Important Safeguards  
CAUTION:  
Please read and retain for your safety.  
Electrical energy can perform many useful functions. This TV set has been engineered and  
manufactured to assure your personal safety. But improper use can result in potential  
electrical shock or fire hazards. In order not to defeat the safeguards incorporated in this  
TV set, observe the following basic rules for its installation, use and servicing. Also follow all  
warnings and instructions marked on your TV set.  
INSTALLATION  
(POLARIZED-TYPE)  
1 Your TV set is equipped with a polarized AC line plug (one  
blade of the plug is wider than the other). This safety feature  
allows the plug to fit into the power outlet only one way.  
Should you be unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet,  
try reversing the plug. Should it still fail to fit, contact your  
electrician.  
2 Operate the TV set only from a power source as indicated on the TV set or refer to the  
operating instructions for this information. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to  
your home, consult your TV set dealer or local power company. For battery operation, refer  
to the operating instructions.  
3 Overloaded AC outlets and extension cords are dangerous, and so are frayed power cords  
and broken plugs. They may result in a shock or fire hazard. Call your service technician for  
replacement.  
4 Do not allow anything to rest on or roll over the power cord, and do not place the TV set  
where power cord is subject to traffic or abuse. This may result in a shock or fire hazard.  
5 Do not use this TV set near water — for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or  
laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near swimming pool, etc.  
6 If an outside antenna is connected to the TV set, 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  
requirements for the grounding electrode.  
7 An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines  
or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits.  
When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from  
touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

NEC - NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE  
8 TV sets are provided with ventilation openings in the cabinet to allow heat generated during  
operation to be released.  
Therefore:  
— Never block the bottom ventilation slots of a portable TV set by placing it on a bed, sofa,  
rug, etc.  
— Never place a TV set in a “built-in” enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.  
— Never cover the openings with a cloth or other material.  
— Never place the TV set near or over a radiator or heat register.  
9 To avoid personal injury:  
— Do not place a TV set on a sloping shelf unless properly secured.  
— Use only a cart or stand recommended by the TV set manufacturer.  
— Do not try to roll a cart with small casters across thresholds or deep pile carpets.  
— Wall or shelf mounting should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a  
mounting kit approved by the manufacturer.  
Use  
10 Caution children about dropping or pushing objects into the TV set through cabinet  
openings. Some internal parts carry hazardous voltages and contact can result in a fire or  
electrical shock.  
11 Unplug the TV set from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid or an aerosol  
cleaner.  
12 Never add accessories to a TV set that has not been designed for this purpose. Such  
additions may result in a hazard.  
PORTABLE CART WARNING  
(Symbol provided by RETAC)  
13 For added protection of the TV set during a lightning storm or when the TV set is to be left  
unattended for an extended period of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the  
antenna. This will prevent damage to product due to lightning storms or power line surges.  
14 A TV set and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force,  
and uneven surfaces may cause the TV set and cart combination to overturn.  
Service  
15 Unplug this TV set from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel  
under the following conditions:  
A. When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.  
B. If liquid has been spilled into the TV set.  
C. If the TV set has been exposed to rain or water.  
D. If the TV set does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust  
only those controls that are covered in the operating instructions as improper adjustment  
of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a  
qualified technician to restore the TV set to normal operation.  
E. If the TV set has been dropped or damaged in any way.  
F. When the TV set exhibits a distinct change in performance — this indicates a need for  
service.  
16 Do not attempt to service this TV set yourself as opening or removing covers may  
expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service  
personnel.  
17 When replacement parts are required, have the service technician verify in writing that the  
replacement parts he uses have the same safety characteristics as the original parts. Use  
of manufacturer’s specified replacement parts can prevent fire, shock, or other hazards.  
18 Upon completion of any service or repairs to this TV set, please ask the service technician  
to perform the safety check described in the manufacturer’s service literature.  
19 When a TV set reaches the end of its useful life, improper disposal could result in a picture  
tube implosion. Ask a qualified service technician to dispose of the TV set.  
20 Note to 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 building, as close to the  
point of cable entry as practical.  
Warnings  
Screen Burn-in  
By displaying fixed images for extended periods of time, can leave a subtle but permanent ghost  
image in your picture. This is referred to as "burn-in". To avoid this, mix your viewing pattern.  
Examples include, but are not limited to the following:  
• Stock-market report bars  
For example...  
• Shopping channel logos and pricing displays  
• Video game patterns or scoreboards  
• Bright station logos  
TV on  
TV off  
• Internet web sites or other computer-style  
images.  
• DVD discs, video tapes, laser discs  
• Broadcast, cable, satellite channels or digital  
television tuners/converters.  
XYZ  
XYZ  
Note: Warranty DOES NOT cover screen  
burn-in or uneven picture tube aging.  
Caring for the Cabinet  
Normally, light dusting with a soft, non-scratching duster will keep your TV clean.  
If you wish to wipe down the television, first unplug it. Then wipe gently with a soft cloth, slightly  
moistened with water. You can add a few drops of mild liquid detergent to the water to help  
remove spots of oily dirt.  
• DO NOT allow liquid to enter the TV through the ventilation slots.  
• DO NOT use strong or abrasive cleaners on the TV.  
• DO NOT spray liquids or cleaners directly on the TV’s surface.  
• DO NOT rub or scrub the TV harshly. Wipe the set gently with a soft cloth.  
Caring for the Screen  
The screen is treated with an electrostatic-proof coating. When it gets dirty, wipe it gently with a  
soft cloth. If the screen is very dirty, wipe it down with a cloth dipped in a diluted kitchen cleaner  
and thoroughly wrung-out. Then wipe immediately after with a clean, dry cloth.  
Do not apply alcohol, organic solvents (like acetone), acidic or alkaline cleansers to the screen.  
These will remove the coating layer and cause discolorations.  
Do not push or hit the screen. This could cause scratches on the screen surface and image  
distortions.

Getting Started  
These quick setup pages will provide you, in three easy steps, with the basic information you  
need to begin using your new television right away.  
If you have questions, or for more detailed information on any of these steps, please consult  
other sections of this manual.  
Step 1 – The Remote Control  
Before you can operate your remote  
control, you first need to install the

first. Slide the cover back into place.  
When you change the batteries, try to complete the task within three minutes. If you take  
longer than three minutes, the remote control codes for your VCR, DVD, and/or cable  
box/satellite receiver may have to be reset. See pages 26 - 29.

Movies Ratings  
NR – Not Rated  
This is a film which has no rating. In many cases these films were imported from countries  
which do not use the MPAA ratings system. Other NR films may be from amateur producers  
who didn’t intend to have their film widely released.  
NR (Not Rated) Programming may contain all types of programming including  
children’s programming, foreign programs, or adult material.  
G – General Audience  
In the opinion of the review board, these films contain nothing in the way of sexual content,  
violence, or language that would be unsuitable for audiences of any age.  
PG – Parental Guidance  
Parental Guidance means the movie may contain some contents such as mild violence,  
some brief nudity, and strong language. The contents are not deemed intense.  
PG-13 – Parents Strongly Cautioned  
Parents with children under 13 are cautioned that the content of movies with this rating may  
include more explicit sexual, language, and violence content than movies rated PG.  
R – Restricted  
These films contain material that is explicit in nature and is not recommended for  
unsupervised children under the age of 17.  
NC-17 – No One Under 17  
These movies contain content which most parents would feel is too adult for their children  
to view. Content can consist of strong language, nudity, violence, and suggestive or explicit  
subject matter.

the proper portions, the output of these three color tubes can produce any color. To produce  
these colors, however, the beams must be precisely aligned over each other so that the colors  
can be mixed. The process of aligning these picture beams is called “convergence”.  
Attention:  
• Please have your TV on for at least 20 minutes before using this feature.  
• This adjustment will be needed only when the colors of the characters/lines are separated  
and lack in distinction. If not, please don’t perform the adjustment.  
Colors may become separated after the TV has been moved, or

over a long period of time if regularly subjected to low levels of  
vibrations. If the colors become separated, please perform the

Activate the split-screen option by pressing SPLIT on the remote control.  
A channel (or input) will now appear onscreen. The  
channel (or input) you were watching before pressing

Button Functions  
Cable Box Note:  
The Multi-Screen function may not operate when used with certain cable boxes. This is  
because while some models of cable boxes may receive up to 181 channels, and may only  
send the signal from one channel to your television. (Please refer to diagram on page 14). For  
the Multi screen function to operate correctly, it must have access to all available channels.  
Since the television is receiving the signal from only one channel from the cable box, it is  
impossible for the Multi-screen function to display a second, different channel. Because there  
are many different models of cable boxes in use today, if you are having problems operating  
your Multi-screen function feature with your cable box, we recommend you contact your local  
cable company for connection advice.  
Index  
This allows you to quickly look at up to 12 channels at a time so that you can decide which one  
to watch.

function will cancel out.
