The

triangle is a warning
sign alerting you of important instructions accompanyingthe product.
Caution:
Maintain electrical safety. Powerline-operated equipment or accessories connected to this unit should bear the UL listing mark or CSA certification mark on the accessory itself and should not have been modified so as to defeat the safety features. This will help avoid any potential hazard from electric shock or fire. If in doubt, contact qualified service personnel.
Your TV operates on 120
v&s,
60 Hz AC power (normal house power) and has a polarized AC plug. Because one blade of the plug is wider than the other, the plug fits into the wall socket only one way. Do not defeat the safety feature of this plug. If you need an extension cord, make sure it is polarized.
Caution:
To prevent electric shock, do not use the polarized plug on this TV with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless both blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure. Match wide blade of plug to wide slot, fully insert.

Unpack TV and accessories.
The accessories that came packed with your TV include two remote controls, six AAA batteries, antenna adapter, four wing nuts, and a VCR shelf.

2 Extend back cover.
Your projection TV has been specially designed with a collapsible back cover. This design makes it easier for you
to move the TV through doorways because the collapsed
back makes the TV narrower. After the TV is positioned in your home, you can easily extend the back cover to its normal operating position by following the instructions below.
1
Remove the four wing nuts from the literature bag.
2 Remove the two screws (labeled A) from the shipping
brackets. You will use these screws later in step 6.

brackets into the back of the TV as shown, so they will be available in case you need to move your TV and want to collapse the back again.

Power Interruption Protection Feature
In the first few months of operation, it is normal for your TV to occasionally shut down and immediately turn itself on again. The picture tubes in this TV (as in all TV’s) operate at a very high voltage and at times may arc internally. Your TV will recognize what is happening and will automatically shut down. This protects the TV’s memory from locking up or, in some cases, being erased. After a shut down occurs, the following message will briefly appear on the screen.
Note: This message will also be displayed briefly if power is interrupted due to a loss of power to the TV, such as in an electrical storm or a brown-out situation.
7 (Optional) Converge your TV.
Your projection TV has three color projection tubes-one for red, one for green, and one for blue. When mixed together in
the proper proportion, the output of these three color tubes can produce many colors. To produce these colors, the
beams must be precisely aligned over each other so that the colors can be mixed. The process of aligning these picture beams is called “convergence”.
Over a period of time, the picture tubes can drift out of
alignment due to normal bumps and vibrations or moving the
TV. If you move your TV or notice colored rings or halos
around objects in the picture, you may want to converge
(align) the colors.
To simplify convergence, an on-screen menu is provided that
allows you to display a test pattern of lines on the screen.
Properly converged, the lines appear white-which is actually
a combination of the output of the three color tubes.
The position of the green lines is stationary. The positions of the red and blue lines are adjustable. When properly adjusted, the red and blue lines should lie directly over the green lines to produce single white lines.
To Converge (Align) the Colors.
1
Turn on the TV and select a channel that is active in your area. Allow the TV to operate at least ten minutes before converging.

Review menus and other features.
When you feel comfortable with your TV and remote controls, review the menus. Most of the menus are shown inside the front cover. You can fold this page out for quick reference while reading the manual.
The Help function on the MAIN MENU offers a variety of help screens to assist you in the connection and operation of your TV. Details are on page 13.
The rest of this manual can be used as a reference guide with detailed information about each operating control, menu, and function. There is an alphabetical index in the back for your convenience.
Inside of the back cover is a quick-reference operating guide. This page is designed so it can be removed from the manual.

Operating Remote Controls
Before attempting to operate either one of the remote controls, install the batteries as shown below.
Installing/Replacing Batteries
1
Turn each remote control face down.
2 Press down on the ridged area of each battery cover and slide
it off.
3 Install the “AAA” batteries in each compartment as shown. 4 Replace the covers and turn remotes over (face up).
Notes: Replace the batteries when the TV fails to respond to the remote control.
If you programmed your master remote to control other components, you may have to reprogram the code numbers when you change batteries. Try not to press any buttons while changing batteries.
Never place anything heavy on top of the remote control or lay it upside- down. This may accidentally depress the buttons for a long time and discharge the batteries.
Do not mix new and used batteries or different brands of batteries. If battery leakage occurs, wipe up the liquid inside the compartment and
replace the batteries with new ones.
Using the Remote Controls
Aim either remote control at your TV’s remote control sensor (located behind the TV screen). The remote controls produce an invisible (infrared) beam that travels in a straight line much as the beam of a flashlight. For this reason, when operating either one of the remote controls,
you must point it directly at the front of the TV without
objects between that can block the infrared light beam.
Aim remote at your TV’s remote control sensor
(located behind the TV screen).
