PERSONNEL.
CAUTION:
As a safety feature, the AC plug has one prong wider than the other.
It will fit only one way into a standard electrical outlet.
If the plug will not fit into the outlet, try turning it around.
If the plug will not fit either way, the outlet is probably old and
non-standard. You will need to have a new outlet installed by
an electrician.
DO NOT CHANGE THE SAFETY FEATURE OF THE PLUG.
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 OF THE POLARIZED PLUG.
NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that
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.
Downward spot lights or fluorescent lights in an
overhead "Honeycomb" prevent direct
illumination of the screen.
If you install the TV close to a wall, keep a
enough space (<!=>; 10 inches or more) around
the TV.
Where to install
Place the TV on the floor or on a sturdy platform. The mounting
surface should be flat and steady. When placing the TV on a
soft floor, make sure that the floor is not damaged by the
weight of the TV.
Air Circulation
Place the TV far enough from the walls to allow proper
ventilation. This will prevent the TV from overheating and avoid
possible damage to the TV. Avoid dusty places too.
Heat Damage
Damage may occur if you leave the TV in direct sunlight or near
a heater. Avoid places subject to extremely high temperatures
or humidity, or to temperatures of 41°F (5°C) or lower.
Power Supply
Plug into an electrical outlet with standard household power
(120 volt AC, 60 Hz). Do not change the plug's safety prong. See
page 2.
Moisture Condensation
If the room temperature suddenly rises (or if the TV is moved
from a cool place to a hot place), dew 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
dew will disappear.
Best Viewing
Position the TV approximately 10'25 feet away. Sitting too far to the left or right of the screen will cause the picture to
appear dull as will direct sunlight and/or room lights. Turn the TV off to check for reflections on the screen. Then
remove any source of reflections when viewing.

To enjoy the sound of the DSP Surround or Dolby Pro
Logic Surround features, you must mount the speakers
to the left and right, on a shelf or on a wall behind your
normal viewing position. See page 39 for details.
Note;
You can get the best surround performance when you
install the speakers slightly above your viewing position
while watching TV.
CAUTIONS
* If the speakers are mounted on a wall, hang them
from the opening provided on their back panels.
• Care should be taken when choosing speaker
mounting hardware to insure compatibility with the
material of the wall. Do not use mounting hardware
with thin and/or soft wall materials, as the speaker
may fall and cause personal injury or be damaged.
♦Note;
The REAR SPEAKER terminals can
be used only for the supplied
speakers.
Do not connect any other speakers to
these terminals.

Antenna/Cable TV
INTRODUCTION
Connection
• You can use either an indoor or outdoor antenna to receive VHF and/or UHF channels.
• Channels 2-13 are VHF channels, and channels 14-69 are UHF channels.
• We recommend using an outdoor antenna for better picture quality.
• You can receive Cable TV by contacting your local cable company.
• Cable TV delivers both VHF and UHF channels and other channels not available to
your antenna.
Types of antenna cables
Shown below are two basic types of antenna cables.
Signals from a home antenna may be conveyed by either type. Cable TV
signals will always be conveyed by a 75 ohm coaxial cable.
@ A 75 ohm coaxial cable is generally a round cable with F-type
connectors that can easily be attached to a terminal without tools.
Optional F-type connector
@ A 300 ohm cable is a flat "twin-lead" cable that can be attached to a
terminal through an antenna adapter supplied as an accessory.
Antenna connection panel
There are two separate 75 ohm F-type connector terminals and a
converter output terminal as shown below.

IANT(75£2)I
ANT-1 OUT ANT-2
The ANT-1 and ANT-2 terminals are for connecting a VHF/UHF antenna
or a cable TV system. The signal, which is input on the ANT-1, also is
output from the OUT terminal whenever the RF switcher in the TV is in
the ANT-2 position. You can switch between the ANT-1 and ANT-2
positions by pressing the ANT 1/2 button on the Remote Control or the
ANT/VIDEO button on the TV. See page 22.

Antenna/Cable TV
Connection (continued)
Cable TV connection
Generally, the incoming cable for a cable TV system can be connected directly to the TV antenna terminal just like a
home antenna connection. (A-1)
But some cable companies offer "premium pay channels". Since the signals of these premium pay channels are
scrambled, a cable TV converter/decoder is generally provided to the subscribers by the cable TV company. This
decoder box is necessary for normal viewing of the scrambled channels. We recommend that you consult your cable
TV company for more specific instructions on installing cable TV. (A-2)

Note: You can connect another signal source, like a cable TV system or video game, to the ANT-2 terminal.
Refer to CAUTION on page 48.
(A-2) Cable with a decoder box (Unscrambled and Scrambled channels)
• The unscrambled channels will come through the
ANT-1 terminal whenever the ANT1/2 button on the
Remote Control, or the ANTA/IDEO button on the TV,
is in "ANT 1" mode.
• The scrambled channels from the decoder box will
come through the ANT-2 terminal whenever the
ANT1/2 button, or the ANTA/IDEO button, is in "ANT
2" mode.
• Set the TV and the VCR on channel 3 or 4 to match
the output channel of the converter.
Note:
The decoding device may or may not be a part of the
cable converter.

• If you connect both VFIF and UHF lead-in cables, use a U/V mixer {not supplied). (See page 9.)
• VIDEO/AUDIO connections from the VCR to the TV are required for stereo tape playback from stereo VCR's.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
Using the Remote Control
• With this Remote Control, you can operate your TV and most models of remote
controlled VCR's and cable TV converters even if they are different brands. See next
page.
Battery installation
Place the Remote Control face down and remove
1
the battery cover.
Insert two "AA" size alkaline batteries, matching
the + and - signs on each battery with the + and
- signs of the battery compartment.
Slide the battery cover shut until the lock snaps.
CAUTIONS
• Do not throw your batteries into a fire. Dispose of
your batteries in a designated disposal area.
• Do not combine used batteries with new ones.
• Do not mix battery types.
Tips for best operation
• For optimum performance, aim the Remote Control
directly at the TV from a distance of no more than 28
feet (8.5m). Be sure there is no obstruction between
the Remote Control and the TV.
• If your Remote Control does not always adjust the TV
as you wish, you probably need to replace the
batteries. Use alkaline batteries for longer use.
• If the Remote Control will not be used for a long
period of time or when the batteries are worn out,
remove the batteries to prevent leakage.
• Do not drop, dampen or disassemble the Remote
Control.

If more than one number is listed, try each one separately until you
find the one that works.
Set the Mode selection switch to VCR (or CABLE).
2
Hold down RECALL while pressing the Number buttons for the
three digit code number for your brand of VCR (or converter).
3
The transmit indicator lights up for 1 second when the
programming is completed.
When an operation error has occurred, the indicator blinks.
Press RECALL again to reset.
Point the Remote Control at the VCR (or at the converter) and press
POWER to test the code number.
—If the right number was entered, the VCR should turn on.
—If the VCR does not respond to the Remote Control, repeat steps
1 to 4 with another code number.
Follow the instructions on page 18 if the VCR does not respond,
even though you have programmed the Remote Control following
