Important Safety Information

Always be careful when using your TV. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and other injuries,
keep these safety precautions in mind when installing, using, and maintaining your unit.

• Read all safety and operating instructions before operating your TV.

• Keep the safety and operating instructions for future reference.

• Heed all warnings on the TV and in the operating instructions.

• Unplug the TV from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a damp cloth; do not use liquid or
aerosol cleaners.

• Never add any attachments and/or equipment without approval of the manufacturer. Such
additions can increase the risk of fire, electric shock, or other personal injury.

• Do not use the TV where contact with water is possible, such as near bath tubs, sinks, washing
machines, swimming pools, etc.

• Do not place the TV on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table where
it can fall. A falling TV can cause serious injury to a child or adult, and serious
damage to the appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the TV. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions when mounting the unit, and use a mounting
accessory recommended by the manufacturer. Move the TV and cart with care.
Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces can make the unit and cart
unsteady and more likely to overturn.

• The TV is designed with slots in the cabinet for ventilation to protect it from overheating. Do not block
these openings with any object, and do not put the TV on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Do
not put the TV near a radiator or heat register. If you do put the TV on a rack or
bookcase, make sure that there is adequate ventilation and that you’ve followed the manufacturer’s
instructions for mounting.

• Operate your TV only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure
of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company.

• Use only a grounded or polarized outlet. For your safety, this TV is equipped with a polarized alternat­ing current line plug having one blade wider than the other. This plug will fit into the power outlet only
one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still
does not fit, contact an electrician to replace your outlet.

• Protect the power cord. Power supply cords should be routed so that they won’t be walked on or
pinched by objects placed on or against them. Pay particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the unit.

• Unplug the TV from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system during a lightning storm
or when left unattended and unused for long periods of time. This will prevent damage to the unit from
lightning and power-line surges.

• Avoid overhead power lines. An outside antenna system should not be placed in the vicinity of over­head power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or
circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, be extremely careful to keep from touching the
power lines or circuits. Contact with such lines can be fatal.

• Do not overload the wall outlet or extension cords. Overloading can result in fire or electric shock.

• Do not insert anything through the openings in the unit, where they can touch dangerous voltage points
or damage parts. Never spill liquid of any kind on the TV.

• Ground outdoor antennas. If an outside antenna or cable
system is connected to the TV, be sure the antenna or cable
system is grounded so as to provide some protection against
voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No.70-1984, pro­vides information about proper grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an
antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,
location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

• Do not attempt to service the TV yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Unplug the
unit from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel when:

- The power-supply cord or plug is damaged

- Liquid has been spilled on the unit or if objects have fallen into the unit

- The TV has been exposed to rain or water

- The TV does not operate normally by following the operating instructions

- The TV has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged

- The TV exhibits a distinct degradation in performance

- When the LAMP(BULB ONLY) replacement is needed

• If you make adjustments yourself, adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instruc­tions. Adjusting other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified
technician to restore the TV to normal.

• When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts specified
by the manufacturer or those that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in additional damage to the unit.

• Upon completion of any service or repairs to this TV, ask the service technician to
perform safety checks to determine that the TV is in a safe operating condition.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference that may cause undesired operation.

This television receiver provides display of television closed captioning in accordance with §15.119 of
the FCC rules.

• When changing the lamp, you should first verify the type/model, and then use only the correct lamp
replacement. The code for lamp regulation and usage is marked on the label. If you remove the lamp,
you can identify this replacement code. You should only replace the lamp with the one of the same reg­ulation code.

• If you wish to buy a new lamp, please phone your Service Center or a nearby TV dealer, and tell them
the model of your projection unit.

• You can identify the lamp type on the left side of TV and the lamp cover.

• The TV will be damaged if you use a lamp that is different from the original supplied by the manufac­turer.

• Please don't remove the lamp except when replacing with a new one.

• Please turn off TV power before changing a lamp and then unplug after waiting 1 minute.

• The cooling fan will help cool the lamp so you can safely remove it. The surface of the Lamp is very
hot. Please wait for 30 minutes after turning off your projection TV to handle the lamp.

• Please keep the old lamp away from flammable articles and children. Dispose of properly.

• Don't allow dirt or dust to accumulate inside the lamp cover or on the Lamp.

• A dirty cover or lamp can catch fire, explode and cause electric shock.

• Please don't touch the front glass of a new lamp or the glass of the lamp container.

• If a new lamp is improperly handled, the quality of the screen image can be affected and the expected
life span of the lamp can be reduced.

• Be sure to tighten the lamp cover on the TV after changing the lamp. Note that the TV will not function
if the lamp cover is not securely attached. Please tighten the holding screw on the lamp cover after it
has been attached to the TV.

Cable with a Cable Box that Descrambles All Channels

1

Find the cable that is con­nected to the ANTENNA
OUT terminal on your
cable box. This terminal
might be labeled “ANT
OUT,” “VHF OUT,” or sim­ply, “OUT.”

2

Connect the other end of
this cable to the ANT A
antenna terminal on the
back of the TV.

Connecting a Cable Converter Box

This connection allows you to watch cable and premium channels. You should keep your TV
selected to ANT-A so that you can use the TV features. When viewing premium channels, select
ANT-B and tune the TV to channel 3 or 4 (whichever channel is vacant in your area), then use the
converter box to change channels. You will need two coaxial cables.

Note: When you use a converter box with
your TV, there may be features that you can
not program using the remote control, such
as programming your favorite channels and
blocking channels.

Connecting a Cable Converter Box and a VCR

This connection allows you to watch and record basic and premium cable channels, as well as
watch videotapes. You should keep your TV selected to ANT-A so that you can use the TV’s fea­tures. When viewing premium channels or recording with the VCR, select ANT-B (whichever chan­nel is vacant in your area), then use the converter box to change channels.

Caution: If you want to record one channel
while watching another channel, a splitter
(not included) must be added between the
cable and ANT-A. One output of the splitter
goes to ANT-A and the second output is
connected to IN on the cable converter
box.

If you have a mono VCR, connect L/Mono
to VCR Audio OUT using only one audio
cable.

If you have a S-VHS VCR, use the S-video
connections and remove the video cable.
Do not connect the video cable and the
S-video cable to video1 simultaneously.

When you use a converter box with your
TV there may be features that you can not
program using the remote control, such as
programming your favorite channels and
blocking channels.

Viewing Closed Caption Information

Your TV decodes and displays the closed captions information that is broadcast along with some
television shows. These captions are usually subtitles for the hearing impaired or translations into
other languages. All VCRs record the closed caption signal from television programs, so pre­recorded video tapes can also deliver closed-caption information. Check for the closed caption
symbol ( ) on the tape’s package or your TV program-schedule.

Closed Captions

the joystick down to select
SETUP, then press the joystick
to enter.

Move the joystick right or left
to turn closed captioning
on/off. Misspelling and unusu­al characters sometimes occur
in closed caption transmis­sions, especially those of live
events. There may be a small
delay before captions appear
when you change channels. (These do not indicate the
TV is malfunctioning.) Move the joystick down to
select the “Mode”. Move the joystick right or left to
choose “Caption” or “Text.” ln caption mode, cap­tions appear at the bottom of the screen, and they
usually cover only a small portion of the picture. In
text mode, information unrelated to the program, such
as news or weather, is displayed. Text often covers a
large portion of the screen.

If you wish, use the joystick button to change the
captioning channel or field. Then, press Menu to

return to normal viewing. Different channels and fields
display different information. For example, Channel 1
may have subtitles in English, while Channel 2 has
subtitles in Spanish.

Auto Volume

Each broadcasting station has its own signal conditions, and it is inconvenient to adjust
the volume every time the channel is changed. “Auto volume” automatically adjusts the
volume of the desired channel by lowering the sound output when the modulation signal
is high or by raising the sound output when the modulation signal is low.
