To ensure that your personal data is not accessible to unauthorized users, it's recommended to perform a factory reset on the TV before disposal. This will delete any stored user data, including login information, app data, and browsing history. To perform a factory reset on your Sony KDL-52XBR4 Bravia TV, you can follow these general steps:

1. Access the TV's settings menu.

2. Navigate to the "System" or "Setup" section.

3. Look for an option related to "Reset" or "Factory Reset."

4. Follow the on-screen prompts to confirm and initiate the reset process.

By performing a factory reset, you can have peace of mind that your personal data is removed from the TV before it is disposed of.

If you can operate the Home menu screen with the remote control:
