WELCOME

Welcome into the family of I[-1TEO- Color Television cwners. This guide provides instructions on how to operate your new TV. It is supplemented by a booklet containing Safety Tips. We urge you to read these publications carefully so that you will receive full enjoyment from your new

I[--ITE[Z_- TV for many years to come.

Your new TV has been designed and built to give you the very best in quality, features and performance. There are thousands of II'--1TE[_- authorized service centers throughout the U.S., Canada and Mexico who can attend promptly and effec- tively to ordinary service needs.

If you should have an unusual performance or service problem that cannot be satisfactorily resolved by your lr-ITEG-

dealer or IF-Iq-EG3. authorized service center, contact us at:

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

Before you install your TV...

Ventilation -- Proper ventilation keeps your TV

running cool. Air circulates through perforations

,I in _he back and bottom of the cabinet. Do not

block these vents or you will shorten the life of your TV.

Power Source -- Your TV is designed to operate

on normal household current, 120 volt 60 Hertz AC. I)o not attempt to operate it on DC current. Power Cord -- Your power cord has a polarized

i_ plug as required by Underwriters' Laboratories. It

has one regular blade and one wide blade and fits

_I only one way into a standard electrical outlet. If

the blades will not enter either way, your outlet is very old and non-standard. A new outlet should be installed by a qualified electrician.

Safe Operation -- Your TV is manufactured and

tested with your safety in mind. However, unusual stress caused by dropping or mishandling, expo-

sure to flood, fire, rain or moisture, or accidental

spilling of liquids into the TV, can result in poten- tial electrical shock or fire hazards. If this hap- pens, have your TV checked by a service technician before using it again.

PLEASE READ AND OBSERVE EACH SAFETY POINT IN THE "SAFETY TIPS" FOLDER WHEN IN- STALLING AND USING YOUR TV.

VIDEO GAMES AND OTHER FIXED PATTERN DISPLAY CAUTION -- If you use your TV for video games, teletext or other fixed displays, avoid setting the BRIGHTNESS control for an excessively bright picture. A bright, fixed pattern, if used for long periods of lime, can result in a permanent imprint on the TV picture tube. You can reduce this possibility by alternating the use of the fixed pattern display with normal TV picture viewing, by turning down the CONTRAST control for sustained fixed pattern use, and by turning off the fixed pattern display when not in use.

PLUGGING IN YOUR TV -- Be sure to plug your TV into

an "unswitched" AC power source. The "switched" AC out- lets found on some video equipment will not continue supply- ing power to the TV once the equipment is turned off. If the

power to the TV is interrupted, you will have to reset the clock

in the TV to the current time.

PICTURE SCREEN CLEANING -- Use a soft cloth mois- tened with warm water and rub lightly in the soiled areas of

the screen. DO NOT USE A "]?ISSUE OR PAPER TOWEL, AS THESE MAY DAMAGE SURFACE. Wipe only in the vertical (up/down) direction (along the grooves). If there is a dirt buildup, a mild solution of warm water and Ivory dish- washing detergent may be used. Use dry soft cloth to dry the screen. Care should be taken to avoid scratches or damage to

the screen surface. NOTE -- The TV screen is easily damaged. Avoid acciden-

tal contact with the screen.

INTRODUCTION

METHODS OF OPERATION

UNIVERSAL REMOTE CONTROL

flVTRODUCTION

This universal remote control operates the common features of most, but not all, models and brand,; of IR (infrared) controlled TVs, VCRs, cable boxes, video disc players, and audio equipment. The remote may provide functions that are not available ,an your equip- eaent, e.g., menu operations. Some functions of optional equipment may not be controlled by this remote. In such cases, use the criginal remote control for your equipment.

BATTERY INSTALLATION

Batteries are provided, but must be installed before using the remote control. When it no longer :functions normally, or when it loses memory, replace the batteries with two high-quality, alkaline, size AAA batteries. Match plus with plus (+ with +), nfinus with minus (- with -) in the battery compartment.

Unless your equipment responds to the factory preset codes, i.e.. 101 for TV, 201 for VCR, 353 for CABLE, and 401 for

AUX., you will need to reprogram the remote with the codes

of your particular equipment after you replace batteries.

NOTES:

rn Do not place heavy objects on top of the remote control

keys. Prolonged unintentional operation of the remote short- ens battery life.

rn Remove the batteries if the remote will not be used for a

month or inore.

THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR

DAMAGE CAUSED BY BATTERY LEAKAGE.

UNIVERSAL REMOTE CONTROL

PROGRAMMING YOUR REMOTE

If you are using Inteq products, the remote is programmed for the most commonly used codes. For other brands -- or if your remote fails to control your Inteq products -- you will have to progrmn the remote.

Follow these steps t'or each product you are using:

1. Look up the three-digit code for your brand (such as Zenith) and type of equipment (such as VCR) in the code table on the following page.

2. Press and hold PRG with a small blunt object until the indicator lights (about three seconds).

3. Press TV, VCR, CABLE, or AUX to select the product you want your remote to control. (Use CABLE or AUX, to program your remote for a sec, ond TV or VCR or to program your remote for a video disc player or audio equipment.)

4. Key ir_ the three-digit code for your equipment, then

press ENTER/TUNE. The indicator light should

flash, 1:hen turn off to indicate tl_at the code was accepted. If the indicator stays c,n, repeat step:s 3 and 4 or try using a different code.

5. Write the codes that operate yc,ur equipment on the label inside the battery compartment for future reference.

To erase all code programming and return to the factory preset codes, key in code 9--1-1 when programming the remote.

NOTES:

t_ You may cancel programming at any time by pressing

PRG.

SPECIAL FEATURES

during programming. Once programmed, hold down the AUX key and press 1, 2 or 3, to access the additional AUX +1, 2 or 3

mode.

ing if available on your equipment. First program your remote with the brand code for your cable device using the CABLE or AUX key. Then repeat the programming steps, again using the CABLE or AUX key, but key in code 3-9-9 instead of a brand code.

To restore TV volume/mute control to the CABLE or AUX mode, reprogram your cable code into that mode.

Amplifier Volume Override You may use your remote to override your TV, VCR or video

disk player's volume functions with your amplifier's volume and muting.

1. Program your amplifier code into the CABLE mode or one of the AUX modes.

ume and mute.

UNIVERSAL REMOTE CONTROL

AUTO FIND OPTION

If you have tried all the codes listed for your brand and type of product in the code table, and none of those codes operate your equipment, you can use Auto Find to search for the code you need.

REMOTE CONTROL Z-TRAK

PROGRAMMING YOUR Z-TRAK REMOTE

Your Z-Trak remote is already programmed to work with most Zenith VCR's. If you have a non-Zenith VCR, or if your Zenith VCR does not respond to your Z-Trak remote, you will need to program your remote as follows:

1. Rel!er to the table of VCR Codes, in this section of the guide. Locate the 3-digit number which corre- sponds to your brand of VCR.

2, Make sure your TV is turned on.

3. While pointing the Z-Trak remote towards your Zeaith TV, simultaneously hold the MUTE and ENTER keys until the TV displays a VCR "Setup" screen (about three seconds). The VCR key will also light upon entering the Programming mode.

4, Notice that the current VCR brand code (initially

"201") is displayed on the TV screen. Roll the track-

ball up or down (or use CHAN Up/Down) to choose

the 3-digit number of your VCR.

5. When the correct 3-digit number is displayed on the

TV screen, use the POWER key to make sure that your VCR turns on and off properly. If it does not respond, refer to the VCR Codes table to select a different 3-digit number.

6. If your VCR turns on and off successfully, press the trackball (or ENTER) to save the current VCR brand code. The setup screen will disappear from the TV. Also, the VCR key will flash 3 times upon exiting the Programming mode. The remote will be in the VCR mode.

7. Now try other controls on your VCR, such as Play, Rewind, etc., to make sure that the correct VCR brand code numher was selecl:ed. (If not, repeat steps 3 to 7.)

8. The MUTE key can be pressed at any time to cancel Programming mode. The original VCR brand code will remain unchanged.

NOTE: Only the VCR mode can be programmed.

9. The Z-Trak remote will exit Programming mode automatically after 60 seconds if no key press or

lrackball movement is detected

AUTO FIND OPTION

If you have tried all 3-digit codes listed for your VCR manufac- turer, and none of them operate your VCR, you will need to try "AutoFind" to see if a different code will operate your VCR:

1. Make sure your VCR is turned on.

2. Simultaneously hold the MUTE and ENTER keys

until the VCR key lights up (about three seconds).

ENTER is pressed.

5. Now try other controls on your VCR, such as Play, Rewind, etc., to make sure that the correct VCR

brand code number was selected. (If not, repeat steps 2 to 4.)

6. The MUTE key can be pressed at any time to cancel AutoFind mode. The original VCR brand code will remain unchanged.

7. The remote will exit AutoFind mode automatically after 60 seconds if no key press or trackball move- ment is detected.

1. Make sure that your Z-Trak remote is in the TV mode (rather than VCR mode), by pressing the TV button on the top.

Press the trackball. A small square, known as the pointer, appears in the middle of the screen. It should be blue, indicating TV mode. If you have StarSight, the pointer may be red, indicating StarSight me)de. The next step tells you how to switch modes.

The pointer is moved by rolling the trackball up, down, left, and right. Move the pointer to the left edge of the screen. A column of TV options appears. The icon at the top indicates which mode is ac,tive -- TV or StarSight (if connected). A TV icon represents TV mode; a circle with a star represents StarSight mode. You can switch between the two modes by locating the pointer on the icon and pressing the trackball. The icon switches and the pointer changes color.

Set the mode to TV (a blue pointer).

The various menus are not all visible on the screen simultane-

ously. Each menu appears when you move the pointer on top of it.

NOTE: Whenever tile text reads "point to the option", it means "position the pointer on the option".

4. To make the pointer disappear, move it to the center of the screen and press the trackball.

Wood Cabinets or Cabinet Components Use any good fur- niture cleaner and polish. Regular care will help preserve the

finish.

PICTURE SCREEN CLEANING Use a soft cloth moistened with warm water and rub lightly in

the soiled areas of the screen. DO NOT USE A TISSUE OR PAPER TOWEL, AS THESE MAY DAMAGE SURFACE. Wipe only in the vertical (up/down) direction (along the grooves). If there is a dirt buildup, a raild solution of warm water and Ivory dishwashing detergent may be used. Use dry

soft cloth to dry the screen. Care sl_or ld be taken to avoid scratches or damage to the screen surface.

the current time.

PICTURE INTERFERENCE

Your rFV picture may be affected by interference caused by

one or a number of factors. These include:

Speckled or Streaked Picture Can be caused by nearby auto-

mobile ignition, electrical appliances, etc. This is most notice-

able in weak signal areas.

Snow in Picture Caused by insufficient signal. Usually

caused by the TV being located too far from the TV station or

by an improper antenna installation.

Ghosts or Reflections Caused by signals being reflected from surrounding buildings, water tanks, or other high struc-

tures. Radio Signal Police, amateur or CB radio transmitters may

cause interference. These interference problems can often be corrected through

the use o1' a better antenna, signal _nnplifiers, or various filter devices. See your TV dealer for addi:ional information, and ac-

cessories available for your projection TV.

206-2950-0 A - 2

Step 3. Checking Your StarSight Setup

If you do not have a VCR or Cable Box, proceed to number 4.

Now that you've activated StarSight, the final step is to test your equipment setup. Here's how:

Press ENTER/TUNE on your remote control when

you see the "Congratulations!" message. StarSight will now guide you through a series of

on-screen displays. Please follow the instructions carefully. ,All you have to do is respond to the on-screen prompts. If you're using a VCR, you'll be prompted to insert a videotape that can be used for a 30-second recording test.

Find the Cable Box and VCR codes on your StarSight Checklist.

If you've listed more than one code for a given brand of Cable Box and VCR, don't worry: StarSight lets you test each code until the correct one has been found.

Be sure the Remote Emitters you placed previously are positioned according to the instructions earlier in

this section.

Follow the on-screen instructions until you see a screen that says: Congratulations?

If you have any difficulty finding the correct code or getting your VCR or Cable Box to respond, call the StarSight Help Desk at (800) 628-STAR.

Your StarS!ight System i:_rtow all set up and ready to collect program information. You'll begin to receive StarSight program information whenever your TV is turned off or turned to your PBS station.

In_itially, it will take between 4 and 12 hours to

collect program informw!ion, so we recommend that

you simply wait overnight. While your qYv,is off, it

will gather the information that it needs. Following

this initial process, your system will automatically

be updated with the latest program information any

time your TV is turned off

YOU SHOULD ALSO KNOW... It is important that you:

• Always be sure your TV set is plugged in.

• Always leave your Cable Box ON, otherwise you risk losing your StarSight program information.

• Be sure you leave your VCR OFF when it's not being used. If you forget to turn off your VCR, a scheduled recording cannot occur.

• It will normally take from 3 to 5 seconds for Cable Box channels to change. This is the time it takes for the Remote Emitter's infrared signal to communicate with your Cable Box.

Quick Reference Guide

This section of the guide discusses the use of StarSight with the Z-Trak trackball remote. Operation with the Z-Trak is different than with conventional remote controls. There are far fewer buttons, because the trackball is used to move an

on-screen pointer through various menus. The following illustration shows the..Z-Trak and its controls.

In the following sections, you will be exploring the

wtrious screen menus available in StarSight. As you do so, keep in mind the following guidelines (quite literally, "rules of thumb") for Z-Trak operation:

• To display the pointer, press the trackball.

• To highlight an option or make a selection, point to the desired option and press the trackball.

• To close a StarSight screen, point to the QUIT icon and press the trackball.

To tune a channel, point to a channel icon and press the trackball. You can also simply highlight a program and press the ENTER button to tune that program.

screen full (one "page") ol!information. Yoga can point to the "PI"" or "P.l," icons and pre:ss the

trackball to flip through the pages. You can also

move more slowly by mo,:ing the pointer to the top, bottom, or side edges of the screen and continuing to roll the ball in that direction.

Be s_arethat the pointer is red, indicating that you are in StarSight mode. If the pointer is blue, move the', pointer to the left side of the TV screen, point to the "PC icon and press the trackball.
