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 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.
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."

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 82040 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular,
specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the
building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.”

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).
RF Antenna
DTV Back
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.

DTV will select the correct Antenna mode for the type
of Analog RF signal connected automatically.
Use “Analog Antenna Signal” in the Setup menu to
change the Antenna Mode.
If you move the DTV to a new location, press the
RESET key twice after connecting the signal and
turning on the DTV.
NOTES: If you do not have a VCR, connect signal directly
to the 75 ohm terminal (UHF/ VHF/CATV).
Don’t be fooled by the phrase “Available in
High-Definition.” The only resolution available
with any of these connections, regardless of the
original content, is standard analog (SDTV ).

ANALOG RF ANTENNA CONNECTION
•
Connect a Cable signal (with or without a cable box) or RF antenna to the
Analog RF input.
The analog tuner in this DTV receives Analog Antenna signals, Analog Cable
signals, or the RF output from a VCR or cable box.
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.

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.
4
ANALOG ANTENNA SIGNAL
(OPTIONAL)
To change the initial analog tuning system setup
(from antenna to cable or cable to antenna), use
the on-screen menu, see “Analog Antenna
Signal” on page 22.
3
ALL CHANNEL SEARCH
When the television is powered on for the first
time, it automatically checks for the presence of
an RF signal.
• Press the Power key
to turn on the DTV.
• Then press the Chan-
nel Up (CH ) key to
automatically search
for available channels:
Digital (ATSC) and
Analog (NTSC).
The All Channel Search
contains two processes
that are executed simultaneously for digital and
analog channels.
NOTES:
The on-screen message for digital search will appear
with a progress bar and percentile number displayed
across the bottom of the screen (to indicate activity)
as the search process continues.
Channel information found during the All Channel
Search is stored in Analog and Digital Channel Scan
Memory databases. After the All Channel Search is
completed, the DTV will tune to the lowest Digital
channel or lowest Analog channel if no digital channels are found.

IMPORTANT FACT: This DTV maintains only one data-
base of digital channels. Therefore, when you search
for ClearQAM digital cable channels, the database of
antenna digital channels will be deleted. You will only
be able to receive those ClearQAM channels your
cable company provides.
Cable companies rearrange
virtual channels as programming changes, which may
cause the program you are watching to move to another channel. This message will appear on the screen
briefly to notify you of a change. You will have to relocate the program you were watching by scanning
through the channels.
To restore the antenna digital channel database,
reconnect the antenna and use the menu system to
perform an All Channel Search.
DIGITAL CABLE SEARCH (OPTIONAL)
This DTV can receive unscrambled (ClearQAM)
digital cable channels, when available. However,
not all cable companies provide ClearQAM
digital channels.
Searching for digital cable channels will take
about 10 minutes, please be patient.
