REGARDING BATTERY CARE

Charge the battery before use.

• The battery used in the product is a lithium-ion battery. Even if the battery is charged and stored, the amount of charge in the battery will drop.

Precautions to be Taken during Charging

• Charge the battery only at temperatures within the range of 50°F to 86°F (10°C to 30°C) (temperatures that are comfortable for people). At lower temperatures it becomes more difficult to charge the battery and the battery deteriorates. It is not possible to sufficiently charge the battery at high temperatures.

Regarding Operating Time and Use under Low Temperatures for the Battery

• The battery has a certain life expectancy. The battery is consumed as time elapses even if the battery is not used. A battery that has been used for about a year may give you less operating time depending on the conditions under which it was stored. If a battery that has been charged correctly operates for a much shorter time than usual, it has reached the end of its life and must be replaced with a new battery.

How to Get the Most out of the Battery

• Make sure to charge the battery until the charge indicator of the product goes off (fully charged). The operating time is shortened when using a battery which has not been fully charged. (For a detailed description of how to charge the battery, refer to page 20.)

• The battery may become hot during charging or during use, but this is not a sign of malfunctioning.

• It may take more time to fully charge a hot battery.

• When the battery is at a low temperature (lower than 50°F

(10°C)) in winter, the operating time may be very short. The battery undergoes an internal chemical reaction in order to generate electricity. When the temperature outside is lower, the chemical reaction becomes less vigorous and operating time becomes shorter.

ENGLISH

• Turn off the power supply frequently when not in use in order to give the battery longer life.

Storage Precautions

• The battery is consumed as time elapses even if the battery is not used. To prevent consumption; (1) If the battery will not be used for a long time, use the

product to run down what is left of the battery charge and set “Battery charge” to “off” in the menu screen. (Refer to page 28.)

(2) Make sure to use the battery at least once every six

months.

REGARDING BATTERY CARE (Continued)

Prohibited use for which safety is not guaranteed.

• Do not try to disassemble or modify the battery. The battery contains safety mechanisms and protection devices. Damaging these safety devices may cause the battery to generate heat or smoke, or to rupture or ignite.

• Do not connect the + and – terminals together with metal such as wires. Do not carry or store the battery together with metal objects such as necklaces and hairpins. Doing so may cause the battery to be short-circuited so as to cause an extremely large amount of electric current to flow, which may cause the battery to generate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite, or may cause metal objects such as wire, necklaces, or hairpins to heat up.

• Do not expose batteries to fire or heat. Doing so may cause insulating materials to melt, damage gas exhaust valves or safety mechanisms, or ignite electrolytic solutions, which may cause the battery to generate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite.

• Do not leave the battery in or near fire, stoves, or other high-temperature locations (of temperatures greater than 140°F (60°C)). If a resin separator is damaged by heat, the battery may become internally short-circuited and this may cause the battery to generate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite.

• Do not expose the battery to water or salt water, or allow the battery to get wet. If the protection device contained in the battery is broken, this may cause the battery to generate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite.

• Do not charge the battery near a fire or in direct sunlight. If the battery becomes hot, the protection device for preventing danger operates to disable the battery from being charged. If the protection device contained in the battery becomes broken, the battery is charged at an abnormal electric current or voltage. An abnormal chemical reaction occurs inside the battery which may cause the battery to generate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite.

• Charge the battery in compliance with the specified charging conditions. If the battery is charged without compliance to the charging conditions (at temperatures greater than the specified temperature, at voltages and electric current greater than the specified amount or with modified chargers), the battery may be overcharged or charged at an abnormal electric current and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur inside the battery, which may cause the battery to generate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite.

• Do not pierce the battery with nails, strike the battery with a hammer, or step on the battery. Doing so may cause the battery to generate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite.

• Do not subject the battery to strong impacts or throw it away. If the protection device contained in the battery becomes broken, the battery is charged at an abnormal electric current or voltage. An abnormal chemical reaction may then occur inside the battery, which may cause the battery to generate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite.

• Do not use the battery if it has been considerably damaged or deformed. This may cause the battery to generate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite.

• Do not solder directly onto the battery. Doing so may cause insulating materials to melt, or damage gas exhaust valves or the safety mechanism, which may cause the battery to generate heat or smoke, rupture or ignite.

• Use a battery case when carrying the battery.

• Keep the battery out of reach of children.

• In the event that the fluid inside the battery gets into one’s

eye, do not rub the eye because this may cause loss of eyesight. Rinse the eye with clean water and consult a doctor immediately. In the event that the fluid becomes attached to skin or clothes, wash it off with clean water immediately as this may cause injury.

Page 10

CORRECT USE OF THE PRODUCT

Precautions Regarding Radio Waves

■ Do not use the product at the following locations. There may be cases where noise occurs or transmission/reception is not possible.

• Locations where magnetic fields, electrostatic or interference occurs due to devices such as Bluetooth, wireless LANs, or

microwave ovens etc. that utilize the same frequency band (2.4 GHz) as the product. (There may be cases where radio waves cannot reach depending on the environment.)

• Keep the product away from a radio devices during use. (There may be cases of noise interference.)

■ Under the same frequency band as the product uses, in addition to Bluetooth, wireless LANs, and microwave ovens etc. that utilize the same frequency band (2.4 GHz) as the product, operation can also take place at on-site radio stations that require a license for mobile object identification used in factories and manufacturing lines etc. and specified low power radio stations.

• Before using the product, make sure that there is no on-site radio stations for mobile object identification or specified low power

radio stations operating in the vicinity of the product.

• If there is any interference occurring to on-site radio stations for mobile object identification due to the product, stop using the

product immediately.

Regarding Range of Usage

■ The product is limited to domestic use.

(There is a possibility that transmission distance may become short depending on the communication environment.)

■ In the following cases, reception may become bad or impossible, which may cause sound and pictures to be interrupted (pictures and sound are stopped), or blocks of noise to appear.

• Using the product in a reinforced concrete building such as a condominium building or a house of a metal structure.

• Using the product at locations near large-scale metallic furniture.

• Using the product in a crowd of people or close to buildings or obstacles, etc.

• Using the product at locations where magnetic fields, electrostatic and interference occur due to devices such as Bluetooth,

wireless LANs, or microwave ovens, etc. that utilize the same frequency band (2.4 GHz) as the product.

ENGLISH

■ Regarding reflected radio waves

• Radio waves that reach a television receiver are radio waves (direct waves) directly transmitted from a transmitter and radio

waves (reflected waves) arriving from various directions as a result of being reflected by walls, furniture, or buildings etc. There are good and bad positions in terms of wave conditions due to the influence of these reflected waves, which may cause poor picture reception. In this case, try changing the location of the TV receiver slightly. There are cases where pictures and sound are distorted or interrupted due to the reflected waves as a result of a person passing over or approaching between the transmitter and the television receiver.

When a signal other than a regular signal is input

• When a signal other than a regular signal that is incompatible with this unit is input, the screen may freeze, but this is not a

malfunction.

• When a signal other than a regular signal is input from the Antenna, AV-IN1, AV-IN2, or AV-IN3 terminals, reception may be bad

depending on the performance of the Wireless Center, and the message “THIS SIGNAL IS NOT COMPATIBLE” will display.

• Signals compatible with the Wireless Center are as follows:

H: 15.625 kHz / V: 50.0 Hz, 59.52 Hz H: 15.73426 kHz / V: 59.94 Hz (Note: Reception may be available with AV-IN4.)

Precaution Regarding Electromagnetic Wave Disturbance

• If electric devices, such as a cellular phone, are used near this unit, electromagnetic wave disturbance may occur between

apparatus. In such cases, the picture quality may decrease and noise may appear.

Charging while Viewing:

The battery will be charged, while you are viewing if “BATTERY CHARGE” is set to “ON” (page 28). In this case, charging takes about 12 hours. To preserve battery performance it is recommended that “BATTERY CHARGE” be set to “OFF” if battery power is not in constant use.

Note:

• Charging time may be longer depending on ambient temperature, battery condition and other factors. Check to make sure the CHARGE indicator is not lit before using.

General Reference for Battery Viewing Time

The viewing time differs according to the BRIGHTNESS setting (page 37).

Note:

• Operating time may be shorter depending on certain conditions such as use in cold climates.

When You Want to Check the Amount of Remaining Battery Power

Press the DISPLAY button on the remote control.

• Although the remaining battery power indicator will flash red

for the first 10 seconds, it will remain lit constantly after that time.

• The amount of remaining charge is only displayed when

operating on battery power.

• The remaining battery power indicator changes according to

battery status, temperature and conditions of use. This indicator should be used as a reference for the amount of battery power remaining.

When Battery is not Charging Properly

• If the CHARGE indicator begins to flash extremely rapidly during charging, this means that charging is not proceeding

normally.

• When the CHARGE indicator flashes at an interval of about a second during charging, the TV main unit is not in an

appropriate temperature range for charging. The temperature range for charging should be approximately between 50°F (10°C) and 86°F (30°C).

• If the CHARGE indicator begins to flash extremely rapidly (at about 3 flashes a second) during charging, this means that

charging is not proceeding normally because the battery may malfunction. Replace the battery with the new one.

Adjusting V-CHIP Settings

• This function allows TV programs to be restricted and TV usage to be controlled based on FCC data. It prevents children from watching violent or sexual scenes that may be harmful.

• Restriction of TV programs includes two ratings that contain information about the program: the MPAA rating and the TV Parental Guidelines. The MPAA rating is restricted by age. TV Parental Guidelines are restricted by age and content.

• Since a TV program may use either the MPAA rating or the TV Guidelines, both should be adjusted for complete control.

CONNECTION SYSTEM WITH VARIOUS WAYS OF BEING USED

Examples of Various Uses

The Wireless Center outputs pictures and sound via transmission to a television receiver of this unit. Various manners of use are possible as it is possible to connect your own main TV and the Wireless Center using a cable.

How the Wireless Center is used

It is possible for the same pictures and programs to be watched separately at different locations.

It is also possible for separate pictures and programs to be enjoyed by one person using a television on a second floor while another person is watching on a main TV in a living room.

Even if the power supply of the Wireless Center is turned off, pictures and sound can be received by the main TV connected to the output terminals (through) and enjoyment is therefore possible even with a single television.

• An antenna through output, and a video 1 (through) output are provided at the LC-15L1U Wireless Center. It is therefore possible for the system to be on without detriment to the advantages of using the main TV currently

being viewed. (Output also takes place when the power supply of the Wireless Center is turned off).

• Only three items of this equipment can be used in the same environment. If more are used, then it may not be possible to watch television due to mutual interference.

2 Cables are fitted in the cover of the table

stand and then fitted into the cable clamps.

Note:

• Game devices must always be connected to the input terminal of the main unit. If a game device is connected to the Wireless Center, you cannot enjoy the game comfortably because of a delay in the transmission of pictures and sound.

• When connecting to both the VIDEO input and S-VIDEO input terminals for AV-IN4, priority is given to the S-VIDEO input terminal.

• When signals from external devices connected to the Wireless Center do not appear to be transmitted to the main unit properly, connect

the external devices to the AV-IN4 terminal of the main unit.

Note:

• Pictures and sound you have recorded cannot be used without permission from the copyright owner, other than for personal enjoyment.

• Transmission of pictures and sound from the Wireless Center to the main unit may take some time. For this reason, a picture that is slightly

delayed from the actual picture is displayed on the main unit. When recording pictures and sound on DVD or video while watching the main unit, it will take about one second from pressing the picture record button on the remote control until actual picture recording starts.

• When recording pictures or watching pictures on another device via the AV-IN2/OUT terminal of the Wireless Center, “AV2-IN/OUT” is set to “OUT ”. If the television power supply is switched “off” using the remote control when the “AV2-IN/OUT” is set to “OUT ”, the power supply of the Wireless Center is also put into a standby state, but output from the AV-IN2/OUT terminal continues as is. Therefore, if the main power supply of the Wireless Center is switched off, output from the AV-IN2/OUT terminal stops.

* In the following cases, the power supply is in a standby state, but output from the AV-IN2/OUT terminal is possible.

• When television main power is “off”.

• When the power supply button of the remote control is “off”.

• Also in cases when communication is not possible due to some fault, output from the AV-IN2/OUT terminal is interrupted. For the purpose

of power conservation, when output from the AV-IN2/OUT terminal is not being used, it is recommended that the main power of the Wireless Center be turned off.

* Even if the main power of the Wireless Center is turned off, the antenna output and video 1 are output.

• Press the BRIGHT button or set the BRIGHTNESS settings.

• Check PICTURE and BLACK LEVEL adjustment.

• The fluorescent lamp may have reached the end of service life.

• Check the batteries of the remote control.

• Make sure the remote sensor window is not under strong lighting.

• The broadcasted EDS signal may be weak. Check the antenna.

• Carry out EZ SETUP, SETTING THE CLOCK again.

• If EDS signal is not sent, set the clock using the MANUAL CLOCK

Setting.

• The radio waves used by the product are high frequency, so that there are features such as direct advance travelling, reflection, refraction, diffraction, interference etc., similar to that of light. The strength of the waves therefore varies depending on the location, which may cause the pictures and sound to become unclear, become wavy, or stop.

• Is the distance between the Wireless Center and the television product too far? Use within a range that the radio waves can reach.

• Are you at a location that is particularly susceptible to electrical noise?

• Set “DISTANCE” to “FAR”.

• The product utilizes wireless transmissions, so that fast moving

images may become distorted, but this is not a malfunction.

The VCR will not operate even though the remote control is operated by facing toward the TV main unit.

• Are there any devices operating in the vicinity of the product such as Bluetooth devices, or wireless LANs, or microwave ovens, etc. that utilize the same frequency band (2.4 GHz) as the product?

• There are good and bad positions in terms of wave conditions with regards to the influence of obstacles and reflectors. Try changing the location of the television product slightly.

• Is the video controller connected?

• Is the transmitter of the video controller facing the infrared receiver

of the remote control for the VCR?

• Does the VCR work when operating the remote control by directly facing the VCR? (If the VCR is still not working, it can be considered that the battery of the remote control has run out.)

• The quality of the broadcast may also be bad.

• Make sure the antenna is facing the correct direction.

• Make sure the outside antenna has not been disconnected.

The picture is doubled or tripled.

The picture is spotted.

There are stripes on the screen or colors fade.

• Make sure the antenna is facing the correct direction.

• Broadcast waves may be reflected from adjacent mountains or buildings.

• There may be interference from automobiles, trains, high-voltage lines, neon

lights, etc.

• There may be interference between the antenna cable and power cable. Try positioning them further apart.

• Is the unit receiving interference from other devices? Transmission antennas of radio broadcasting stations and transmission antennas of amateur radios and cellular phones may also cause interference.

• Use the unit as far apart as possible from devices that may cause possible interference.

■ Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments

• When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, office), the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed. This is not a malfunction, and the unit will recover when the temperature returns to normal.

• Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a heater, as this may cause the cabinet to deform and the LCD panel to malfunction. (Storage temperature: –4°F to +140°F (–20°C to +60°C))

■ It is not a malfunction in the following cases.

• There are cases where reception of pictures is not good because of the distance between the main unit and Wireless Center, or obstacles. Install the main unit and Wireless Center where you can get better pictures by changing the installation location or removing obstacles.

• There may be bad reception of pictures if a microwave is being used nearby.

• Microwave units and the use of the so called “blue tooth function” (W LAN) on cellular phones or notebooks may impair the quality of

the transmission. If this is the case, switch these devices off.
