IMPORT ANT INFORMATION
Energy efficiency is becoming increasingly important to consumers both in the US and in Canada. ENERGY STAR is a US registered trademark to indicate that a product meets its guidelines for energy efficiency.
WHAT IS ENERGY STAR
TVs and VCRs use energy both when they are on and when they are off. North Americans spend more than $1 billion a year on energy consumed by TVs and VCRs when they are not in use. The new ENERGY STAR® models will reduce that energy leakage by up to 75 percent. Ultimately, this will mean more than $500 million a year in energy savings for consumers.
The energy savings will help reduce the burning of fossil fuels and the related carbon dioxide pollution that contributes to global warming. If every North American family replaced their TVs and VCRs with ENERGY STAR® models, it would reduce carbon dioxide emissions by five million tons every year equivalent to eliminating the pollution from more than one million cars.
By using ENERGY ST AR® products, you will save money on your electric bills and use less energy. That makes good economic sense and its good for our environment.
®
WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO WET LOCATIONS.
WARNING OF DEW FORMATION
Whenever your TV is moved from a cold to a warm environment, it is important that you plug the unit in, turn the power on and allow it to sit for about 2 hours before attempting to play a tape. This period will allow any dew formation to evaporate. Failure to do so may result in tape and/or video head damage. After the 2 hours evaporation period, you may witness a snowy picture for the first few minutes of VCR operation. This picture noise will disappear shortly thereafter.
CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT, FULLY INSERT.
CAUTION:
DO NOT PLACE THIS PRODUCT ON AN UNSTABLE CART, STAND, TRIPOD, BRACKET, OR TABLE. THE PRODUCT MAY FALL CAUSING SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY AND SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE PRODUCT. USE ONLY WITH A CART, STAND, TRIPOD, BRACKET, OR TABLE RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER OR SOLD WITH THE PRODUCT. FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURERS INSTRUCTIONS WHEN INSTALLING THE PRODUCT AND USE MOUNTING ACCESSORIES RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER. A PRODUCT AND CART COMBINATION SHOULD BE MOVED WITH CARE. QUICK STOPS, EXCESSIVE FORCE, AND UNEVEN SURFACES MAY CAUSE THE PRODUCT AND CART COMBINATION TO OVERTURN.

Before Operating Y our TV/VCR Combination
Location
For normal operation, your TV should be located in an area of the room where cool adequate ventilation is provided. Do not place the back of the television set in a place where free airflow will be restricted.
Any magnetic force may disturb the color picture. Make sure that magnets, electric clocks, toys using magnets or any other magnetic substance, such as iron are kept well away from the TV set.
Power
Your TV operates on 120 Volts, 60 Hz (normal household current) and has a polarized plug. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. Should it fail to fit, contact an electrician. Do not defeat the safety feature of the polarized plug.
Note:
If the set will not be used for a long period, such as during a vacation, unplug the set from the wall outlet to economize power. (If the TV set is plugged in, a slight current still flows, even with the POWER BUTTON in the OFF position.)
Lines and other noise may appear in TV broadcast images when an FM tuner or radio is located near the TV and both radio and TV broadcasts are being received. Should such noise appear, turn off either the TV or the radio.
If you are listening to an AM broadcast, turn the TV off. AM broadcast signals may not be received due to interference from the TV .
L Before using the television, prepare the Remote Control
To use the remote control, insert batteries first.
Insert the batteries
Pull up
Battery Cover
With your thumb nail, pull up the slit as indicated by the arrow to remove the back cover. Insert two batteries (size AA). Be sure to match the battery e/d terminals with the e/d marks inside the compartment.

Antenna Connections
Antennas
The antenna requirements for good color television reception are more important than those for black & white television reception. For this reason, a good quality outdoor antenna is strongly recommended.
The following is a brief explanation of the type of connections that are provided with the various antenna systems:
1. A 75 ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type
F-type connector
connector that can easily be attached to a terminal without tools (not supplied).
75-ohm coaxial cable (round)
2. A 300 ohm system is a flat “twin-lead” cable that can be
attached to a 75 ohm terminal through a 300-75 ohm ADAPTOR (not supplied).
300-ohm twin-lead cable (flat)
OUTDOOR ANTENNA CONNECTION
Use one of the following two diagrams if you connect an outdoor antenna. A: Using a VHF/UHF combination outdoor antenna. B: Using separate VHF and/or UHF outdoor antenna.
Connect an outdoor antenna cable lead-in to the COAXIAL CABLE CONNECTOR on the rear of the TV set.

CABLE TV (CA TV) CONNECTION
A 75 ohm coaxial cable connector is built into the set for easy hookup. When connecting the 75 ohm coaxial cable to the set, screw the 75 ohm cable to the COAXIAL CABLE CONNECTOR.
Some cable TV companies offer premium pay channels. Since the signals of these premium pay channels are scrambled, a cable TV converter/descrambler is generally provided to the subscriber by the cable TV company . This converter/descrambler is necessary for normal viewing of the scrambled channels. (Place your TV on channel 3 or 4, typically one of these channels is used. If this is unknown, consult your cable TV company .) For more specific instructions on installing cable TV, consult your cable TV company. One possible method of utilizing the converter/descrambler provided by your cable TV company is explained below. Please note: RF switch equipped with position A/B (not provided) is required.
A position on the RF switch (not supplied) : You can view all unscrambled channels using the TVs channel keys.B position on the RF switch (not supplied) : You can view the scrambled channels via the converter/descrambler using
the converters channel keys.

CLOSED CAPTION
L How to set Closed Caption
Your TV is equipped with an internal closed caption decoder. Closed Caption is a system which allows you to view conversations, narration, and sound effects in TV programs and home videos as subscript on your TV screen as shown below.
Not all the programs and videos will offer closed caption. Please look for the symbol to ensure that captions will be shown.
Closed Caption broadcast can be viewed in two modes: CAPTION and TEXT. For each mode, two channels are available, CH1 and CH2:
The [CAPTION] mode subscripts dialogues and commentaries of TV dramas and news programs while allowing clear view of the picture.
The [TEXT] mode displays over the picture other various information (such as TV program schedule, weather forecast, etc.) that is independent of the TV programs.
