Cleaning 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 scralch or damage the screen surl_ace (avoid wearing jewelry or using anything abrasive). Wipe the front screen with a clean cloth dampened with water. Use even, easy, vertical strokes when cleaning,

• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or sponge dampened in a solution of cool clear water. Use a clean dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces,

• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring of the cabinet finish.

Page 37

CoaxialCable•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 'l_levision or VCR.

Closed Caption • Broadcast standard which allows you to read the voice content of television programs on the TV screen. Designed to help the hearing impaired this feature uses onscreen "text boxes" to show dia-

logue and conversations while the TV program is in progress.

Direct Audio/Video Inputs • Located on the rear of the TV these con- nectors (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.

ldentit_ ° Method by which a remote control 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.

On Screen Displays (OSD) • Refers to the wording or messages gener- ated by the television (or VCR) to help the user with specific feature controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).

Menu ° An onscreen listing of feature controls shown on the 'l)levision screen that are made available for user adjustments.

Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) • The broadcast standard that allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV picture.

Programming ° The procedure of adding or deleting channel numbers into the Television's memory circtlits. In this way the 'l_levision

"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 "l_levision control panel through which infi-ared remote control com-

mand signals are received.

Setup Mode ° Automatic feature comrol settings made by the TVI Designed for first time setup and use, Settings for signal connections

(antenna or cable TV), plus channel program memory are held in the TV's memory (even if the set is unplugged and moved to a new loca-

tion.)

Second Audio Program (SAP) ° Another or additional audio channel

provided for in the Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) broadcast standard. The most fi-equently proposed use for SAP is the simultane-

ous bilingual broadcast of TV program material.

Status ° Allows the user to quickly confilm what channel number is currently being viewed. Stares can also be used to clear the 'l)levision

of on screen displays or inforoaation (rather than waiting for the dis- plays to "time out" or automatically disappear from the screen).

'lM'in 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 Input terminals

designed into the more recent Televisions and VCRs,
