ANT / Cable Service Hookup

Connect an antenna and/or cable service to your TV as shown.

Turn to page 18 to do a channel search with EZ Scan for ANT / CABLE connection(s).

For best signal reception, it is recommended to have your Antenna professionally adjusted.

If you receive your RF signal through an antenna that is several years old and connects with two small prongs, you will need to purchase a 300 to 75 ohm adapter. It should be available from your local electronics dealer.

Zenith recommends using a 75 ohm cable for your antenna connections in order to prevent interference.

Cable Box Connections

Locate the Antenna/Cable 2 jack on the back of your TV. Connect the cable that runs from the wall directly or antenna to the jack. Now find the Loop Out jack.

Connect the cable from this jack to the Input jack on the back of your cable box.

Locate the Output jack on the back of your cable box. Connect this to the Antenna/Cable 1 jack on the back of your TV.

To view the premium stations, press the TV/VIDEO button on your remote and select the other Cable source (Ant/Cable

1). Then tune the channel number on your cable box for HBO, CINEMAX, SHOWTIME, etc.

To view non-premium channels press the TV/VIDEO button and select Ant/Cable 2. Then run EZ Scan to find all available channels and store them in memory.

This can be combined with any other equipment you may want to hook up, see following pages. Connect cable service wire directly to the TV, loop out from the TV, then to the cable box. From there, the cable box output connects to the next device in the connection series, until the last device, which connects back to the Antenna/Cable 1 jack on the TV.

Some cable services require the use of a cable box to decode premium channels and pay-per-view. Using the Loop Out to Decoder connection option, and programming your remote, you can connect your cable box so that you only need your MBR remote to tune to premium and non-premium channels. By connecting a cable box directly to your TV, as shown to the LOOP OUT, you make the cable box another available channel tuning source using your remote.

Programming the Remote

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

Turn on the component to be programmed. Then press the corresponding mode button on the remote control.

Press the POWER button and the MUTE button simultaneously. Then the remote control is ready to program the code for the corresponding component.

There are two ways to find the right code for the component.

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

Press the EXIT button to store the code.

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

Maintenance

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.

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.

Use a quality wood cleaner and polish. This will protect the TV from dirt and dust, as well as keep the cabinet looking new.

If you leave your TV dormant for a long time (such as a vacation), it’s a good idea to 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.

SCREEN CLEANING

EXTENDED ABSENCE

CABINET CLEANING

WOOD CABINETS

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

Maintenance continued

Even though you may be getting cable, the signal may be weak, which means the quality of your picture may suffer due to other factors. If there are problems with the image on your TV, consult the Troubleshooting guide on the following pages. You may also want to contact your cable service provider to determine if the problem is from the cable service.

If you use your TV to play video games or for other uses that have single, fixed images, such as a photo-CD player, you should avoid setting the Brightness level too high. If static images, like network identification patterns, are left on the screen for too long, they can leave a permanent impression on the TV screen. You can reduce the chance of this happening by limiting the amount of time you use the fixed-image display, and by reducing the contrast and brightness levels.

VIDEO GAMES AND OTHER FIXED-PATTERN DISPLAYS

PICTURE INTERFERENCE

If you unplug your TV, you may have to reset the clock using the Time menu described earlier.

• If possible increase the distance between your TV and the offending appliance, or shut one of them off.

• Check volume levels.

• Make sure the TV is not Muted.

• Try another channel. The problem may be with the broadcast, not your TV.

• Are the Audio cables installed properly?

• Are the wires for external speakers (if you have external speakers)

installed properly?

• Make sure your speakers are turned on in the Audio menu.

• If your audio mode is set to SAP, the program may not have SAP.

• Are you in TV or cable tuning mode, and should be in the other?

• Make sure output channels on all A/V equipment are on the same channel (3 or 4).

• Check that all connections are tight.

• Is the AC power plugged in?

• Check that your AC power outlet works. (Test it by plugging in something

else or try another power outlet.))

• Make sure your brightness and audio controls are set properly.

• Try another channel. The problem may be with the broadcast.

• Check the color control in the Video menu.

• Try another channel. The problem may be with the broadcast.

• The CC (closed caption) option may be in Text mode. Select Caption 1, in the

Captions/Text menu., or OFF in the Captions menu.

• Select correct Aspect Ratio in Special menu or with ARC button.

• If you forgot your password, when the display asks you to enter the secret code,

press ‘7’, ‘7’, '7’, ‘7’ on the remote control.

Glossary

A list of definitions for some of the words found in this guide.

75 OHM RF CABLE The round cable that comes from an off-air antenna or cable service

provider. Each end looks like a hex shaped nut with a wire sticking through the middle, and it screws onto the threaded jack on the back of your TV.

A/V CABLES Audio/Video cables. Three cables - Right audio (red), Left audio (white),

and Video (yellow). A/V cables are used for stereo playback of videocassettes and for higher quality picture and sound from other A/V devices.

A/V DEVICE Any device that produces video or sound (VCR, DVD, cable box,

or television).

ADD This function lets you add new channels to the channel list in memory

that you’ll scroll through when using your remote.

AMPLIFIER An external device that amplifies sound from a television, CD player, VCR,

DVD or other A/V device.

ANALOG TV Traditional method of representing a television signal as a replica (analog)

of the original picture and sound.

ANTENNA The physical receiver of television signals sent over the air. A large metal

piece of equipment does not always have to be visible for your home to be using an antenna.

ARC The ratio of the horizontal dimension to the vertical dimension of a pic-

ture. Standard television in the U.S. today is generally transmitted and displayed in a 4:3 aspect ratio. High-Definition television will normally be formatted in a wider aspect ratio, assumed to be 16:9.

CAPTIONS A form of subtitling that writes out the dialog for your program on the

screen.

CONVERGENCE This option lets you correct for color separation in your picture.

DELETE This function lets you remove channels that you don’t watch from the

channel list in memory.

DIGITAL TV A new method of representing a television signal as a series of binary

numbers (1s and 0s). This method allows the signal to be manipulated to eliminate redundancy and dramatically increase picture and sound quality.

DOLBY DIGITAL Dolby Digital Cinema Sound is made possible by a new digital coding tech-

nique called Dolby AC-3. Dolby AC-3 produces high-quality, 5.1 channel surround sound which is six discrete separate channels for a full range of sound. Each channel can carry a different signal simultaneously (front center, front left, front right, surround left, surround right and subwoofer).

nels. You can access this group of channels with the FCR button on the remote by pressing FCR repeatedly.

INPUT Refers to the jack that receives a signal into the TV, VCR or

other A/V device.

JACK A connection on the back of a TV, VCR, or any other A/V

device. This includes the RF jacks and the Audio/Video jacks that are color-coded.

MODE The mode determines the type of device (TV, VCR, Cable, Aux)

that the remote is controlling; remote operating mode.

MONO SOUND Mono (monaural) sound is one channel of sound. On more

than one speaker, all the speakers play the same audio.

OUTPUT Refers to the jack that sends a signal out of a VCR, DVD, or

other A/V device.

PIP This is the most common way to refer to the Picture-In-Picture

(PIP) option.

SECOND AUDIO Second Audio Programming (SAP) is another, separate, audio

channel available with some programming. Choosing SAP often refers to listening to audio in another language, such as Spanish or French.

SIGNAL Picture and sound traveling through cable, or on the air, to

your television screen.

SOURCE The term for the equipment that provides audio and video

information to your TV. Antenna, VCR, DVD players, and Cable Boxes are examples of sources.

STEREO SOUND Stereo (stereophonic) sound refers to audio that’s divided into

right and left sides.
