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 ones
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.

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.

9. Move the TV main unit to the desired location and check for correct reception
Correct reception may not be possible in locations where radio waves cannot reach or when other
conditions exist that obstruct the radio waves. In this case, change the location of the receiver to a place where it receives signals correctly.
Since the “CHANNEL of the TRANSMISSION SETTING is set to AUTO, the viewing conditions may
improve when the setting is reset.
Note:
When watching TV with the built-in battery in the condition in which this unit was purchased, the battery does not have enough charge left. Use after charging the battery sufficiently. (See page 20.)
As this unit transmits and receives video and audio signals from the Wireless Center using radio waves, operation using the remote control will be delayed by approximately 1 second.

The remaining battery power indicator is displayed constantly regardless of whether the on-screen display is on or off when the battery level is low.
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.

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 AV-IN1 (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.

Cautions regarding installation of video controller
The position of the infrared receiver of the remote control varies depending on the manufacturer or the type of the video cassette recorder. Generally, it is a small round-shaped part close to the liquid crystal display portion.
Make sure that the transmitter of the video controller is facing the infrared receiver of the remote control.
When installing the video controller, try first to transmit remote control signals from the equipment connected with the
Wireless Center to the TV main unit to find a position where the connected equipment can be operated.
Note:
Regarding video controller
Connect the VIDEO output terminal and AUDIO output terminals of equipment to play an image to AV-IN1/2/3 on the Wireless Center respectively. After that, connect the video controller to the video controller terminal of Wireless Center.
When installing video controller, make sure that this transmitter is facing the infrared receiver of the remote control for the connected equipment. It is possible to operate a connected equipment by facing the remote control for the equipment connected to the Wireless Center toward the infrared receiver of the remote control for the TV main unit and pressing the button.
Depending on the external equipment that is connected, you may not be able to use the remote control to operate it, as its remote control signal is different.

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 TV main unit may take some time. For this reason, a picture that is
slightly delayed from the actual picture is displayed on the TV main unit. When recording pictures and sound on DVD or VCR while watching the TV 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 . (See page 39.) 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. 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 AV-IN1 are output.

The radio waves used by the product are at a high frequency, so that there are features such as direct advance traveling, 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 TV main unit 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.

TROUBLESHOOTING (Continued)
Antenna
Problem Check item
The reception may be weak.
The picture is not sharp.
The picture moves.
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 TV main unit and Wireless Center, or obstacles. Install the TV 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.
