Positioning the appliance

1. Do not place your appliance on an unstable cart, stand, shelf or table.
Serious injury to an individual, and damage to the appliance, may result
if it should fall. Your salesperson can recommend approved
carts and stands or shelf and wall mounting instructions. An
appliance and cart combination should be moved with care.
Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may
cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.

2. Slots and openings in the cabinet and in the back or bottom are
provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the appliance and
to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or
covered. The openings should never be covered with a cloth or other
material, and the bottom openings should not be blocked by placing the
unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This appliance should
never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This appliance
should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase unless
proper ventilation is provided.

3. Do not expose the appliance to rain or use near water . . . for example,
near a bathtub, swimming pool, kitchen sink, in a wet basement, etc.

Hooking Up Outdoor Antenna

LIGHTNING PROTECTION FOR YOUR ANTENNA AND SET AS PER NATIONAL
ELECTRICAL CODE INSTRUCTIONS.

4. If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver, be sure the antenna
system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage
surges and built up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, 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 electrode.

An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of over­head power lines or other electric 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.

Plug in the power cord

5. This product should be operated only from the type of power source indi­cated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power
supply to your home, consult your product dealer or local power
company. This product is equipped with a polarized alternating current
line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit
into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the
plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of this polarized plug.
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience
receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

6. Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be
walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying
particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the product.

Cleaning

7. Before cleaning, unplug the unit from the wall outlet. Do not apply liquid clean­ers or aerosol cleaners directly to the unit. Use a dry cloth for cleaning.

Service & Repair

8. Unplug the appliance from the wall outlet and refer servicing to
qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

A. If the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
B. If liquid has been spilled into the appliance.
C. If the appliance has been exposed to rain or water.
D. If the appliance has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
E. If the appliance exhibits a distinct change in performance.
F. If the appliance does not operate normally by following the operating

instructions, adjust only those controls that are covered in the
operating instructions. Improper adjustment of other controls may
result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified
technician to restore the appliance to normal operation.

9. Upon completion of any service or repair, request the service technician’s
assurance that only Factory Authorized Replacement Parts that have the
same characteristics as the original parts were used, and that routine
safety checks have been performed to determine that the
appliance is in safe operating condition. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in fire, electrical shock, or other hazards.

10. Never add accessories that have not been specifically designed for use
with this appliance as they may cause hazards.

11. For added protection during a lightning storm, or when the set is left
unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall
outlet and disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage to the set
due to lightning or power line surges.

12. Never push objects of any kind into this product through openings as
they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could
result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the
product.

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. This may take several minutes.

– After the channel search process is com-

plete (2 searches), you can press the
INPUT key on the remote control to use
the TV as a monitor.

Notes:

– If you do not have a

cable box, connect
cable directly to TV
75 ohm jack or VCR.

– If you do not have a

VCR, connect signal
directly to TV 75 ohm
jack.

BASIC SET-UP AND CONNECTIONS



The TV will automatically select the correct Antenna
mode for the type of RF signal you connect.



TV will switch off automatically after 15 minutes if there
is no signal reception (cable out or station not broad­casting).

Exception—When the Video mode is selected, the TV will

not automatically switch off when signal reception has
stopped for 15 minutes.



If you move the TV to a new location, press the RESET
key twice after connecting the signal and turning on the
TV.
