IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
CHILD SAFETY  
It Makes A Difference How and Where You Use Your Flat Panel Display  
Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new product, please keep these safety tips in mind:  
THE ISSUE  
• The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend and larger flat panel  
displays are popular purchases. However, flat panel displays are not always supported on  
the proper stands or installed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.  
• Flat panel displays that are inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves,  
desks, speakers, chests or carts may fall over and cause injury.  
THIS MANUFACTURER CARES!  
• The consumer electronics industry is committed to making home entertainment enjoyable  
and safe.  
TUNE INTO SAFETY  
• One size does NOT fit all. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the safe  
installation and use of your flat panel display.  
• Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for proper use of this product.  
• Don’t allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television sets.  
• Don’t place flat panel displays on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a  
chest of drawers.  
• Remember that children can become excited while watching a program, especially on  
a “larger than life” flat panel display. Care should be taken to place or install the display  
where it cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.  
• Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the flat panel display  
so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children.  
WALL MOUNTING: IF YOU DECIDE TO WALL MOUNT YOUR FLAT PANEL  
DISPLAY, ALWAYS:  
• Use a mount that has been recommended by the display manufacturer and/or listed by  
an independent laboratory (such as UL, CSA, ETL).  
• Follow all instructions supplied by the display and wall mount manufacturers.  
• If you have any doubts about your ability to safely install your flat panel display, contact  
your retailer about professional installation.  
• Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the display is appropriate. Some wall  
mounts are not designed to be mounted to walls with steel studs or old cinder block  
construction. If you are unsure, contact a professional installer.  
• A minimum of two people are required for installation. Flat panel displays can be heavy.

Preparation  
Using the remote control unit  
Use the remote control unit by pointing it towards the remote control sensor on  
the TV/DVD. Objects between the remote control unit and the remote control  
sensor may prevent proper operation.  
Cautions regarding remote control unit  
• Do not expose the remote control unit to shock.  
In addition, do not expose the remote control unit to liquids, and do not place in an area  
with high humidity.  
• Do not install or place the remote control unit under direct sunlight. The heat may cause  
deformation of the remote control unit.  
• The remote control unit may not work properly if the remote control sensor on the TV/DVD  
is under direct sunlight or strong lighting. In such cases, change the angle of the lighting or  
the TV/DVD, or operate the remote control unit closer to the remote control sensor.  
Antennas  
To enjoy a clearer picture, use an outdoor antenna. The following is a brief explanation of the types of  
connections that are used for a coaxial cable. If your outdoor antenna uses a 75-ohm coaxial cable with an  
F-type connector, plug it into the antenna terminal at the rear of the TV set.  
1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type  
connector that can easily be attached to a terminal  
without tools (Commercially available).  
F-type connector should be  
fingertightened only.  
NOTICE  
When connecting the RF cable to the TV set, do not tighten  
F-type connector  
F-type connector with tools.  
If tools are used, it may cause damage to your TV set. (The  
breaking of internal circuit, etc.)  
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  
adapter (Commercially available).

Setting MTS/SAP stereo mode  
NOTE  
The TV/DVD has a feature that allows reception of  
sound other than the main audio for the program.  
This feature is called Multi-channel Television Sound  
(MTS). The TV/DVD with MTS can receive mono  
sound, stereo sound and Secondary Audio Programs  
(SAP). The SAP feature allows a TV/DVD station to  
broadcast other information, which could be audio in  
another language or something completely different  
like weather information.  
• Memorizing channels is best accomplished during evening  
“PRIMETIME” hours, as more stations are broadcasting  
digital signals. Memorizing channels can only be  
accomplished while a station is broadcasting a digital  
signal to set that channel into memory.  
• New digital channels may be added to your area  
periodically, it is recommended to perform the “Automatic  
Search” procedure regularly.

• If no caption signal is received, no captions will appear, but the television will remain in the Caption Mode.  
• Misspellings or unusual characters may occasionally appear during Closed Captioning. This is normal with Closed  
Captioning, especially with live programs. This is because during live programs, captions are also entered live. These  
transmissions do not allow time for editing.  
• When Captions are being displayed, on-screen displays, such as volume and mute may be seen but may interfere with  
Closed Captions.  
• Some Cable TV systems and copy protection systems may interfere with the Closed Captioned signal.  
• If using an indoor antenna or if TV reception is very poor, the Closed Caption Decoder may not appear or may appear with  
strange characters or misspelled words. In this case, adjust the antenna for better reception or use an outdoor antenna.  
• When a Digital TV Program has both Digital Closed Caption and Analog Closed Caption signals, Digital Closed Caption is  
displayed.

Parental control (V-CHIP)  
V-CHIP might not function according to the condition of the signal from the broadcasting station.  
V-CHIP is an electronic filtering device built into your TV/DVD. This tool gives parents a great degree of control  
over broadcasts accessed by their children. It allows parents to select programs judged suitable for child viewing  
while blocking ones judged not suitable. It does so automatically once you activate the V-CHIP feature in your  
TV/DVD.  
V-CHIP menu will not be selectable from the menu if you do not first configure your password.  
(See page 20 for password setting for parental control.)  
• The U.S. has two rating systems for viewing content: movie ratings and TV Parental Guidelines.  
• The TV Parental Guidelines work in conjunction with the V-CHIP to help parents screen out inappropriate television shows  
from their children.  
• Movie ratings are used for original movies rated by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) as watched on cable  
TV and not edited for television. The V-CHIP can also be set to block MPAA-rated movies.

Canadian rating systems  
• The TV rating systems in Canada are based on the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission  
(CRTC) policy on violence in television programming.  
• While violence is the most important content element to be rated, the structure developed takes into consideration other  
program content like language, nudity, sexuality and mature themes.  
• When setting the V-CHIP on the Canadian system you can choose either the Canadian English ratings or the Canadian  
French ratings.

Playback procedure  
1
• If the TV/DVD does not operate properly:  
Static electricity, etc., may affect the player’s operation.  
Disconnect the AC power cord once, then connect it  
again.  
Place the disc in the disc slot with the label side  
facing forward. (If the disc has a label.) Hold the  
disc without touching its surface, align it with the  
guides, and place it in position.  
• If a disc is inserted during some modes other than DVD  
mode, it may switch to DVD mode and then playback may  
be begun automatically.  
• If a disc is inserted during some modes other than DVD  
mode, it may switch to DVD mode and then playback  
may be begun automatically.  
• About inserting disc:  
If the unit is slanted or moved while inserting disc, the disc  
may get damage.  
NOTE  
• If a non-compatible disc is loaded, “Incorrect Disc”, “Region Code Error” or “Parental Error” will appear on the TV screen  
according to the type of loaded disc. If these appear, check your disc again (see pages 6 and 33).  
• Some discs may take a minute or so to start playback.  
• When an 8 cm disc is placed into the disc slot, and the playback picture or menu display does not appear, press PLAY.  
• A “Prohibition” symbol “ ” may appear at the upper right of the screen. This symbol means either the feature you tried is  
not available on the disc, or the TV/DVD cannot access the feature at this time. This does not indicate a problem with the  
TV/DVD.  
• When you set a single-faced disc label downwards (i.e. the wrong way up) “Reading” will appear on the display and then  
“Incorrect Disc” will be displayed.  
• Some playback operations of DVDs may be intentionally fixed by software producers. Since this TV/DVD plays DVDs  
according to the disc content recorded, some playback features may not be available. Also refer to the instructions supplied  
with the DVDs.  
• Do not move the unit during playback. Doing so may damage the disc.  
• Use EJECT to unload and eject the disc.  
• Do not put any objects other than discs on the disc slot. Doing so may cause the unit to malfunction.  
• In many instances, a menu screen will appear after playback of a movie is completed. Prolonged display of an on-screen  
menu may damage your television set, permanently etching that image onto its screen. To avoid this, be sure to press  
POWER on your remote control once the movie is completed.  
• There may be a slight delay between the button is pressed and the function activates.

Troubleshooting  
Problem  
Possible Solution  
• No power  
• Check if you pressed POWER on the TV/DVD,or on the remote control unit.  
(See page 16.)  
• Is the AC cord disconnected? (See page 9.)  
• Has the power been turned on? (See page 16.)  
• Unit cannot be operated.  
• External influences such as lightning, static electricity, may cause improper  
operation. In this case, operate the unit after first turning off the power of the TV/  
DVD or unplugging the AC cord and replugging it in after 1 or 2 minutes.  
• Remote control unit does not  
operate.  
• Are batteries inserted with polarity (+, –) aligned? (See page 10.)  
• Are batteries worn out? (Replace with new batteries.)  
• Are you using it under strong or fluorescent lighting?  
• Is a fluorescent light illuminated near the remote control sensor?  
• Picture is cut off/with sidebar  
screen.  
• Are screen mode adjustments such as view mode choose made correctly? (See  
page 18.)  
• Strange color, light color, or color • Adjust the picture tone. (See page 24.)  
misalignment  
• Is the room too bright? The picture may look dark in a room that is too bright.  
• Power is suddenly turned off.  
• Is the sleep timer set? (See page 13.)  
• Check the Auto Shut Off settings. (See page 24.)  
• The unit’s internal temperature has increased.  
Remove any objects blocking vent or clean.  
• No picture  
• No sound  
• Is connection to other components correct? (See page 15.)  
• Is correct input signal source selected after connection? (See page 15.)  
• Is the correct input selected? (See page 15.)  
• Is picture adjustment correct? (See page 24.)  
• Is the volume too low? (See page 13.)  
• Have you pressed MUTE on the remote control unit? (See page 13.)  
• The TV sometimes makes a  
cracking sound.  
• This is not a malfunction. This happens when the cabinet slightly expands and  
contracts according to change in temperature. This does not affect the TV’s  
performance.

• Make sure the output signal of the PC and the input signal setting of the LCD TV set

center of the screen.  
Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments  
• When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, office), the picture may leave trails or appear slightly  
delayed. This is not a malfunction, and the unit will recover when the temperature returns to normal.  
• Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a  
heater, as this may cause the cabinet to deform and the Liquid Crystal panel to malfunction.
