IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Important Safety Instructions for LCD TV
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with dry cloth.
7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators,
heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or
grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades
with one wider than the other. A grounding-type plug has
two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade
or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the
provided plug does not fit fully into your outlet, consult
an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched
particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the
manufacturer.
12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod,
bracket, or table specified by the
manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus.
When a cart is used, use caution when
moving the cart/apparatus combination
to avoid injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in
any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged,
liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the
apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or
moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
15. If an outside antenna is connected to the television
equipment, be sure the antenna system is grounded so
as to provide some protection against voltage surges
and built up static charges. In the U.S. Selection 810-21
of the National Electrical Code provides information with
respect to 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 electrodes.

Note to CATV system installer:
This reminder is provided to direct the CATV system installers attention to Article

16. An outside antenna system should not be located in the
vicinity of overhead power lines or other electrical light
or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power
lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna
system, extreme care should be taken to keep from
touching such power lines or circuits as contact with
them might be fatal.
The surface of the cabinet can be damaged if not properly maintained. Many common household aerosol
sprays, cleaning agents, solvents, and polishes will cause permanent damage to the fine surface.
1. Unplug the power cord before cleaning the television.
2. Clean the screen and cabinet with a soft dry cloth.
Note:Never spray liquids on the screen because it can run down and drip onto the chassis. This may
cause component failure not covered under Warranty.

Operational Tip for No Signal Connection:
If the TV is used as a monitor only, with a DVD player or some other type of external equipment, and no cable or
antenna signal is available, the following setup is necessary:
Your TV is designed to automatically search for available channels. Therefore, the initial start up requires that you press
the MENU key, enabling the TV to automatically go through the channel search process before you can operate the
TV. After the initial channel search is completed, you must press the MENU key again to complete the channel search
process, it will take a few minutes for the TV to complete searching.
After channel search is complete (2 searches), you can press the INPUT key on the remote control to use the TV as a
monitor.
CATV FRANCHISE NOTE: Cable companies, like public utilities, are franchised by local government authorities. To receive cable programs,
even with equipment which is capable of receiving cable channels, the consumer must subscribe to the cable company’s service.

Closed-Captioning
Captioning is text information transmitted along with the picture and sound so it can be displayed on the TV screen.
Because different types of captions can be transmitted with the TV signal, separate captioning modes are provided. The
captioning modes recognized by this model are: Caption1 and Caption2. Local broadcasters decide which caption signals
to transmit.
CAPTION1: This is the main mode used for program captioning (words match the program you
are watching). These captions are generally one or two lines.
CAPTION2: This is an alternative mode for program captioning. Caption2 may be used by the
broadcaster to provide captions in another language, such as, Spanish or French.
QUIKCAP: Quikcap allows captions to toggle on and off with the Mute function. Press the
MUTE key on the remote control to block the TV sound; the captions display automatically. Press
the MUTE key again to restore the sound, the captions will disappear. Quikcap displays program
captions in the Caption1 mode.

NOTE: THIS FEATURE IS DESIGNED TO COMPLY WITH THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA’S FCC V-CHIP REGULATIONS. THEREFORE, IT MAY NOT FUNCTION
WITH BROADCASTS THAT ORIGINATE IN OTHER COUNTRIES.
This Sanyo television is equipped with an electronic V-Chip to interpret MPAA and TV Parental
Guidelines rating codes. When these codes are detected, the TV will automatically display or block
the program, depending upon choices you make when setting up the V-Guide system.
The V-Guide system contain both age-based and content-based settings. This gives parents
discretionary ways of choosing appropriate material for their children to view.
Content ratings are represented by the initials D (Suggestive Dialog), L (Adult Language),
S (Sexual Situations), V (Violence), and FV (Fantasy Violence). When programming contains any
or all of these conditions, these letters become part of the icon that is displayed on the TV screen.
A rating icon will generally appear in the upper left hand corner of the TV screen for
about fifteen seconds.
V-Guide Operation
Use this feature to supervise television viewing for young children. This television can be set to
automatically block programs with content you deem as inappropriate for your children to view.
The ability of the television to block the reception of specific programming content depends
upon several conditions: 1) The program must be rated, 2) Networks must broadcast the rating
code data, 3) Cable companies must transmit the rating code signal, and 4) The TV must be
properly setup to decode the signal.
