Important Information Regarding the Use of Video Games, Computers, or Other Fixed Image Displays
WARNING: The marking or retained image on the picture tube resulting from viewing a fixed image is not an operating defect and as such is not covered by Warranty.
The television is designed to display constantly moving images on the screen. Continuous viewing of stationary images such as letterbox pictures on standard screen TVs (with top/bottom bars), nonexpanded standard (4:3) pictures on wide screen TVs (with side bars shown on each side of an image), stock market report bars (ticker running at the bottom of the screen), video game patterns, fixed scoreboards, bright station logos, on-line (Internet) or repetitive computer style patterns should be limited.
The extended use of fixed image program material can cause permanent picture tube damage, shown as a “shadow image” viewable on normal programs. This type of irreversible picture tube deterioration can be limited by performing the following steps:
•Limit the display of fixed image program material to no more than 15% of total viewing time per week.
•Turn the power off when not in use.
WARNING: KEEP UNNEEDED SMALL PARTS AND OTHER OBJECTS OUT OF THE REACH OF SMALL CHILDREN. THESE OBJECTS CAN BE ACCIDENTALLY SWALLOWED. ALSO, BE CAREFUL ABOUT PACKAGING MATERIALS AND PLASTIC SHEET.

Digital TV - Set-Top Box (DTV-STB) or DVD Connection
This television is capable of displaying 1080i and 480p DTV signals when connected to a DTV tuner set-top-box (STB). In order to view DTV programming, the STB must be connected to the component video inputs (Y,PB,PR) of the television. A DTV signal must be available in your area. Select the output of the STB to either 1080i or 480p.
This television also utilizes a progressive scan doubler, which de-interlaces the NTSC signal and progressively scans the image. This allows you to sit close to the TV and not see the thin black horizontal lines (venetian blind effect) associated with interlaced TV pictures.
Use this diagram to connect the DTV-STB or DVD player to the back of your television.

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) input connection
About HDMI
HDMI is the first all digital consumer electronics A/V interface that supports several uncompressed standards, enhanced and high definition video formats as well as existing multi-channel audio format. One jack supports both
video and audio information. The HDMI/HDCP1 input can
be connected to an EIA/CEA 8612 compliant consumer electronic device, such as a set top box or DVD player equipped with an HDMI or DVI output connection. By inputting a High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) high definition picture source to the HDMI terminal of this TV, high definition pictures can be displayed on the screen in their digital form. The HDMI input terminal is not intended to be used with personal computers. This TV is compatible with 1080i, 480p and 480i formats. Select the output of the connecting device to match that of the TV.
Notes:
1.HDMI/HDCP = High Definition Multimedia Interface / High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection.
2.EIA/CEA-861 Profiles compliance covers profiles for transmission of uncompressed digital video including high bandwidth digital content protection.
