IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CONDENSATION Moisture will form in the operating section of the player if the player is brought from coot surroundings into a

warm room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, player's performance will be

impaired. To prevent this, let the player stand in its new surroundings for about an hour before switching it on, or make sure that the room temperature rises gradually. Condensation may also form during the summer if the player is exposed to the breeze from an air conditioner. In

such cases, change the location of the player.

Possible Adverse Effects on LCD Panel: If a fixed (non-moving) pattern remains on the LCD Panel for long periods of time, the image can become permanently engrained in the LCD Panel and cause subtle but permanent ghost images. This type of damage isNOT COVERED BYYOUR WARRANTY. Never leave your LCD Panel on for long periods of time while it is displaying the following formats or images:

• Fixed Images, such as stock tickers, video game patterns, -IV station Iogos, and websites.

• Special Formats that do not use the entire screen. For example, viewing letterbox style (16:9) media on a normal (4:3) display (black bars at top and bottom of screen); or viewing normal style (4:3) media on a widescreen (16:9) display (black bars on left and right sides of screen).

The following symptoms are not signs of malfunction but technical limitation. Therefore we disclaim any

responsibility for these symptoms.

• LCD Panels are manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology, however sometimes

parts of the screen may be missing picture elements or have luminous spots.

This is not a sign of a malfunction.

• Do not install the LCD Panel near electronic equipment that is susceptible to electromagnetic waves. Some equipment placed too near this unit may cause interference.

• Effect on infrared devices -There may be interference while using infrared devices such as infrared cordless

headphones.

HOW TO INSTALL BATTERIES

1. Open the battery compartment cover.

2. Install two "AA" batteries (supplied).

a. Replace the battery compartment cover.

Use two "AA" size batteries. The batteries may last

approximately one year depending on how much the

remote control is used. For best performance, it is recommended that batteries should be replaced on a

yearly basis, or when the remote operation becomes

erratic. Do not mix old and new batteries or different

types.

BATTERY PRECAUTIONS

These precautions should be followed when using

batteries in this device:

• Use only the size and type of batteries specified.

• Be sure to follow the correct polarity when

installing the batteries as indicated in the battery compartment. Reversed batteries may cause damage to the device.

• Do not mix different types of batteries together (e.g.

Alkaline and Carbon-zinc) or old batteries with fresh ones.

• If the device is not to be used for a long period of

time, remove the batteries to prevent damage or injury from possible battery leakage.

• Do not try to recharge batteries not intended to be

recharged; they can overheat and rupture. (Follow battery manufacturer's directions.)

Antenna connections

If you are using an indoor or outdoor antenna, follow the instructions below that correspond to your

Cable TV connections

This TV has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a Cable TV

Converter box. Some cable companies offer "premium pay channels" where the signal is scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal viewing requires the use of a descrambler device which is

generally provided by the Cable TV company.

For subscribers to scrambled Cable TV service

If you subscribe to 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 Coaxial

Cable, connect the output jack of the Converter/Descrambler box to the Antenna Jack on the TV. Follow the connections shown below. Set the TV to the output channel of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box to select channels.

For basic Cable TV service not requiring a Converter/ Descrambler box, connect the 75 ohm Coaxial Cable directly

to the Antenna Jack on the back of the TV.

If you subscribe to a Cable TV service inwhich 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 TV company or an electronics 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

Reception disturbances

Most types of television interference can be remedied by adjusting the height and position of the VHF/ UHF antenna. Outdoor antennas are recommended for best results. The most common types of television interference are shown below. If one of these symptoms appear when the TV is connected to a Cable TV

system, the disturbance may be caused by the local Cable TV company broadcast.

IGNITION

Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, the picture may flutter or drift. Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems,

neon lamps or AC powered tools and appliances such as drills or hair dryers.

GHOSTS

Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is the direct path and the other is reflected by tall buildings, hills or other large objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve the reception.

SNOW

If the TV is located far from the TV station, in a fringe reception area where the signal is weak, small dots may appear in the picture. If the signal is extremely weak, the installation of a larger external antenna may be necessary.

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE (RFI)

Caused by two-way radios, this type of interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks in the picture. Some cases may cause a loss of contrast in the picture. Changing the direction and position of the antenna or installing an RFI filter may improve the picture.

PICTURE SIZE VARIATION

A slight picture size variation is normal when you adjust the CONTRAST or BRIGHTNESS settings.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect the TV from the power source before cleaning. The finish on the cabinet may be cleaned with mild soap and a soft, damp cloth and cared for as other furniture. Use caution when cleaning or wiping the plastic parts.
