IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

CAUTION:

Please read and retain for your safety.

Eiectricai energy can perform many useful functions. This TV set has been engineered and

manufactured to assure your personal safety. But improper use can result in potential electrical shock or tire hazards! !n order not to defeat the safeguards incorporated in this TV set. observe the following basic rules for its installation, use and servicing.

And also follow all warnings and instructions marked on your TV set.

INSTALLATION

1) Your TV set is equipped with a polarized AC line plug (one blade of the plug is wider than

the other).

(POLARIZED-TYPE)

This safety feature allows the plug to fit into the power outlet only one way. Should you be unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. Should it still fail to fit, contact your electrician.

2) Operate the TV set only from a power source as indicated on the TV set or refer to the operating instructions for this information, if you are not sure of the type of power supply to

your home,

to the operating instructions.

consult your TV set dealer or local power company. For battery operation, refer

3) Overloaded AC outlets and extension cords are dangerous, and so are frayed power cords

and broken plugs. They may result in a shock or fire hazard. Cali your service technician for replacement.

4) Do not allow anything to rest on or roll over the power cord, and do not place the TV set where power cord is subject to traffic or abuse. This may result in a shock or fire hazard.

5) Do not use this TV set near water — for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink,

or laundry tub. in a wet basement, or near swimming pool, etc.

6) If an outside antenna is connected to the TV set. be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code provides information with respect 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 requirements for the grounding electrode.

7) 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.

EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING

AS PER NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE

8) TV sets are provided with ventilation openings in the cabinet to allow heat generated during operation to be released. Therefore:

— Never block the bottom ventilation slots of a portable TV set by placing it on a bed, sofa,

rug, etc. — Never place a TV set in a “built-in” enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided. — Never cover the openings with a cloth or other material.

— Never place the TV set near or over a radiator or heat register.

9) To avoid personal injury;

— Do not place a TV set on a sloping shelf unless properly secured. — Use only a cart or stand recommended by the TV set manufacturer. — Do not try to roll a cart with small casters across thresholds or deep pile carpets. — Wall or shelf mounting should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a

mounting kit approved by the manufacturer.

USE

10) Caution children about dropping or pushing objects into the TV set through cabinet

openings. Some Internal parts carry hazardous voltages and contact can result in a fire or

electrical shock.

11) Unplug the TV set from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid or an aerosol

cleaner.

12) Never add accessories to a TV set that has not been designed for this purpose. Such

additions may result in a hazard.

Page 5

13) For added protection of the TV set during a lightning storm or when the TV set is to be left unattended for an extended period of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect

the antenna. This will prevent damage to product due to lightning storms or power line surges.

14) A TV set and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the TV set and cart combination to overturn.

SERVICE

15) Unplug this TV set from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions: A. When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed. B. if liquid has been spilled Into the TV set. C. If the TV set has been exposed to rain or water. D. If the TV set does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust

only those controls that are covered in the operating instructions as improper

adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work

by a qualified technician to restore the TV set to normal operation. E. If the TV set has been dropped or damaged in any way. F. When the TV set exhibits a distinct change in performance — this indicates a need for

service.

16) Do not attempt to service this TV set yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

17) When replacement parts are required, have the service technician verify in writing that the replacement parts he uses have the same safety characteristics as the original parts. Use of manufacturer’s specified replacement parts can prevent fire, shock, or other hazards.

18) Upon completion of any service or repairs to this TV set, please ask the service technician to perform the safety check described in the manufacturer’s service literature.

19} When a TV set reaches the end of it’s useful life, improper disposal could result in a

picture tube implosion. Ask a qualified service technician to dispose the TV set.

20) Note to CATV system installer.

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

Decoders are available separately. For best image quality, we recommend using a DTV Decoder which uses Component Video (Y, PB, PR) Output to connect to the television. The

diagram below shows how to connect a DTV Decoder with using the television’s Component Video-in jacks.

1) Connect Green cable out from the DTV Decoder “Y” Video Output, in to TV “Y” Component

input.

2) Connect Blue cable out from the DTV Decoder “PB” Video Output, in to TV “PB” Component input.

3) Connect Red cable out from the DTV Decoder “PR” Video Output, in to TV PR” Component

Input.

4) Connect White Audio cable out the DTV Decoder Left Audio Output, in to TV Left Audio

Input.

5) Connect Red Audio cable out the DTV Decoder Right Audio Output, in to TV Right Audio

Input.

Make sure you use the same numbered input for both the Component Input and Audio Input. For instance, if you use Component Input 2, also use Audio Input 2.

• Green, blue and red are the most common colors for Component Video cables. Some models may vary colors, please consult the user’s manual for your DTV Decoder for more information.

• Be careful not to confuse the red Component Video cable with the red audio cable, it is best

to complete one set of connections (Audio or Video) before starting the other to avoid

accidentally switching the cables.

and then tighten the 2 screws.

2) Connect the DTV decoder left audio output to the DIGITAL-IN left audio input.

3) Connect the DTV decoder right audio output to the DIGITAL-IN right audio input.

• The Digital-In terminal can only be used with lOSOi, 720p and 480p picture signals. Set the DTV decode Digital-Out terminal output setting to 10801, 720p or 480p. For detailed information, refer to the DTV decoder instruction manual, if you can not display the picture because your DTV decoder does not have a Digital-Out terminal output setting, use the component Video input (or the S-Video input or Video Input). (Refer to page 15) In this case

the picture will be displayed as an analog signal.

• The Digital-In terminal is not compatible with the picture signal of a personal computer.

• Use a DVi-D Single Link 19-pin cable (commercially available) in order to digitally connect

the television with a DTV decoder.

If 480p signals (640x480 or 720x480) are displayed on the screen, the horizontal balance may

be slightly shifted, in cases such as this, the horizontal balance can be adjusted by accessing

“DIGITAL-IN” in the INITIAL SETUP Menu. (Refer to page 41.)

TV-Y is Appropriate for All Children. Programs are created for very young viewers

and should be suitable for all ages, including children ages 2 - 6.

TV-Y7 is for Older Children. Most parents would find such programs suitable for

children 7 and above. They may contain some mild fantasy violence or comedic violence, which children should be able to discern from reality.

Programs with the following Ratings are designed for the entire

audience. TV-G stands for General Audience. Most parents would find these programs

suitable for all age groups. They contain little or no violence, no strong language, and little or

no sexual dialog or situations.

TV-PG Parental Guidance Suggested. May contain some, but not much, strong

language, limited violence, and some suggestive sexual dialog or situations. It is recommended

that parents watch these programs first, or with their children.

TV-14 Parents Strongly Cautioned. Programs contain some material that may be

unsuitable for children under the age of 14 including possible intense violence, sexual situations, strong coarse language, or intensely suggestive dialog. Parents are cautioned against unattended viewing by children under 14.

TV-MA Mature Audiences Only. These programs are specifically for adults and may

be unsuitable for anyone under 17 years of age. TV-MA programs may have extensive V, S, L, or D.

MPAA (Motion Picture Assoc, of America) Ratings

NR - Not Rated.

This is a film which has no rating. In many cases these films were imported from countries

which do not use the MPAA ratings system. Other NR films may be from amateur producers who didn't intend to have their film widely released.

“NR” Programming may contain all types of programming including children's programming, foreign programs, or adult material.

G - General Audience, in the opinion of the review board, these films contain nothing in

the way of sexual content, violence, or language that would be unsuitable for audiences of any

age.

PG - Parental Guidance. Parental Guidance means the movie may contain some

contents such as mild violence, some brief nudity, and strong language. The contents are not

deemed intense.

PG-13 - Parents Strongly Cautioned. Parents with children under 13 are cautioned

that the content of movies with this rating may include more explicit sexual, language, and violence content than movies rated PG.

R - Restricted. These films contain material that is explicit in nature and is not

recommended for unsupervised children under the age of 17.

NC-17 - No One Under 17. These movies contain content which most parents would

feel is too adult for their children to view. Content can consist of strong language, nudity, violence, and suggestive or explicit subject matter.

X - No One under 18. inappropriate material for anyone under 18.

Many broadcasts today contain more than one audio signal, in addition to stereo and mono

soundtracks, some broadcasts also contain a second soundtrack in a different language. Use

MTS to select the audio signal you wish to listen to.

• Select STEREO for your normal listening needs. With this setting programs broadcast in stereo will be played by the TV in stereo. Programs broadcast in mono sound only will be played in mono sound.

• Select MONO if you are receiving a weak signal. Mono sound will usually give clearer sound

from weak signals than will stereo. With this setting all broadcasts, mono and stereo, will be played in mono sound only by the television.

• Select SAP (Second Audio Program) to listen to an alternate soundtrack (if one is being

broadcast). Alternate soundtracks may be the dialog of a program in a different language or additional information about a program topic. A logo will appear at the beginning of a program with SAP to inform you that an alternate soundtrack is available.

Some Sound Advice

You can tell if a program is broadcast in stereo by the position of the ON AIR arrow in the

MTS menu. Unfortunately, some cable companies may “squash” the transmission of stereo

programs because they have only monaural equipment, if you are connected to a cable system, the sound is at the mercy of that cable company. If they broadcast only monaural signals, your television

broadcast in stereo.

Fortunately, most programs that are broadcast in stereo are aired on the major television

networks, if you connect your TV to an antenna instead of cable, and set the tuner mode in the AUTO TUNER SETUP to “AIR” instead of “CABLE” you will be able to pick up stereo

broadcasts in stereo.

Aspect

Your television can display images in one of four aspect ratios. The aspect ratio is the ratio of

image width to height as displayed on the screen. The AV-56WP30 or AV-48WP30 has a “wide screen” with an aspect ratio of 16:9.

A traditional television picture has an aspect ratio of 4:3. Since you will likely view programs

from several different ratios, this feature will help you adjust your picture image to match, giving

you the best possible picture quality.

Press the Aspect button on the remote control. The menu shown (left) will appear. To select the aspect ratio you wish to view, press the Aspect button to move down the list. Each press

will move to the next ratio, the onscreen display will change automatically. The aspect ratios

are:

PANORAMA - With this ratio a norma! 4:3 aspect picture is

stretched to fit the dimensions of the 16:9 aspect screen.

CINEMA - This ratio “zooms in” on the center part of a 4:3

aspect picture, blowing it up to fill the 16:9 screen.

FULL - This is the ratio to use when watching 16:9

High-Definition broadcasts.

REGULAR - The Regular ratio is used when you want to watch a

4:3 broad cast or recorded program without modifying the original picture to fit the dimensions of your 16:9 screen. The 4:3 picture

will fill the AV-56WP30’s or AV-48WP30’s screen from top to

bottom, while black bars will appear to fill up the remaining space along the picture’s sides. The 4:3 picture will be centered within the boundaries of the 16:9 screen.

When you have selected the ASPECT ratio you wish to view, either press Enter or wait a few seconds for the ASPECT menu to disappear. You may change the ASPECT at any time.

Adjusting CRT Color Convergence-

This TV has three color projection tubes: one for red. green, and blue. When mixed together in the proper portions, the output of these three color tubes can produce any color. To produce these colors, however, the beams must be precisely aligned over each other so that the colors can be mixed. The produce of aligning these picture beams is called “convergence”.

• This adjustment will be needed only when the colors of the characters/iines are separated and lack in distinction.

• if not, please don’t perform the adjustment.

Colors may become separated after the TV has been moved, or over a long period of time if regularly subjected to low levels of vibrations. If the colors become seperated, please perform

the adjustments below again.

Cable Box Note:

The 2-Tuner Multi Screen function may not operate when used with certain cable boxes. This

is because while some models of cable boxes may receive up to 181 channels, and may only

send the signal from one channel to your television. (Please refer to diagram on page 14).

For the 2-Tuner Multi screen function to operate correctly, it must have access to all available

channels. Since the television is receiving the signal from only one channel from the cable

box, it is impossible for the 2-Tuner Multi screen function to display a second, different

channel. Because there are many different models of cable boxes in use today, if you are

having problems operating your 2-Tuner Multi screen function feature with your cable box, we recommend you contact your local cable company for connection advice.

Caring for the Cabinet

Normally, light dusting with a soft, non-scratching duster will keep your TV clean. If you wish to wipe down the television, first unplug it. Then wipe gently with a soft cloth,

slightly moistened with water. You can add a few drops of mild liquid detergent to the water to

help remove spots of oily dirt.

DO NOT allow liquid to enter the TV through the ventilation slots. DO NOT use strong or abrasive cleaners on the TV. DO NOT spray liquids or cleaners directly on the TV’s surface. DO NOT rub or scrub the TV harshly. Wipe the set gently with a soft cloth.

Caring for the Screen

The screen of the AV-56WP30 or AV-48WP30 is treated with an electrostatic-proof coating. When it gets dirty, wipe it gently with a soft doth, if the screen is very dirty, wipe it down with a

cloth dipped in a diluted kitchen cleaner and thoroughly wrung-out. Then wipe immediately after with a clean, dry cloth.

Do not apply alcohol, organic solvents (like acetone), acidic or alkaline cleansers to the screen.

These will remove the coating layer and cause discolorations.

Do not push or hit the screen. This could cause scratches on the screen surface and image

distortions.
