The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend, and larger TVs are popular
purchases. However, TVs are not always supported on the proper stands or installed
according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. We and the consumer electronics
industry are committed to making home entertainment enjoyable and safe.
TVs that are inappropriately placed on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers, chests,
or carts may fall over and cause injury.
Tune into safety
•One size of TV stand does not fit all. Use only a TV stand
rated for the weight of your TV.
•Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions
for proper use of this product.
•Don’t let children climb on or play with entertainment
system furniture and TVs.
•Don’t place TVs on furniture that can easily be used as
steps, such as a chest of drawers.
•Remember that children can become excited while
watching a program, especially on a “larger-than-life” TV.
Make sure that you place or install the TV where it cannot
be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.
•Make sure that you route all cords and cables so that they
cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children.

safety tips in mind
Wall mounting
If you decide to wall mount your TV, always remember:
•One size of wall mount does not fit all. Use only a wall mount rated for the weight of
your TV and that has been recommended by this TV manufacturer, listed in this
manual, or otherwise listed by an independent laboratory as suitable for your TV.
•Follow all instructions supplied by the TV and wall mount manufacturers.
•If you have any doubts about your ability to safely wall mount your TV, get help from a
professional installer.
•Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the TV is
appropriate. Some wall mounts are not designed to be
mounted to walls backed with steel studs or cinder blocks. If
you are unsure, ask a professional installer.
•TVs can be heavy. At least two people are required for safe wall mount installation.

Important safety
instructions
CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
This symbol indicates that dangerous
voltage constituting a risk of electric
shock is present within your TV. This
label is located on the back of your TV.
This symbol indicates that there are
important operating and maintenance
instructions in the literature
accompanying your TV.
1 Read these instructions.
2 Keep these instructions.
3 Heed all warnings.
4 Follow all instructions.
5 Do not use this apparatus near water.
6 Clean only with dry cloth.
7 Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in
accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
8 Do not install near any heat sources such as
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other
apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce
heat.
9 Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized
plug has two blades with one wider than the
other. A grounding type plug has two blades
and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or
the third prong are provided for your safety. If
the provided plug does not fit into your outlet,
consult an electrician for replacement of the
obsolete outlet.
10 Protect the power cord from being walked on or
pinched particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from
the apparatus.
11 Only use attachments/accessories specified by
the manufacturer.
12 Use only with a cart, stand, tripod,
bracket, or table specified by the
manufacturer, or sold with the
apparatus. When a cart is used, use
caution when moving the
cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from
tip-over.
13 Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms
or when unused for long periods of time.
14 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the apparatus has
been damaged in any way, such as
power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid
has been spilled or objects have fallen into the
3125A
apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to
rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or
has been dropped.
15 The mains plug is the disconnecting device. The
plug must remain readily operable.
16 The apparatus with grounding-type plug is a
class I apparatus. Class I apparatus need to be
connected to earth ground wire to prevent
possible electric shock. Make sure that you
connect the class I apparatus to a mains socket
outlet with a protective earthing connection.
17 Remote control batteries should not be exposed
to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire, or the
like.
18 The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping
or splashing, and no objects filled with liquids,
such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.
Warnings
Electric shock hazard
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
remove any cover or expose the device to rain or
moisture. No user-serviceable parts are inside. Refer
servicing to qualified service technicians.
Lightning
For added protection for your device receiver
during a lightning storm, or when it is left
unattended and unused for long periods of time,
unplug it from the power outlet and disconnect any
antenna or cable system. This helps prevent
property damage and personal injury from
lightning and power line surges.
Power lines
An outside antenna system should not be located in
the vicinity of overhead power lines or other
electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall
into such power lines or circuits. When installing an
outside antenna system, extreme care should be
taken to keep from touching such power lines or
circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
Handling the LCD panel
• Your TV’s screen is made of glass. Do not drop
your TV or hit, jolt, or press hard against the LCD
panel. If the screen breaks, be careful of broken
glass.
• If the LCD panel is broken, make absolutely sure
that you do not touch the liquid in the panel. This
may cause skin inflammation.
• If the liquid gets in your mouth, immediately
gargle, rinse, and consult with your doctor. Also, if
the liquid gets in your eyes or touches your skin,
consult with your doctor after rinsing for at least
15 minutes or longer in clean water.
Replacement parts
When replacement parts are required, make sure
that the service technician uses replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer that have the same
characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock,
personal injury, or other hazards.

Safety check
After completing any service or repair to this device,
ask the service technician to perform routine safety
checks to determine that your TV is in correct
operating condition.
Power source
Operate your TV only from the type of power source
indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure
of the type of power supplied to your home, consult
an electrician or your local power company.
Cautions
Damage requiring service
Unplug this TV from the power outlet and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel under the
following conditions:
• When the power supply cord or plug is damaged
or frayed.
• If liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen
into your TV.
• If your TV has been exposed to rain or water.
• If your TV does not operate normally by following
the operating instructions. Adjust only those
controls that are covered by the operating
instructions because incorrect adjustment of
other controls may result in damage and will
often require extensive work by a qualified
technician to restore your TV to its normal
operation.
• If your TV has been dropped or damaged in any
way.
• When your TV exhibits a distinct change in
performance.
Outdoor antenna grounding
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected
to your TV, make sure that the antenna or cable
system is grounded to provide some protection
against voltage surges and built-up static charges.
Article 810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA No. 70, provides information with
respect to correct grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire
to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors, location of the antenna-discharge unit,
connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode.
Power service grounding electrode system

Note to CATV system installer
Article 820 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA No. 40 provides guidance for correct
grounding. Specifically, it states that the cable
ground must be connected to the grounding
system of the building as close to the point of cable
entry as practical.
Condensation
Moisture will form on the TV if the TV is brought
from cool surroundings into a warm room or if the
temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this
happens, the TV's performance may be impaired. To
prevent this, let the TV stand in its new
surroundings for about an hour before switching it
on, or make sure that the room temperature rises
gradually.
Condensation may also form during the summer if
the TV is exposed to the breeze from an air
conditioner. In such cases, change the location of
the TV.
Mobile telephone warning
To avoid interference with your TV picture and
sound, operating problems, or even damage, keep
your cordless and cellular telephones away from
the TV.
End of life directives
Your TV contains tin-lead solder and a fluorescent
lamp containing a small amount of mercury.
Disposal of these materials may be regulated for
environmental reasons. Your TV also contains
material that can be recycled and reused. For
disposal or recycling information, contact your local
authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance at
www.eia.org to find a recycler in your area.
Non-active pixels
The LCD panel contains almost 3 million thin film
transistors, which provide exceptionally sharp video
quality. Occasionally, a few non-active pixels may
appear on the screen as a fixed blue, green, or red
point. These non-active pixels do not adversely
affect the performance of your TV, and are not
considered defects.

codes before finding a match.
2 Follow your universal remote control’s
instructions to enter the TV code you found in
Step 1.
Tips
• If your universal remote control has a code
search feature, run a code search to identify a
code that matches your TV. See your universal
remote control’s instructions for details.
• If your universal remote control has a “Learn”
feature, you can manually program it using the
Insignia TV remote to “teach” the commands
one at a time. See your universal remote
control’s instructions for details.
3 If all else fails, you must use a different universal
remote control that can operate both your
set-top box and your TV. Four such remotes are
listed on the chart, but many other compatible
models are available in the market.
For more help, call technical support for your
universal remote control or set-top box
manufacturer, or call the Insignia Customer Care
Center at 1-877-467-4289.

Setting or changing the password
Your TV has a V-chip that lets you control the type
of programs your children can watch. Parental
controls include two ratings: MPAA (based on age)
and TV Parental Guidelines (based on content and
age). A TV program may have an MPAA or TV
Parental Guidelines rating, so you should set
controls for both ratings.
Before you can select ratings, you need to set up a
parental controls password.

Programming your remote
control
To program your remote to control home theater
devices, follow these steps.
Before proceeding, find the codes for the devices
you want to program in “Manufacturers’ codes” on
page 32 and write them down or highlight them.
To program your remote control:
1 Turn on the device (for example, a DVD player)
and, if needed, load media such as a DVD.
2 Press the device key on the remote for the
device that you want to program (TV, DVD, STB,
or AUX).
3 Press and hold SET until the red LED blinks
twice, then release.
4 Enter the first five-digit code for the device and
brand that you wish to program. The LED blinks
once as each digit is entered. If the code is valid,
the LED blinks twice.
Note
If the LED does not blink twice, repeat steps 2 to 4
and try entering the code again.
5 Aim the remote at the device and press
(power). The device should turn off. If it does
not, repeat Steps 3 through 5, trying each code
for your brand until you find one that works. If
you cannot find a code that works, see
“Searching for your code” below.
6 Repeat Steps 1 to 5 for the other devices you
want to control. For future reference, write down
each working device code.
Searching for your code
If your device does not respond to the remote
control after trying all codes listed for your brand, or
if your brand is not listed, try searching for your
code.
To search for your code:
1 Turn on the device you want to control.
2 Press the desired device key (TV, DVD, STB, or
AUX) once.
3 Press and hold SET until the red LED blinks
twice, then release.
4 Enter 9 9 1. The LED blinks twice.
5 Press the device group number for your device
type (see table below).
• 0—Cable (cable converters, video accessories,
satellite receivers)
• 1—TV ( TVs)
• 2—VCR (VCRs, DVD players)
• 3—Audio (audio amplifiers, audio
amps/tuners, CD players)
6 Aim the remote at the device and press
(power). The remote sends IR codes from its
library to the selected device, starting with the
most popular code first. If the device responds,
go to Step 8.
7 If the device does not respond, press CH and
the remote tests the next code for that device
type. Continue to press CH until the device
turns off.
Note
Press CH to try the previous code.
8 Now that you have found the correct code, press
SET to save the code that worked for your
device. The LED blinks twice to indicate that the
code has been saved.
9 To search for other device codes, repeat Steps 1
to 8.
Checking the codes
If you have set up the remote using the procedure
in “Searching for your code” on page 29, you may
need to find out which five-digit code is operating
your equipment.
To find out which code is assigned to your TV
(for example):
1 Press TV once.
2 Press and hold SET until the red LED blinks
twice, then release.
3 Enter 9 9 0. The LED blinks twice.
4 To view the code for the first digit, press 1.
Count the red LED blinks (for example, three
blinks = 3), then write down the number in the
appropriate code listing at the top of this
column.
Note
If the LED does not blink, the code digit is 0.
5 Repeat Step 4 for the four remaining digits,
www.insigniaproducts.com
using 2 for the second digit, 3 for the third digit,
4 for the fourth digit, and 5 for the fifth digit.

6 To check for other device codes, repeat Steps 1
through 5, substituting the device key for the
device you would like to check.
Using learning
This universal remote control includes a learning
feature (some models may not include this) so you
can add functions that are unique to your home
entertainment devices (such as VCR Tracking Up or
Down). However, there are some considerations to
keep in mind.
Precautions
• Your original remote controls must be in working
order for learning to work properly.
• Learned keys are mode-specific, so each one can
store a unique function for each mode.
• Do not use the following keys for learning: Device Keys, SET, or (record).
• Learning capacity is approximately 42 to 75 keys,
depending on the code being learned.
• Certain device functions are not learnable,
including multi-frequency types, some high
frequency functions, and other unusual formats.
• For optimum learning, avoid high levels of
ambient light such as natural sunlight or
energy-efficient fluorescent lights.
Note
Please have your original remote controls handy
before programming learning.
6 Repeat Steps 4 and 5 to program another key.
Once you have completed programming all the
keys you want, press and hold SET until the LED
blinks twice to save all data learned.
Deleting a single learning key
This process returns the key to its original
programming for the mode you select. You can also
delete learned programming by teaching a
different function to the key (see “Programming a
Learned Key” above).
Note
If more than 10 seconds pass between key presses,
the remote exits programming.
If the LED displays one long flash instead, either your
batteries are low, or the Insignia remote control has a
memory fault. In either case, the remote cannot learn
a new key.
To delete a single learned key:
1 Press the mode key that you wish to remove the
learned key from.
2 Press and hold SET until the LED blinks twice,
then release.
3 Enter 9 7 6. The LED blinks twice.
4 Press the key containing the learned function to
be deleted, twice. The LED blinks twice and
programming ends.
Deleting all learned keys in a specific mode
Programming a learned key
To program a learned key:
1 Place your Insignia remote control

Maintaining
• Do not use your TV in areas that are too hot or too
cold, because the cabinet may warp or the screen
may malfunction. Your TV works best in
temperatures that are comfortable to you.
• Storage temperatures are 32° to 122°F (0° to 50°C).
• Working temperatures are 41° to 104°F (5° to
40°C).
• Do not place your TV in direct sunlight or near a
heat source.
Cleaning the TV cabinet
Clean the cabinet with a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not
use the cleaning cloth that came with your TV to
clean the cabinet. If the cabinet is especially dirty,
moisten a soft, lint-free cloth in a weak detergent
solution, squeeze the excess moisture from the
cloth, then wipe the screen or cabinet with the
cloth. Use a clean cloth to dry the screen or cabinet.
Cleaning the TV screen
Clean the screen with the cleaning cloth or a soft,
lint-free cloth. Do not use the cleaning cloth to
clean other parts of your TV.
