Installation

Receiver Location

This unit is intended to be used with an optional stand or entertainment center. Consult your dealer for available options. Locate for
comfortable viewing. Avoid placing where sunlight or other bright light (including reflections) will fall on the screen.
Use of some types of fluorescent lighting can reduce remote control transmitter range.
Adequate ventilation is essential to prevent internal component failure. Keep away from areas of excessive heat or moisture.
To ensure optimum color purity do not position magnetic equipment (motors, fans, other speakers, etc.) nearby.

Optional External Equipment

The Video/Audio connection between components can be made with shielded video and audio cables. For best performance,
video cables should utilize 75 ohm coaxial shielded wire. Cables are available from your dealer or electronic supply store.
Before you purchase any cables, be sure you know what type of output and input connectors your various components
require. Also determine the length of cable you will need.

AC Power Supply Cord

CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, match wide blade of plug to wide slot of AC outlet and fully insert. Do not use this

(polarized) plug with a receptacle or other outlet unless the blade can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.

Safety Precaution

Please take safety precautions to
prevent the unit from falling over.
The unit may fall over during
earthquakes, or if someone stands on
or shakes the TV.

Remote Control Battery Installation

Requires two AA batteries.

1. Turn the Transmitter face down.
Remove top cover by pressing
down on marking and sliding cover
off in the direction indicated.

Helpful Hints:

For frequent remote control users, replace old
batteries with alkaline batteries for longer life.

Helpful Hints:

Whenever you remove the batteries, you may
need to reset the remote control infrared
codes. We recommend that you record the code

on page 49, prior to setting up the remote control.

2. Install the batteries as shown in
the battery compartment. (Polarity
+ or – must match the markings in
the compartment).

Two AA size

Precaution on battery use

Incorrect installation can cause battery leakage and corrosion that
will damage the remote control transmitter.

Observe the following precautions:

1. Batteries should always be replaced as a pair. Always use new
batteries when replacing the old set.

2. Do not combine a used battery with a new one.

3. Do not mix battery types (example: “Zinc Carbon” with “Alkaline”).

4. Do not attempt to charge, short-circuit, disassemble, heat or burn
used batteries.

5. Battery replacement is necessary when remote control acts
sporadically or stops operating the TV set.

Fixing to a wall

Use a strong rope or a chain (not included)
to fasten the TV firmly to a strong support
such as a wall or pillar.

3. Replace the cover and slide in
reverse until the lock snaps.

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.

BBE VIVA / BBE

The distinguishing feature of BBE VIVA is its maintenance of accurate audio imagery. Ordinary 3D surround systems force the
sound out to the left and right, affecting the center channel. As a result it may become hard to hear people's voices, or the
center audio may completely disappear. BBE VIVA reproduces vocals in music and voices in movies accurately and distinctly.

BBE VIVA This maintains a constant level of sound that is faithful to the original, producing

Hi-Fi 3D sound that cannot be obtained with other types of 3D Surround.

BBE Use special signal processing to accurately reproduce the "attack" of each

sound, in order to make it immediate and superbly faithful to the original,
while retaining its natural feel.

Operating peripheral equipment using the remote control

Infrared Codes Index

The remote control is capable of operating many brands of peripheral equipment. Refer to pages 50 and 51 for programming procedures.
Note: The remote control memory is limited and therefore some models may not operate. The remote control is not

designed to control all features available in all models.

Note: After entering the proper infrared code, press the desired Mode Selection Button on the remote control. Refer to

pages 16 and 47 - 48 for details on operating peripheral equipment using the remote control.

Infrared Remote Codes for Specific Components

Helpful Hint: Write down the code numbers for your components in the space provided below. This will serve as a

handy reference whenever you need to reprogram your remote control.

Manual de instrucciones

[Resumen]

Instalación de las pilas en el control remoto

Se necesitan dos pilas AA.

1. Ponga el control remoto con el
lado de los botones hacia abajo.
Retire la cubierta presionando
hacia abajo sobre la marca y
deslizándola en el sentido
indicado.

2. Instale las pilas como se muestra
en el compartimiento de las pilas.
(Las polaridades + y – deberán
coincidir con las marcas
correspondientes del
compartimiento).

Dos pilas tamaño AA

3. Vuelva a poner la cubierta y
deslícela hasta que quede
bloqueada.

Consejos útiles

A los usuarios que utilizan frecuentemente el
control remoto se les recomienda sustituir las

pilas viejas por pilas alcalinas que duran más.

Precauciones relacionadas con el uso de las pilas

La instalación incorrecta de las pilas puede causar fugas en las
mismas y corrosión, lo que dañará el control remoto.

Tenga en cuenta las precauciones siguientes:

1. Las pilas deberán sustituirse siempre en pares. Utilice siempre
pilas nuevas cuando sustituya las pilas viejas.

Consejos útiles

Siempre que retire las pilas, puede que necesite
volver a poner las claves del control remoto
de infrarrojos. Le recomendamos anotar la clave

de la página 49 antes de preparar el control
remoto.

2. No mezcle una pila usada con otra nueva.

3. No mezcle pilas de tipos diferentes (ejemplo: "carbono y cinc" con
"alcalinas").

4. No intente cargar, cortocircuitar, desarmar, calentar o quemar las
pilas usadas.

5. Las pilas tendrán que sustituirse cuando el control remoto funcione
esporádicamente o no pueda controlar el televisor.

Conexión del cable de la antena al terminal de entrada de RF

Conexión de la antena

• Para recibir correctamente los canales de VHF/UHF se necesita una antena externa. Para obtener la mejor recepción
se recomienda una antena exterior. El modo de antena deberá ponerse en TV.

• Cable de entrada desde antena doméstica

Conecte la antena doméstica a ANT1 del panel posterior del televisor. Seleccione el modo del televisor y ANT1 en el

menú SET UP. (El modo de televisión por cable ha sido prefijado en la fábrica. Los usuarios de antenas deberán
cambiar al modo del televisor y seleccionar ANT1 en el menú SET UP bajo Programación de canales.

Notas:

(1) Para obtener una imagen y un sonido de calidad óptima se necesita una antena, el cable correcto (coaxial de 75

ohmios) y la clavija de terminación correcta.

(2) Si se utiliza un sistema de antena comunitaria, tal vez necesite emplear una clavija y un cable de conexión correctos

entre el zócalo de antena de pared y su receptor de televisión.

(3) El centro de servicio de televisión de su localidad o su concesionario podrán ayudarle a obtener el sistema de antena

correcto para su zona particular y los accesorios necesarios.

(4) Cualquier tema relacionado con la instalación de la antena, la mejora de los sistemas o accesorios existentes requeridos

y los gastos incurridos son responsabilidad exclusiva de usted, el cliente.
