IMPROPER USE CAN RESULT IN POTENTIAL ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR FIRE HAZARDS. In order not to defeat the safeguards incorporated  
in this equipment, observe the following basic rules for its installation, use and servicing.  
1. Unplug this television equipment from the wall outlet before cleaning.  
2. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.  
3. Do not use attachments not recommended by the television equipment manufacturer as they may cause hazards.  
4. Do not use this television equipment near water for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement,  
or near a swimming pool, etc.  
5. Do not place this equipment on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The television equipment may fall, causing serious injury to a child or an  
adult, and serious damage to the equipment. Use only with a cart or stand recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the television  
equipment.  
6. Television equipment and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may  
cause the equipment and cart combination to overturn.  
7. Wall or shelf mounting should follow the manufacturers instructions, and should use a mounting kit approved by the manufacturer.  
8. Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided for ventilation. To insure reliable operation of the television equipment  
and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. This television equipment should not be placed in a built-  
in insulation such as a bookcase unless proper ventilation is provided.  
9. The openings should never be covered with a cloth or other material, and the bottom openings should not be blocked by placing the television  
equipment on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This television equipment should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat  
register.  
10. This television equipment should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the  
type of power supplied to your home, consult your television dealer or local power company.  
For television equipment designed to operate from battery power, refer to the operating instructions.  
11. As a safety feature, television equipment is equipped with a 2-wire polarized plug (one plug blade bigger than the other). The 2-wire polarized  
plug will fit only one way into the power outlet.  
If the plug does not fit, ask your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not modify the plug and defeat this safety feature.  
12. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this television equipment where the cord will be abused by persons walking  
on it.  
13. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the television equipment.  
14. If an outside antenna is connected to the television equipment, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection  
against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code provides information with respect to proper  
grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,  
location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

Before Operating Your Television  
Location  
For normal operation, your TV should be located in an area of the room where cool, adequate ventilation is provided. Do not place the back  
of the television set in a place where free airflow will be restricted.  
Any magnetic force may disturb the color picture. Make sure that magnets, electric clocks, toys using magnets or any other magnetic  
substance, such as iron are kept well away from this TV set.  
Power  
Your TV operates on 120 Volts, 60 Hertz (normal household current) and has a polarized plug. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the  
outlet, try reversing the plug. Should it fail to fit, contact an electrician. Do not defeat the safety feature of the polarized plug.  
NOTE:  
If the set will not be used for a long period, such as during a vacation, unplug the set from the wall outlet to economize power. (If the TV set  
is plugged in, slight current still flows, even with the POWER BUTTON in the OFF position.  
Lines and other noise may appear in TV broadcast images when an FM tuner or radio is located near the TV and both radio and TV  
broadcasts are being received. Should such noise appear, turn off either the TV or the radio.  
If you are listening to the AM broadcasts, turn the TV off. AM broadcast signals may not be received due to the interference of the TV.  
Before using the television, prepare the Remote Control.  
To use the remote control, insert batteries first.  
Insert the batteries  
With your thumbnail, pull up the slit as indicated by the arrow to  
remove the back cover. Insert two batteries (size AA). Be sure

Antenna Connections  
Antennas  
• The antenna requirements for good color television reception are more important than those for black & white television reception. For this  
reason, a good quality outdoor antenna is strongly recommended.  
The following is a brief explanation of the type of connections that are provided with the various antenna systems:  
F-type connector  
1. A 75 ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type connector that can easily be  
attached to a terminal without tools. The F-type connector should be finger tightened  
only.  
75-ohm coaxial cable (round)  
2. A 300 ohm system is a flat “twin-lead” cable that can be attached to a 75 ohm terminal  
through a 300-75 ohm ADAPTOR (not supplied).  
300-ohm twin-lead cable (flat)  
OUTDOOR ANTENNA CONNECTION  
• Use one of the following two diagrams if you connect an outdoor antenna.  
A: Using a VHF/UHF combination outdoor antenna.  
B: Using separate VHF and/or UHF outdoor antenna.  
• Connect an outdoor antenna cable lead-in to the COAXIAL CABLE CONNECTOR on the rear of the TV set.  
A. Combination VHF/UHF Antennas  
B. Separate VHF/UHF Antenna

CABLE TV (CATV) CONNECTION  
• A 75 ohm coaxial cable connector is built into the set for easy hookup. When connecting the 75 ohm coaxial cable to the set, screw the 75  
ohm cable to the COAXIAL CABLE CONNECTOR.  
• Some cable TV companies offer “premium pay channels”. Since the signals of these premium pay channels are scrambled, a cable TV  
converter/descrambler is generally provided to the subscriber by the cable TV company. This converter/descrambler is necessary for  
normal viewing of the scrambled channels. (Set your TV on channel 3 or 4. Typically one of these channels is used. If this is unknown,  
consult your cable TV company.) For more specific instructions on installing cable TV, consult your cable TV company. One possible  
method of utilizing the converter/descrambler provided by your cable TV company is explained below.  
Please note: RF switch equipped with position A/B (not provided) is required.  
“A” position on the RF switch (not supplied) : You can view all unscrambled channels using the TV’s channel keys.  
“B” position on the RF switch (not supplied) : You can view the scrambled channels via the converter/descrambler using the converter’s  
channel keys.

Parent Control (V-CHIP operation)  
L V-CHIP  
• This function allows you to restrict TV programs and also allows you to control TV usage based on FCC data. This function is to prevent your  
children from watching violence or sexual scenes that may be harmful.  
• Restriction of TV programs includes two characters that contain information about the program’s MPAArating and the TV Parental Guidelines.  
MPAA is restricted by age. TV Parental Guidelines are restricted by age and contents.  
• Since a TV program may use either the MPAA rating or the TV Guidelines you should adjust both for complete control.

Operation of Remote Control  
L Universal Remote Control  
L “Identifying” Remote VCR and Cable TV Converters  
With the purchase of your television set you also have received  
the latest innovation in remote control technology. With its easy-  
to-use push button keyboard, your Remote can control your  
television set and most infrared remote controlled VCRs and  
cable TV converters as well.  
Your Remote Control has been set at the factory to operate your  
TV and many remote control VCRs and Cable Converters.  
However, in some cases an easy one-time set-up step may be  
necessary before the Remote will operate accessory VCRs and  
Cable Converters.  
• In this set-up step, the Remote locates and memorizes the remote  
control transmitter code for the VCR or Cable Converter.  
• Once “identified”, the Remote sends the proper remote signals  
to operate your accessory.  
• This identify step will not have to be repeated until power to the  
Remote is interrupted due to a battery failure.  
NOTE:  
• Depending on the model, year produced, brand and type of VCR,  
some models may not be compatible with the remote control.  
• Some brands of Cable TV converter Box may not enable channel  
selection until the ENTER is pressed.  
Example:  
L USING YOUR REMOTE CONTROL WITH A VCR  
When you select channel 24,  
Once you make certain the Remote Control has “identified” your  
remote controlled VCR, the Remote Control is ready to operate  
your unit. The various VCR function buttons on the Remote  
Control will not operate your VCR if those features are not already  
found on your unit.  
(1) Press REMOTE KEYPAD “2”.  
(2) Press REMOTE KEYPAD “4”.  
(3) Press ENTER.  
For detailed information on the use of the VCR or Cable TV  
converter Box refer to their operating manuals.  
• All VCR buttons will operate whether the Remote Control is in  
TV or CATV modes.  
L Using Your Remote With Your TV  
• For detailed information on the use of the VCR, refer to the  
operation manual of the VCR.  
After installing the batteries, set the TV-CATV on the remote to  
the TV position. (If you can change the channel of the TV by  
pressing CH UP (8) or DOWN (9) on the Remote Control, it is  
the TV position.)

If your VCR model does not have the CHANNEL UP function on its  
remote control, it cannot be identified using the SEARCH method of  
identifying. For such models, please try the DIRECT ENTRY method  
of identifying.  
Be Patient: a minute or two can seem a lot longer when youre waiting  
for something to happen, but the code should be identified within  
two minutes. Remember, it is only a one-time set-up.  
Be careful not to let the VCR scan more than five channels when  
the indicator starts to move up. If you continue holding down the  
DISPLAY and CH UP (8) after five channel scans, the proper remote  
code can be passed up, and the two minute identify cycle will have  
to be repeated.  
If a channel change does not occur on the VCR within two minutes,  
read the identifying instructions again and repeat the steps. Should  
a channel change still not occur, the remote will not operate with the  
desired VCR.
