supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of
the grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes, and requirements of the grounding electrode.

Lightning Protection

For added protection of the TV during a lightning storm or when it is left unattended or
unused for long periods of time, unplug the TV from the wall outlet and disconnect the
antenna or cable system.

Power Lines

Do not locate the antenna near overhead light or power circuits, or where it could fall
into such power lines or circuits.

Aspect Ratio Explained

The TV is a widescreen TV, but most TV programs are still broadcasting in a square format,
therefore the TV is offering multiple ways of viewing videos. There are mainly two types of signal
format, Full (16:9 format), Normal (4:3 format), while others offer a novelty ways to view the TV.
Simply use the ASPECT button on the TV’s remote control to cycle between the multiple modes.

1. NORMAL
Most analog TV channels have 4:3 signal formats. If the original 4:3 aspect ratio (1.33:1
source) is preserved, black bars are added to the left and right of the display image. This
aspect keeps that aspect ratio and shows you the black bars on the side.

2. WIDE
This mode will stretch the picture to a widescreen ratio. If you have a perfect 16:9 ratio picture
you will not see any black bars. If you are watching a widescreen movie in 1.85:1 or 2.35:1
ratio, you will still get black bars on the top and bottom of the screen. If you use this mode on
4:3 pictures they will be stretched and distorted horizontally.

3. ZOOM
When watching a 4:3 aspect ratio TV or movie, this mode zooms in to cut off most of the black
bars on the side while preserving the 16:9 ratio. Because of the zoom, the top and bottom are
cut off as well.

4. CINEMA
This mode cuts off all 4 sides to try to make a widescreen movie fit better on the TV screen.

5. DOT BY DOT (only available under PC & HDMI)This mode is only available when the source
is shown a true PC signal. This will show 100% of the screen without any type of cropping.

Make sure you have a 3.5 mm mini-jack cable connected from

For best image quality, view HD widescreen programs where
possible. If HD content is not available view “Standard

interference and deficiencies you did not KNOW you had.
