Safety information

• Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the television.

• If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the television, 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 70, provides information with regard 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-discharge unit, connection to grounding

electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

• Use No. 10 AWG (5.3 mm

2

) copper, No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm

2

) aluminum, No. 17 AWG

(1.0 mm

2

) copper-clad steel or bronze wire, or larger, as a ground wire.

• Secure antenna lead-in and ground wires to house with stand-off insulators spaced

from 4-6 feet (1.22 -1.83 m) apart.

• Mount antenna discharge unit as close as possible to where lead-in enters house.

• Use jumper wire not smaller than No. 6 AWG (13.3 mm

2

) copper, or the equivalent,

when a separate antenna-grounding electrode is used. See ANSI/NFPA70.

• An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead 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 touching such power lines

or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

Safety information

5

• For added protection for this television during a lightning storm, or when it is left

unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the power outlet and

disconnect it from the antenna or cable system. This prevents damage to the television

due to lightning and power line surges.

• Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords, because overloading can cause a fire

or electric shock.

• Never push objects of any kind into this television through slots in the case, as they

may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a fire or

electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the television.

• Do not attempt to service this television yourself, because opening or removing covers

may expose you to dangerous voltages or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified

service technicians.

• Unplug this television from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service

technicians under the following conditions:

• When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.

• If liquid has been spilled into the television.

• If the television has been exposed to rain or water.

• If the television does not operate normally by following the operating instructions.

Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions, because

incorrect adjustment of other controls may result in damage and often requires

extensive work by a qualified technician to restore normal operation.

• If the television has been dropped or the case has been damaged.

• When the television exhibits a distinct change in performance.

• When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used

replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as

the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other

hazards.

• Upon completion of any service or repairs to this television, ask the service technician

to perform routine safety checks to determine that the television is safe to operate.

Setting up your television

Connecting your television to AC power

Use the AC polarized cord provided for operation on AC. Insert the AC plug into a standard

120V 60Hz polarized AC outlet.

Notes:

- Never connect the AC plug to other than the specified voltage (120V 60 Hz). Use the

attached power cord only.

- If the polarized AC cord does not fit into a non-polarized AC outlet, do not file or cut the

blade. It is your responsibility to have an electrician replace the obsolete outlet.

- If you cause a static discharge when touching the television and the television fails to

work, unplug the television from the AC outlet, then plug it back in. The television should

work normally.

Installing batteries in the remote control

Before using the remote control, you must install batteries. Use two AAA size batteries (not

supplied). The batteries may last about one year depending on how much the remote control

is used. For best performance, we recommend the batteries should be replaced on a yearly

basis, or when the remote operation becomes erratic. Do not mix old and new batteries or

different types.

Connecting to an antenna

Combination VHF/UHF antenna (single 75 ohm cable or 300 ohm

twin-lead wire) or cable TV

Notes:

- We recommend that you use 75 ohm coaxial cable to eliminate interference and noise.

- Connect the 75 ohm cable from the combination VHF/UHF antenna, cable wall outlet, or

descrambler box to the Antenna Input jack on the TV.

- If you subscribe to a cable television service which requires the use of a converter/

descrambler box, connect the incoming 75 ohm coaxial cable to the converter/

descrambler box. Using another 75 ohm coaxial cable, connect the output jack of the

converter/descrambler box to the RF IN jack on the television.

-Set the television to the output channel of the converter/descrambler box (usually

channel 3 or 4) and use the converter/descrambler box to select channels.

- If your combination VHF/UHF antenna has a 300 ohm twin-lead wire, you may need to

use a 300-75 ohm matching transformer.

- Antenna cables should not be bundled with electrical power cords.

- If the antenna is not installed correctly, see your dealer for assistance.

Connecting to other equipment

The exact arrangement you use to interconnect various video and audio components to the

television is dependent on the model and features of each component. Check the owner's

manual provided with each component for the location of video and audio inputs and

outputs.

The following connection diagrams are offered as suggestions. You may need to modify them

to accommodate your particular components. The diagrams are intended to show

component video and audio interconnections only.

Selecting the video input source

Press INPUT on the remote to view a signal from another device connected to your

television, such as a VCR or DVD player. You can select ANT, AV1 (or S-Video), AV2 (on the side

panel), or COMPONENT depending on which input jacks you used to connect your devices.

Note: The S-Video input uses the same circuit as AV1. If both S-Video and AV1 inputs are

connected, the S-Video signal overrides the AV1 signal and SVIDEO is shown on the

on-screen display. To watch the AV1 input, disconnect the S-Video cable.
