UNDERSTANDING THE SMARTLOCK CONTROLS
martLock receives and processes
Sdata sent by broadcasters that con-
tains program content advisories.
When programmed by the viewer, a
TV with SmartLock can respond to the
content advisories and block objec-
tionable program content (offensive
language, violence, sexual situations,
etc.). This is a great feature to censor
the type of viewing children may
watch.

CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING Concerning Stationary Images on the TV
Screen:
PLACEMENT OF THE TV
• To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and
increased chance of set failure, do not place the TV where
temperatures can become excessively hot (for example, in
direct sunlight or near a heating appliance).
Do not leave stationary or letterbox images on the
screen for extended periods of time. This can cause
uneven picture tube aging.
• Be sure to allow a free flow of air to and from the perforated
back cover of the set.
Normal use of the TV should involve showing pictures that con-
tain constantly moving and changing images that fill the screen.
Do not leave non-moving images on the screen for extended
periods of time or display the same images on the screen too
frequently. Subtle ghost images can be left on the picture tube.
Sources of stationary images may be DVDs, laser discs, video
games, CD-i discs, videotapes, digital television boxes, broad-
cast channels, cable channels, satellite channels, and others.
Here are some examples of stationary images. (This is not an
all-inclusive list; you may encounter others in your viewing.)
CLEANING
• To avoid possible shock hazard, be sure the TV is unplugged
from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
• Regularly dust the TV with a dry, non-scratching duster to
keep the TV clean.
• When cleaning the TV, take care not to scratch or damage the
screen surface. Avoid wearing jewelry or using anything
abrasive. Do not use household cleaners. Wipe the front
screen with a clean cloth dampened with water. Use even,
easy, vertical strokes when cleaning.
• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or sponge
dampened in a solution of cool, clear water and a mild soap
or detergent. Use a clean, dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.
• DVD menus—listings of DVD content
• Letterbox black bars—shown at the top and bottom of the
TV screen when a wide screen (16:9) movie is viewed on a
TV with a standard (4:3) aspect ratio.
• Video game images and scoreboards
• Television station logos—present a problem if they are
bright and stationary; moving or low-contrast graphics are
less likely to cause uneven aging of the picture tube
• Occasionally vacuum the ventilation holes or slots in the back
cover of the set.
• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on
or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring
of the cabinet finish.
• Stock-market tickers—presented at the bottom of the TV
screen
• Shopping channel logos and pricing displays—bright
and show constantly or repeatedly in the same location on the
TV screen.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS
Audio/Video Inputs • These connectors (phono type plug)
Remote Sensor • A window or opening on the Television con-
trol panel through which infrared remote control signals are
received.
receive audio and video signals from VCRs or other devices.
Auto Program • The procedure of adding or deleting channel
numbers into the Television’s memory. The Television “remem-
bers’’ only the locally available or desired channel numbers and
skips over any unwanted channel numbers.
Status/Exit • Allows the user to quickly confirm the current
channel number. Status can also be used to clear the Television
of on-screen displays or information (rather than waiting for the
displays to “time out” or automatically disappear from the
screen).
Closed Caption • Broadcast standard which allows you to read
the voice content of television programs on the TV screen.
Designed to help the hearing impaired, this feature uses on-
screen "text boxes" to show dialog and conversations while the
TV program is in progress.
Surf • Scanning specific channels in a limited channel list.
Tuner Mode • Designed for first time set up and use where the
TV is set for antenna or cable TV signal connections.
Coaxial Cable • A single solid antenna wire normally matched
with a metal (F-type) connector that screws (or pushes) directly
onto a 75 Ohm input found on the Television or VCR.
Twin Lead Wire • The more commonly used name for the two
strand 300 Ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and out-
door antenna systems. In many cases this type of antenna wire
requires an additional adapter (or balun) in order to connect to
the 75 Ohm Input terminals on recent Televisions and VCRs.
Menu • An on-screen listing of feature controls that are avail-
able for adjustment.
On-screen Displays (OSD) • The wording or messages generat-
ed by the television to help the user with specific feature con-
trols (color adjustment, programming, etc.).
