followed.  
5. Water and Moisture - The appliance should not be used near water  
- for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub,

stand that is recommended by the manufacturer.  
6A.  
An appliance and cart combination should be moved  
with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven  
surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination  
to overturn.  
15. Non-use Periods - The power cord of the appliance should be  
unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of  
time.  
16. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects do  
not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through  
openings.  
6B. Tilt/Stability - All televisions must comply with recommended  
international global safety standards for tilt and stability properties  
of its cabinet design.  
Do not compromise these design standards by applying exces-  
sive pull force to the front, or top, of the cabinet which could  
ultimately overturn the product.  
Also, do not endanger yourself, or children, by placing elec-  
tronic equipment/toys on the top of the cabinet. Such items  
could unsuspectingly fall from the top of the set and cause  
product damage and/or personal injury.

wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.  
E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.  
8. Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or  
position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example,  
the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar  
surface that may block the ventilation openings; or, placed in a  
built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede  
the flow of air through the ventilation openings.  
18. Servicing - The user should not attempt to service the appliance  
beyond that described in the operating instructions. All other  
servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.  
9. Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources  
such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances  
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.  
10. Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to a power  
supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as  
marked on the appliance.  
Note to the CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the  
CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that  
provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that  
the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the

channel  
screen’s width to height, or aspect  
ratio, has historically been 33%  
wider than the picture screen  
height (or a 4:3 aspect ratio). The  
widescreen format of your TV  
screen is nearly 80% greater than  
its measure height (which  
accounts for a 16:9 aspect ratio).  
The reason for the 16:9 aspect  
ratio screen is that it allows for the  
dramatic and lifelike viewing of  
original version movies and  
cinemas (similar to the type found  
in your local theaters). And the  
16:9 aspect ratio widescreen is  
also a good visual match for how  
our eyes work in a horizontally  
oriented field of view and action  
plane.

NOTE: Not all TV programs and product commercials are made for broadcast  
with Closed Caption (CC) information included. Neither are all Closed Caption

Aparents for the censoring of  
program material is through the  
TV Guidelines and Movie Ratings  
system. Program Content Advisory  
data will soon be contained within  
the broadcast signals of received  
TV programs. When setup by the  
parent or viewer, the TV can  
respond to transmitted advisory  
data by blocking out or denying  
access to TV shows (based on  
whether the program meets or  
exceeds the limitations you select  
as viewable). The TV program can  
then only be viewed by entering the  
correct and current Parental Code  
Access number.  
Note: Please remember that a valid and current Access Code number will be  
required in the setup and use of the TV’s “Content Advisory” system. Review the  
previous SETUP CODE section on how to obtain a valid Parental Access Code  
number before attempting to make adjustments within the Movie Ratings and

The ANT A input is primarily for

The ANT B input is provided as a  
second, dedicated source option  
for the PTV’s PIP “window” and  
its feature operations. The signal  
connected to the ANT B input can  
be either a Split Signal Input (as  
described in the section on this  
page), or another type of external  
signal source (such as a satellite

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.

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 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- do not use household cleaners). Wipe the front screen with a clean cloth dampened with water. Use  
even, easy, vertical strokes when cleaning.  
• Specially designed screen cleaning kits are also available which contain anti-static cleaners and cloths designed to get  
into the ridges of the TV screen. If interested, ask your dealer about an optional Projection TV Screen Cleaning Kit or  
call our toll-free Accessory Parts ordering number 1-800-851-8885.  
• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or sponge dampened in a solution of cool clear water and a mild soap  
or detergent. 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.
