Important Information
Precautions
WARNI NG
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO
NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTUR E.
The lightning symbol in the triangle tells you that the
voltage inside this product may be strong enough to
cause an electric shock. DO NOT TRY TO SERVICE
THIS PRODUCT YOURSELF.
The exclamation mark in the triangle tells you that
important operating and maintenance instructions
follow this symbol.
CAUTION
TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT USE THIS
POLARIZED PLUG WITH AN EXTENSION CORD
RECEPTACLE OR OTHER OUTLET UNLESS THE
PRONGS CAN BE FULLY INSERTED INTO THE
OUTLET TO PREVENT ANY EXPOSURE OF THE
PRONGS ON THE POLARIZED PLUG.
ATTENTION
POUR PRÉVENIR LES CHOCS ÉLECTRIQUES NE PAS
UTILISER CETTE FICHE POLARISÉE AVEC UN
PROLONGATEUR, UNE PRISE DE COURANT OU UNE
AUTRE SORTIE DE COURANT, SAUF SI LES LAMES
PEUVENT ÊTRE INSÉRÉS À FOND SANS EN LAISSER
AUCUNE PARTIE À DÉCOUVERT.
CAUTION
The plug has one prong wider than the other and will fit only
one way into a standard
electrical outlet (120 volt AC,
Wide prong
60 Hz). If the plug does not
fit into the outlet, try turning
it around. If the plug still does
not fit, the outlet is probably
non-standard and must be
replaced by a qualified electrician. Do not tamper with the plug
or try to force it into a non-standard outlet.
Note to CATV system installers in the USA
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s
attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC, which provides
guidelines for proper grounding, and, in particular, specifies that
the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of
the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
Installing your TV
• Place the TV on the floor or on a sturdy platform. The
mounting surface should be flat and steady. If you install the
TV on a soft floor, make sure that the floor is not damaged
by the weight of the TV.
• Place the TV far enough away from the walls to allow proper
ventilation. This will prevent the TV from overheating and
avoid possible damage to the TV. Avoid dusty areas too.
• Damage may occur if you leave the TV in direct sunlight or
near a heater. Avoid areas subject to extremely high
temperatures or humidity, and temperatures of 41˚F(5˚C) or
lower.
Using your TV
• Do not stand or climb on the TV.
• Do not put any heavy object on top of the TV.
• Do not place containers with liquids such as drinks or
cosmetics on the TV. If any foreign material or water leaks
into the TV, unplug the AC cord and contact your dealer.
• If the room temperature suddenly rises, condensation may
occur on the lenses resulting in picture distortion or color
fading. In such a case, simply wait a while (with the power
on) and the condensation will evaporate.
• Avoid displaying stationary images on your TV screen for
extended periods of time. Stationary patterns generated by a
POP double-window display, computer displays, video
games, stock market reports, etc., can become permanently
engrained on the picture tube. This damage is not protected
by your warranty because it is the result of misuse. If you wish
to use your TV to display still images, reduce brightness and
contrast settings. Never leave a POP double-window,
computer, or video game display unattended.
• Sit approximately 10-25 feet away from the TV. Sitting too
far to the left or right of the screen will cause the picture to
appear dull as will direct sunlight and room lights. Turn the
TV off to check for reflections on the screen. Then remove
the source of any reflections while viewing.
Cleaning your TV
• Clean the TV with a soft, dry cloth. Never use strong solvents
such as thinner or benzine which might damage the finish of
the cabinet. If the cabinet is very dirty, use a damp cloth to
wipe the cabinet clean, then finish with a dry cloth.

If you have not connected electronic equipment before, or you have
been frustrated in the past, you may wish to read this section. (Cables
are not supplied.)
• A coaxial cable is the standard cable that comes in from your
antenna or cable converter box. Coaxial cables use “F”
connectors.
• Audio and video cables are usually color-coded according to use:
yellow for video and red and white for audio. The red audio cable
is for the stereo right channel, and the white audio cable is for
the stereo (or mono) left channel. If you look at the rear panel of
the TV, you will see that the terminals are color-coded in the
same manner as the cables.
• S-video cables provide better picture performance. S-video cables
can only be used with S-video compatible components.
• ColorStream™ cables come in sets of three and provide the best
picture performance. ColorStream cables can only be used with
ColorStream compatible components.
Connecting a VCR
This connection allows you to watch local channels and video
programs, play or record on the VCR while watching TV, and record
from one channel while watching another channel.
You will need:
• one coaxial cable
• one pair of audio cables (one single audio cable for a mono VCR)
• one video cable (one S-video cable for an S-VHS VCR)

receiver is ColorStream-compatible, see page
8).
Do not connect both an S-video cable and a
regular video cable between the TV and DVD
player/satellite receiver at the same time.
Doing so will distort the picture.
Do not connect the DVD player/satellite

Programming the remote control for use with
your audio/video devices
Device code setup

twice. If an invalid code is entered, the mode indicator will blink
one long blink.
4. Point the remote control at the device and press POWER to test
the code.
If the device turns on, you have entered the correct code.
If the device does not respond to the remote control, you may
have entered the wrong code. Repeat steps 3 and 4 using another
code.
5. Press MODE to select the TV mode to control the TV.
Searching and sampling the code of a device (991)
If you do not know the device code for a particular target unit, you
can cycle the remote control through the available codes for that
device mode and sample the functions to find the code that properly
operates the target device. The keys available to be sampled, provided
they are applicable to that mode, are 0, 1, 2, 3, POWER, VOL y,
CH y, PLAY, and STOP. Invalid keys will be ignored while in
program mode.
To cycle through each available device code and sample its functions:
1. Press MODE to select the mode you want to set up.
2. While holding down the RECALL button, press 9 –9 –1.
The remote control will enter program mode.
3. Point the remote control at the target device and press POWER
(or other function buttons that are available to be sampled).
4. If the device responds to the remote control:
Press RECALL to store the device code.
The mode indicator will blink twice and the remote control
will exit the program mode.
If the device does not respond to the remote control:
Press y, and then press POWER.
Repeat this step until the device responds to the remote
control, and then press RECALL.
Note:
• Every time you replace the batteries, you
must reprogram the remote control.
• Some newer VCRs are capable of working
on either of two remote codes.These VCRs
have a switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.”
If your VCR has this kind of switch and
does not respond to any of the codes for
your VCR brand, set the switch to the other
position (VCR1 or VCR2) and reprogram
the remote control
