TV Installation - Choose a Location for the TV  
Choose a location for the TV  
Important: The TV must be installed at least 5  
feet from pool, spa, or other body of water.  
The TV should be installed so the screen is not facing  
direct sunlight, or can be easily turned away from  
direct sunlight.  
Ideal placement is in an area where the TV is shaded  
by trees, landscape and/or structures, or under a patio  
cover or gazebo.  
If the sun shines directly on the screen for long periods  
of time, dark areas may develop on the screen. This is  
a normal reaction for the LED panel, and will not cause  
damage to the screen. Either turn the screen away from  
the sun, or apply shade to the TV, and the dark areas  
will quickly disappear.

Tips for high-  
definition users  
The TV is an ideal platform for viewing High-definition content. The best image  
quality can be achieved by HDMI, YPbPr (component), then VGA. However, due  
to variances in broadcast practices, it is possible that some image distortion  
may occur.  
The TV’s remote sensor is housed in the same place as the power indicator light.  
Make sure there is line of sight from the remote control’s first sensor to the remote  
sensor of the TV.  
Tips for letterbox  
content users  
Letterbox (widescreen) versions of DVD movies are most commonly formatted  
for standard 4:3 TVs. The TV has the capability of expanding this content so  
the entire screen is filled, at the expense of the image proportion. To use this  
function, press the aspect button on the remote control and cycle among the  
available options.

Care of SunBriteTV  
Important Information About the Anti-Reflective Window on your SunBriteTV Outdoor Television  
The anti-reflective window on your all-weather TV is designed to dramatically reduce reflection and improve the contrast of  
the image on your TV. In order to preserve the anti-reflective properties of the window, it is imperative that you follow the  
maintenance guidelines below:  
ClEANINg THE ANTI-REFlECTIVE WINDOW  
Do not use any abrasive cleaners or acrylic cleaning products to clean the windows as they damage the anti-reflective  
surface. For best results, we recommend the use of 91% isopropyl alcohol applied with a damp lint-free cloth. Windex (or  
other common household cleaners) can also be used. Also available is SunBriteTV’s special outdoor formula Cleaning Kit.  
OUTDOOR DUST COVER  
When the TV is not in use, we recommend that you keep it covered with a SunBriteTV fitted Outdoor Dust Cover. This will  
keep the TV clean, protect the finish and ensure years of maximum enjoyment.  
To Order the Dust Cover or Cleaning Kit, contact your Authorized SunBriteTV Dealer, SunBriteTV’s Customer Care Center at  
General Cleaning  
Remove any dirt and salt deposits from the unit, being careful to rinse the cloth frequently to avoid scratching the TV or screen  
surface. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasives, or solvents when cleaning any surface on the unit.  
Snow and Ice  
Use a soft brush and towel to remove snow and ice from the unit.  
Fiber Filter  
Over time, the fiber filter collects dirt and must be cleaned or replaced.  
The Fiber Filter is located on the back of the unit, inside the Intake Vent at the top of the TV (Figure 1).  
1. Release the Fiber Filter by pulling it out from the corner of the Intake Vent (Figure 2). Notice how the Fiber Filter fits in the upper  
and lower channels, and tightly against the side.  
2. Pull the Fiber filter out of the TV, and wash it with mild detergent and warm water. After rinsing, let the Fiber Filter dry completely.  
3. Put the Fiber Filter back up into the Intake Vent pushing the filter first into the upper channel, then fit it into the lower channel.  
Make sure filter fits tightly against the side. (Figure 3).  
CAUTION! NEVER SPRAY OR DIRECT A HOSE INTO THE VENT AREA OF THE TV.  
To Order Replacement Filters, contact SunBriteTV’s Customer Care Center at 800.331.4626.

Features Information and Instructions  
Extreme Climate Warning  
The Internal Thermostatically-Controlled Heater keeps the unit warm in freezing temperatures and activates automatically when the  
SunBriteTV internal temperature sensor reads a temperature inside the unit of 32O F. or lower. The heater remains on until the internal  
temperature rises to at least 42O F. The heater provides a 20O F. temperature rise, allowing the TV to safely remain in temperatures as low  
as -24O F. The ventilation fans are not activated when the heater is running and will automatically activate when required.  
If temperatures below -24O F. are expected, we recommend that you bring your SunBriteTV inside to prevent damage to the LED screen.  
Note: In order for the automatic heater to work properly, your SunBriteTV must have power applied at all times.  
Programming Other Manufacturers’ Universal Remote Control Devices  
When programming a DirectTV, local cable universal remote control or Control system, you may find that SunBriteTV is not on the list of  
TV manufacturers. If that is the case, this model supports SONY’s universal remote code.  
SunBriteTV Pixel Quality Policy  
SunBriteTV’s Pixel Quality Policy  
(Applicable to LED TVs sold within USA and Canada only.)  
SunBriteTV LED screens are manufactured with rigorous standards to maintain optimal viewing. However, the LED screen may  
have minor defects that appear as a small bright or dark pixel. This is common to all LED screens used in display and television  
products, and is not specific to SunBriteTV.  
Bright dots are dots that appear bright and unchanged in size when a LED TV screen displays a black pattern.  
Dark dots are dots that appear dark and unchanged in size when a LED TV screen displays a pure red, green, or blue pattern.  
Adjacent dots are pixels located directly next to each other.  
Your SunBriteTV will be replaced under warranty if it meets one of the following criteria:  
—A total of 7 defective pixels, including both bright dots and dark dots are present. (The LED TV screen on this TV has over a million  
pixels.)  
—2 or more pairs of adjacent bright dots are present.  
—3 adjacent bright dots are present.  
—3 adjacent dark dots are present.  
To locate defective pixels, the LED panel should be examined under normal operating conditions, in its native display resolution,  
with a 90 degree viewing angle, from a distance of a approximately 20 inches.  
To qualify for replacement, a defective LED screen must be reported to SunBriteTV within 60 days from the day the customer  
receives the TV.  
For questions, please call our toll-free service number at 800.331.4626.
