trols and a personal control that you set according to your own
preferences through the onscreen Sound menu. The three facto-
ry-set controls (Voice, Music, and Theatre) enable you to tailor
the TV sound so as to enhance the particular programming you

Cable Descriptions:
Video and audio cables with standard
RCA (phono) connectors connect the
video and audio jacks of accessory
devices such as VCRs and DVD players
to the jacks on the TV.
A 75-ohm coaxial cable connects signals
from an antenna or a cable TV company
to the antenna jack on the back of the TV.
Coaxial cables use “F” connectors.
Yellow - Video
A 300- to 75-ohm twin-lead adapter
accepts the antenna cables (called twin-
lead wires) from an antenna, allowing
you to connect the antenna signal to the
TV.
These connectors are usually color coded.
The jacks on your TV are also color
coded to match the colors of the connec-
tors. Yellow for video (composite) and
Red and White for the right and left audio
channels. The video cables used to con-
nect component video or RGB (high-reso-
lution) jacks are color coded red, green,
and blue.
White - Audio Left
Red - Audio Right
An S-Video cable provides better picture
performance than regular (composite)
video connections.
S-Video cables can be used only with S-
Video-compatible accessory devices. You
must also connect the left and right audio
cables to the AV 2 Audio in jacks because
the S-Video jack carries only the picture
signal, not the sound.
A two-way signal splitter enables you to
take a single antenna or cable TV signal
and supply it to two different inputs.

USING THE CO MPO NENT VIDEO INPUT (CVI) JACKS
omponent Video inputs provide for the
Chighest possible color and picture resolu-
tion in the playback of digital signal source
material, such as with DVD players. The
color difference signals (Pb, Pr) and the lumi-
nance (Y) signal are connected and received
separately, which allows for improved color
bandwidth information (not possible when
using composite video or S-Video connec-
tions).
The CVI connection will be dominate
over the AV 1 Video Input. When a
Component Video Device is connected
as described, it is best not to have a
video signal connected to the AV 1
Video Input jack.

UNDERSTANDING THE AUTO LO CK™ FEATURE
he AutoLock™ feature receives and
Tprocesses data sent by broadcasters or
other program providers that contain pro-
gram content advisories. When programmed
by the viewer, a TV with AutoLock™ can
respond to the content advisories and block
program content that may be found objection-
able (such as offensive language, violence,
sexual situations, etc.). This is a great feature
to censor the type of programming children
may watch.

CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING Concerning Stationary Im ages on the TV
PLACEMENT O F THE TV
Screen:
• To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and
increased chance of set failure, do not place the TV where
temperatures can become excessively hot; for example, in
direct sunlight or near a heating appliance.
Do not leave stationary or letterbox im ages on screen
for extended periods of tim e. This can cause uneven
picture-tube aging.
• Be sure to allow a free flow of air to and from the perforated
back cover of the set.
Normal use of the TV should involve the showing of pictures
that contain constantly moving and changing images that fill the
screen. Be careful not to leave nonmoving images on screen for
extended periods of time, or to display the same images on
screen too frequently, because subtle ghost images can be left
on the picture tubes. Sources of stationary images may be DVD
disks, laser disks, video games, CD-i disks, videotapes, digital
television boxes, broadcast channels, cable channels, satellite
channels, and others. Here are some examples of stationary
images (this is not an all-inclusive list; you may encounter
others in your viewing):
CLEANING
• To avoid possible shock hazard, be sure the TV is unplugged
from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
• Regularly dust the TV with a dry, nonscratching duster to
keep the TV clean.
• When cleaning the TV, 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.
• DVD m enus—listings of DVD disk content
• Letterbox black bars—shown at the top and bottom of the
TV screen when a wide screen (16:9) movie is viewed on a
TV with standard (4:3) aspect ratio.
• 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.
• Video-gam e im ages and scoreboards
• Television station logos—present a problem if they are
bright and stationary; moving or low-contrast graphics are
less likely to cause uneven aging of the picture tube
• Occasionally vacuum the ventilation holes or slots in the back
cover of the set.
• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on
or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring
of the cabinet finish.
• Stock-m arket tickers—presented at the bottom of the TV
screen
• Shopping channel logos and pricing displays—bright
and shown constantly or repeatedly in the same location on
the TV screen.

No Power
Rem ote Does Not Work Continued
• Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 10 seconds,
then reinsert the plug into the outlet and push the POWER
button again.
• Check that the outlet is not on a wall switch.
• Be sure the fuse is not blown on the AC power strip, if one is
being used.
• Clean the remote control and the remote control sensor win-
dow on the TV.
• Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 10 seconds,
then reinsert the plug into the outlet and push the POWER
button again.
• Be sure the fuse is not blown on the AC power strip, if one is
being used.
• Check to be sure the TV outlet is not on a wall switch.
No Picture
• Check antenna connections. Are they properly secured to the
TV's ANT 75Ω plug?
TV Displays W rong Channel or No Channels Above 13
• Check the TUNER MODE control for the correct tuner set-
ting.
• Repeat channel selection.
• Add the desired channel numbers (using the CHANNEL
EDIT control) into the TV’s memory.

channels.
• Press the AV button on the remote to make sure the correct
signal source is selected (FRONT or Current Channel).
TV Displays white lines in letterbox when viewing a
DVD disc
No Sound
• Some DVD Discs are encoded with as much as 30% more
video information to give the best possible picture quality.
With the DVD Player in the 16:9 picture format, the play-
back of this type of disc with extra video information, can
produce a number of small white lines in the upper portion
of the black letterbox area. With some of these discs, this sit-
uation is unavoidable and it does not require a service call.
• Check the VOLUME buttons.
• Check the MUTE button on the remote control.
• If you’re attempting to hook up auxiliary equipment, check
the audio jack connections located on the front of the TV.
Rem ote Does Not Work
• Check the batteries. If necessary, replace them with AA
Heavy Duty (Zinc Chloride) or Alkaline batteries.
