Selecting a location for the TV
1)Place the TV on the floor or on a sturdy platform in a location where light does not directly hit the screen.
2)Place the TV far enough from the walls to allow proper ventilation. Inadequate ventilation may cause
overheating, which may damage the TV.
Wall Mounting your TV
The TL2020 is a VESA compliant LCD TV which means that it can be wall mounted using a standard VESA
compliant mounting bracket. VESA compliant mounting brackets are available at your local electronics
store. The sizing of the bracket should be 100mm x 100mm. Please consult the store you are purchasing
the bracket from for details. Note that the base of the TV needs to be removed before attaching the wall
mounting bracket. Simply place the LCD screen, face down, on a soft, cushioned, non slip, non abrasive
surface, making sure that it cannot slip or slide. Now remove the screws that are holding the base in place.
Connecting your TV
Caution: Do not plug the TV in until you have finished connecting all of your equipment.

To enjoy the terrestrial signal transmitted by your local TV station, you need an indoor or outdoor aerial (not supplied).
Perfect picture quality requires a good signal and generally means that an outdoor aerial must be implemented. The
exact type and location of the aerial will depend on your particular area. Consult your local dealer or service
personnel for best advice. If you are a subscriber of your local CATV provider, the outdoor or indoor aerial is not needed.
Connect the equipment as follows:

Preparation for using your new TV
Connecting to a cable converter box
This television has an extended tuning range and can tune into most cable channels without using a cable
company supplied converter box. Some cable 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, you do not require a Converter/Descrambler box. Connect the CATV 75 ohm Coaxial
Cable directly to the Antenna Jack on the back of the television.
For subscribers to Scrambled Cable TV Service
If you subscribe to a cable service which requires the use of a Converter/Descrambler box, connect the
incoming cable to the Converter/Descrambler box and connect the output of the box to the Antenna Jack
on the back of the television. Follow the connections shown below. Set the television to the output of the
Converter/Descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4)and use the Converter/Descrambler box remote control
to select channels.
For Subscribers to Unscrambled Basic Cable with Scrambled Premium Channels
If you subscribe to a cable service in which basic cable channels are unscrambled and premium channels
require the use of a Converter/Descrambled box, you may wish to use a two-set signal splitter (sometimes
Called two set coupler) and an A/B Switch box from the cable installer or an electronics supply store.
Follow the connections shown below. With the switch in the B position, you can directly tune into 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 box to tune into scrambled channels.

When you use a converter box with your TV, there may be TV features that you cannot

Cleaning and care
WARNING: TV sets use high voltage. Do not try to remove the back cabinet yourself. There are no user
serviceable parts inside. Note that opening the cabinet could void your warranty. Refer
servicing to qualified service technicians.
To clean the TV screen:
1) Unplug the TV to avoid possible shock hazard.
2) Use a damp cloth or clean cellulose sponge to clean the TV screen and trim. Do not allow water to spill
into the cabinet or damage may occur.
3) Wipe off any excess moisture with a clean dry cloth.
4) Polish the cabinet with a quality furniture polish to maintain the finish and appearance of the cabinet.
Caution: Never use strong solvents such as thinner, benzene, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet.
These chemicals can damage the finish of the cabinet.
Important notice
1. When the TV does not behave properly for some reason, please unplug the power and plug it back in.
2. Displaying a still picture for a long time will cause image sticking when the input signal is interlaced. The
image sticking will disappear when you turn off the TV for a moment. When using an interlaced input
signal, we recommend not to display a still image for a long time.
