Important Safety Precautions

• Cleaning — Unplug the AC cord
from the AC outlet before cleaning
the product. Use a damp cloth to
clean the product. Do not use liquid
cleaners or aerosol cleaners.

• Water and moisture — Do not use
the product near water, such as
bathtub, washbasin, kitchen sink,
laundry tub, swimming pool and in a
wet basement.

• Do not place vases or any other
water-fi lled containers on this
product.

The water may spill onto the product

causing fi re or electric shock.

• Stand — Do not place the product
on an unstable cart, stand, tripod
or table. Doing so can cause the
product to fall, resulting in serious
personal injuries as well as damage
to the product. Use only a cart,
stand, tripod, bracket or table
recommended by the manufacturer
or sold with the product. When
mounting the product on a wall, be
sure to follow the manufacturer's
instructions. Use only the mounting
hardware recommended by the
manufacturer.

• The LCD panel used in this product
is made of glass. Therefore, it can
break when the product is struck
forcefully or with a sharp object. If
the LCD panel is broken, be careful
not to be injured by broken glass.

• Heat sources — Keep the product
away from heat sources such as
radiators, heaters, stoves and other
heat-generating products (including
amplifi ers).

• To prevent fi re, never place any type
of candle or naked fl ames on the
top or near the TV set.

• To prevent fi re or shock hazard, do
not place the AC power cord under
the TV set or other heavy items.

• Do not place heavy objects on this
product or stand on it. Doing so
could cause injury if the product
overturns. Take special care near
children and pets.

• When relocating the product
placed on a cart, it must be moved
with utmost care. Sudden stops,
excessive force and uneven fl oor
surface can cause the product to fall
from the cart.

• Ventilation — The vents and other
openings in the cabinet are designed
for ventilation. Do not cover or block
these vents and openings since
insuffi cient ventilation can cause
overheating and/or shorten the life
of the product. Do not place the
product on a bed, sofa, rug or other
similar surface, since they can block
ventilation openings. This product is
not designed for built-in installation;
do not place the product in an
enclosed place such as a bookcase
or rack, unless proper ventilation
is provided or the manufacturer's
instructions are followed.

The LCD panel is a very high technology product
with 3,147,264 thin fi lm transistors, giving you fi ne
picture details.
Due to the very large number of pixels, occasionally
a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen
as a fi xed point of blue, green or red.
This is within product specifi cations and does not
constitute a fault.

Precautions when
transporting the TV

Be sure to always carry the TV
by two people holding it with two
hands — one hand on each side
of the TV.

• Do not display a still picture for a long time, as this could
cause an afterimage to remain.

• Install the product on the place where the AC cord can
be unplugged easily from the AC outlet, or from the AC
INPUT terminal on the rear of the product.

Troubleshooting

Problem

• No power.

• Unit cannot be operated.

• Remote control unit does not
operate.

• Picture is cut off.

• Strange colour, light colour, or
dark, or colour misalignment.

• Power is suddenly turned off.

• No picture.

• No sound.

• The TV sometimes makes a
cracking sound.

Possible Solution

• Check if you pressed POWER on the remote control unit. (See page 13.)
If the indicator on the TV lights up red, press POWER.

• Is the AC cord disconnected? (See page 7.)

• Has the power been turned on? (See page 13.)

• External infl uences such as lightning, static electricity, etc., may cause improper
operation. In this case, operate the unit after fi rst turning the power off the TV or
unplugging the AC cord and re-plugging it in after 1 or 2 minutes.

• Are batteries inserted with polarity (e, f) aligned? (See page 5.)

• Are batteries worn out? (Replace with new batteries.)

• Are you using it under strong or fl uorescent lighting?

• Is a fl uorescent light illuminated to remote control sensor?

• Is the image position correct? (See page 28.)

• Are screen mode adjustments such as picture size made correctly? (See pages 29
to 31.)

• Adjust the picture tone. (See pages 23 to 25 and 33.)

• Is the room too bright? The picture may look dark in a room that is too bright.

• Check the colour system setting. (See pages 19 and 34.)

• Check the input signal setting. (See page 33.)

• The unit's internal temperature has increased.

Remove any objects blocking vent or clean.

• Check the power control setting. (See page 35.)

• Is sleep timer set? (See page 15.)

• Is connection to other equipment correct? (See pages 42 to 45)

• Has input signal setup been done correctly after connection? (See page 33.)

• Is the correct input selected? (See page 33.)

• Is picture adjustment correct? (See pages 23 to 25.)

• Is the antenna connected properly? (See page 8.)

• Is “On” selected in “Audio Only”? (See page 33.)

• Is the volume too low? (See page 15.)

• This is not a malfunction. This happens when the cabinet slightly expands and contracts
according to change in temperature. This does not affect the TV's performance.

Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments

• When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, offi ce), 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: f20°C to e60°C.

RS-232C port specifi cations

PC Control of the TV

• When a program is set, the TV can be controlled from the PC using the RS-232C terminal.
The input signal (PC/video) can be selected, the volume can be adjusted and various other adjustments and

settings can be made, enabling automatic programmed playing.

• Attach an RS-232C cable cross-type (commercially available) to the supplied Din/D-sub RS-232C for the
connections.

NOTE

• This operation system should be used by a person who is accustomed to using PCs.

Communication conditions

Set the RS-232C communications settings on the PC to match the communications conditions of the TV. The
communications settings of the TV are as follows:

Baud rate:

Data length:

Parity bit:

Stop bit:

Flow control:

9,600 bps

8 bits

None

1 bit

None

Communication procedure

Send the control commands from the PC via the RS-232C connector.
The TV operates according to the received command and sends a response message to the PC.
Do not send multiple commands at the same time. Wait until the PC receives the OK response before sending the
next command.
