Install the TV on a stable TV stand and floor which can support the TV set weight. Ensure that the TV stand surface is flat and its area is larger than the bottom area of the TV.

Pull the power cord out by the plug. Do not pull the power cord itself. Even if your TV is turned off, it is still connected to the AC power source (mains) as long as the power cord is plugged in. Unplug the TV before moving it or if you are not going to use it for several days.

Notes

If you connect a monaural VCR, connect the yellow plug to(the yellow jack) and the black plug to -L (MONO) (the white jack).

If you connect a VCR to the 8 (antenna input) terminal, preset the signal output from the VCR to the program number 0 on the TV.

Do not connect video equipment to the t2 (video input) jacks at the front and the rear of your TV at the same time; otherwise the picture will not be displayed properly on the screen.

When no signal is input from the connected video equipment, the TV screen becomes blue.

CAUTION

Do not connect the power cord until you have completed making all other connections; otherwise a minimum leakage current might flow through the antenna and other terminals to ground.

To avoid battery leakage and damage to the remote, remove the batteries from the remote if you are not going to use it for several days. If any liquid that leaks from the batteries touches you, immediately wash it away with water.
