SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - Read before operating equipment

This product was designed and manufactured to meet strict quality and
safety standards. There are, however, some installation and operation
precautions which you should be particularly aware of.

1. Read Instructions - All the safety and operating instructions should

be read before the appliance is operated.

2. Retain Instructions - The safety and operating instructions should

be retained for future reference.

3. Heed Warnings - All warnings on the appliance and in the operating

instructions should be adhered to.

4. Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be

followed.

5. Water and Moisture - The appliance should not be used near water

- for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub,
in a wet basement or near a swimming pool, etc.

Carts and Stands - The appliance should be used only with a cart or

6.

stand that is recommended by the manufacturer.

6A.

Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a

7.
wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or

8.

position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For exampie,

the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar

surface that may block the ventilation openings; or, placed in a
built-in instailation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede

the flow of air through the ventilation openings.

An appliance and cart combination should be moved
with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven
surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination
to overturn.

Heat - The appiiance should be situated away from heat sources

such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.

Power Sources - The appliance shouid be connected to a power

10.

supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as

marked on the appliance.

Power-Cord Protection - Power supply cords should be routed so

11.

that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed

upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords and
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from

the appliance.

12. Cleaning - The appliance should be cleaned only as recommended

by the manufacturer.

13. Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be located away from

power lines.

14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna is connected to

the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to pro
vide 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 mats
and supporting structure grounding of the lead-in wire to an anten
na discharge unit, size of grounding connectors, location of anten
na-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and require

ments for the grounding electrode. See Fig. below.

15. Non-use Periods - The power cord of the appliance should be

unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of

time.

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

not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through open
ings.

17. 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 appli

ance; 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 appiiance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.

18. Servicing - The user should not attempt to service the appliance

beyond that described in the operating instructions. All other servic
ing should be referred to qualified service personnel.

Note to the CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to cail the

CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that pro
vides 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.

• To avoid possible shock hazard be sure the TV is unplugged from the electrical outlet before cleaning.

• When cleaning the TV screen 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 which contain anti-static cleaners and cloths designed to get
into the ridges of the TV screen. If interested, ask your dealer about the MAG4600 Projection TV Screen Cleaning Kit or
call our toll-free Accessory Parts ordering number 1-800-292-6066.

• 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 cabinet back.

• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring
of the cabinet finish.

Glossary to Television Terms

Coaxial Cable ♦ A single solid antenna 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.

Display * An on screen message or graphics that help the user
operate and adjust his Television feature controls. See On
Screen Displays (OSD).

Direct AudioA^ideo Inputs * Located on the rear of the TV

these connectors (RCA phono type plug) are used for the input
of audio and video signals. Designed for use with VCRs (or
other accessories) in order to receive higher picture resolution
and offer sound connection options.

Identify* Method by which a remote control searches and finds
an operating code for another product (such as a VCR or Cable
Converter). Once the code has been "identified" then the TV
remote can operate and send commands to the other product.

Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) * The broadcast stan
dard that allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV
picture.

Menu * An on-screen listing of feature controls shown on the

Television screen that are made available for user adjustments.

On Screen Displays (OSD) * Refers to the wording or mes
sages generated by the television (or VCR) to help the user with
specific feature controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).

Picture -In-Picture (PIP) * Term used when two pictures are
shown on the TV screen at the same time. The smaller PIP
picture is supplied by a VCR (or other tuner/video playback
source). The PIP picture can also be moved and swapped with
the TV’s main screen picture.

Programming * The procedure of adding or deleting channel
numbers into the Television’s memory circuits. In this way
the Television “remembers’ ’ only the locally available or
desired channel numbers and skips over any unwanted chan

nel numbers.
Remote Sensor Window * A window or opening found on

the Television control panel through which infrared remote
control command signals are received.

Second Audio Program (SAP) * Another or additional audio
channel provided for in the Multichannel Television Sound
(MTS) broadcast standard. The most frequently proposed use
for SAP is the simultaneous bilingual broadcast of TV pro
gram material.

Status * Allows the user to quickly confirm what channel

number is currently being viewed. Status can also be used to

clear the Television of on screen displays or information

(rather than waiting for the displays to “time out’’ or automati

cally disappear from the screen).

Twin Lead Wire * The more commonly used name for the
two strand 300 Ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and
outdoor antenna systems. In many cases this type of antenna
wire requires an additional adapter (or balun) in order to con
nect to the 75 Ohm Input terminals designed into the more
recent Televisions and VCRs.

You must have proof of purchase to receive warranty service. A sales
