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

Cleanin_ and Care
To avoid possible shock hazard be sure the TV is unplugged from the electrical outlet before cleaning. 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 cloths designed to get into the ridges of the TV screen. If interested, ask your dealer about the MAG4600 Projection TV Screen Cleaning Kit or
call our toll-frce Accessory Parts ordering number 1-800-292-6066.
Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or sponge dampened in a solution of cool clear water and a mild soap
or detergent. Use a clean dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.
Occasionally vacuum the ventilation holes or slots in the cabinet back.
Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring of the cabinet finish.
Repeat channel selection. Add desired channel numbers (ADD/DELETE CHANNELS control) into TV memory.I
Check CABLE TUNING control for correct position. I
This TV is equipped with protective circuitry that shuts the TV off in case of moderate [
power surges. Should this occur turn the "IV back on by pressing the POWER button ]
once or twice, or unplug and then replug the power cord at the AC outlet. I This feature is NOT designed to prevent damage due to high power surges such as those
caused by lightning, which is not covered by your warranty.

A/V Inputs * Connector plugs which allow the introduction of distinct audio and video signals into the TV from accessory
VCRs, camcorders, etc. These plugs bypass the normal tuner or RF/Antenna signal circuitry.
Pre-Amplifier * The control center of a hi-fi system. Not only amplifies source inputs, but also allows for source
selection, volume, tone, balance and all other controls that affect the sound.
Coaxial Cable * A single solid antenna wire normally matched
with a metal plug (F-type) end connector that screws (or pushes) directly onto a 75 Ohm input found on the Television or VCR.
Display * An on screen message or graphics that help the user operate and adjust his Television feature controls. See On Screen Displays (OSD).
Direct Audio/Video Inputs * Located on the rearof the TV these connectors (RCA phono type plug) are used for the input of audio and video signals. Designed for use with VCRs (or other accessories) in order to receive higher picture resolution and offer sound connection options.
Identify* Method by which a remote coua'ol searches and finds
an operating code for another product (such as a VCR or Cable Converter). Once the code has been "identified" then the TV remote can operate and send commands to the other product.
Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) * The broadcast
standardthat allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV picture.
On Screen Displays (OSD) * Refers to the wording or
messages generated by the television (or VCR) to help the user
with specific feature controls (color adjustment, programming,
etc.).
Menu * An on-screen listing of feature controls shown on the
Television screen that are made available for user adjustments.
Picture -In-Picture (PIP) * Term used when two pictures are
shown on the TV screen at the same time. The smaller PIP
picture is supplied by a VCR (or other tuner/video playback
some). The PIP picture can also be moved and swapped with
the TV's main screen picture.
Programming * The procedure of adding or deleting channel numbers into the Television's memory circuits. In this way
the Television "remembers" only the locally available or desired channel numbers and skips over any unwanted
channel numbers.
Remote Sensor Window * A window or opening found on the Television control panel through which infrared remote
control command signals are received.
Second Audio Program (SAP) * Another or additional audio channel provided for in the Multichannel Television Sound
(MTS) broadcast standard. The most frequently proposed use for SAP is the simultaneous bilingual broadcast of TV
program material.
Status * Allows the user to quickly confirm what channel number is currently being viewed. Status can also be used to
clear the Television of on screen displays or information (rather than waiting for the displays to "time out" or
automatically disappear from the screen).
S-Video Input * Allows direct connection of high-resolutiou video sources, such as a Super VHS videocassette recorder,
Laser Disc player, etc. Provides optimum picture resolution,
sharpness, and clarity.
Twin Lead Wire * The more commonly used name for the
two strand 300 Ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and
outdoor antenna systems. In many cases this type of antenna
wire requires an additional adapter (or balun) in order to connect to the 75 Ohm Inputterminals designed into the more
recent Televisions and VCRs.
Variable Audio Output * An adjustable audio output which
allows for volume variations at the source.
