2012/10/3016:20:26

• Outdoor Antenna Grounding — If an outside antenna is
connected to the television equipment, be sure the antenna
system is grounded so as to provide some protection against
voltage surges and built-up static charges.

Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70,

provides information with regard to proper grounding of the
mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire
to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,
location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

• Water and Moisture — Do not use this product near water - for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or
laundry tub; in a wet basement; or near a swimming pool; and the like.

• Stand — Do not place the product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod or table. Placing the product on an unstable base
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.

• Selecting the location — Select a place with no direct sunlight and good ventilation.

• 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 Liquid Crystal panel used in this product is made of glass. Therefore, it can break when the product is dropped or
applied with impact. Be careful not to be injured by broken glass pieces in case the panel breaks.

• Heat — The product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other
products (including amplifi ers) that produce heat.

• The Liquid Crystal panel is a very high technology product with 2,073,600 pixels, giving you fi ne picture details.

Occasionally, a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fi xed point of blue, green or red. Please note that

this does not affect the performance of your product.

• Lightning — For added protection for this television equipment during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage to
the equipment due to lightning and power-line surges.

• Power Lines — An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric
light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system,
extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

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

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

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

• To prevent fi re or shock hazard, do not expose this product to dripping or splashing.

No objects fi lled with liquids, such as vases, should be placed on the product.

• Do not insert foreign objects into the product. Inserting objects in the air vents or other openings may
result in fi re or electric shock. Exercise special caution when using the product around children.

Precautions when transporting the TV

• When transporting the TV, never carry it by holding or otherwise putting pressure onto the display. Be sure to always
carry the TV by two people holding it with two hands — one hand on each side of the TV.

Caring for the Cabinet

• Use a soft cloth (cotton, fl annel, etc.) and gently wipe the surface of the cabinet.

• Using a chemical cloth (wet/dry sheet type cloth, etc.) may deform the components of the main unit cabinet or cause
cracking.

• Wiping with a hard cloth or using strong force may scratch the surface of the cabinet.

• If the cabinet is very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth (cotton, fl annel, etc.) soaked in neutral detergent diluted with water and
thoroughly wrung out, and then wipe with a soft dry cloth.

• Avoid using benzene, thinner, and other solvents, as these may deform the cabinet and cause the paint to peel off.

• Do not apply insecticides or other volatile liquids.

Also, do not allow the cabinet to remain in contact with rubber or vinyl products for a long period of time. Plasticizers

inside the plastic may cause the cabinet to deform and cause the paint to peel off.

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 system is a fl at “twin-lead” cable that can be attached
to a 75-ohm terminal through a 300/75-ohm adapter (Commercially
available).

NOTICE

When connecting the RF cable to the TV set, do not tighten F-type
connector with tools.
If tools are used, it may cause damage to your TV set. (The breaking
of internal circuit, etc.)

Closed Captions and Digital Closed Captions

ĸ

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 DTVCC.

Not all programs and VHS videotapes offer closed
captions. Please look for the “1” symbol to ensure
that captions will be shown.

In the Closed Caption system, there can be more
than one caption service provided. Each is identifi ed
by its own number. The “CC1”, “CC2”, “CC3” and
“CC4” services display subtitles of TV programs
superimposed over the program's picture.

In the Closed Caption system, the TEXT1, TEXT2,
TEXT3 or TEXT4 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.

Press CC.

On: Displays the closed caption.

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 Canadian French
ratings.

C: Children: Intended for younger children under the age of 8 years.

Pays careful attention to themes that could threaten their sense of
security and well-being.

C8+: Children over 8 years old: Contains no portrayal of violence as the

preferred, acceptable, or only way to resolve confl ict; nor encourage
children to imitate dangerous acts which they may see on the screen.

G: General: Considered acceptable for all age groups. Appropriate

viewing for the entire family, contains very little violence, physical,
verbal or emotional.

PG: Parental Guidance: Intended for a general audience, but may not

be suitable for younger children (under the age of 8) because it could
contain controversial themes or issues.

14+: Over 14 years: Could contain themes where violence is one of

the dominant elements of the storyline, but it must be integral to the
development of plot or character. Language usage could be profane
and nudity present within the context of the theme.

18+: Adults: Intended for viewers 18 years and older and might contain

depictions of violence, which while related to the development of plot,
character or themes, are intended for adult viewing. Could contain
graphic language and portrayals of sex and nudity.

• When external equipment is connected via an HDMI cable, you may need to
confi gure the audio to be output through the HDMI cable.

• When audio is not output from external equipment connected to the PC IN or
HDMI IN 1 terminal, check the "PC Audio Select" setting. Page 21

• Even when external equipment is connected using an HDMI-certifi ed cable, an audio
cable connection may be required depending on the type of equipment and the
media being played back. In this case, in addition to connecting an HDMI-certifi ed
cable to the HDMI IN 1 terminal, connect a ø 3.5 mm stereo minijack cable to the
AUDIO IN terminal and set "PC Audio Select" to "HDMI1". Page 21

• When connecting a PC via an HDMI-certifi ed cable, check the following:

- Is the audio output of the PC confi gured correctly? Check the audio output

settings and output audio format in Sound Properties on the PC.

Only PCM format audio can be output. Compressed audio (with a sampling rate of
32kHz, 44.1kHz, or 48kHz) and DTS format audio cannot be output.

- Depending on the board, only video signals may be output. In this case, in addition

to connecting an HDMI-certifi ed cable to the HDMI IN 1 terminal, connect a ø 3.5
mm stereo minijack cable to the AUDIO IN terminal and set "PC Audio Select" to
"HDMI1". Page 21

• If you are using a DVI-HDMI conversion cable to connect external equipment to the
TV, check the following:

- Is an audio cable connected? The DVI-HDMI conversion cable is for video only.

Connect a ø 3.5 mm stereo minijack cable to listen to the audio.

- Is HDMI IN 1 being used? When the TV is connected to another HDMI IN terminal,

the audio and video are not output together even if a ø 3.5 mm stereo minijack
cable is connected to the shared AUDIO IN terminal for PC IN and HDMI IN 1.

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 Liquid Crystal panel to malfunction.

Storage temperature: f4°F to e140°F (f20°C to e60°C)
