HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
•
Handle the Plasma DTV carefully when
installing. Do Not Drop.
•
Throughout the installation process, handling by
more than two people is recommended.
•
When removing the stand, use a working space
that is larger than the screen size. The work
surface must be flat and covered with a soft
cloth or blanket to protect the screen surface.
•
Before placing the Plasma DTV face down,
make sure there are no objects under the
screen. Leaving any object may cause damage
on the screen surface.
POSITIONING PRECAUTIONS
•
Place this Plasma DTV as indicated here. Failure to
do so may result in a fire hazard. Allowing the
proper amount of space at the top, sides, and rear
of the Plasma DTV cabinet is critical for proper air
circulation and cooling of the unit. The dimensions
shown here indicate the minimum space required.
If the Plasma DTV is to be built into a compartment
or similarly enclosed, these minimum distances
must be maintained.
•
Do not cover the ventilation slots on the Plasma
DTV. Heat build-up can reduce the life of your
Plasma DTV, and can also be dangerous.
•
If the Plasma DTV is not to be used for an extended
period of time, unplug it from the power outlet.
PROTECTING THE PLASMA SCREEN
The screen is likely to be damaged if it is not maintained properly. Do not use hard objects such as hard
cloth or paper. Do not use excessive pressure when
cleaning the screen; excessive
pressure can cause permanent
discoloration or dark spots.
NEVER spray liquids on the
screen.
REMOVING THE STAND (Optional)
Tools Needed: Phillips screwdriver
Important Note: Place DTV face down on a
padded or cushioned surface that is larger than
the screen size to protect the screen and
finish. Handling by more than two people is
recommended.
1
Remove four (4) screws from the metal bracket.
CAUTION: Hold the stand firmly as you remove
the last screw.
2
Carefully remove the stand.
WALL MOUNTING (Optional)
Use the threaded inserts on the back of your Plasma
DTV to secure it using a wall mounting kit.
(UNIVERSAL standard interface 480 x 200 and 480 x
360.)
Note: Wall Mounting kit is not supplied.
Mounting screws measurements:

IMPORTANT FACTS:
This DTV maintains only
one database of digital channels. Therefore,
when you search for ClearQAM digital cable
channels, the database of antenna digital channels will be deleted. You will be able to receive
only those ClearQAM channels your cable
company provides.
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.
Digital Cable Search process will take about 10
minutes, please be patient.
DIGITAL ADD-ON SEARCH
To add new digital channels to the existing antenna
channel database, use Digital Add-on Search. Also,
use this feature to add channels when broadcast
towers are in multiple directions from your location.
For more info go to www.antennaweb.org and
type in your zip code to obtain specific tower and
antenna information. Then adjust your antenna and
repeat the Digital Add-on Search.
CHANNEL SCAN MEMORY
This is a list of active channels that you can scan
through using the Channel Scan CH (up)
CH (down) keys. The list can be customized by
deleting and/or adding channels as shown.
IMPORTANT FACTS:
When a digital channel is
deleted, all of that channel’s sub-channels are
deleted as well.
Only previously deleted digital channels can be
added back to the Channel Scan Memory.
If one digital sub-channel is added back to the
Channel Scan Memory list, all of that channel’s
sub-channels will be added back.

V-GUIDE (PARENTAL CONTROL)
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.
Use this feature to automatically block programs with
content you deem as inappropriate for children to view.
This Sanyo television is equipped with an electronic
V-Chip to interpret MPAA (Motion Picture Association
of America) and TV Parental Guidelines rating codes.
When these codes are detected, the DTV will automatically display or block the program, depending
upon choices you make when setting up the V-Guide
system.
V-GUIDE RATINGS—AT-A-GLANCE
MPAA (MOVIE) RATING
BLOCKED RATINGS
(LOCK SYMBOL)
TV RATING
CONTENT RATING
Content ratings are represented by the initials: FV
(fantasy violence), L (adult language), S (sexual situations), V (violence), and D (suggestive dialog).
OPERATING TIPS:
You can block portions of a DTV rating by choosing
one or more of the Content ratings (D, L, S, and V).
By blocking just the L and S content ratings of
TV-14, for example, TV-14 rated programs with a D
and/or V content rating could still be viewed.
V-Guide limits on programming received via the
Analog antenna input, Digital antenna input, Video
1 input, and any 480i signals received through the
Component jacks can be controlled by this DTV.
V-Guide Limits on digital programming received
through the component jacks and HDMI jacks are
controlled by the external equipment connected to
these jacks. Refer to your external device’s
owner’s manual for instructions on setting V-Guide
Limits.
DIGITAL CAPTION
Closed-Captioning is text information transmitted
along with the picture and sound. Turning Captioning ON causes the DTV to open these captions
(digital or analog) and superimpose them on the
screen. (Local broadcasters decide which caption
signals to transmit.)
Digital Captions can be changed using the menu
settings as shown.
OPERATING TIPS:
If Background Opacity is set to transparent,
captions may be difficult to see.
Only true EIA 708B Digital Closed-Captions are
affected by all of these settings.

WHITE PATTERN (PANEL REPAIR)
Use this feature to repair the Plasma
screen.
If an afterimage occurs, use the White Pattern
feature immediately to repair the panel. The more
severe the afterimage, the longer the curing
process may take. It may be impossible to repair
all cases of afterimage burn.
The sooner you remove a still picture and activate
White Pattern, the more likely it is that the panel
can be repaired.
Notes: Afterimage (or image burn) is not covered
under warranty.
When the White Pattern is activated the
screen will instantly turn completely white.
The On time is automatically set for 30
minutes.
Pressing any key except
Volume
,
Mute
, and
Audio
will cancel the curing
process and return the DTV to normal
viewing.
ENERGY (POWER) SAVER
This power saving feature reduces the brightness
level. The power saving function options:
• OFF – the feature is off and the power con-
sumption is normal.
• LOW – power saving level is low and the bright-
ness level is lower than normal.
• HIGH – power saving level is high and the bright-
ness is set to the lowest level.
PICTURE ROTATION (SCREEN SAVER)
Displaying a still picture for a long time may cause
an “afterimage” or “ghost” on the screen. To neutralize this situation, use the Picture Rotation
function.
Note: When the Picture Rotation is set to ON, the
DTV automatically changes the display position
every 15 minutes to avoid afterimage.
OPERATING TIP:
The Energy saver settings level will vary depend-
ing on the Picture/Sound mode. For instance, the
energy low level settings may be different
between the manual picture/sound mode (customized settings) than the auto mode (factory
settings).
