IMPORTANT INFORMATION: OPTIONAL STAND

A matching stand has been designed to be used with this tele- vision. This stand is provided with hardware to secure the TV to

the stand so that it cannot be easily pushed off, pulled off, or tipped over. This stand is available from your dealer, and is not

available by mail order. Caution: If you choose not to use the stand recommended for

your TV, take precautions that the stand or other furniture the TV

is placed on is properly located and of adequate size and strength

to prevent the TV from accidentally being pushed off, pulled off,

or tipped over. This could cause damage to the TV and/or personal injury.

STEP 2: Connect your TV. This is a basic connection from an antenna, cable

box, or VCR to your TV. Connect the cable from your cable system or off-air antenna to the cable-in jack on the back of the TV, as shown.

STEP 3:

Plug in the TV. Plug the end of the power cord into the wall outlet, matching the wide blade of the plug with the wide slot in the outlet.

Be sure to insert the plug completely.

STEP 4

• Remove the battery compartment cover from the back of the remote.

• Insert two AAA batteries as shown, matching the + and - ends

of each battery in the compartment.

Turn on the TV.

• Press TV on the remote. Read the next section, Using the Menu System, which is a brief

overview of the basic rules for getting around in the menus using the remote or TV's front control panel.

THLMENU RULE: POINT AND SELECT

You only need to know one rule to use the on-sc_eu_l _heJlus a_d control panels: point and select.

WHAT IS POINT AND SELECT?

The point and select method has two steps.

1. Point to a menu item using the MOVE arrows on the remote. (The CHAN/VOL buttons on the remote.)

2. Select a menu item by pressing MENU. Selecting an item tells the TV's menu system to go ahead and

make the change or go to a place you have indicated. (You can also select an item by pressing the corresponding number button on the remote.)

Once you know how to point and select your way through the

menus, you can apply this rule in the menu control panels, which

do the real work in the menu system.
