Hooking Up Outdoor Antenna
LIGHTNING PROTECTION FOR YOUR ANTENNA AND SET AS PER NATIONAL
ELECTRICAL CODE INSTRUCTIONS.
EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING ACCORDING TO NATIONAL
ELECTRICAL CODE, ANSI/NFPA 70
“Note to CATV system installer:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40
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.”
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.

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, Caption2, Text1, and Text2. Local broadcasters decide which
caption signals to transmit.
CAPTION1: The main mode used for
program captioning (words match the
program you are watching). These captions are generally one or two lines.
CAPTION2: An alternative mode for
program captioning. Caption2 may be
used by the broadcaster to provide captions in another language, such as,
Spanish or French.
TEXT1: This mode is used to display large
amounts of text. This text will appear within
a black box that may be nearly as large as
the TV screen. Text displayed in this
manner does not generally relate to the
program. Captions may be used by broadcasters to provide weather reports,
community bulletins, etc.
Channels deleted from scan memory can be selected with
the number keys.

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.

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 at the beginning of a program and should
be repeated at the beginning of the second hour of
a long program. It may also appear when returning from commercials. There may be other instances when these icons will
be displayed as well. Parents are encouraged to become familiar with these icons and their meanings.

CARE AND CLEANING
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.
