unstable cart, stand,
or table. The
television may fall,
causing serious injury
to a child or adult, and
serious damage to
the television.
• Slots and openings in the sides, back, and
bottom are provided for ventilation, to ensure
reliable operation of the television, and to
protect it from overheating.
These openings must not be blocked or
covered. The openings should never be
blocked by placing the television on a bed,
sofa, rug, or other soft surface. This television
should never be placed near or over a
radiator or heat register.
This television should not be placed in a
built-in installation, such as a bookcase,
unless proper ventilation is provided.
• This television should be operated only from
the type of power source indicated on the
marking label. If you are not sure of the
power supplied to your home, consult your
television dealer or local power company.
• This television is equipped with a polarized
alternating-current line plug (a plug having
one blade wider than the other). This plug fits

the polarized plug.
• Do not allow anything to rest on the power
cord, and do not locate this television where
the cord may be stepped on.
• Follow all warnings and instructions marked
on the television.
• If an outside antenna or cable system is
connected to the television, be sure the
antenna or cable system is g rounded so as to
provide some protection against voltage
surges and built-up static charges. Article
810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with
regard to proper grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in
wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of
grounding conductors, location of
antenna-discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and requirements for
the grounding electrode.

• An outside antenna system should not be
located in the vicinity of overhead 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.
• For added protection for this television during
a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended
and unus ed for long period s of ti me , u npl ug i t
from the power outlet and disconnect it from
the antenna or cable system. This pre vents
damage to the television due to lightning and
power line surges.
• Do not overload wall outlets and extension
cords, because overloading can cause a fire
or electric shock.
• Never push objects of any kind into this
television through slots in the case, as they
may touch dangerous voltage points or short
out parts that could result in a fire or electric
shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the
television.
• Do not attempt to service this television
yourself, because opening or removing
covers may expose you to dangerous
voltages or other hazards. Refer all servicing
to qualified service technicians.
• Unplug this television from the wall outlet and
refer servicing to qualified service
technicians under the following conditions:
• When the power cord or plug is damaged
or frayed.
• If liquid has been spilled into the
television.
• If the television has been exposed to rain
or water.
• If the television 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 often
requires extensive work by a qualified
technician to restore normal operation.
• If the television has been dropped or the
case has been damaged.
• When the television exhibits a distinct
change in performance.
• When replacement parts are required, be
sure the service technician has used
replacement parts specified by the
manufacturer that have the same
characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire,
electric shock, or other hazards.
• Upon completion of any service or repairs to
this television, ask the service technician to
perform routine safety checks to determine
that the television is safe to operate.
Note to cable television system installer
This reminder is provided to call the cable
television system installer’s attention to Section
820 40 of the NEC which provides guidelines f or
proper grounding and, in particular, specifies
that the cable ground shall be connected to the
grounding system of the b uilding, as close to the
point of cable entry as practical.

Notes
Installing batteries in the remote control
Before using the remote control, you must install
batteries. Use two AAA size batteries (not
supplied). The batteries may last about one year
depending on how much the remote control is
used. For best performance , we recommend the
batteries should be replaced on a yearly basis,
or when the remote operation becomes erratic.
Do not mix old and new batteries or different
types.
• Never connect the AC plug to other
than the specified voltage (120V
60 Hz). Use the attached power cord
only.
• If the polarized A C cord does not fit into
a non-polarized A C ou tlet, do not file or
cut the blade. It is y our respo nsibili ty to
have an electrician replace the
obsolete outlet.
• If you cause a static discharge when
touching the television and the
television fails to work, unplug the
televisi on from th e AC outlet, then plug
it back in. The television should work
normally.
2 Install two AAA batteries (not supplied).
3 Replace the battery compartment cover.
Battery precautions
Follow these precautions when using batteries in
this remote control:
• Use only the size and type of batteries
specified.
• Make sure to follow the correct polarity when
installing the batteries as indicated in the
battery compartment. Reversed batteries
may damage the device.
• Do not mix different types of batteries
together (such as alkaline and carbon-zinc)
or old batteries with fresh ones.
• If the remote is not to be used for a long
period of time, remove the batteries to
prevent damage or injury from possible
battery leakage .
• Do not try to recharge batteries that are not
intended to be recharged. These batteries
can overheat and rupture (follow battery
manufacturer's directions).
Connecting to an antenna
If you are using an indoor or outdoor antenna,
follow the instructions that correspond to your
antenna system. If you are using a cable
television service, see “Connecting to cable
television” on page 6.

a signal splitter and an A/B switch box (a v ailable
from the cable television company or an
electronics supply store). Follow the connections
shown above. With the switch in the B position,
you can directly tune any nonscrambled
channels on your television. With the switch in
the A position, tune your television to the output
of the converter/descrambler box (usually

converter/descrambler box to tune scrambled
channels.
Connecting to other equipment
The exact arrangement you use to interconnect
various video and audio components to the
television is dependent on the model and
features of each component. Check the owner's
manual provided with each component for the
location of video and audio inputs and outputs.
The following connection diagrams are offered
as suggestions. Y ou may need to modify them to
