TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS  
CAUTION: A video source (such as a video game, Compact Disc Interactive - CDI, or  
TV information channel) which shows a constant non-moving pattern on the TV screen,  
can cause picture tube damage. When your TV is continuously used with such a source  
the pattern of the non-moving portion of the game (CDI, etc.) could leave an image  
permanently on the picture tube. When not in use, turn the video source OFF.  
Regularly alternate the use of such video sources with normal TV viewing.

Pbefore calling for service. These  
tips can save you time and money since  
charges for TV installation and adjust-  
ment of customer controls are not cov-  
ered under your warranty.
