IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read before operating equipment
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with a dry cloth.
7. Do not block any of the ventilation openings. Install in
accordance with the manufacturers instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or ground­ing-type plug. Apolarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and third grounding prong. The wide blade or third prong are provided for your 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 particularly 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 app­aratus. 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 by qualified service personnel when:
A. The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged;
or
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the
appliance; or
C. The appliance has been exposed to rain; or D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or
exhibits a marked change in performance; or
E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure
damaged.
17. Tilt/Stability - All televisions must comply with recommend­ed international global safety standards for tilt and stability properties of its cabinet design.
• Do not compromise these design standards by applying excessive pull force to the front, or top, of the cabinet which could ultimately overturn the product.
• Also, do not endanger yourself, or children, by placing electronic equipment/toys on the top of the cabinet. Such items could unsuspectingly fall from the top of the set and cause product damage and/or personal injury.
18. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.
19. Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be located away from power lines.
20. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, 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 openings.
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.

FEATURES
Your new projection television and its packaging contain materials that can be recycled and reused. Specialized companies can recycle your product to increase the amount of reusable materials and minimize the amounts that need to be properly disposed.

End-of-Life Disposal
This Projection Television is capable of connecting to both the current analog television signals of today as well as interfacing with new, upcoming digital source playback products and devices. This TV includes multiple signal connectors (Component Video, S-Video, and Composite Video), which give you a variety of equipment playback options for dig­ital set-top boxes, satellite receivers, cable boxes, and other digital devices.
While there may exist some digital devices with connections not available on this television, you should be adequately prepared for the vast majority of products coming onto the digital consumer elec­tronics’ market. NOTE: You should always use the connection output on digital devices that gives the highest level of picture quality possible. As listed above, the Component Video (or Y P
B PR) input
delivers the best color and picture reproduction, fol­lowed by S-Video, and then Composite Video. In addition to these inputs, your television also includes the standard 75-ohm cable signal connector for use with antennas or analog cable boxes.

Audio/Video Jack Panel allows direct connections with VCRs, DVDs, or other accessory devices, providing quality TV picture and sound playback.
Audio Volume Leveler (AVL) Control keeps the TV 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.
AutoLock allows you to block the viewing of certain channels or programs with certain ratings if you do not want your children to view inappropriate materials.
Auto Program scans for all available channels from regular antenna or cable signals and stores only active broadcast stations in the TV’s memory.
Channel Edit allows you to add or delete channels from the list 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 Channel Scan (+,–) but­tons on your remote control.
Closed Captioning allows the viewer to read TV program dialogue or voice conversations as on-screen text.
Dynamic Noise Reduction (DNR) can help eliminate broadcast signal noise (“speckles” in the picture).
