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

6B. Tilt/Stability - All televisions must comply with recommended inter-

national global safety standards for tilt and stability properties of its cabinet design.

• Do not compromise these design standards by applying exces-

sive 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 elec-

tronic 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.

7. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

8. Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, 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 installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.

9. Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

10. Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the appliance.

11. Power-Cord Protection - Power supply cords should be routed so 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 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 mats 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 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 openings.

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 appliance 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 servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.

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.

SMART HELP

Note to Parents - it isn't

possible to unlock or defeat your Censor Access Code without changing to a new code number. So if your Code number changes, and you didn't change it yourself, then you will know that someone has altered the code and the blanked out channel has been viewed.

NOTE:Your TV left the factory with the Parental Code set to "0000". If you are using your TV and the Parental Control for the first time, and don't want to SETUP a new Access code number, you can use the "0000" number to block channels - see next page. The "0711" Parental Code (shown on this page) is given as a default or way to reset the Code when the current Access number is not known.

nother new area available to parents for the censoring of

program material is through the TV Guidelines and Movie Ratings system. Program Content Advisory data will soon be contained within the broadcast signals of received TV programs. When setup by the parent or viewer, the TV can respond to transmitted advisory data by blocking out or denying access to TV shows (based on whether the program meets or exceeds the limitations you select as viewable). The TV program can then only be viewed by entering the correct and current Parental Code Access number.

The Content Advisory system uses both “Movie Ratings” and a “Parental Guidelines” form of censoring. Refer to the following page sections for explanations on the different Rating system levels and their uses.

Select the CONTENT ADVI-

of this page). “CONTENT ADVISORY” Menu

screen appears. Parental Guidelines, Movie Ratings and other blocking control items are ready for selection and use.

STOP

Note: Please remember that a valid and current Access Code number will be required in the setup and use of the TV’s “Content Advisory” system. Review the previous SETUP CODE section on how to obtain a valid Parental Access Code number before attempting to make adjustments within the Movie Ratings and Parental Guidelines system.

NOTE: In normal Content Advisory system operation the TV screen will display a message when programming is blocked by a Movie Rating, Parental Guideline, or Blocking Option control feature. Entering the correct ACCESS CODE number will unblock all the blocked Content Advisory Rated channels until the TV is turned Off. The blocked Advisory Ratings will be back in place when the TV is turned back On again.

encode any kind of content advisory ratings with their programming, or they can actually choose to encode pro- grams to be “unrated.” The TV Blocking Options allow the viewer to block any program without content advisory data with the use of its “NO RATING INFORMATION” control. And to block programs that are encoded as “unrated” with its “UNRATED PROGRAMMING” control option.

Since the reception of Content Advisory data can take a few seconds, you may want to use the “CHANNEL CHANGE” option to be sure no viewing is allowed during blocked program channel changes.

Note: The monaural version of Surround Sound may be louder at the rear set of speakers than what is normally heard with true stereo signal Surround Sound, but this is normal.

This TV is equipped with protective circuitry that shuts the TV off in case of moderate power surges. Should this occur turn the TV back on by pressing the POWER button once or twice, or unplug and then replug the power cord at the AC outlet. This feature is NOT designed to prevent damage due to high power surges such as those caused by lightning, which is not covered by your warranty.

CAUTION: A video source (such as a video game, Compact Disc Interactive - CDI, or TV information channel) which shows a constant non-moving pattern on the TV screen, can cause picture tube damage. When your TV is continuously used with such a source the pattern of the non-moving portion of the game (CDI, etc.) could leave an image permanently on the picture tube. When not in use, turn the video source OFF. Regularly alternate the use of such video sources with normal TV viewing.

• Check antenna connections on the rear of the TV. Are they properly secured to the antenna plug on the TV?

• Check the CABLE TUNING control for correct position.

• Check PICTURE SOURCE control for correct position ANTENNA; AUX 1/AUX2 VIDEO; or AUX Y PB PR position without a signal source connection will result in a blank screen.

• Check the CLOSED CAPTIONS control. Some TEXT modes could block the screen.

• Check batteries. Replace with AAA Heavy Duty (Zinc Chloride) or Alkaline batteries

if necessary.

• Clean the remote and the remote sensor window on the TV.

Cleaning and Care

• 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 an optional Projection TV Screen Cleaning Kit or call our toll-free Accessory Parts ordering number 1-800-851-8885.

• 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

Audio/Video 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.

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 TV feature controls. See On Screen Displays (OSD).

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.

LED * Light Emitting Diode or indicator. Menu * An on-screen listing of feature controls shown on the TV

screen that are made available for user adjustments. Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) * The broadcast standard

that allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV picture. On Screen Displays (OSD) * Refers to the wording or messages

generated by the TV to help the user with specific feature controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).

Pre-Amplifier * The control center of a hi-fi system. Not only amplifies source inputs, but also allows for source selection, volume, tone, balance and all other controls that affect the sound.

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

PTV * Projection Television (Rear and/or Front projection design systems are available.)

Remote Sensor Window * A window or opening found on the TV control panel through which infrared remote control command signals are received.

RF * Radio Frequency or modulated signal design used as the carrier for television broadcasts.

Second Audio Program (SAP) * Another or 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.)

Status * Allows the user to quickly confirm what channel number is currently being viewed. Status can also be used to clear the TV of on-screen displays or information (rather than waiting for the displays to “time out” or automatically disappear from the screen).

S-Video Input * Allows direct connection of high-resolution video sources, such as a Super VHS videocassette recorder, Laser Disc player, etc. Provides improved picture resolution, sharpness, and clarity.

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 connect to the 75 Ohm Input terminals designed into the more recent Televisions and VCRs.

Variable Audio Output * An adjustable audio output which allows for volume variations at the source.

From one to two years from the day of purchase, you pay for the replacement or repair of all parts except the cathode ray tube and the “Clear-Vu” lens, and for all labor and transportation charges. After two years from the day of purchase, you pay for the replacement or repair of all parts except the “Clear-Vu” lens (which is guaranteed against manufacturer’s defects for the life of the product), and for all labor and transportation charges.

All parts, including repaired and replaced parts, are covered only for the original warranty period. When the warranty on the product expires, the warranty on all replaced and repaired parts also expires.

WHAT IS EXCLUDED?

Your warranty does not cover:

BEFORE REQUESTING SERVICE...

Please check your owner’s manual before requesting service. Adjustments of the controls discussed there may save you a service call.

TO GET WARRANTY SERVICE...

Repair must be performed by an authorized service center or a factory service center. If you do not live near a factory service center, contact your dealer. If your dealer is an authorized service center, he will arrange repair. If your dealer is not an authorized service center, he will direct you to the authorized service center engaged by him to service the products he sells.
