The openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product 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.

5. Cleaning Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning.

Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

6. Water and Moisture Do not use this product near water for example, near a

Closed Captions

Closed captioning is a process which converts the audio portion of a television program into written words, which then appear on the television screen in a form similar to subtitles. Closed captions allow viewers to read the dialogue and narration of television programs.

Using Closed Captions

Captions are the subtitles for the dialogue and narration of television programs. For prerecorded programs, program dialogue can be arranged into captions in advance. It is possible to caption a live program by using a process called “real-time captioning”, which creates captions instantly. Real-time captioning is normally done by professional reporters using a machine shorthand system with

FOLLOW ME

Caption Tips

• Not all TV broadcasts include closed caption signals.

• Sometimes TV stations broadcast two different caption signals on the same channel. By selecting CC

1 or CC2, you can choose which signal you view. CC 1 is usually the signal with the captions, while CC 2 might show demonstration or programming information.

• Your TV might not display caption signals correctly under the following circumstances.

computer for translation into English. Captioning is an effective system for the hearing-impaired, and it can also used as an aid in teaching language skills.

• The picture at left shows a typical caption.

1. Poor reception conditions are encountered:

IGNITION: Picture may flutter, drift, display black spots or horizontal streaking, which are usuallycaused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electrical drills or other electrical appliances.

GHOSTS: Ghosts are caused when the TV signal splits and follows two paths. One is the direct path and the other is reflected off tall buildings, hills or other objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve reception.

SNOW: If your TV is located at the weak, fringe area of a TV signal, your picture may be marred by small dots. It may be necessary to install a special antenna to improve the picture.

2. An old, bad or illegally recorded being played.

3. Strong, random signals from a car or airplane interfere with the TV signal.

4. The signal from the antenna is weak.

5. The program wasn't captioned when it was produced, transmitted or taped.

Displaying Text

Text services offer a wide variety of information on all kinds of subjects (ex. captioned program lists, weather forecasts, stock exchange topics, news for hearing-impaired---) filling the TV screen. However, even though the program does offer captioning, text services may not be available.

Note

• In the event you are receiving a poor signal, an empty black box may

appear and disappear, when text mode is turned on. This commonly happens under poor signal conditions.

The remote control for your projection TV is a multi-brand or universal remote control. It can be programmed to operate most remote-controllable devices of other manufacturers.

Note that the remote control may not control all models of other brands.

1. Test your remote control. To find out whether your remote control can operate the IR device without programming, turn on the IR device such as a VCR and press the corresponding mode button (VCR) on the remote control, while pointing at the IR device. Test the POWER and CH +/- buttons to see if IR device responds properly. If not, the remote requires programming to operate the device.

2. Turn on the IR device to be programmed, then press the corresponding mode button on the remote control.

3. Press the POWER and MUTE buttons simultaneously, the remote control is ready to be programmed for the code.

4. There are two ways to find the right code for the IR device. A. If you press the CH +/- buttons repeatedly, the codes will

change one at-a-time. Press the POWER button after each code change. If the right code is found, the device will turn off.

B. Enter a code number using the number buttons on the remote.

Programming code numbers for the corresponding component can be found on the following pages. Again, if the code is correct, the device will turn off.

5. Press the EXIT button to store the code.

6. Test the remote control functions to see if the IR device responds properly. If not, repeat from step 2.

Maintenance

Early malfunctions can be prevented. Careful and regular cleaning can help extend the amount of time you will have your new projection TV. Be sure to turn the power off and pull out the power plug from the wall power outlet before you begin any cleaning.

Screen Cleaning

1. Here’s a great way to keep the dust off your screen for a while. Wet a soft cloth in a mixture of lukewarm water and a little fabric softener or dish washing detergent. Wring the cloth until it’s almost dry, and then use it to wipe the screen.

2. Make sure the excess water is off the screen, and then let it air-dry before you turn on your TV.

Cabinet Cleaning

1. Use a soft cloth with a mild soap solution to wipe the cabinet.

2. Rinse the cloth and wipe the cabinet again.

3. Let the cabinet air-dry before turning the TV on.

Extended Absence

If you expect to leave your TV dormant for a long time (such as a vacation), unplug the power cord to protect against possible damage from lightning or power surges. If you use an off-air antenna, you may also want to disconnect it from the back of your TV before leaving.
