not expose this appliance to rain or other
moisture

When playing TV video games, do not use
intense brightness and/or contrast settings over
an extended period of time. This may leave a
permanent image of the playing field on the
picture screen.

Please read and keep these instructions.

Avoid exposing the television receiver to direct
sunlight and other source of the heat. Do not
stand the television receiver directly on other
products which give off heat. E.g. video cassette

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 with a soft cloth dampened with glass cleaner or warm water.

3. Clean the cabinet with a soft cloth dampened with a mild household detergent and

warm water. Dry thoroughly.

Note: NEVER spray liquids on the screen because they can run down and drip onto

the chassis. This may cause component failure not covered under Warranty.

REMOTE CONTROL

The remote control uses an invisible (infrared) light beam to operate the TV. Objects
between the TV and the remote can block this light beam. Therefore, for correct
operation the remote control must be pointed directly at the front of the TV with no
obstructions.

INSTALLING BATTERIES

The remote control requires two “AA”
batteries (supplied).

•

Remove the battery compartment
cover.

•

Install batteries to match the “+” and
“– ” marks inside case. Incorrectly
installed batteries can damage the
remote control.

•

Replace the battery cover.

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.)
