13.OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING-If an outside anten-
na or cable system is connected to the TV, be sure the
antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide
some protection against voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA No. 70, 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-dis-
charge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode. (Fig. A)
19.DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE-Unplug this TV from the
wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service person-
nel under the following conditions:
a. When the power supply cord or plug is damaged or
frayed.
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the
TV.
c. If the TV has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the TV does not operate normally by following the
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that
are covered by the operating instructions, as improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage and
will often require extensive work by a qualified techni-
cian to restore the TV to its normal operation.
14.LIGHTNING-For added protection for this TV receiver dur-
ing a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall
outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This
will prevent damage to the TV due to lightning and power-
line surges.
e. If the TV has been dropped or damaged in any way.
f. When the TV exhibits a distinct change in performance,
this indicates a need for service.
15.POWER LINES-An outside antenna system should not be
located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other
electric light of 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 touch-
ing such power lines or circuits as contact with them might
be fatal.
20.REPLACEMENT PARTS-When replacement parts are
required, be sure the service technician uses replacement
parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same
characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitu-
tions may result in fire, electric shock, injury to persons or
other hazards.
16.OVERLOADING-Do not overload wall outlets and exten-
sion cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric
shock.
21.SAFETY CHECK-Upon completion of any service or
repairs to this TV, ask the service technician to perform
routine safety checks to determine that the TV is in proper
operating condition.
17.OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY-Never push objects of any
kind into this TV through openings as they may touch dan-
gerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in
a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the
TV.
22.HEAT-This TV product should be situated away from heat
sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other
products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
18.SERVICING-Do not attempt to service this TV yourself as
opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous
voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified
service personnel.

• If the device is not to be used for a long period of time, remove the batteries to prevent damage or injury
from possible battery leakage.
• Do not try to recharge batteries not intended to be recharged; they can overheat and rupture.
Features of digital broadcasting
Digital broadcasting uses the newest broadcasting technology such as compression of audio and video
signals and provides much more improved image and sound quality than analog broadcasting. For image
quality, digital broadcasting have realized the High Definition Television (HDTV) that can display sharper
and finer images than Standard Definition Television (SDTV) with double scanning lines, and can adopt
the 16:9 wide screen format that fits more to range of human vision.
For audio quality, digital broadcasting offers the 5.1ch surround broadcast to give you the feeling of being
at a stadium or a theater.
In addition, digital broadcasting enables to broadcast 2 or 3 programs of Standard Definition Television
(SDTV), which is the analog television format, at the same time by 1 channel. This feature has made the
program planning more diversified. In addition, digital broadcasting has overcome problems experienced
with analog television such as ghosting or interference with digital technology.
Minor channel of digital broadcasting
In digital broadcasting, the selected channel can have the sub channel. It is called the minor channel.
Though the minor channel programs provide a little poorer image quality than the High Definition
Television (HDTV) programs, they have such an advantage as it will not move back other programs even
when a sport relay is extended.

MAINTENANCE
CABINET CLEANING
• Wipe the front panel and other exterior surfaces of
the TV with a soft cloth immersed in lukewarm
water and wrung dry.
IR SIGNAL CHECK
If the remote control doesn’t work properly, You can
test if the remote control sends out the infrared sig-
nal with AM radio or a digital camera (including built-
in camera of cellular phone). It will help to define the
cause of malfunction.
• Never use a solvent or alcohol. Do not spray insec-
ticide liquid near the TV. Such chemicals may
cause damage and discoloration to the exposed
surfaces.
• With an AM radio:
Tune an AM radio to a band with
no broadcasting. Press a button
on remote control toward the
radio. Sound will be fluttering
when you press any key and the
radio receives the signal. This
means the remote control unit is
working.
PICTURE TUBE CLEANING
• Wipe the picture tube of the TV with a soft cloth.
Before cleaning the picture tube, disconnect the
power cord.
SERVICING
• With a digital camera (including built-
in camera of cellular phone):
• Should your unit become inoperative, do not try to
correct the problem by yourself. There are no
userserviceable parts inside. Turn off, unplug the
power cord and please call our help line mentioned
in the warranty, to locate customer service.
Direct a digital camera to remote con-
trol, press and hold a button on remote
control. If infrared light appears
through digital camera, the remote is
working.

lasts or the exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to You. This Warranty gives You specific
legal rights, and You may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
Transferability and Renewals:
This Limited Warranty is not transferable or renewable.
Subrogation:
If We pay for a loss, We may require You to assign Us Your rights of recovery against others. We will not pay for a loss if You impair these rights to recover.
Your rights to recover from others may not be waived.
Arbitration:
In the event of a disagreement between You and Us concerning costs, either of us may make a written demand for arbitration. This must be done within sixty
(60) days after the day You filed Your claim. Each of us will select an arbitrator. The two arbitrators will select an umpire. Each of us will pay the expenses of
the arbitrator We select. The expenses of the umpire will be shared equally. Unless both of us agree otherwise, arbitration will take place in the county and
state in which You live. Local rules apply. A majority decision will be binding.
