Overview

General Description

This Audiovox product is a Color Active Matrix liquid Crystal Display (LCD) with an integral
Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp (CCFL) backlight system. The matrix employs a Thin Film
Transistor (TFT) as the active element. This TFT-LCD has a 20.1 inch diagonally measured
active display area with a native 800x600 pixel resolution. Each pixel is divided into red,
blue, and green sub-pixels which are arranged in vertical stripes. The color palette is
capable of more then 16.7 million colors.

This Audiovox product incorporates a tilt stand that can be removed for easy wall mounting.
The wall mounting compatibility of this product is completed by incorporating a VESA 100
wall mount standard bolt configuration. A separate VESA 100 compatible wall mount kit will
be required to properly secure the unit to the wall.

This units has a great viewing angle allowing the unit to be seen at almost any viewing angle
with minimal loss in picture quality. The high brightness and contrast ratio will make this tv a
pleasure to watch. The internal VGA ability allows you to switch between watching tv and
your personal computer with just the switch of the source.

Important Safety Information

Important Safety Cautions

When any unusual situation occurs, turn off the power supply at once and remove
the plug from the wall outlet. Contact a qualified service department in your local
area.

Do not expose this unit in the rain or spatter by liquid. Do not use this product near
water - for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet
basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like. Do not use immediately after
moving from a low temperature to high temperature environment, as this causes
condensation, which may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.

Heat sources-Keep the product away from heat sources such as radiators, heaters, stoves
and other heat generating products (including amplifiers).
Requirement of environment temperature:

o o o o

0 C~50 C for storage; 5 C~40 C for working

The vents and other openings in the cabinet are designed for ventilation. Do not
cover or block these vents and openings since insufficient ventilation can cause
overheating and/or shorten the life of the product.
Do not place the product on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface, since they can
block ventilation openings.
This product is not designed for built-in installation; do not place the product in an
enclosed place such as a bookcase or rack, unless proper ventilation is provided
or the manufacturer's instructions are followed.

Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners
or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

Do not place the product on an unstable trolley, stand, tripod or table. Placing the
product on an unstable base can cause the product to fall, resulting in
serious personal injuries as well as damage to the product. Use only a trolley,
stand, tripod, and bracket or table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with
the product.

5

When relocating the product placed on a trolley, it must be moved with the utmost
care. Sudden stops, excessive force and uneven floor surfaces can cause the
product to fall from the trolley.

The power cords must be routed properly to prevent people from stepping on them
or objects from resting on them. Check the cords at the plugs and product. Power­supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or
snagged by items placed upon or against them. Pay particular attention to cords at
doors, plugs, receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.
If the power cord or the plug is damaged contact a qualified service department for
service.

High Voltage exists in this TV set. Do not remove the cover.
In case the product needs replacement parts, make sure that the service person
uses replacement parts specified by the manufacturer, or those with the same
characteristics and performance as the original parts. Use of unauthorized parts
can result in fire, electric shock and/or other danger.

For added protection for this television equipment during a lightning storm, or
when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the
wall outlet and disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage to the equipment
due to lightning and power-line surges.

The LCD panel used in this product is made of glass. Therefore, it can break when
the product is dropped or impacted upon by other objects. Be careful not to be
injured by broken glass pieces in case the LCD panel breaks.

Don't try to push anything into the cabinet or place any vessel with water on the TV
set.

Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or convenience receptacles on other
equipment as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

Important Information Regarding use of
Video Games, Computer, captions or other
fixed images displays

The extended use of a fixed image program material can cause permanent “Shadow Image” on
the LCD panel. The background image is viewable on normal programs in the form of stationary
fixed images. This type of irreversible LCD panel deterioration can be limited by observing the
following steps:

* Reduce the Brightness and Contrast settings to a minimum viewing level
* DO NOT display the fixed image for extended periods of time
* Turn the power OFF when not in actual use

Recycling

This product utilizes tin-lead solder, and has a fluorescent lamp containing a small amount of

FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO SCRAMBLED CABLE TV SERVICE OR SATELLITE

FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO UNSCRAMBLED BASIC CABLE TV SERVICE

WITH SCRAMBLED PREMIUM CHANNELS

If you subscribe to a satellite service or a cable TV service which requires the use of a converter/
descrambler box, connect the incoming 75 Ohm coaxial cable to the converter/descrambler box. Using
another 75 Ohm cable, connect the output of the converter/descrambler or satellite box to the antenna jack
on the TV. Follow the connections shown below. Set the TV/VCR to the output channel of the
converter/descrambler or satellite box (usually 3 or 4) and use the converter/descrambler or satellite box to
select channels.

If you subscribe to a satellite service or a cable TV service in which basic channels are unscrambled and
premium channels require the use of a converter/descrambler box, you may wish to use a signal splitter
and an A/B switch box (available from the cable company or an electronic supply store). Follow the
connections shown below. With the switch in the "B" position, you can directly tune any nonscrambled
channels on your TV. With the switch in the "A" position, tune your TV to the output of the
converter/descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the converter/descrambler box to tune
scrambled channels.

Cable (CATV)/satellite connections

This TV has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a Cable TV converter box.
Some Cable TV companies offer "premium pay channels" in which the signal is scrambled. Descrambling these
signals for normal viewing requires the use of a descrambler device which is generally provided by the cable
company.

FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO BASIC CABLE TV SERVICE

For basic cable service not requiring a converter/descrambler box,
connect the CATV 75 ohm coaxial cable to the VHF/UHF jack on the
rear of the TV.
