IMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS

Read before operating equipment

1. Read these instructions.

2. Keep these instructions.

3. Heed all warnings.

4. Follow all instructions.
S. Do not use this apparatus near water.

6. Clean only with a dry cloth.

7. Do not block any of the ventilation openings.

Install in accordance with the manufacturers 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 third grounding prong. The wide blade or third
prong are provided for your safety. When 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.

[ 1. 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 appara-
tus. 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 un-
used 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 apparatus, the appara-

tus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate
normally, or has been dropped.

IS. Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be

serviced by qualified service personnel when:
A. The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged;

B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the

appliance;
C. The appliance has been exposed to rain

D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or

exhibits a marked change in performance;

E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure dam-

aged.

16. Tilt/Stability - All televisions must comply with
recommended international global safety standards for tilt

• Do not compromise these design standards by applying
excessive pull force to the front, or top, of the cabinet

which could ultimately overturn the product.
° Also, do not endanger yourself, or children, by placing

electronic equipment/toys on the top of the cabinet. Such
items could unsuspectingly fall from the top of the set and

cause product damage and/or personal injury.

17. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be
mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the
manufactu rer.

18. Power Lines -An outdoor antenna should be located away
from power lines.

19. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna is
connected to the receiver, 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 Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA
No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper

grounding of the mast and supporting structure, ground-
ing of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of

grounding connectors, location of antenna-discharge unit,
connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for

the grounding electrode. See Figure below.

20. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that
objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclo-

sure through openings.

21. Battery Usage CAUTION - To prevent battery leakage
that may result in bodily injury, property damage, or

damage to the unit:

• Install all batteries correctly, with + and - aligned as
marked on the unit.

• Do not mix batteries (old and new or carbon and
alkaline, etc.).

• Remove batteries when the unit is not used for a long
time.

Note to the 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.

_) Basic connections to the TV

Your integrated digital TV automatically decodes and
displays the four basic DTV picture resolution standards.

- SDTV (Standard Definition TV) are broadcast as 480i
(480-line interlaced) or 480p (480-line progressive scan)

video.

- I-IDTM (High-Definition TV) are broadcast either in the

1080i or 720p formats, always with a widescreen picture.

Note: Progressive scan video (p) is more like what you see in a
movie theater. Images are much more distinct, free of flicker

and motion is smoother.

Your TV has an integrated HDTV tuner, which receives and
decodes terrestrial ATSC and unscrambled cable (QAM)

signals and displays them. There are two ways to obtain

HDTV content:

- through a cable provider

- through an antenna.

Cable box

Watching cable TV programs that don't

require the use of a cable box.

Since you've connected the cable TV signal
directly to the TV's tuner, you can also watch

unscrambled programs by simply tuning to
the desired channel: however, you must first use
Auto program to store available channels in the

Note: This connection will not supply stereo sound to the TV. The
reason is that the RF output on a cable box - labeled TO T_ OUT
or OUTPUT for example - will not send a stereo signal to the tuner
(VHF/UH_) input on a TV.

= Cable box with A/V outputs

• Connect the incoming cable TV signal (!) to a signal
splitter (not supplied). The signal splitter enables you to avoid
having to use the TO TV jack on the back of the cable box.
This jack will not supply stereo sound to the TV.

Note: 'four cable box may have a different label for the TO

• Connect a coaxial cable (not supplied) to a connector on

Through an antenna, you can watch any HDTV programs

that are broadcast in your area without paying fees.

If you're not sure what HDTV programming is available in
your area, contact your local content provider or your

local electronics retailer.
Broadcasters are currently transitioning from analog to digital

TV. This means that a given broadcaster will have two
channels on the air, one analog and one digital.

= Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS)

Satellite systems offer many of the same premium channels

available on cable systems, often at a lower price. To view

these channels, you'll need to install a small dish antenna

outside your home.
The two main DBS systems, DirecTV and DishNetwork,
require separate, proprietary set-top receiver boxes to
decode their signals and send them to your digital TV set.
These boxes may include a digital TV tuner for off-air DTV

broadcasts.
Satellite broadcasters also provide major local channels,

depending on the market in which you live.
DBS also provides service in areas not covered by cable
because they are in rural areas or other areas not passed by a
cable line.

DBS also allows you to watch pay-per-view events.

O To connect accessory devices, see Cover and Connection.
O Refer to the bottom of the set (Model label) for the

correct operation voltage.

Insert the power cord into the wall socket.
Consult your local dealer if your main power supply voltage is
different than that indicated for the TV. Never place the TV
on top of the (AC) cord. Placing the TV on top of the AC cord

could cause a fire or electric shock.

_) Remote control:

Insert the two supplied AAA batteries.
The batteries supplied do not contain the heavy metals mercury
and cadmium. Please determine and comply with local
regulations when disposing of depleted batteries.

O Turn the TV on:

Press the power switch r_ at the front side of the TV. An
