CAUTION: A video source (such as a video game, Compact Disc Interactive - CDI, or TV information channel) which shows a constant non-moving pattern on the TV screen, can cause picture tube damage. When your TV is continuou_Jy used with such a source the pattern of the non-moving portion of the game (CDI, e::c.)could leave arl image permanently on the picture tube. When not in use, turn the video source OFF.

i Regularly alternate the use of such video sources with normal "IV viewing.

, Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 1 minute, then reinsert plug into outlet

and push POWER button again.

I• Check to be sure outlet is not on a wall switch.

Check antenna connections on the rear of the TV. Are they properly secured to the antenna plug on the "IV?

Check the CABLE CHANNEL TUNING control for correct position. Check PICTURE SOURCE control for correct position. VCR/AUX1 or AUX2 position without a signal source will result ina blank screen.

Check the VOLUME buttons. Check the MUTE button on the remote control. Check the INTERNAL "IV SPEAKER ON/OFF control for the correct position. If attempting auxiliary equipment hook-ups, check audio jack connections; and that the auxiliary equipment is on and in the proper operating modes.

Check TV-VCR-CBL "'System" buttons on the remote. Press the remote's T___V.System button to send commands to the TV.

• When cleaning the TV screen take care not to scratch or damage the screen surface (avoid wearing jewelry or using anything abrasive- do not use household cleaners). Wipe the front screen with a clean cloth dampened with water. Use even, easy, vertical strokes when cleaning.

• Specially designed screen cleaning kits are also available which contain anti-static cleaners_ and brushes designed to get into the ridges of the TV screen. If interested, ask your dealer about the SBS4100 Projection "W Screen Cleaning Kit or call our toll-free Accessory Parts ordering number 1-800-292-6066.
