RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
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.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE
TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
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 operat-
ing instructions should be adhered to.
4. Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be
followed.
5.
Cleaning - Unplug the unit 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
unit manufacturer as they may cause hazards.
7. Water and Moisture - Do not use this unit near water - for exam-
ple, 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 unit on an unstable
cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The unit 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 unit. 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.
9. Ventilation - Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bot-
tom are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the unit and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This unit should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This unit 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 unit 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 the units intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
11. Grounding or Polarization - This unit is equipped with a polar-
ized 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 sys-
tem is connected to the unit, 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. (Fig. A)
14.
Lightning-For added protection for this unit receiver 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 or cable system. This will prevent damage to the unit due to lightning and power-line surges.

UPPLIED ACCESSORIES
If you need to replace these accessories, please refer to the PART NO. under the illustrations and call our help line mentioned on the front page.
Depending on your antenna system, you may need different types of Combiners (Mixer) or Separators (Splitter). Contact your local electronics store for these items.
For safe operation and satisfactory performance of your unit, keep the following in mind when selecting a place for its installation:
The stand of this TV is folded when you purchased. Place this TV face-down on a flat surface covered with the soft cloth.
Bend the stand slowly to forward until it clicks.
If you want to fold the stand again, insert a thin rod into the hole in the right side of the stand as illustrated, bend the stand back­ward while you keep pushing the hole.
Shield it from direct sunlight and keep it away from sources of intense heat.
Avoid dusty or humid places.
Avoid places with insufficient ventilation for proper heat dissipation. Do not block the ventilation holes at the top or bottom of the unit. Do not place the unit on a carpet because this will block the ventilation holes.
Install unit in a horizontal position.
Avoid locations subject to strong vibration.
Do not place the unit near strong magnetic fields.
Avoid moving the unit to locations where temperature differences are extreme.
Be sure to remove a disc and unplug the AC power cord from the outlet before carrying the unit.
Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.
Do not pull on the power cord when disconnecting it from an AC wall outlet. Grasp it by the plug.
If by accident, water is spilled on your unit, unplug the power cord immediately and take the unit to our Authorized Service Center for servicing.
Do not put your fingers or objects into the unit disc slot
.
Do not place anything directly on top of the unit.
Moisture condensation may occur inside the unit when it is moved from a cold place to a warm place or after heating a cold room or under conditions of high humid­ity. If a DVD is played in a unit which has moisture, it may damage the DVD and the unit. Therefore when the condensation occurs inside the unit, turn the unit on and allow at least 2 hours for the unit to dry out.

CAPTION mode: You can watch dramas, movies and
news while captioning the dialogues and the contents of news.
TEXT mode: You can watch half screen text informa-
tion if you want.
1-2: You may get these captions or text information
by selecting either “1” or “2”. “2” is usually used for a second language if available.
Not all programs are broadcast with closed cap­tions. Your unit is designed to provide error-free closed captions from high quality antenna, cable and VCR signals. Conversely, poor quality sig­nals are likely to result in caption errors or no captions at all. Common signal conditions which may cause caption errors are listed below:
Automobile ignition noise
Electric motor brush noise
Weak snowy reception on TV screen
Multiplex signal reception displaying picture ghosts or airplane flutter
