Installation
Receiver Location
Locate at a comfortable distance for 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.
How to use the LCD stand
Adjust the stand to your desired angle. The stand angle can be adjusted between 5 ° forward and 10 ° back, and rotated 20 ° to the right / left.
Optional External Equipment
The Video / Audio connection between components can be made with shielded video and audio cables. For best performance, antenna 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’ll need.
For optimum quality picture
When the LCD is exposed to light from outdoors or lighting fixtures, high-contrast pictures may not be displayed clearly. Turn off florescent lamps near the LCD and place in a location not exposed to outdoor light.
How to hang the LCD Television on the wall
This LCD Television is for use only with the following optional accessory. Use with any other type of optional accessories may cause instability which could result in the possibility of injury.
