INTRODUCTION
WELCOME
Welcome into the fami]Lyof Zenith Color Television owners.
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 Zenith
TV for many years to come.
Your new Zenith TV has been designed and built to give
you the very best in quality, features and performance.
There are many regional Zenith distributors and thousands
of distributor-approved Zenith service centers throughout
the U.S. and Canada who can attend promptly and effective-
ly to ordinary service needs.
If you should have an tmnsual performance or service problem
that cannot be satisfactorily resolved by your distributor-
approved Zenith service center, contact the regional Zenith
distributor in your area, or write:
Zenith Electronics Corporation
Customer Service Department
1000 Milwaukee Avenue
Glenview, IL 60025-2493
Telephone: (847) 391-8752
Mon-Fri, 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Central Time
Send the model number, serial number, and[ date of pur-
chase or original installation, with a full explanation of the
problem and the service history. We will welcome the op-
portunity to look into your specific question or problem and
to be of assistance in resolving it promptly.
The model and serial numbers of your new TV are located on
the back of the TV cabinet. For your future o3nvenience and
protection, we suggest that you record these numbers here:
Model No.
Serial No.
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
Before you install your TV...
Ventilation - Proper ventilation keeps your TV
running cool. Air circulates through perfora-
tions in the 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. Do not attempt to operate it on DC current.
Power Cord - Your power cord has a
polarized plug as required by Underwriters'
Laboratories. It has one regular blade and one
wide blade and fits 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 Ope_xition - Your TV is manufactured
and tested with your safety in mind. However,
unusual slress caused by dropping or mishan-
dling, exposure to flood, fire, rain or moisture,
or accidental spilling of liquids into the TV, can
result in potential electrical shock or fire
hazards. If this happens, 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 installing and using your TV.
FIXED PATrERN DISPLAY CAUTION - If you use your
TV for video games, teletexl or other fLxeddisplays, avoid
setting the BRIGHTNESS conlxol for an excessively bright
picture. A bright, fLxedpattern, if used for long periods of
time, can result in a permanent imprint on the TV picture
tube. You can reduce this possibility by alternating the use
of the fLxedpattern display with normal TV picture viewing,
by turning down the CONTRAST control for sustained
fixed pattern use, and by turning off the fo:ed pattern dis-
play when not in use.
PLUGGING IN YOUR TV - I3esure to plug your TV into
an "unswitched" AC power source. The ":_witehed" AC out-
lets found on some video equipment will not continue sup-
plying power to the TV once tl'_eequipment 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.

CONNECTIONS FOR YOUR TV
CONNECTION CENTER ON BACK OF TV
The connection center on the rear of your TV will be
similar to the one shown below. Refer to the illustration
while reading the following description.
Tile connection center of your TV allows three basic
"ti_es" of video connections to provide for up to 5 different
viewing sources to your TV. Using these five connections,
you can choose from a variety of antenna sources and
attdio/video components for your viewing pleasure. Note
that the correct source must be selected from the SOURCE
M_ENU (as described later in this booklet) to watch TV.
1. ANT/CABLE 1 or ANT/CABLE 2
Use one of these jacks for 75-ohm, antenna-type
signal connections to your TV. Attach your anten-
na, cable-TV line, or other video component to
either of these jacks. The input may come from an
outdoor or master antenna, cable-TV decoder box,
or the 75-ohm TV ,output from a VCR.
2. VIDEO 1 IN or VIDEO 2 IN
Video (Base Band) input from VCR or other video
component (Disc Player). Gives improved picture
quality performance over that obtained through the
ANT/CABLE jacks.
3. S-VIDEO 1 IN
Input from a Super-VHS VCR. Both left and right
audio jacks are provided zls well as the S-Video
(Y-C) jack.
4. EXTERNAL SPEAKERS
Terminals for connecting external left and right
stereo speakers.
5. EXTERNAL AMP
Standard Phono Jack connectors for output to an
external amplifier.
.
SURROUND SPEAKER
Standard Phono Jack connector for output to op-
tional surround sound speakers.

INPUT SOURCES FOR YOUR "IV
Your TV has five input connection areas: ANT/CABLE 1,
ANT/CABLE 2, VIDEO 1 IN, VIDEO 2 IN, and S-
VIDEO 1 IN. (In addition, some models have a sixth input
area on the front of the TV.) These five inputs allow you to
connect five different "signal sources to your TV at the
same time. The "Signal Source" refers to the item supply-
ing the picture and sound to your TV.
The most common "sig_aal source" is your outdoor antenna
(or master antenna) or a cable-TV system. This type of sig-
nal is called a radio frequency (RF) source, and is con-
nected to the one of the ANT/CABLE jacks.

Another common "signal source' is the audio and video
(A/V) from a VCR or video disc player. Thi,; type of signal
is called base band (basic video and audio), and is con-
nected to one of the VIDE() IN connections.
A third "signal source" is the inpat from a Super-VHS
VCR. If you have a S-VHS VCR, use the S-VIDEO 1 IN
video and audio jacks to connect it to the TV.
To use any of these video/audio input sources, you must ac-
cess the SOURCE Menu and select the "source" which cor-
responds to the input jacks being used. Refer to the
"SOURCE MENU" in this operating guide

CONNECTIONS FOR YOUR TV
STEP 1. MAKE BASIC CONNECTION TO TV
There are four basic hook ups to your TV; outdoor antenna
(or master antenna) with or without VCR, and cable-TV
system with or without VCR. Select the hook up that best
fits your needs. See the. following diagrams.
A. Antenna Connection to TV
If You Have a Round Antenna Wire:
Connect the 75-ohm round antenna wire to either
the ANT/CABLE 1 or ANT/CABLE 2 jack on the
TV.
If You Have a Fiat, Twin-Lead Antenna Wire:
Use the 300/75 ohm adapter included with the TV.
Attach the ends of the wire to the adapter and plug
it into either the ANT/CABLE 1 or the
ANT/CABLE 2 jack.
NOTE: The antenna may be connected into the ANT/
CABLE 2jack, however, connecting to the ANT/CABLE 1
jack may produce a better picture in weak signal areas.
Your connection is made to one of the ANT/CABLE jacks
on the back of the TV. These. jacks accept 75-ohm cable ter-
minated in an F-type male connector. You may want to do
the hook-up yourself, or call a TV service technician, or a
cable company.

4. Use the VOLUME control to adjust the volume of
the TV.
5. The level of the Surround sound varies relative to
the difference between the left- and right-channel
stereo signals. The degre¢_ of the Surround sound
effect depends on the. program source you are
using. Some sources, especially video tape, provide
greater sensation of Surround sound than may be
obtained from a standard TV broadcast.
NOTE: The surround jack is always active. Therefore, the
position of the speaker switch does not affect the operation
of surround speakers.
CAUTION: The Surround Sound output has an 8-ohm sys-
tem impedance. It is for use with two 16-ohm speakers con-
nected in parallel. Use of non-su:rround speakers may
damage your TV.

that whatever is currently being viewed on your TV, regard-
less of the source, is alsa provided as baseband video and
audio to these jacks.
1Usethese standard phono jacks to send fixed-level audio
;and video signals to another component for recording or
viewing purposes. These signals are ideal for use with equip-
ment that does not have its own video tuning capability,
such as a Camcorder. You can also use these signals as
input to a second VCR !ifdesired.
To Use the Fixed AN Jacks:
1. Connect the VIDEO Output jack to the VIDEO
Input of the camc.order (Or VCR).
2. Connect the RIGHT and LEFT AUDIO Output
jacks to the corresponding INPUT jacks of the cam-
corder (or VCR).
Operation: To use these connections, simply turn on your TV
and operate the connecled camcorder (or VCR) according to
its instructions.
