CAUTION: A video source (such as a video game, Compact Disc Interactive - CDI, or
lease make these simple
TV information channel) which shows a constant non-moving pattern on the TV screen,
can cause picture tube damage. When your TV is continuously used with such a source

permanently on the picture tube. When not in use, turn the video source OFF.
Regularly alternate the use of such video sources with normal TV viewing.
Pchecks before calling for ser-
vice. These tips can save you
time and money since charges for
TV installation and adjustment of
customer controls are not cov-
ered under your warranty.

outlet and push POWER button again.
• Check to be sure outlet is not on a wall switch.

• Check the TUNING ANTENNA/CABLE control for correct position.
• Check INPUT control for correct position. The EXT 1 position with out a signal
source will result in a blank screen.
• Check the VOLUME buttons.
• Check VOLUME LIMIT control.
• Check the MUTE button on the remote control.
• If attempting auxiliary equipment hook-ups, check audio jack connections.

This TV is equipped with protective circuitry that shuts the TV off in case of moderate
power surges. Should this occur turn the TV back on by pressing the POWER button
once or twice, or unplug (wait 10 seconds) and then replug the power cord at the AC
outlet. This feature is NOT designed to prevent damage due to high power surges such
as those caused by lightning, which is not covered by your warranty.
Cleaning and Care
• To avoid possible shock hazard be sure the TV is unplugged from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
• When cleaning the TV screen take care not to scratch or damage the screen surface (avoid wearing jewelry or using
anything abrasive). Wipe the front screen with a clean cloth dampened with water. Use even, easy, vertical strokes when
cleaning.
• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or sponge dampened in a solution of cool clear water. Use a clean
dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.
• Occasionally vacuum the ventilation holes or slots in the cabinet back.
• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring
of the cabinet finish.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS
Round Cable 75Ω * A single solid antenna wire normally
Programming * The procedure of adding or deleting channel
numbers into the Television’s memory circuits. In this way the
Television “remembers’’ only the locally available or desired
channel numbers and skips over any unwanted channel numbers.
matched with a metal plug (F-type) end connector that screws (or
pushes) directly onto a 75 Ohm input found on the Television or
VCR. (Also known as Coaxial Cable.)
Closed Caption * Broadcast standard which allows you to read
the voice content of television programs on the TV screen.
Designed to help the hearing impaired this feature uses on-screen
"text boxes" to show dialogue and conversations while the TV pro-
gram is in progress.
Remote Sensor Window * A window or opening found on the
Television control panel through which infrared remote control
command signals are received.
Setup Mode * Automatic feature control settings made by the TV.
Designed for first time set-up and use. Settings for signal connec-
tions (antenna or cable TV), plus channel program memory are
held in the TV's memory (even if the set is unplugged and moved
to a new location.)
Audio/Video Inputs * Located on the rear of the TV these con-
nectors (RCA phono type plug) are used for the input of audio
and video signals. Designed for use with VCRs (or other acces-
sories) in order to receive higher picture resolution and offer sound
connection options.
Status/Exit * Allows the user to quickly confirm what channel
number is currently being viewed. Status can also be used to clear
the Television of on screen displays or information (rather than
waiting for the displays to “time out” or automatically disappear
from the screen).
On Screen Displays (OSD) * Refers to the wording or messages
generated by the television (or VCR) to help the user with specific
feature controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).
Menu * An on-screen listing of feature controls shown on the
Television screen that are made available for user adjustments.
Twin Lead Wire * The more commonly used name for the two
strand 300 Ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and outdoor
antenna systems. In many cases this type of antenna wire requires
an additional adapter (or balun) in order to connect to the 75 Ohm
Input terminals designed into the more recent Televisions and
VCRs.
Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) * The broadcast standard
that allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV picture.
