The important note is located on the rear of the cabinet.

THIS SYMBOL INDICATES THAT DANGEROUS VOLTAGE CONSTITUTING A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK IS PRESENT WITHIN THIS UNIT.

THIS SYMBOL INDICATES THAT THERE ARE IMPORTANT OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE LITERATURE ACCOMPANYING THE APPLIANCE.

Important Safeguards

1.READ INSTRUCTIONS - All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the appliance is operated.

2.RETAIN INSTRUCTIONS - The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.

3.HEED WARNINGS - All warnings on the appliance and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.

4.FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS - All operating and use instructions should be followed.

5.CLEANING - Unplug TV from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning. EXCEPTION: A product that is meant for uninterrupted service and, that for some specific reason, such as the possibility of the loss

of an authorization code for a CATV converter, is not intended to be unplugged by the user for cleaning or any other purpose, may exclude the reference to unplugging the appliance in the cleaning description otherwise required in item 5.

6.ATTACHMENTS - Do not use attachments not recommended by the TV manufacturer as they may cause hazards.

7.WATER AND MOISTURE - Do not use this TV 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.

8.ACCESSORIES - Do not place this TV on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The TV may fall, causing serious injury to someone, and serious damage to the appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended

by the manufacturer, or sold with the TV.

Any mounting of the appliance should follow

the manufacturer’s instructions and should use a mounting accessory recommended by

the manufacturer. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn. AMEUBLES - Cet appareil ne doit être placé

que sur un meuble (avec ou sans roulettes) recommandé par le fabricant. Si vous l’ installez sur un meuble à roulettes, déplacez les deux ensembles avec précaution. Un arrêt brusque, l’utilisation d’une force excessive

et des surfaces irrégulières risquent de déstabiliser l’ensemble et de le renverser.

9.VENTILATION - Slots and openings in the

cabinet and the back or bottom are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the TV and to protect it from

overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the TV on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This TV should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This TV should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.

10.POWER SOURCES - This TV should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company. For TVs intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

11.GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION - This TV is equipped with a

polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

12.POWER-CORD PROTECTION - Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.

13.OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING - If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TV, be sure the antenna or cable 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 No. 70, provides information with respect 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.

Cables not included.

Please purchase the necessary cables at your local store.

5Basic Connection

This section describes how to connect the unit to an antenna, cable/satellite box, etc.

Note:

• Be sure your antenna or other device is connected properly before plugging in the power cord.

[Antenna Cable Connection]

When connecting the unit to an antenna or cable TV company (without cable/satellite box) Connect the RF coaxial cable on your home outlet to the antenna input jack of this unit.

e.g.)

 

VHF / UHF

 

antenna

rear of this unit

RF coaxial cable

or

cable TV company

*Once connections are completed, turn on the unit and begin initial setup.

Channel scanning is necessary for the unit to memorize all available channels in your area. (Refer to “Initial Setup” on page 13.)

Note:

For your safety and to avoid damage to device, please unplug the RF coaxial cable from the antenna input jack before moving the unit.

If you use an antenna to receive analog TV, it should also work for DTV reception. Outdoor or attic antennas will be more effective than settop versions.

To easily switch your reception source between antenna and cable, install an antenna selector.

If you connect to the cable system directly, contact the CATV installer.

[Connection to Cable Box or Satellite Box]

Connect the RF coaxial cable on your home outlet to the input jack of the cable/satellite box.

Use another RF coaxial cable to connect the antenna input jack of the unit to the output jack of the cable/satellite box.
