Early malfunctions can be prevented. Careful and regular cleaning can extend the amount of time you can enjoy
your new TV.
Caution: Be sure to turn the power off and unplug the power cord before you begin any cleaning.
Cleaning the Screen
Cleaning the Cabinet
To remove dirt or dust, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
Please be sure not to use a wet cloth.
Extended Absence
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.
Make sure the excess water is off the screen, and then let it air-dry before you turn on your TV.
CAUTION
XIf you expect to 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.

PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL
The provided universal remote control can be programmed to operate most remote-controllable devices.
Note that the remote may not control all models of other brands.
Programming a code into a remote mode
To find out whether your remote control can operate each device without programming, turn on the device
(such as a VCR) and press the corresponding mode button on the remote.
After that, press the POWER button. If the device is turned off and it responds properly the remote control
need not be programmed. If not, the remote should be programmed to operate the device. The
programming procedures are explained below.
Press the MENU and MUTE button continuously at the same time for two seconds; the currently selected
device button is illuminated.
If you don't press any button for 20 seconds, the light on the mode button will be turned off. In that case,
you have to repeat from step 2.
Enter the appropriate code from the code table on the following pages. When pressing the button, the light
blinks at a time. If the device turned off, the programming is successful.
Press the MENU button to store the code. After blinking twice, this code is stored.
Test the remote control functions to see if the device responds properly. If not, steps 2-5.

Data Min: 0 ~ Max: C8
* Refer to ‘Real data mapping 2’. See page 86.
22. Channel Tuning (Command: m a)
To tune channel to following physical/major/minor
number.
Digital channels have a Physical, Major, and Minor channel
number. The Physical number is the actual digital channel
number, the Major is the number that the channel should
be mapped to, and the Minor is the sub-channel. Since the
ATSC tuner automatically maps the channel to the Major
number, the Physical number is not required when sending
a command.
Data 0: Physical Channel Number
NTSC air: 02~45, NTSC cable: 01, 0E~7D
ATSC air: 01~45, ATSC cable: 01~87
Data1 & 2: Major Channel Number
Data1: High byte Data2: Low byte
Two bytes are available for the Major and Minor,
normally only the second byte is used.
Data3 & 4: Minor Channel Number
Not needed for NTSC.

APPENDIX
The table above lists the binary code which must be
converted to Hexadecimal before sending. For example:
The binary code to tune the sub source to an NTSC
cable channel is “1000 0001”, which translates to “81”
in Hex.
* 7th bit: For which source do you want to change the
channel.
* 6th bit: Use a two part or one part channel. Most cases
just use 0 since it’s ignored when using NTSC.
* 5th bit: Use 0 with NTSC since it can only use the
physical channel number. Normally use 1 for ATSC since
most times it doesn’t matter what the physical number
is.
* 4th bit: Set to 0.
* 3-0 bits: Choose signal type.
* Tune Command Examples:
1. Tune to the analog (NTSC) cable channel 35.
Data 0 = Physical of 35 = 23
Data 1 & 2 = No Major = 00 00
Data 3 & 4 = No Minor = 00 00
Data 5 = 0000 0001 in binary = 01
Total = ma 00 23 00 00 00 00 01
2. Tune to the digital (ATSC) local channel 30-3.
Data 0 = Don’t know Physical = 00
Data 1 & 2 = Major is 30 = 00 1E
Data 3 & 4 = Minor is 3 = 00 03
Data 5 = 0010 0010 in binary = 22
Total = ma 00 00 00 1E 00 03 22

OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE LICENSE

Version 2, June 1991
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51
Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of
this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General
Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and
change free software - to make sure the software is free for all its
users. This General Public License applies to most of the Free
Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose
authors commit to using it. (Some other free software foundation
software is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License
instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that
you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and
charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or
can get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use
pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do
these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the
rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for
you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
source code. And you must show them these terms so they know
their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software,
and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to
copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make
certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for
this free software. If the software is modified by someone else and
passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is
not the original, so that any problems introduced by others will
not reflect on the original authors' reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making
the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear
that any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not
licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow.
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND
MODIFICATION
0. This license applies to any program or other work which
contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may
be distributed under the terms of this General Public License.
The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and
a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or
any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work
containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or
with modifications and/or translated into another language.
(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the
term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification
are not covered by this license; they are outside its scope. The
act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output
from the program is covered only if its contents constitute a
work based on the program (independent of having been
made by running the program). Whether that is true depends
on what the program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the program's
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep
intact all the notices that refer to this license and to the
absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the
program a copy of this license along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a
copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in
exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the program or any
portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and
copy and distribute such modifications or work under the
terms of section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of
these conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent
notices stating that you changed the files and the date of
any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish,
that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the
90

Program or any part there of, to be licensed as a whole at
no charge to all third parties under the terms of this
license.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands
interactively when run, you must cause it, when started
running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way,
to print or display an announcement including an
appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no
warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and
that users may redistribute the program under these
conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
license. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
does not normally print such an announcement, your work
based on the Program is not required to print an
announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the
Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and
separate works in themselves, then this license, and its terms,
do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as
separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as
part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the
distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this license,
whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire
whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who
wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or
contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the
intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of
derivative or collective works based on the program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on
the program with the Program (or with a work based on the
program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium
does not bring the other work under the scope of this license.
3. You may copy and distribute the program (or a work based on
it, under section 2) in object code or executable form under
the terms of sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do
one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding
machinereadable source code, which must be distributed
under the terms of sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
customarily used for software interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than
your cost of physically performing source distribution, a
complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding
source code, to be distributed under the terms of sections
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software
interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the
offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This
alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution
and only if you received the program in object code or
executable form with such an offer, in accord with
Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the
work for making modifications to it. For an executable work,
complete source code means all the source code for all
modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition
files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and
installation of the executable. However, as a special exception,
the source code distributed need not include anything that is
normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the
major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that
component itself accompanies the executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
access to copy from a designated place, then offering
equivalent access to copy the source code from the same
place counts as distribution of the source code, even though
third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with
the object code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the
Program except as expressly provided under this license. Any
attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the
Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights
under this license. However, parties who have received copies,
or rights, from you under this license will not have their
licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full
compliance.
5. You are not required to accept this license, since you have not
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to
modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These
actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this license.
Therefore, by modifying or distributing the program (or any
work based on the program), you indicate your acceptance of
this license to do so, and all its terms and conditions for
copying, distributing or modifying the program or works based
on it.
6. Each time you redistribute the program (or any work based on
the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license
from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the
Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not
impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of
the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for
enforcing compliance by third parties to this license.

APPENDIX
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of
patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to
patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by
court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the
conditions of this license, they do not excuse you from the
conditions of this license. If you cannot distribute so as to
satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this license and
any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
may not distribute the program at all. For example, if a patent
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the
program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly
through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and
this license would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the
program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable
under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section
is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to
apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe
any patents or other property right claims or to contest
validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of
protecting the integrity of the free software distribution
system, which is implemented by public license practices.
Many people have made generous contributions to the wide
range of software distributed through that system in reliance
on consistent application of that system; it is up to the
author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute
software through any other system and a licensee cannot
impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is
believed to be a consequence of the rest of this license.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the program is restricted in
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted
interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the
program under this license may add an explicit geographical
distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that
distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
excluded. In such case, this license incorporates the limitation
as if written in the body of this license.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such
new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but
may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
program specifies a version number of this license which
applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of
following the terms and conditions either of that version or of
any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If
the program does not specify a version number of this license,
you may choose any version ever published by the Free
Software Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the program into other free
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to
the author to ask for permission. For software which is
copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this.
Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the
free status of all derivatives of our free software and of
promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE,
THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE
PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD
THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE
COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR
CORRECTION.
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR
AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER,
OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE
LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL,
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES
SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF
THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY
HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to apply these terms to your new programs
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the
greatest possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is
to make it free software which everyone can redistribute and
change under these terms.
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
One line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it
does.
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as
published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the
license, or (at your option) any later version.
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but
WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
See the GNU General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public
License along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA
02110-1301 USA.
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and
paper mail.
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
when it starts in an interactive mode:
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for
details type ‘show w’. This is free software, and you are welcome to
redistribute it under certain conditions; type ‘show c’ for details.
The hypothetical commands ‘show w’ and ‘show c’ should show
the appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the
commands you use may be called something other than ‘show w’
and ‘show c’; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu
items-whatever suits your program.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer)
or your school, if any, to sign a “copyright disclaimer” for the
program, if necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the
program ‘Gnomovision’ (which makes passes at compilers) written
by James Hacker.
Signature of Ty Coon, 1 April 1989
Ty Coon, President of Vice
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your
program into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine
library, you may consider it more useful to permit linking
proprietary applications with the library. If this is what you want to
do, use the GNU Lesser General Public License instead of this
license.
