A fine horizontal line (wire) is visible

m This wire stabilizes the vertically striped Aperture Grille (page 16).

This Aperture Grille allows more light to pass through to the screen
giving the Trinitron CRT more color and brightness.

Hum is heard right after the power is turned on

m When the power is turned on, the Auto-degauss cycle is activated.

While the Auto-degauss cycle is activated, a hum may be heard. The
same hum is heard when the display is manually degaussed. This is
not a malfunction.

• If the problem persists, call your authorized Sony dealer from a

location near you, or call Sony Technical Support at 1-888-4SONYPC
(1-888-476-6972).

• Note the model name and the serial number of your display. Also note

the make and name of your computer and video board.
