ing should be referred to qualified service personnel.  
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.  
11. Power-Cord Protection - Power supply cords should be routed so  
that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed  
upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords and  
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from  
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 pro-  
vides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the  
cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building,  
as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

NOTE: Not all TV programs and product commercials are made for broadcast  
with Closed Caption (CC) information included. Neither are all Closed Caption  
modes (CAPTION 1-4; or TEXT 1-4) necessarily being used by a broadcast station  
during the transmission of a closed caption program. Usually "CAPTION 1" is the  
most used mode to view captioned material. Refer to your area's TV program list-  
ings for the stations and times of Closed Caption shows.  
losed Captioning (CC) allows  
Cyou to read the voice content of  
television programs on the TV

TIPS IF SOMETHING ISN'T WORKING  
CAUTION: A video source (such as a video game, Compact Disc Interactive - CDI, or  
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  
the pattern of the non-moving portion of the game (CDI, etc.) could leave an image per-  
manently 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.  
lease make these simple  
Pchecks before calling for ser-  
vice. These tips can save you  
time and money since charges for

ered under your warranty.

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

antenna plug on the TV?  
• Check the CABLE TUNING control for correct position.  
• Check PICTURE SOURCE control for correct position "VCR/AUX" position without a  
signal source will result in a blank screen.

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 the MAG4600 Projection TV Screen Cleaning Kit or  
call our toll-free Accessory Parts ordering number 1-800-292-6066.  
• 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.

GLOSSARY TO TELEVISION TERMS  
Coaxial Cable * A single solid antenna wire normally 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.  
Picture -In-Picture (PIP) * Term used when two pictures are  
shown on the TV screen at the same time. The smaller PIP  
picture is supplied by a VCR (or other tuner/video playback  
source). The PIP picture can also be moved and swapped with  
the TV's main screen picture.  
Display * An on screen message or graphics that help the user  
operate and adjust his Television feature controls. See On  
Screen Displays (OSD).  
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 chan-  
nel numbers.  
Direct Audio/Video Inputs * Located on the rear of the TV  
these connectors (RCA phono type plug) are used for the input  
of audio and video signals. Designed for use with VCRs (or  
other accessories) in order to receive higher picture resolution  
and offer sound connection options.  
Remote Sensor Window * A window or opening found on  
the Television control panel through which infrared remote  
control command signals are received.  
Identify* Method by which a remote control searches and finds  
an operating code for another product (such as a VCR or Cable  
Converter). Once the code has been "identified" then the TV  
remote can operate and send commands to the other product.  
Second Audio Program (SAP) * Another or additional audio  
channel provided for in the Multichannel Television Sound  
(MTS) broadcast standard. The most frequently proposed use  
for SAP is the simultaneous bilingual broadcast of TV pro-  
gram material.  
Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) * The broadcast stan-  
dard that allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV  
picture.  
Status * 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 automati-  
cally disappear from the screen).  
Menu * An on-screen listing of feature controls shown on the  
Television screen that are made available for user adjustments.  
On Screen Displays (OSD) * Refers to the wording or mes-  
sages generated by the television (or VCR) to help the user with  
specific feature controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).  
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 con-  
nect to the 75 Ohm Input terminals designed into the more  
recent Televisions and VCRs.
