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...

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

NSTRUCTIONS.

I

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.

EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING ACCORDING TO NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE,
ANSI/NFPA 70

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 appli-

ance 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.

Positioning the TV

Do not position the TV in a confined area. Allow space for normal air circulation
around electronic parts.

“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.”

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.

percentile number displayed across the bottom of the screen (to indicate activity) as the search process
continues. This may take some time, so please be patient.

Channel information found during the channel search is stored in the Channel Scan Memory database.

The HD television will be tuned to the lowest Digital channel or lowest Analog channel if no digital
channels are found.

2. 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 17.

3. After channel search is complete, the TV 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 20.)

PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL

1. Find your VCR, Cable Box, DVD Player, and Satellite Receiver brand codes in

the charts on page 14.

2. Press and hold the VCR, CABLE, DVD, SAT (Satellite Receiver) or AUX

(Auxiliary) mode key while entering a three-digit code number. Then release
the mode key.

If the code was accepted, the mode key will flash 5 times after it is released. If you
entered an invalid code, the mode key will not flash. Check the code number and
repeat Step 2.

After entering each code number check the unit’s operation by pressing the Power
and/or Channel keys. If these keys operate your equipment, you have probably
entered the correct code number for that device. If not, follow Step 2 and enter
another code, if available.

Perform Steps 1 and 2 for each piece of equipment you have.
The VCR, Cable Box, DVD, and

Satellite modes will accept only each
mode’s specific code type.

The AUX mode will accept all code
types, but only one code at a time.

After you have programmed the
remote control and confirmed its
operation, enter your codes in the
spaces provided for easy reference.

Using the Menu

CHANNEL SEARCH

Channel Search is required only if additional channels become available, such as moving to another
city or having a cable service installed.

1. Press MENU.

2. Use the ▲/▼ keys to highlight the Antenna icon. Press ENTER.

3. Use the ▲/▼ keys to select Channel Search. Press ENTER.

4. Use the ▼ key to select ON. Press ENTER.

DIGITAL CABLE SEARCH (Optional)

This TV 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.

1. Connect a Digital Cable signal directly to the TV Digital Antenna In jack.

2. Press the TUNER key to select digital channels. Press MENU.

3. Use the ▲/▼ keys to highlight the Antenna icon. Press ENTER.

4. Use the ▲/▼ keys to highlight Digital Cable Search. Press ENTER.

IMPORTANT FACT: This TV only maintains 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 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 will appear briefly to notify you
of this change. You have to relocate the program you were
watching by scanning through the channels.

When a terrestrial broadcast station rearranges its virtual channels, data in the PSIP tables
advises the TV of the change. This allows the TV to “follow” a program to its new virtual
channel. The viewer should not even realize a change has occurred.

To restore the antenna digital channel database, reconnect the antenna and use the menu
system to perform normal channel search.

DIGITAL ADD-ON SEARCH

Use this feature to update the digital antenna channel map database to
add new channels or to add channels when broadcast towers
are in opposite directions from your location.
