safety. When the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, con­sult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particu-

larly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they
exit from the apparatus.

11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

12. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table

specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the app-

aratus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving

the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for

long periods of time.

14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is

required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such
as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled
or objects have fallen into apparatus, the apparatus has been
exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has
been dropped.

15. This product may contain lead and mercury. Disposal of these

materials may be regulated due to environmental considerations.
For disposal or recycling information, please contact your local
authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance: www.eiae.org

16. Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be serviced

some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges.

Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70­1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of
the mast 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 Figure below.

21. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects

do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through

• Install all batteries correctly, with + and - aligned as marked on
the unit.

• Do not mix batteries (old and new or carbon and alkaline, etc.).

• Remove batteries when the unit is not used for a long time.

Example of Antenna Grounding
as per NEC - National Electric Code

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.

ANTENNA CONNECTION

A

combination antenna receives normal
broadcast channels (VHF 2–13 and

UHF 14–69). Your connection is easy
because there is only one 75Ω (ohm)
antenna jack on the back of your TV,
and that’s where the antenna goes.

1

If your antenna has a round cable

(75 ohm) on the end, then you're ready
to connect it to the LCD TV Monitor.

If your antenna has flat, twin-lead
wire (300 ohm), you first need to

attach the antenna wires to the screws
on a 300- to 75-ohm adapter.

2

Connect the antenna (or adapter) to
the TV jack on the rear of the LCD
TV Monitor. If the end of the antenna
wire is threaded, screw it down finger
tight.

BASIC

CABLE TV CONNECTION

Y

our Cable TV signal into your home may
be a single, 75Ω (ohm) cable. If so, this

connection is very simple. Follow the step
below to connect your Cable TV signal to
your new LCD TV Monitor.

to the OUT jack (or TO TV or RF OUT)
of the Cable Box.

3

Connect the other end of the coaxial
cable to the LCD TV Monitor’s TV jack.

Screw it down finger tight.

4

Set the Channel 3/4 (or Output channel)
switch of the Cable Box to 3 or 4. Set
the TV to the same channel. When

watching TV programming, change channels

T

he Smart Lock feature is an integrated

circuit that receives and processes data
sent by broadcasters, or other program
providers, that contain program content advi­sories. When programmed by the viewer, a TV
with Smart Lock can respond to the content
advisories and block program content that
may be found objectionable (such as offensive
language, violence, sexual situations, etc.).
This is a great feature to censor the type of
viewing children may watch.

Smart Lock offers various BLOCKING
controls from which to choose:

Access Code - An Access Code must be set

to prevent children from unblocking question­able or censored programming set by their
parents.

Block Enable - After an access code has
been programmed, you can block program­ming depending on the received rating and
user setting.

Movie Ratings - Certain blocking options
exist which will block programming based on
ratings patterned by the Motion Pictures
Association of America.

TV Ratings - Just like the Movie Ratings,
programs can be blocked from viewing using
standard TV ratings set by TV broadcasters.

CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING concerning stationary images on the TV
screen: Do not leave fixed images on the screen for extended periods of time. This can cause uneven aging of the picture tube.
Normal use of the TV should involve viewing of programs that have constantly moving or changing images. Do not leave nonmov­ing images on screen for extended periods of time. Do not display the same images too frequently; if you do, subtle “ghost” images
can be left on the picture tube. Sources of stationary images may be Laser discs, video games, Compact Discs Interactive (CD-i),
or paused Digital Video Discs (DVDs) or videotapes.

Here are some common examples of stationary images:

• DVD menus list DVD content.

• Letterbox black bars appear at the top and bottom of the TV screen when a wide screen (16:9) movie is viewed on a TV with
standard (4:3) aspect ratio. This is available with some DVDs.

• Video game images and scoreboards

• Television station logos cause a problem if they are bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to
damage the picture tube.

• Stock market tickers may appear at the bottom of the TV screen if the TV programming covers this news.

• Shopping channel logos, pricing displays may be bright and may appear constantly during the show. These are usually in the
same location on the TV screen.

TV Location

•To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and an increased chance of TV failure, do not place the TV where tempera­tures can become excessively hot (for example, in direct sunlight or near a heating appliance).

• Allow a free flow of air around the TV.

Cleaning

•To avoid possible shock hazard, remove the TV’s power cord from the electrical outlet before cleaning.

• Regularly dust the TV with a dry, non-scratching duster.

• When cleaning the TV, take care not to scratch or damage the screen surface. Avoid wearing jewelry or using anything abra­sive. Do not use household cleaners. Wipe the 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 a sponge dampened in a solution of cool, clear water and a mild soap or
detergent. Use a clean, dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.

• Occasionally vacuum the vents on the rear of the TV.

• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet. They may blemish the cabinet permanently.

Ninety (90) Days Free Product Exchange

MAGNAVOX LIMITED WARRANTY

MAGNAVOX warrants this product against defect in material

or workmanship, subject to any conditions set forth as follows:

PROOF OF PURCHASE:

You must have proof of the date of purchase to exchange the
product. A sales receipt or other document showing the prod­uct and the date that you purchased the product as well as the
authorized retailer included, is considered such proof.

COVERAGE:

Warranty coverage begins the day you buy the product. For a
period of ninety (90) days from the date of purchase, if the
product is determined to be defective, Magnavox will exchange
the defective product with a new or renewed product, at its
option, at no charge. The replacement product is covered only
for the warranty period of the original product. When the war­ranty on the original product expires, the warranty on all
replaced products also expires. When it is necessary for you to
ship the product to Magnavox for exchange, you will pay the
shipping cost for shipment to Magnavox. Magnavox will pay the
shipping costs when returning a product to you.

Note: The exchange model supplied will be the most compara­ble one in Magnavox current inventory. Shipping of your prod­uct to Magnavox implies intent to follow the specified require­ments of the warranty and exchange program. Product received
by Magnavox cannot be returned. Replacement product can
only be sent if all warranty requirements are met. Failure to fol­low all requirements can result in delay of exchange process.

EXCLUDED FROM WARRANTY COVERAGE

Your warranty does not cover:

• Shipping charges to return defective product.

• Labor charges for installation or setup of the product, adjust­ment of customer controls on the product, and installation
or repair of antenna systems outside of the product.

• Product repair and/or part replacement because of improper
installation, connections to improper voltage supply, abuse,
neglect, misuse, accident, unauthorized repair or other cause
not within the control of Magnavox.

•A product that requires modification or adaptation to enable
it to operate in any country other than the country for
which it was designed, manufactured, approved and/or
authorized, or repair of products damaged by these modifica­tions.

• Damage occurring to product during shipping when improp­erly packaged or cost associated with packaging.

• Product lost in shipment and no signature verification of
receipt can be provided.

•A product used for commercial or institutional purposes
(including but not limited to rental purposes).

• Product sold AS IS or RENEWED.

WHERE WARRANTY EXCHANGE IS AVAILABLE:

Exchange is available in all countries where Magnavox officially
distributes the product. In countries where Magnavox does not
distribute the product, the local Magnavox organization will
attempt to exchange the product, although there may be a
delay if the appropriate product is not readily available or spe­cial customs processes are implied.

REPLACEMENT AS PROVIDED UNDER THIS WARRANTY IS
THE EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR THE CONSUMER. MAG­NAVOX SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF ANY
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY ON THIS PRODUCT.
EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY
OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ON THIS
PRODUCT IS LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE DURATION
OF THIS WARRANTY.

Some states do not allow the exclusions or limitation of inci­dental or consequential damages, or allow limitations on how
long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations or
exclusions may not apply to you. In addition, if you enter into a
service contract agreement with the MAGNAVOX partnership
within ninety (90) days of the date of sale, the limitation on
how long an implied warranty lasts does not apply.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may have other rights which vary from state/province to state/province.
