Using this Manual  
Precautions  
Safety  
We recommend that you carefully review the  
contents of the following four sections in the order  
provided to ensure that you fully understand the  
operation of your new projection TV.  
• Do not install the projection TV in a hot or humid  
place, or in a place subject to excessive dust or  
mechanical vibration.  
• Operate the projection TV only on 120 V AC.  
• The plug is designed, for safety purposes, to fit into  
the wall outlet only one way. If you are unable to  
insert the plug fully into the outlet, contact your  
dealer.  
• Avoid operating the projection TV at temperature  
below 5°C (41°F).  
1 Installing and Connecting the Projection TV  
This section guides you through your initial set  
up. It shows you how to install your projection  
TV, to connect your new components and to  
connect to the antenna and cable.  
• If the projection TV is transported directly from a  
cold to a warm location, or if the room temperature  
changes suddenly, the picture may be blurred or  
show poor color. In this case, please wait a few  
hours to let the moisture evaporate before turning  
on the projection TV.  
• If any liquid or solid object should fall inside the  
cabinet, unplug the projection TV immediately and  
have it checked by qualified service personnel  
before operating it further.  
2 Basic Setup  
This section teaches you the basic skills needed  
to operate your new projection TV, including  
Easy Set Up. It shows you how to operate the  
remote control’s special functions.  
• If you will not be using the projection TV for  
several days, disconnect the power by pulling the  
plug itself. Never pull on the cord.  
• To obtain the best picture, do not expose the screen  
to direct illumination or direct sunlight. It is  
recommended to use spot lighting directed down  
from the ceiling or to cover the windows that face  
the screen with opaque drapery. It is desirable to  
install the projection TV in a room where the floor  
and walls are not of a reflective material.  
For details concerning safety precautions, see  
“Important Safeguards” on page 3.  
3 Using Your New Projection TV  
This section shows you how to begin using  
your new projection TV. It shows you how to  
use your remote control’s features.  
Note on cleaning  
Clean the cabinet of the projection TV with a dry  
soft cloth. To remove dust from the screen, wipe it  
gently with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains may be  
removed with a cloth slightly dampened with  
solution of mild soap and warm water. Never use  
strong solvents such as thinner or benzine for  
cleaning.  
4 Adjusting Your Set Up (menus)  
This section teaches you how to access on-  
screen menus and adjust your projection TV’s  
settings.  
Instructions in this manual are written for the remote  
control. Similar controls may be found on the  
projection TV console.  
If the picture becomes dark after using the  
projection TV for a long period of time, it may be  
necessary to clean the inside of the projection TV.  
Consult qualified service personnel.

Inserting the batteries  
Select  
Insert two size AA (R6) batteries (supplied) by  
matching the + and – on the batteries to the  
diagram inside the remote control’s battery  
compartment.  
The supplied remote control has a joystick which  
moves the on-screen selector in eight directions. In  
most cases, moving the joystick up, down, left or  
right will cause the selector to move in the selected  
direction.  
In some cases, the selector may move in eight  
directions according to the function. Pressing  
down on the center of the joystick ( ) will  
activate the selected item.  
Notes:  
You may also move the joystick right to activate a  
selected item. (There are some exceptions to this  
option.)
