Preparation

Use the remote control unit by pointing it towards the remote control sensor

on
the TV. Objects between the remote control unit and the remote control sensor
may prevent proper operation.

• Do not expose the remote control unit to shock.

In

addition, do not expose the remote control unit to liquids, and do not placeinan area

with high humidity.

• Do not install or place the remote control unit under direct sunlight. The heat may cause

deformation

of

the remote control unit.

• The remote control unit may not work properly if the remote control sensor

on

the TV is

under direct sunlight or strong lighting.

In

such cases, change the angleofthe lighting

or the TV, or operate the remote control unit closer to the remote control sensor.

To enjoy a clearer picture, use an outdoor antenna. The followingisa brief explanationofthe types

of

connections that are used for a coaxial cable. If your outdoor antenna uses a 75-ohm coaxial cable with

an

F-type connector, plug it into the antenna terminal at the rearofthe TV set.

1.

A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type

connector that can easily be attached to a terminal without

tools (Commercially available).

2.

A 300-ohm systemisa flat "twin-lead" cable that can be
attached to a 75-ohm terminal through a 300/75-ohm adapter
(Commercially available).
