AFETY INFORMATION
No naked flames, such as lighted candles, should be placed on top on the TV or in the vicinity. Do not place your TV set under direct sunlight or heat. Leave at least 15cm around each side of TV set to allow for proper ventilation. Avoid placing you set (e.g. near the window) where it is likely to be exposed to rain or water. No objects filled with liquids should be placed on top of 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.
• Do not mix batteries : (OLD and NEW or CARBON and ALKALINE, etc.).
• Remove batteries when the remote is not used for a long time.

Product highlights
100Hz Digital Scan
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 or 480p signal for­mat. In order to 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.
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
APAC 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.

1
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 color 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.
2
Insert the aerial plug firmly into the ANTENNA IN 75socket at the rear of the set.
3
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.
4
Remove the cover of the battery com­partment on the remote control. Insert the two batteries supplied (Type R6-1.5V).
The batteries supplied do not contain the heavy metals mercury and cadmi­um. Nevertheless, in many countries exhausted batteries may not be dis­posed of with your household waste. Please check on how to dispose of exhausted batteries according to local regulations.
See the battery caution statement on page 2.
Note : This remote control functions with TVs that use the RC5 signalling standard.
5
Switch the TV on : Press the mains power switch on the front of the TV. If the Standby key is lighted, press the CH +/– keys, digit keys, or the Power key on the remote control. Or press the Standby or CH keys on the front of the TV.

USING THE MENUS :PICTURE
Using Manual Converge : Converge Red/Blue
Your projection TV has three color projection tubes : one for red, one for green, and one for blue. When mixed in proper proportion, the beams of light coming from the tubes can produce any color. To cre­ate a clear picture, however, these color beams must be precisely aligned. This alignment is called convergence. Bumps and vibrations, moving the set, or the presence or magnetic fields can cause the color beams to become improperly aligned, or misconverged, resulting in a fuzzy picture. The Manual Converge controls allow you to adjust picture convergence.
Note : Allow the TV to warm up for 20 minutes before adjusting conver­gence.
1
Select MANUAL CONVERGE in the PICTURE menu.
2
Press the cursor down and select either CONVERGE RED or CONVERGE BLUE.
Note : If various images in the picture have red outlines, select CONVERGE RED. If various images in the picture have blue outlines, select CONVERGE BLUE.
3
Use the cursor right, left, up, or down to adjust the cross hair until the color outline is gone. The adjustment is auto­matically saved in the TV’s memory when you exit the adjust mode.
4
Press the MENU key to return or the m key to switch the menu off.
Check the TV picture. If any color outlines remain around the images, use the MULTIPOINT RED (for red outlines) or MULTIPOINT BLUE (for blue outlines) control. See the next page for instructions for using those controls.

CONNECTING PERIPHERAL EQUIPMENT
AV4 Digital High-definition Inputs
When you have digital equipment with 1080i or 480p signal output (60Hz) or 576p signal output (50Hz), connect it to the AV 4 inputs on your TV. Examples of such equipment are digital set-top boxes and pro­gressive-scan DVD players.
Connecting to AV4
Connect digital equipment with component video output (usually labeled Y-Pb-Pr) or with RGB output (phono-type connectors) to the AV4 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 AV 4 sockets are compatible with some digital equipment hav-
ing 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 either AV4 :
• For connections to either AV4, be sure the TV’s color-space setting matches the output (Y-Pb-Pr or RGB) of the digital equipment you have connected to the AV4 inputs. See instructions for setting the TV’s color space on page 33.
• See the handbook for the high-definition equipment.
• If you notice scrolling images, wrong colors or no color, no picture or even combinations of these on your screen, check to see if the connec­tions have been done properly.

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 exam-
ples 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 over time. 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.
C
LEANING
• 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.
T
IPS
• Do not shift or move the set around when it is switched on. Unevenness in colour in some parts of the screen may occur.

CARE,CLEANING, AND TIPS
36
BEFORE CALLING SERVICE
TV remote control does not work
• Check that the batteries are installed correctly.
• Replace the batteries, if necessary.
• Clean the remote control and the remote-sensor window on the TV.
• Be no farther than 6 meters from the TV when using the remote control and aim the remote toward the TV’s remote-sensor window.
• If the remote still will not work, use the keys on the TV.
No power
• Check that the TV’s power cord is plugged into the mains socket. If there is still no power, discon­nect the plug. Wait for 60 seconds and reinsert the plug and then switch on the TV again.
• See if the outlet is controlled by a wall switch.
• If you are using an AC power strip, be sure the fuse on the power strip is not blown.
No picture
• Check the antenna connection at the rear of the TV to see if it is properly connected to the TV input terminal.
• The broadcast station may be experiencing difficulty. Try another channel.
• Adjust the contrast and brightness settings or select another picture setting with the Smart Picture key on the remote control.
• If using peripheral equipment through the A/V inputs, be sure it is properly connected.
• Be sure you have selected the correct signal source for viewing.
• If you are attempting to view a picture from a progressive-scan-capable DVD player connected to the AV4 sockets, be sure you have switched the DVD player to progressive-scan mode.
• If you are using an HD receiver, be sure its output is set correctly (to HD or SD), based on the connection to the TV you have made.
Snowish picture and noise
• Check the antenna connection.
Colour patch (unevenness)
• Switch off the TV by the mains power key. Wait for 20 minutes before switching on again.
• Be sure you have made connections correctly.
• If you have connected digital equipment to the AV4 sockets, check the colour-space setting on the equipment or TV and change the setting on either if necessary.
• Check to be sure the TV is not placed too near speakers or magnetic objects.
• Adjust the TV’s convergence.
Horizontal dotted lines
• This may be caused by electrical interference from appliances such as hair dryers or vacuum cleaners or other sources such as neon lights. Turn off the appliance or move the TV.
One white line across the screen
• Switch the TV off immediately and consult a qualified service person.
Good picture but no sound
• Increase the volume.
• Check that the TV is not muted; press the H key on the remote control.
• When no signal is detected, the TV automatically switches off the sound. This is proper operation and does not indicate a malfunction.
• Check the transmission system’s sound settings on the set.
Good sound but poor colour or no picture
• Adjust the contrast and brightness setting or select another picture setting with the Smart Picture key on the remote control.
• Check the transmission system’s colour settings on this set.
Poor picture
• Poor picture quality sometimes occurs when an S-VHS camera or camcorder has been connected to the side panel (AV3) of the TV when another peripheral is connected to AV1 or AV2 simultane­ously. In this case, switch off one of the other peripherals.
Double images or “ghost” images
• High-rise building or hills may be obstructing reception. Try using a highly directional antenna to
improve the picture.
NICAM sound distortion (crackling noise)
• This could be due to antenna siting or reflected signal.
• Switch over to “MONO” by pressing the I-II key on the remote control.
If your problem is not solved, switch the TV off and then back on again once. Never attempt to repair a defective TV yourself. Check with your dealer or call a TV technician.
