This product was designed and manufactured to meet strict quality and safety standards. There are, however, some installation and operation precautions which you should be particularly aware of.

1.Read Instructions - All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the appliance is operated.

2.Retain Instructions - The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.

3.Heed Warnings - All warnings on the appliance and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.

4.Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be followed.

5.Water and Moisture - The appliance should not be used near water - for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool, etc.

6.Carts and Stands - The appliance should be used only with a cart or stand that is recommended by the manufacturer.

6A. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination

to overturn.

6B. Tilt/Stability - All televisions must comply with recommended international global safety standards for tilt and stability properties of its cabinet design.

•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.

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

8.Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings; or, placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.

9.Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

10.Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the appliance.

11.Power-Cord Protection - Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords and plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.

12.Cleaning - The appliance should be cleaned only as recommended by the manufacturer.

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

14.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 mats and supporting structure grounding 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 Fig. below.

15.Non-use Periods - The power cord of the appliance should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time.

16.Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings.

17.Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:

A.The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or

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

C.The appliance has been exposed to rain; or

D.The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance; or

E.The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.

18.Servicing - The user should not attempt to service the appliance beyond that described in the operating instructions. All other servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.

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.

	SMART HELP
	Note: In the past the
	relationship between a TV
	screen’s width to height, or aspect
	ratio, has historically been 33%
	wider than the picture screen
	height (or a 4:3 aspect ratio). The
	widescreen format of your TV
	screen is nearly 80% greater than
	its measure height (which
	accounts for a 16:9 aspect ratio).
	The reason for the 16:9 aspect
	ratio screen is that it allows for the
	dramatic and lifelike viewing of
	original version movies and
	cinemas (similar to the type found
	in your local theaters). And the
	16:9 aspect ratio widescreen is
	also a good visual match for how
	our eyes work in a horizontally
	oriented field of view and action
	plane.

CLOSED CAPTION

Closed Captioning (CC) allows you to read the voice content of

television programs on the TV screen. Designed to help the hearing impaired this feature uses on-screen "text boxes" to show dialogue and conversations while the TV program is in progress.

1 Select CLOSED

CAPTIONING control.

With the FEATURES MENU on screen, move the RED highlight with the outer OK arrow OK buttons. Then press the center OK button to select the feature.

2 Press the OK arrow OK buttons to move the RED highlight. Press the center OK button to select (U) the desired Closed Caption mode - For Example: "ALWAYS ON" and "CAPTION 1".

CAPTION 1, 2, 3, 4:

dialogue (and descriptions) for the action on the captioned TV program shows on-screen. (See Important Note on this page.)

TEXT 1, 2, 3, 4:

often used for channel guide, schedules, or bulletin board information for CC programs.

3 After making your Caption mode selection, press the STATUS button to clear the TV screen. The selected Closed Caption mode will be active.

To cancel, set the Closed Captioned feature to OFF when finished.

SMART HELP

Remember. Broadcast stations will often use

spelling abbreviations, symbols, dropouts and other grammatical shortcuts in order to keep pace with the on-screen action. These type factors vary upon the source of the captioned text material and do not indicate a need for service on the part of the TV.

NOTE: Not all TV programs and product commercials are made for broadcast with Closed Caption (CC) information included. Neither are all Closed Caption modes (CAPTION 1-4; or TEXT 1-4) necessarily being used by a broadcast station during the transmission of a closed caption program. Usually "CAPTION 1" is the most used mode to view captioned material. Refer to your area's TV program listings for the stations and times of Closed Caption shows.

Have you ever fallen asleep in front of the TV only to have it

wake you up at two in the morning with a test pattern screeching in your ears? Well, your TV can save you all that trouble by automatically turning itself off.

1 Press the SLEEP button on the remote control (LCD Display Mode 1 screen - D6 button).

2 Press the SLEEP button repeatedly to pick the amount of time (15 minutes to 2 hours ahead) before the TV will turn itself off.

3 Press the STATUS button to clear the screen after you have set the time for the TV to turn off.
