CONDENSATION

Moisture will form in the operating section of the player if the player is brought from cool 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.

HOW TO HANDLE THE LCD PANEL

• Do not press hard or jolt the LCD panel. It may cause the LCD panel glass to break and injury may occur.

• If the LCD panel is broken, make absolutely sure that you do not touch the liquid in the panel. This may

cause skin inflammation.
If the liquid gets in your mouth, immediately gargle and consult with your doctor. Also, if the liquid gets in
your eyes or touches your skin, consult with your doctor after rinsing for at least 15 minutes or longer in
clean water.

Notes when mounting the LCD TV/DVD on a wall

• When installing the unit on a wall, allow at least 6 cm (2 1/2 inches) clearance between the rear of the LCD
TV/DVD and the wall. Clearance of less than 6 cm (2 1/2 inches) will obstruct the vents and may cause the
interior of the unit to overheat, resulting in damage to the unit.

• If the unit is to be mounted on the wall, contact the retailer where you purchased the LCD TV/DVD for advice,
and have the equipment professionally installed. Incomplete or improper installation may cause injury to you
and/or the LCD TV/DVD.

Cable TV connections

This TV/DVD 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 BASIC CABLE TV SERVICE

75 ohm
Coaxial Cable

Jack

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/DVD.

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/DVD. Follow the
connections shown below. Set the TV/DVD to the output channel of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually
channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box to select channels.

FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO UNSCRAMBLED BASIC CABLE TV SERVICE WITH
SCRAMBLED PREMIUM CHANNELS

If you subscribe to 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 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/DVD. With the switch in the “A” position,
tune your TV/DVD to the output of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/

WHAT IS CLOSED CAPTIONING?

This television has the capability to decode and display Closed Captioned television programs. Closed Captioning
will display text on the screen for hearing impaired viewers or it will translate and display text in another language.

Captions: This Closed Caption Mode will display text on the screen
in English or another language. Generally, Closed Captions in
English are transmitted on C1 and Closed Captions in other
languages are transmitted on C2.
Text: The Text Closed Caption Mode will usually fill 1/2 of the screen
with a programming schedule or other information.

NOTES:

• If the program or video you selected is not closed-captioned, no captions will display on-screen.

• If text is not available in your viewing area, a black rectangle may appear on-screen. If this happens, set the
Closed Caption feature to “OFF”.

• When selecting Closed Captions, the captioning will be delayed approx. 10 seconds.

• If no caption signal is received, no captions will appear, but the television will remain in the Caption Mode.

• Misspellings or unusual characters may occasionally appear during Closed Captioning. This is normal with

Closed Captioning, especially with live programs. This is because during live programs, captions are also
entered live. These transmissions do not allow time for editing.

• When Captions are being displayed, on-screen displays, such as volume and mute may be seen but may
interfere with Closed Captions.

• Some cable systems and copy protection systems may interfere with the Closed Captioned signal.

• If using an indoor antenna or if TV reception is very poor, the Closed Caption Decoder may not appear or may

appear with strange characters or misspelled words. In this case, adjust the antenna for better reception or use
an outdoor antenna.

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/DVD 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/DVD 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/DVD from the power source before cleaning.
Clean the LCD using a dry soft cloth such as gauze.
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.
