FEATURES
* Manufactured under license from Dolby
Laboratories. “Dolby” and the double-D symbol £
are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories.
Alternate Channel (A/CH) button allows you to switch back and
forth between the currently viewed channel and the previously
viewed channel.
Automatic PhosphorAging Compensation (APAC) 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. Once 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 blur image retention.
Because APAC works in both the analog and digital modes, you
have excellent protection.
Audio/video jacks allow direct connections with VCRs and other
accessories for quality TV picture and sound playback. Component
video input jacks are provided for high-fidelity color and picture
resolution when using digital video source material, such as a DVD.
Audio Volume Leveler (AVL) control keeps the TV’s sound at an
even level. Peaks and valleys that occur during program changes or
commercial breaks are reduced, making for a more consistent, comfortable sound.
AutoChron automatically sets the right time of day and maintains
it with digital precision through brownouts, power failures, and even
Daylight Savings Time adjustments.
Incredible Surround enhances stereo programs by making the
sound broader and fuller.
Onscreen menu shows the TV controls and allows you adjust or set
those controls (can be viewed in American English, French, or
Spanish).
Standard broadcast (VHF/UHF) or cable TV (CATV) channel
capability, as well as advanced capability for high-definition video.
Three-line comb filter provides improved chroma/luminance
separation to the picture. Offering vertical-edge enhancement and
virtually no “dot crawl,” this filter easily supports the demands of
DVD players and other advanced high-resolution video sources.
AutoLock protects young children from objectionable programming
with V-chip technology.
Auto Picture allows you to push a button and adapt your TV’s
picture to various types of programs, such as sports, movies, and
multimedia (games).
Auto Sound allows you to select from three factory-set controls and
a personal control that you set according to your own preferences
through the onscreen Sound submenu. The three factory-set
controls—Voice, Music, and Theatre—enable you to tailor the TV
sound to enhance the particular programming you are watching.
Channel Edit allows you to add or remove channels from the list of
channels stored in the TV’s memory. Channel Edit makes it easy to
limit or expand the number of channels that are available to you
when you press the CH +/– buttons on your remote control.
Closed Captioning allows you to read TV program dialog or voice
conversations as onscreen text.
Auto Contrast helps you sharpen the picture quality by making the
contrast between the dark and bright picture areas more noticeable
as the image on screen changes.
High-definition component video inputs allow you to connect
High-definition signals to the TV (HD INPUT-AV 4 only). The
result is superb color purity, crisp color detail, and reduced color
noise. Your set provides separate HD inputs for YPbPr/RGB, as well
as horizontal and vertical sync.
Hi-fi stereo system, including a built-in audio amplifier and a twin
speaker system. The system enables you to hear stereo sound or
Second Audio Program (SAP) bilingual broadcasts when they are
available.

UNDERSTANDING AUTOLOCK
he AutoLock™ feature can help
T
parents control what their children
watch on TV. AutoLock™ does this by
using the content advisories sent by
broadcasters or other program providers.
After you program AutoLock™, it can
respond to the content advisories and
block programs that contain content that
you may consider objectionable —
offensive language, violence, or sexual
situations. You can also use AutoLock™
to block channels that you don’t want
your children to watch.
In this section, you’ll learn how to block
channels and programming that is not
rated, is unrated, or has no rating. You
will also find out how to turn these blocking
features on or off. Following on this page
are brief explanations of AutoLock™
terms and program ratings.
Terms
BLOCKING control — can be thought
of as the “master switch” for AutoLock™.
This control affects the settings you
have chosen for blocking programs
according to movie ratings or TV ratings,
or for blocking programs that have no
rating or are unrated. When the BLOCKING control is OFF, the blocking or censoring of programs is disabled. When the
BLOCKING control is ON, blocking
will occur according to the settings you
have chosen.
BLOCK UNRATED control — if set to
ON, blocks all unrated programs.
Unrated programming consists of the
kind of shows that the MPAA (Motion
Picture Association of America) or the
TV broadcasters have chosen not to rate.
NO RATING control—if set to ON,
blocks all programming with no content
advisory data.
Programming that has No Rating is not
encoded with any rating information
from the MPAA or the Parental
Guidelines. Any programming could fall
into this category.
BLOCK CHANNEL control—enables
you to block individual channels that you
don’t want children to see.
MOVIE RATINGS

General Information: Care and Cleaning
CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING Concerning Stationary Images on
the TV Screen:
Do not leave picture border bars or stationary
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 pictures with border bars or the
same stationary images more than 15 percent of your total
viewing in any one week. Sources of stationary images may be
broadcast channels, cable channels, satellite channels, digital
television boxes, DVD discs, laser discs, video games, CD-i
discs, videotapes, and others. Here are some examples of
stationary images (this is not an all-inclusive list; you may
encounter others in your viewing):
• Border bars—solid bars shown when viewing a standard (4:3)
picture and some widescreen movies on your widescreen
(16:9) TV
• DVD menus—listings of DVD disc content
• 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 in the tubes age at an
even rate. The result will be a TV picture that is evenly bright
over the entire screen.
PLACEMENT OF 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.
• Be sure to allow a free flow of air to and from the perforated
back cover of the set.
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, non-scratching 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.
Specially designed screen-cleaning kits are also available.
These kits contain anti-static cleaners and cloths designed to
get into the ridges of the TV screen. Purchase the kits at stores
that sell electronics. Or call our Customer Care Center at
1-800-531-0039.
• 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.

General Information: Index
GLOSSARY OF TELEVISION TERMS
Alternate Channel • The feature that allows you to toggle
between the last two channels viewed by pressing the A/CH
button on the remote control.
Audio/Video Inputs • Jacks (standard RCA), located on the rear
of the TV, used for the input of audio and video signals. These
jacks are designed for use with VCRs (or other accessories) to
receive higher picture resolution and offer sound-connection
options.
Auto Program • The feature that, when activated, scans for all
available channels from regular antenna or cable signals and
stores only active broadcast stations in the TV’s memory.
Channel Edit • The feature that allows you to add or delete
channels from the list of channels stored in the TV’s memory.
Channel Edit makes it easy to limit or expand the number of
channels that are available to you when you press the CH +/–
buttons on your remote control.
Closed Captioning • The broadcast standard feature that allows
you to read the voice content of television programs on the TV
screen. Designed to help the hearing impaired, Closed Captioning
uses onscreen text boxes to show dialogue and conversations
while a TV program is in progress.
Coaxial Cable • A single solid wire normally matched with a
metal plug (F-type) end connector that screws (or pushes)
directly onto a 75-ohm input found on the television or VCR.
Comb Filter • TV filter that removes distortion, resulting in a
sharper and purer color display. The comb filter addresses the
annoying cross-color distortion that may occur in TV broadcasts
when, for example, the presenter wears a striped or checked
jacket.
Component Video Inputs • Inputs that allow the separate
reception of blue, red, and luminance signals. These inputs
provide the highest possible color and picture resolution in the
playback of digital signal-source material, such as the kind
available from DVD players. Component video inputs allow for
improved bandwidth information not possible through composite
video or S-Video connections.
Composite Video Input •An input in which all the components
required for displaying the onscreen image are combined in one
signal.
Convergence • The technique used in color TV for bringing the
red, green, and blue color beams together so that they hit the same
part of the picture tube screen at the same time. This avoids color
fringes around images in the picture.
High-definition Television (HDTV) • High-resolution digital
television. HDTV is high-resolution digital television. It has
lifelike pictures, and with it films retain their original width,
enhancing the home theater experience.
Incredible Surround™ • False acoustic management of the
audio signal that produces a dramatic expansion of the wall of
sound that surrounds the listener and heightens overall viewing
pleasure.
Interlaced • A picture-scanning technique that improves the
appearance of onscreen motion. It also helps smooth jagged lines
that are sometimes seen on curved and angled surfaces in the
picture.
Menu • An onscreen list of feature controls available for you to
adjust or set.
NTSC • National Television Standards Committee format devised
in the 1940s for TV broadcast analog video signals (525 lines: 30
Hz).
Onscreen Displays (OSD) • The wording or messages generated
by the television (or VCR) to help you with specific feature
controls (color adjustment or programming, for example).
Progressive Scan •A picture-scanning technique that doubles the
number of picture lines, eliminating the flicker and providing
a jitter-free picture.
PTV • Projection Television. (Rear- and/or front-projection
design systems are available.)
Remote-control SensorWindow • The window or opening found
on the television control panel through which infrared remotecontrol command signals are received.
RF • Radio Frequency or modulated signal design used as the
carrier for television broadcasts.
Second Audio Program (SAP) • An additional audio channel
provided for in the Multichannel Television Sound (MTS)
broadcast standard. A monaural soundtrack included within the
recorded or video signal (usually containing a second language
translation for the displayed programming).
S-Video Input • Signal input that allows direct connection of
high-resolution video sources, such as a satellite receiver, DVD
player, S (Super)-VHS videocassette recorder, or video games.
Provides improved picture resolution, sharpness, and clarity.
480p • Digital picture format with 704 x 480 pixels, sent at 60
complete frames per second. This is the output format of
progressive-scan DVD players.
