Front Connection Panel (Video 3)
There are four jacks on the right front side
behind the screen on your projection TV that
make connecting Audio/Video devices like
video games and camcorders very simple.
The jacks are like those found on the back
jack connection panel. This means that most
equipment that connects to those types of
jacks on the rear jackpack, may be connected
to the front connection panel (Video3).
To use the front jacks as the signal source,
select them using Main Source menu as
described on page 33. They will be named
“Video 3” in the Main Source menu.

If you receive your RF signal
through an antenna that is several
years old and connects with two
small prongs, you will need to pur-
chase a 300 to 75 ohm adapter. It
should be available from your local
electronics dealer.
Zenith recommends using a 75
ohm cable for your antenna con-
nections in order to prevent
interference.
For best signal reception, it is recommended to have your Antenna professionally adjusted.

Cable Box Connections
Some cable services require the use of a cable box to decode pre-
mium channels and pay-per-view. Using the Loop Out to Decoder
connection option, and programming your remote, you can con-
nect your cable box so that you only need your MBR remote to
tune to premium and non-premium channels. By connecting a
cable box directly to your TV, as shown to the LOOP OUT, you
make the cable box another available channel tuning source using
your remote.
Locate the Antenna/Cable 2 jack on the
back of your TV. Connect the cable that
runs from the wall directly or antenna to
the jack. Now find the Loop Out jack.

Maintenance
Early malfunctions can be prevented. Careful and regular cleaning can extend the amount of time you will
have your new TV. Be sure to turn the power off and pull out the power cord before you begin any cleaning.
SCREEN CLEANING
1. Here’s a great way to keep the dust off your screen for a while. Wet a soft cloth in a mixture of
lukewarm water and a little fabric softener or dish washing detergent. Wring the cloth until it’s
almost dry, and then use it to wipe the screen.
2. Make sure the excess water is off the screen, and then let it air-dry before you turn on your TV.
CABINET CLEANING
1. Use a soft cloth with a mild soap solution to wipe the cabinet.
2. Rinse the cloth and wipe the cabinet again.
3. Let the cabinet air-dry before turning the TV on.
WOOD CABINETS
Use a quality wood cleaner and polish. This will protect the TV from dirt and dust, as well as keep
the cabinet looking new.
EXTENDED ABSENCE
If you leave your TV dormant for a long time (such as a vacation), it’s a good idea to unplug the
power cord to protect against possible damage from lightning or power surges. If you use an off-air
antenna, you may also want to disconnect it from the back of your TV before leaving.

PICTURE INTERFERENCE
Even though you may be getting cable, the signal may be weak, which means the quality
of your picture may suffer due to other factors. If there are problems with the image on your TV,
consult the Troubleshooting guide on the following pages. You may also want to contact your cable
service provider to determine if the problem is from the cable service.
VIDEO GAMES AND OTHER FIXED-PATTERN DISPLAYS
If you use your TV to play video games or for other uses that have single,
fixed images, such as a photo-CD player, you should avoid setting the Brightness level too high.
If static images, like network identification patterns, are left on the screen for too long, they can
leave a permanent impression on the TV screen. You can reduce the chance of this happening by
limiting the amount of time you use the fixed-image display, and by reducing the contrast and
brightness levels.
If you unplug your TV, you may have to reset the clock using the Time menu described earlier.

Glossary
A list of definitions for some of the words found in this guide.
75 OHM RF CABLE
The round cable that comes from an off-air antenna or cable service
provider. Each end looks like a hex shaped nut with a wire sticking
through the middle, and it screws onto the threaded jack on the back of
your TV.
A/V CABLES
Audio/Video cables. Three cables - Right audio (red), Left audio (white),
and Video (yellow). A/V cables are used for stereo playback of videocas-
settes and for higher quality picture and sound from other A/V devices.
A/V DEVICE
ADD
Any device that produces video or sound (VCR, DVD, cable box,
or television).
This function lets you add new channels to the channel list in memory
that you’ll scroll through when using your remote.
AMPLIFIER
ANALOG TV
ANTENNA
An external device that amplifies sound from a television, CD player, VCR,
DVD or other A/V device.
Traditional method of representing a television signal as a replica (analog)
of the original picture and sound.
The physical receiver of television signals sent over the air. A large metal
piece of equipment does not always have to be visible for your home to
be using an antenna.
ARC
The ratio of the horizontal dimension to the vertical dimension of a pic-
ture. Standard television in the U.S. today is generally transmitted and
displayed in a 4:3 aspect ratio. High-Definition television will normally be
formatted in a wider aspect ratio, assumed to be 16:9.
(Aspect Ratio Control)
CAPTIONS
A form of subtitling that writes out the dialog for your program on the
screen.
CONVERGENCE

This option lets you correct for color separation in your picture.
This function lets you remove channels that you don’t watch from the
channel list in memory.
DIGITAL TV
A new method of representing a television signal as a series of binary
numbers (1s and 0s). This method allows the signal to be manipulated to
eliminate redundancy and dramatically increase picture and sound quality.
DOLBY DIGITAL
Dolby Digital Cinema Sound is made possible by a new digital coding tech-
nique called Dolby AC-3. Dolby AC-3 produces high-quality, 5.1 channel
surround sound which is six discrete separate channels for a full range of
sound. Each channel can carry a different signal simultaneously (front
center, front left, front right, surround left, surround right and subwoofer).
