damaging the finish. Wipe the shell with a dry
soft cloth and use neutral cleaning fluids.

If your model has leather components, wipe the
leather parts with a dry cloth and keep the area
dry. Place the TV far from sources of steam to
avoid making the leather wet.

Be careful to disconnect the power plug
correctly. Hold the plug. Do not attempt to
disconnect the plug by pulling on the power cord.

shown to the left to avoid knotting or bending
which may cause fire due to damage or electric
leakage.

remote ocntrol from shock or vibration to avoid damages.

• Check the remote control batteries on a regular basis. Clean any stains
on the rear battery cover immediately and use new batteries if fluid is

Glossary

Aspect Ratio: The ratio of width to height of a film, image or display

screen.

Broadcast TV: Broadcasting video signals using high-frequency

electromagnetic waves to distribute television channels to viewers
(standard TV broadcast).

CATV: Community Antenna Television, the original name for cable

TV. A television distribution system that uses coaxial cable instead of
the traditional radio broadcasting (over-the-air) method to deliver
television, FM radio, and other services to consumers.

Color Temperature: Adjusting the color temperature enables you to

set the intensity of white light. Color temperature is measured in
Kelvin (K). Higher color temperatures result in a blue tint. Lower
temperatures result in a red tint.

Hue: Colors in a color system are measured by hue, saturation and

luminance. Hue indicates the predominant color.

LCD (Liquid Crystal Display): A display technology that uses rod-

shaped molecules (liquid crystals) that flow like liquid and bend light.

MTS: Multi-channel Television Sound. Enables reception of audio

other than the primary (stereo) audio signal. SAP (Second Audio
Program) enables reception of a separate channel that may be a
different language or completely different information such as the
news.

OSD (On-Screen Display): A control panel on the television screen that

allows you to select viewing options.

Saturation: Chromatic purity indicating the amount of white contained

in a color. Fully saturated colors are pure colors; less saturated
colors appear as pastel shades.

Stereo: is the default audio signal belonging to a particular channel.
S-Video: Separate video, a video cabling standard used to transmit
