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 three-wire grounding-type plug, a plug having a
third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet.
This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet,
contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.

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.

CAUTION

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR
BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED
SERVICE PERSONNEL.

THIS SYMBOL INDICATES THAT DANGEROUS VOLTAGE CONSTI­TUTING A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK IS PRESENT WITHIN THIS UNIT.

THIS SYMBOL INDICATES THAT THERE ARE IMPORTANT OPERATING
AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE LITERATURE ACCOMPA­NYING THIS UNIT.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: PLEASE ADHERE TO ALL WARNINGS ON THE PRODUCT AND IN THE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS. BEFORE OPERATING THE PRODUCT,
PLEASE READ ALL OF THE SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS. RETAIN THIS LITERATURE FOR REFERENCE. Follow all instructions...

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.

INITIAL SIGNAL CONNECTIONS

Analog RF Antenna Connection

•

Connect a Cable signal (with or without a cable
box), Satellite Receiver, 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 Satellite Receiver, VCR, or cable box.

UHF/VHF/CATV

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.



DTV will select the correct Antenna mode for the type of Analog RF
signal connected automatically.



Use “Antenna Selection” in the Setup menu to change the Antenna
Mode.



DTV 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 DTV will not auto-

matically switch off when signal reception has stopped for 15 minutes.



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

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 CHANNEL
UP key to automatically
search for available channels:
Digital (ATSC) and Analog (NTSC).

The 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 numbers will appear under the progress
bar only when a digital channel is found.)

Channel information found during the channel search is
stored in the Channel Scan Memory database. After the
channel search is completed, the DTV will tune to the lowest
Digital channel or lowest Analog channel if no digital channels
are found.

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 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, 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 11, item
number 3.

AUTO CLOCK SETTING (Optional)

After channel search is complete, the DTV will begin
Auto Clock setting. This feature searches for a local
PBS station that is broadcasting an extended data
service signal. This signal is used to automatically
set the clock/day. (This
may take several
seconds.) To cancel auto
clock setting, press the
CHANNEL UP key. (To
set the clock manually,
see page 19.)

ANTENNA SELECTION (Optional)

To change the initial ANALOG tuning system setup
(from antenna to cable or cable to antenna), use
the on-screen menu. See “Antenna Selection” on
page 15.

INSTALL TWO “AAA” 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.

•

Install two “AAA” Batteries
(not included) so that the
“+” and “–” marks on the
batteries match the “+”
and “–” marks inside
the Remote.

To review the Remote
functions, go to
Pages 11 ~ 12.



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.)



If batteries have leaked in the Remote Control Unit, carefully wipe
the case clean and load new batteries.
