Important Safety Cautions

When any unusual situation occurs, turn off the power supply at once and remove
the plug from the wall outlet. Contact a qualified service department in your local
area.

Do not expose this to rain or spattering liquids. Do not use this product near water ­for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet
basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like. Do not use immediately after
moving from a low temperature to high temperature environment, as this causes
condensation, which may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.

Heat sources-Keep the product away from heat sources such as radiators, heaters, stoves
and other heat generating products (including amplifiers).
Requirement of environment temperature:

o o o o

0 C~50 C for storage; 5 C~40 C for working

The vents and other openings in the cabinet are designed for ventilation. Do not
cover or block these vents and openings since insufficient ventilation can cause
overheating and/or shorten the life of the product.
Do not place the product on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface, since they can
block ventilation openings.
This product is not designed for built-in installation; do not place the product in an
enclosed place such as a bookcase or rack, unless proper ventilation is provided
or the manufacturer's instructions are followed.

Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners
or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

Do not place the product on an unstable trolley, stand, tripod or table. Placing the
product on an unstable base can cause the product to fall, resulting in
serious personal injuries as well as damage to the product. Use only a trolley,
stand, tripod, and bracket or table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with
the product.

1

When relocating the product placed on a trolley, it must be moved with the utmost
care. Sudden stops, excessive force and uneven floor surfaces can cause the
product to fall from the trolley.

The power cords must be routed properly to prevent people from stepping on them
or objects from resting on them. Check the cords at the plugs and product. Power­supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or
snagged by items placed upon or against them. Pay particular attention to cords at
doors, plugs, receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.
If the power cord or the plug is damaged contact a qualified service department for
service.

High Voltage exists in this TV set. Do not remove the cover.
In case the product needs replacement parts, make sure that the service person
uses replacement parts specified by the manufacturer, or those with the same
characteristics and performance as the original parts. Use of unauthorized parts
can result in fire, electric shock and/or other danger.

For added protection for this television equipment during a lightning storm, or
when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the
wall outlet and disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage to the equipment
due to lightning and power-line surges.

The LCD panel used in this product is made of glass. Therefore, it can break when
the product is dropped or impacted upon by other objects. Be careful not to be
injured by broken glass pieces in case the LCD panel breaks.

Don't try to push anything into the cabinet or place any vessel with water on the TV
set.

Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or convenience receptacles on other
equipment as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

OUTDOOR VHF/UHF ANTENNA CONNECTION (ANTENNA NOT INCLUDED)

Follow the instructions for the type of antenna system you intend to use. If using Cable or satellite, see
the next page.

Combination VHF/UHF
Antenna (Single 75 Ohm cable

or 300 Ohm twin-lead wire)

Connect the 75 Ohm cable from
combination VHF/UHF antenna
to the antenna jack.

OR

If your combination antenna has
a 300 Ohm twin-lead wire, use a
300-75 Ohm matching
transformer (NOT SUPPLIED).

Connect the UHF twin-lead wire
to a combiner (NOT SUPPLIED).
Connect the VHF twin-lead to a
300-75 Ohm matching
transformer (NOT SUPPLIED).
Attach the transformer to the

FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO SCRAMBLED CABLE TV SERVICE OR SATELLITE

FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO UNSCRAMBLED BASIC CABLE TV SERVICE

WITH SCRAMBLED PREMIUM CHANNELS

If you subscribe to a satellite service or a cable TV service which requires the use of a converter/
descrambler box, connect the incoming 75 Ohm coaxial cable to the converter/descrambler box. Using
another 75 Ohm cable, connect the output of the converter/descrambler or satellite box to the antenna jack
on the TV. Follow the connections shown below. Set the TV/VCR to the output channel of the
converter/descrambler or satellite box (usually 3 or 4) and use the converter/descrambler or satellite box to
select channels.

If you subscribe to a satellite service or a cable TV service in which basic channels are unscrambled and
premium channels require the use of a converter/descrambler box, you may wish to use a signal splitter
and an A/B switch box (available from the cable company or an electronic supply store). Follow the
connections shown below. With the switch in the "B" position, you can directly tune any nonscrambled
channels on your TV. With the switch in the "A" position, tune your TV to the output of the
converter/descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the converter/descrambler box to tune
scrambled channels.

Cable (CATV)/satellite connections

This TV has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a Cable TV converter box.
Some Cable TV companies offer "premium pay channels" in which the signal is scrambled. Descrambling these
signals for normal viewing requires the use of a descrambler device which is generally provided by the cable
company.

FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO BASIC CABLE TV SERVICE

For basic cable service not requiring a converter/descrambler box,
connect the CATV 75 ohm coaxial cable to the VHF/UHF jack on the
rear of the TV.

Connecting the Video/Audio equipment

Composite Video signal connection

You can connect the unit to a DVD or VCR to enjoy playback with high quality picture and sound.
Please refer to the instruction manual of the equipment to be connected.

Note: Composite video is the most common used signal, but the picture quality

is not as high as S-video.

S-Video is a signal format which transfers the color and brightness of the picture with higher quality than a
Composite connection.The S-Video signal connection is recommended to produce the best picture.

Connect the composite video signal terminal on the TV to the output of AV equipment through composite cable.
If you select the video signal, please set the input signal source of LCD TV to AV1/AV2 mode.

S-VIDEO Signal Connection

Connect the S-video terminal on the TV to the output of AV equipment using a S-video cable.
If you select S-video signal, please set the input signal source of LCD TV to SVIDEO mode.

LCD Display panel information

The marking or retained image on the LCD panel resulting from fixed image use is not an operating defect and
as such is not covered by Warranty. This product is not designed to display fixed image patterns for extended
periods of time.

Note:

Important Information Regarding Use of Video Games, Computers, Captions or Other Fixed Image
Displays.

The extended use of fixed image program material can cause a permanent "shadow image" on the LCD panel.

This background image is viewable on normal programs in the form of a stationary fixed image. This type of
irreversible LCD panel deterioration can be limited by observing the following steps:

A. Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum viewing level.

B. Do not display the fixed image for extended periods of time.

C. Turn the power off when not in actual use.

Cleaning and Maintenance

To clean this unit, wipe with a soft, dry cloth.

If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth dipped in a soap and water solution or a weak detergent
solution.

• Use eyeglass cleaner to remove stubborn dirt from the LCD.

• Never use alcohol, paint thinner or benzine to clean this unit.

• Before using a chemically treated cloth, read the instructions that came with the cloth carefully.

CAUTION :

If water or similar substances get inside the monitor via the liquid crystal panel surface, a malfunction may
result.
