Important Safety Instructions for LCD DTV

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 dr y 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.

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.

17. "Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing
and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be
placed on the apparatus."

GETTING STARTED (REQUIRED INITIAL SETUP)

This LCD HDTV is capable of reproducing a
crystal clear digital picture and exceptional
sound.

The signal makes the difference!

INITIAL SIGNAL CONNECTIONS

1

DIGITAL (DTV) RF ANTENNA
CONNECTION

•

Connect an RF antenna to the Digital
Antenna In terminal.

The digital tuner in this DTV receives HD signals
from an antenna. Digital signals from a Set-top
Box (STB) are received through the Component
In jacks.

This DTV can receive ANY resolution being
broadcast (HDTV, EDTV, or SDTV).

Operational Tip for Monitor Use:

If the DTV 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 DTV is designed to automatically search for
available channels. Therefore, the initial start up
requires that you press the Channel (CH)  key,
enabling the DTV to automatically go through the
channel search process before you can operate
the DTV.

After the initial channel search is completed, you
must press the Channel (CH)  key again to
complete the channel search process. This may
take several minutes.

After the channel search process is complete (2
searches), you can press the INPUT key on the
remote control to use the DTV as a monitor.

INSTALLING BATTERIES IN THE
REMOTE CONTROL

Use 2 “AAA” batteries (Not supplied).
Be sure batteries are installed correctly. Match

the “+” and “–” signs on the batteries with
marks inside the remote control.

NOTES:

– Do not mix old batteries with new

ones or mix different types of bat­teries together.

– Remove the batteries if the

remote control will not be
used for a month or more.
Weak batteries may leak
and cause damage. (Normal
battery life is roughly six
months.)

– Use two “AAA”

Alkaline batteries.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Spent or discharged batteries must be
recycled or disposed properly in compliance with all applica­ble laws. For detailed information, contact your local County
Solid Waste Authority.

If the DTV does not detect any digital or analog
channels, a message advising the viewer to check
the cables and antenna connections will appear. In
this case, you must press the CHANNEL UP (

CH

 ) key again to repeat the channel search process.
If after two searches the DTV still fails to detect any
channels, the DTV will tune to analog channel 3.

These two channel searches are necessary even
if you plan to use the DTV only as a monitor.

If no analog or digital channels are found after
the second search,

All Channel Search will default
to off-air analog channels 2 through 69 and digital
channel D3-1. Select analog channels using
the remote control keypad. See page 17, item
number 2.

CARE AND CLEANING

CLEANING THE CABINET

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 cabinet with a soft dry cloth.

NOTE: Never spray liquids on the screen because they can run down and drip

onto the chassis. This may cause component failure not covered under
Warranty.

SEGURIDAD PARA INFANTES

Sanyo esta comprometido en hacer que su sistema de
entretenimiento sea seguro y agradable. Use siempre
una mesa o soporte apropiado cuando coloque su televi­sor. Use soportes, refuerzos o correas para sujetar el
mueble en su lugar. NUNCA atornille nada directamente
al televisor.

Nunca coloque televisiones en repisas, escritorios,
carros, etc. donde niños traviesos pudieran empujar, jalar
o hacer de cualquier forma que la unidad se cayera y les
causara algún daño.

Nunca coloque juguetes u otros artículos encima de la
televisión que puedan llamar la atención de los niños
queriendo ellos alcanzarlos ya que pueden trepar en el
mueble pudiendo lastimarse.

Siempre use soportes que están diseñados para con­tener la combinación de peso y tamaño de su televisión
y otros artículos eléctricos.

CHILD SAFETY

Sanyo is committed to making home entertainment safe
and enjoyable. Always use an appropriate table or stand
when positioning your DTV. Use appropriate brackets,
braces, or straps to anchor your furniture in place. But
never screw anything directly to the television.

Do not place televisions on dressers, shelves, desks,
carts, etc. where curious or excited children could pull,
push, or otherwise cause the unit to fall and cause per­sonal injury.

Never place toys or other items on top of the DTV that
could pique children’s curiosity causing them to climb
about the furniture.

Always use stands that are designed to support the size
and combined weight of your television and other elec­tronic devices

.
