IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CHILD SAFETY:
It Makes A Difference How and Where You Use Your Flat Panel Display
Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new product, please keep these safety tips in mind:
THE ISSUE
•
The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend and larger fl at panel
displays are popular purchases. However, fl at panel displays are not always supported
on the proper stands or installed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
•
Flat panel displays that are inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves,
desks, speakers, chests or carts may fall over and cause injury.
THIS MANUFACTURER CARES!
•
The consumer electronics industry is committed to making home entertainment enjoyable
and safe.
TUNE INTO SAFETY
One size does NOT fi t all. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the safe
•
installation and use of your fl at panel display.
Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for proper use of this product.
•
Don’t allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television sets.
•
Don’t place fl at panel displays on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as
•
a chest of drawers.
Remember that children can become excited while watching a program, especially
•
on a “larger than life” fl at panel display. Care should be taken to place or install the
display where it cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.
•
Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the fl at panel
display so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children.
WALL MOUNTING: IF YOU DECIDE TO WALL MOUNT YOUR FLAT
PANEL DISPLAY, ALWAYS:
•
Use a mount that has been recommended by the display manufacturer and/or listed
by an independent laboratory (such as UL, CSA, ETL).
•
Follow all instructions supplied by the display and wall mount manufacturers.
•
If you have any doubts about your ability to safely install your fl at panel display,
contact your retailer about professional installation.
•
Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the display is appropriate. Some
wall mounts are not designed to be mounted to walls with steel studs or old cinder
block construction. If you are unsure, contact a professional installer.
•
A minimum of two people are required for installation. Flat panel displays can be
heavy.

Closed Captions and Digital Closed Captions
Your TV is equipped with an internal Closed Caption
decoder. It allows you to view conversations, narration
and sound effects as subtitles on your TV. Closed
Captions are available on some TV programs and on
some VHS home video tapes at the discretion of the
program provider.
Digital Closed Caption service is a new caption service
available only on digital TV programs (also at the
discretion of the service provider). It is a more fl exible
system than the original Closed Caption system,
because it allows for a variety of caption sizes and font
styles. When the Digital Closed Caption service is in
use, it will be indicated by the appearance of a 3-letter
abbreviation that also indicates the language of the
Digital Closed Captions: ENG (English), SPA (Spanish),
FRA (French) or other language codes.
Not all programs and VHS videotapes offer closed
captions. Please look for the “1” symbol to ensure
that captions will be shown.
Press CC.

•
Depending on the number of caption services in the
signal being received, you will see information such as
1/2 or 1/4 displayed.
1/2 means “the fi rst of two services”.
Example:
If a program has three services (Digital CC(ENG), CC1
and Text1), the closed caption display will toggle in this
sequence:
1/3 ENG2/3 CC13/3 Text1Off
•
The CC button keeps a record of the last service
selected in its memory.
If the last closed caption mode (e.g. 1/3 ENG) you
selected is not available for the next program, or on
another channel, the closed caption service that is
available is automatically selected, and this service
appears in parentheses, e.g. “1/3(CC1)”.
Closed Caption services that appear in parentheses
will not be stored in the CC button's memory as your
last selected service. Only services that you have
selected with the CC button are stored.
Closed Caption
information
In the Closed Caption system, there can be more than
one caption service provided. Each is identifi ed by its
own number. The “CC1” and “CC2” services display
subtitles of TV programs superimposed over the
program's picture.
In the Closed Caption system, the “Text1” or “Text2”
services display text that is unrelated to the program
being viewed (e.g., weather or news). These services
are also superimposed over the program currently
being viewed.
Examples:
In a case where there are two closed caption
services provided (for instance, Digital CC(ENG)
and CC1), and Digital CC(ENG) is displayed
as your current selection, if Digital CC(ENG) is
not broadcast for the next program, the other
closed caption service, CC1, will be displayed in
parentheses.
A closed caption service appears in parentheses
because the service you selected is not available
and a different service is displayed on your screen.
“1/1(CC1)” is displayed instead of “1/2/ENG”.
•
When “Power Saving” is set to “Standard” or “Advanced”,
the Power Saving leaf icon appears on the channel
information window. See page 23 for details of Power
Saving settings.
•
See page 29 for detailed closed caption settings.
•
When the program contains no closed caption, “--”
displays in the closed caption information.
•
If the language code, e.g. “ENG”, is not found on Digital TV
programs, “--” will be shown.
•
Four kinds of closed caption service (CC1, CC2, Text1,
Text2) are potentially available, but a broadcast may
contain none or only some of these services at the
discretion of the program provider.
•
When the Sidebar Widget, TV+Web or Web is displayed,

V-Chip
V-CHIP is an electronic fi ltering device built into your
TV. This tool gives parents a great degree of control
over broadcasts accessed by their children. It allows
parents to select programs judged suitable for child
viewing while blocking ones judged not suitable. It
does so automatically once you activate the V-CHIP
feature in your TV. "V-Chip" and "Status" will not be
selectable from the menu if you do not fi rst confi gure
your secret number.
•
The U.S. has two rating systems for viewing content: TV
Parental Guidelines and movie ratings.
•
The TV Parental Guidelines work in conjunction with the
V-CHIP to help parents screen out inappropriate television
shows from their children.
•
Movie ratings are used for original movies rated by the
Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) as watched
on cable TV and not edited for television. The V-CHIP can
also be set to block MPAA-rated movies.
•
The setting automatically enters "Block" for any ratings
below your selection.

If Status is not set to "On", the confi guration settings will
not work.

Canadian Rating Systems (Canadian English ratings
and Canadian French ratings)
•
The TV rating systems in Canada are based on the
Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC) policy on violence in television
programming.
•
While violence is the most important content element to
be rated, the structure developed takes into consideration
other program content like language, nudity, sexuality and
mature themes.
•
When setting the V-CHIP on the Canadian system you
can choose either the Canadian English ratings or the
