.
Avoid installing the SXRD projection TV near a
heater, etc.

Projection lamp
❑ Your SXRD projection TV uses a projection lamp as
its light source. It is time to replace the lamp with a
new one (not supplied) when:
• the lamp replacement indicator on the front panel
blinks in red,
• screen images become dark,
• no image appears on the display after prolonged
use.

To minimize reflection, the screen’s surface has a special coating. Read the

cleaning. Inappropriate cleaning methods could damage the screen’s finish.
Detachable speakers (left/right)

The left and right speakers output audio signal. The speakers are packed
separately in the packing box. For details on how to attach the speakers to
the TV, see page 18.
Projection lamp

Your SXRD projection TV uses a projection lamp as its light source. The
projection lamp is located under the Front Panel Cover as noted in the
diagram above. Note the following:
❑

The SXRD projection TV cools down its projection lamp when the
power is turned off. It takes up to two minutes for the picture to come
back after the TV is turned on again. The POWER/STANDBY LED
blinks in green while the picture is coming up.

❑

When the projection lamp wears out, the screen goes dark. Replace the
lamp with a new Sony XL-5000 replacement lamp (not supplied).

✍ After replacing the lamp, be sure to attach the lamp cover securely;

otherwise, your SXRD projection TV will not turn on. For details on lamp
replacement, see “Replacing the Lamp” on page 20.

✍ The light emitted from the lamp is quite bright when your SXRD

projection TV is in use. To avoid eye discomfort or injury, do not look
into the housing when the power is on.

✍ The projection lamp is a consumable product that wears out after use for
a certain period of time. When the lamp wears out, replace it with a new
one so that you can enjoy the original quality of the SXRD picture again.

SXRD
2-584-141-12(1)

Introducing the Sony SXRD Projection TV

To enjoy clear pictures
❑ Prevent sunlight or other light sources from shining directly onto the

screen.
❑

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 SXRD 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 SXRD projection TV will return to
normal.
When not using the SXRD Projection TV for a long period of time
❑ Turn off the main power on the front of your SXRD projection TV

before going to sleep or going out. Unplug the AC power cord from the
outlet if you anticipate not using the SXRD projection TV for more than
a week.
When turning off the power
❑ 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 SXRD Projection TV
❑ Before carrying, unplug the power cord and disconnect all cables.

See page 30 for instructions on how to carry your SXRD projection TV.
❑

Cleaning the Screen
Surface

Be sure to first remove the speakers before moving your SXRD
projection TV.

To remove dust from the front of the screen, wipe with the supplied cleaning
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 supplied cleaning cloth lightly moistened
with a mild detergent and water solution. Use gentle pressure when
cleaning.

✍ The supplied cleaning cloth is washable with warm water and a mild
detergent solution, and can be used repeatedly.

✍ To remove the static from the screen, use the supplied anti-static brush.
All the dust and static will be removed. Use gentle pressure when
brushing.

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:

Insert the CableCARD into the TV’s CableCARD slot.

✍ CAUTION: Inserting the CableCARD incorrectly may result in permanent
damage to the card and the TV.

Gently push the card into the slot until it locks into place.

Follow the displayed instructions: Phone your cable TV company. A
representative will guide you through the activation process.

After your CableCARD is activated, your cable TV company will
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.

After 1-2 minutes, the CableCARD setup screen is automatically
displayed. This screen includes information your cable TV company
will request before they can activate your service.

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.

Push the eject button on the TV’s CableCARD slot to release the card.

If you have video equipment other than Sony brand that you want to control
with the SXRD projection TV’s remote control, use the following procedure
to program the remote control.

✍ The equipment must have infrared (IR) remote capability in order to be
used with the remote control.

Turn to the list of “Manufacturer’s Codes” on page 65, and find the
three-digit code number for the manufacturer of your equipment. (If
more than one code number is listed, use the number listed first.)

Press FUNCTION repeatedly until the DVD/VCR, SAT/CABLE or
i.LINK indicator lights up.

Press SAT/CABLE for five seconds until the indicator of the selected
input flashes.

While the desired indicator is flashing, enter the three-digit
manufacturer’s code number.

Press ENTER.

✍ You must do step 5 within 10 seconds of step 4, or you must redo
steps 4 through 5.

To check if the code number works, aim the SXRD projection TV’s
remote control at the equipment and press SAT/CABLE that
corresponds with that equipment. If it responds, you are done. If not, try
using another code listed for that manufacturer.

✍ 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

supplied 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.

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 37.)

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 4-5, and HDMI IN 6-7 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 118).

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 SXRD
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.

analog signal
aspect ratio

A signaling method that uses continuous changes in the amplitude or frequency of an
electronic transmission to convey information.
Refers to the ratio between the width and height of the screen. This SXRD projection
TV has a 16:9 (widescreen) aspect ratio, as opposed to a 4:3 aspect ratio.
4:3 aspect ratio

CableCARD

component video

16:9 aspect ratio

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 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.
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 two-channel
digital audio.

Radio Frequency. That part of the frequency spectrum that is used to transmit TV and
radio signals.
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 (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.
Provides 480 lines of resolution. Displays images using interlaced scanning, which
first transmits all the odd lines on the SXRD projection TV screen and then the even
lines.

The compression used by certain digital broadcasts and DVDs may cause your
SXRD 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
