♦ No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on top of the TV or in the vicinity.
♦ Do not place your TV set under direct sunlight or heat.
♦ Leave at least 5 cm around each side of TV set to allow for proper ventilation.
♦ Avoid placing your set (e.g. near the window) where it is likely to be exposed to rain or water.
♦ No objects (such as vases) filled with liquids should be placed on top the TV so as to avoid dripping or splashing of liquids on the set.
Disconnect mains plug when:
♦ the red light below the TV screen is flashing continuously
♦ a bright white line is displayed across the screen
♦ cleaning the TV screen (never use abrasive cleaning agents; use a slightly damp chamois leather or soft cloth)
♦ a lightning storm is occurring
♦ the set is left unattended for a prolonged period.
Never attempt to repair a defective TV yourself. Always consult a skilled service person.
Battery Usage CAUTION
To prevent battery leakage which may result in bodily injury or damage to the remote:
♦ Install ALL batteries correctly, + and - as marked on the remote control.

Product Highlights

♦ Progressive Scan - double the visible picture lines for better resolution
♦ 100Hz Digital Scan eliminates flicker and line jitter for stable picture
♦ HDTV Monitor - HDTV is the latest and best television signal available
♦ Saphlon™ Screen - better picture and scratch resistance
Technology made simple
♦ Active Control measures signal to produce best picture
♦ APAC - Automatic Phosphor Aging Compensation
Conventional TV creates a picture by scanning 50 times per second (50Hz). This frequency can be detected by the human eye in the
form of a field flickering picture. 100Hz sets scan 100 times per second, eliminating the field flickering.
Progressive Scan
A picture frame consists of two fields: the field with the odd lines (field A) and the field with the even lines (field B). Instead of sending
field A to the screen first, followed by field B, the fields A and B are written at one time. In one second, a full image is created using the
maximum resolution. At this speed, the human eye perceives a sharper picture with no line structure.
HDTV Monitor
HDTV Display Capability (1080i). HDTV monitors enable you to view high-definition or enhanced-definition TV programming in
the 1080i or480p signal format. In orderto do so, the TV must be connected via its component video or RGB inputs to a set-top
box, which is set to operate in the DTV mode. A DTV signal must be present in your area and the set-top box must be tuned to
the proper channel. An external over-the-air antenna may be required. Another option is HDTV broadcast satellite service. Stunning
realism in both picture and sound are delivered!
Saphlon™ Screen
Saphlon™ Screen technology is built with materials and processes that deliver more brightness and picture contrast. It guards against
most scratches and fingerprints and eliminates the glare associated with a separate protective screen.
Auto IntelliSense™ Focus
Sensors in the TV scan a predefined test pattern and readjust the signal on the CRTs to assure that red, green and blue are well
aligned.
Active Control
With over 3,000 picture adjustments per minute, this ‘proactive control system' continuously analyzes incoming video signal qualities
for Dynamic Noise Reduction and sharpness and then automatically corrects them to be like the settings you previously selected in the
picture menu.
APAC
ABAC is designed to minimize the effects of image retention from stationary images on the screen. Because both analog sources (cable
TV and DVD) and digital sources (HD and progressive scan DVD) have different aspect ratios (4:3, 16:9, 21:9, etc.), the picture on a
digital television may have black bars on the sides or top and bottom. When black bars are detected in either the 4:3 or 16:9 viewing
mode, APAC automatically shifts the television picture pixel-by-pixel, just enough to soften image retention. APAC works in both the
analog and digital modes, so it provides excellent protection.

Installing the TV
O The major benefit of this projection television is its large
viewing screen. To see the large screen at Its best, test various
locations In the room to find the optimal spot for viewing.
Be sure to allow a minimum of 15 cm of space around the
TV.
To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet colour changes, and
Increased chance of set failure, do not place the TV where
temperatures can become excessively hot - for example. In
direct sunlight or near a heating appliance.
Magnetic fields, such as those of external speakers, may cause
the picture to distort If the speakers are placed too close to
the television. Move the magnetic field source away from the
TV until there Is no picture distortion.
Q Insert the aerial plug firmly Into the ANTENNA IN 75Q
socket at the rear of the set.
o Insert the mains plug In the wall socket. Refer to the back
of the TV set for the correct operation voltage. Consult
your local dealer If your main supply Is different. To prevent
damaging the mains (AC) cord, which could cause hazard, do
not place the TV on the cord.
Do not place
the TV in direct
sunlight or
15 cm near a heating
^^ appliance.
ANTENNA IN 75Q

Using Teletext (if provided)
Many TV channels broadcast information via teletext. Each
channel that broadcasts teletext transmits a page with information
on how to use its teletext system. Look for the teletext page with
the main index (usually p. 100).
Depending on the TV channel, teletext is transmitted in different
systems. The colours used in the options line correspond with the
colour keys of your remote control.
About Teletext
Easy Text considerably reduces the waiting time (on condition
that the teletext broadcast of the particular TV channel is received
for at least half a minute) by:
♦ a direct selection of previous and following pages that are in
transmission and of the pages referred to in the options line at
the bottom of the teletext screen;
♦ a habit watcher list: frequently used pages are put automatically
in a list of preferred pages so that they are immediately
available;
♦ the precapturing of the page numbers referred to in the
Enter the desired page number with the digit keys.
The page counter seeks the page or the page appears
immediately when the page number has been stored in the
memory.
A message appears when you have entered a nonexistent or incorrect
page number. Page numbers beginning with 0 or 9 do not exist.
Choose another number.
With the option line
Use the colour keys - which correspond to the coloured options
at the bottom of the screen - to select the desired subject.
If the option line is not on the screen, press the selected colour
key TWICE.

are available.
The other subpages can be selected In two ways:
With the cursor left/right
The other subpage numbers appear In white as soon as the
transmission has found them. They are stored In the memory so
that they are available while the teletext page Is on screen.
Use the cursor left/right to select the previous or the following
subpage.

Connecting Peripheral Equipment
You can connect a wide range of video and audio equipment
to your TV in various ways. This page and the next one provide
an overview of signal compatibilities and the types of equipment
you can connect to the sockets. Connection examples follow on
subsequent pages. As necessary, also refer to the handbook for
peripheral equipment.
Overview: Standard Inputs/Outputs
O antennain 75Q socket
- compatible with the broadcast standard In your area. Use
to connect radio-frequency (RF) signals from VHF/UHF
antennas or a cable system.
Q S-VIDEO (super video) sockets
- compatible with 4801 signals. Use to connect peripherals
having Super VHS (S-VHS) outputs, such as VCRs, DVD
players, laser-disc players, video-game players, satellite
receivers or other equipment.
- compatible with 480I signals. Use to connect equipment
having component video outputs, such as DVD players,
laser-disc players, video-game players, satellite receivers or
other equipment. Use the INPUT-AV 1 L(eft) and R(lght)
- use to connect digital equipment with a 1080l/480p (60Hz)
signal output, such as digital set-top boxes or DVD players
with progressive-scan capability. You can connect equipment
with YPbPr component video or RGB outputs to the AV3
sockets. H and V Sync connections may or may not be
required for RGB connections. Use the AV3 L(eft) and
R(lght) AUDIO sockets for sound connections.
See the handbook for the digital equipment you are
connecting.

AV3 Digital High-definition Inputs
When you have digital equipment with 1080i on480p signal
output (60Hz), connect It to the AV3 Inputs on your TV.
Examples of such equipment are digital set-top boxes and
progressive-scan DVD players.
Connecting to AV3
Connect digital equipment with component video output (usually
labeled Y-Pb-Pr) or with RGB output (phono-type connectors) to
the AV3 Inputs for video and audio left and right. Also connect to
the H and V SYNC Inputs on the TV If required for your digital
equipment.
Note: The AV3 sockets are compatible with some digital equipment
having RGB outputs with “sync on green" or RGB with “separate H
and V sync." Output standards for digital equipment, however, may
vary by manufacturer. No industry standards have been established
for HD television RGB signal systems, timing, synchronization, and
signal strengths. If the digital equipment you want to connect to your
TV offers both component video and RGB outputs, component video
is the suggested connection to use. See the handbook for the digital
equipment.
Notes regarding connecting to AV3:
♦ For connections to AV3, be sure the TV's colour-space setting
matches the output (Y-Pb-Pr or RGB) of the digital equipment
you have connected to the AV3 Inputs.

♦ If you notice scrolling images, wrong colours or no colour, no picture
or even combinations of these on your screen, check to see if the
connections have been done properly.
Setting the AV3 Colour Space
The term colour space refers to how colours are defined and
appear on your TV. When making connections to the AV3
socket, you will need to be sure the TV's colour space Is set to
match the output of the peripheral you have connected.

Care, Cleaning and Tips
WARNING Concerning Stationary Images on the TV Screen:
Do not leave stationary or “letterbox” images on screen for extended periods of time. This can cause uneven
picture-tube aging.
Normal use of the TV should Involve the showing of pictures that contain constantly moving and changing Images that fill the screen. Be
careful not to leave nonmoving Images on screen for extended periods of time or to display the same Images on screen too frequently,
because subtle ghost Images can be left on the picture tubes. Avoid showing the same stationary Images more than 15 percent of your
total viewing In any one week. Sources of stationary Images may be DVD discs, laser discs, video games, CD-I discs, videotapes, digital
television boxes, broadcast channels, cable channels, satellite channels and others.
Here are some examples of stationary Images (this Is not an all-inclusive list; you may encounter others In your viewing):
♦ DVD menus - listings of DVD disc content.
♦ “Letterbox” black borders - black bars shown along the edges of the picture when a widescreen (16:9) movie Is played on TV.
♦ Video-game images and scoreboards.
♦ Television station logos - present a problem If they are bright and stationary; moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to
cause uneven aging of the picture tube.
♦ Stock-market tickers - presented at the bottom of the TV screen.
♦ Shopping channel logos and pricing displays - bright and shown constantly or repeatedly In the same location on the TV screen.
All picture tubes age with use, with their light output diminishing overtime. But by maintaining normal use—mixing television picture
types - you will create conditions for the tubes to age at an even rate. The result will be a TV picture that Is evenly bright over the
entire screen.
Placement of the TV
♦ See page 4.
Cleaning
♦ To avoid possible shock hazard, be sure the TV Is unplugged from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
♦ Regularly dust the TV with a dry, nonscratching duster to keep the TV clean.
♦ 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 front 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 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 ventilation holes or slots In the back cover of the set.
♦ Never use thinners. Insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring of the
cabinet finish.
Tips
♦ Do not shift or move the set around when it is switched on. Unevenness in colour In some parts of the screen may occur.
