SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - Read before operating equipment
This product was designed and manufactured to meet strict quality and
safety standards. There are, however, some installation and operation precautions which you should be particularly aware of.
1.

Read Instructions - All the safety and operating instructions should
be read before the appliance is operated.
2. Retain Instructions - The safety and operating instructions should

instructions should be adhered to.
4. Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be
followed.
5. Water and Moisture - The appliance should not be used near water
- for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub,
in a wet basement or near a swimming pool, etc.
6. Carts and Stands - The appliance should be used only with a cart or
stand that is recommended by the manufacturer.
6A.
An appliance and cart combination should be moved
with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to
overturn.
7. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a
wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.
8. Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or
position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example,
the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar
surface that may block the ventilation openings; or, placed in a builtin installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the
flow of air through the ventilation openings.
9. Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources
such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
10. Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as
marked on the appliance.
11. Power-Cord Protection - Power supply cords should be routed so
that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed
upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords and plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
appliance.

12. Cleaning - The appliance should be cleaned only as recommended
by the manufacturer.
13. Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be located away from
power lines.
14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna is connected to
the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up static
charges.
Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984,
provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mats
and supporting structure grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding connectors, location of antennadischarge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and requirements for the grounding electrode. See Fig. below.
15. Non-use Periods - The power cord of the appliance should be
unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time.
16. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects do not
fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings.
17. Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be serviced by
qualified service personnel when:
A. The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the appliance;
or
C. The appliance has been exposed to rain; or
D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a
marked change in performance; or
E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.
18. Servicing - The user should not attempt to service the appliance
beyond that described in the operating instructions. All other servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.

Note to the CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the
CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the
cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building,
as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

END-OF-LIFE DISPOSAL
Your new television and its packing contain
materials that can be recycled and reused.
Specialized companies can recycle your
product to increase the amount of reusable
materials and minimize the amounts which
need to be properly disposed.
Your product also uses batteries which
should not be thrown away when depleted,
but should be handed in and disposed of as
small chemical waste.
Please find out about the local regulations
on how to dispose of your old television,
batteries, and packing materials whenever
you replace existing equipment.

H

ave you ever played hide
and seek with your remote
control? Are you tired of tearing
the house apart trying to find if
someone has stuffed the remote
under the couch, put it on the
shelves, or hid it in the desk?
Well, your TV remote can save
you all that looking by automatically signaling its location to
you.

Your TV is
attempting to locate

Here’s how it works:
BEGIN

a lost

Press the POWER button on
the set to turn the TV ON.
Note: Normally you can press
any button on the front of the TV
to turn the set ON. But for the
remote locator to work you need
to be sure to use the Power button at the TV.
A “locating remote” message
shows on the TV screen.
Within a few seconds a
chirping or beeping sound will
begin to come from the remote
control hand unit.
The remote will continue to signal its location for around 30
seconds. Normal TV program
sound will not be heard while the
remote locator is working.
Once you find the remote
just press any button on the
remote and the beeping will stop.

REMOTE LOCATOR “HOMING”
RANGE IS AROUND 30 FEET.

Up to 9 different remote locator
address codes can be set on
which the TV can send out its
“homing” signal.
This is done in case there is more
than one TV (with remote locator) present, and you want only
one specific remote to be signaled when the TV is turned
ON.*
To set a Locator Address Code:

USING THE PIP (PICTURE-IN-PICTURE) FEATURE
Hooking up PIP
Picture-In-Picture (PIP) is the showing of two pictures on the TV screen
at the same time. (One main screen
picture and one small inset picture or PIP). For your ease and convenience this TV has two separate
inputs (ANTenna A and ANTenna B)
for your home’s Antenna and/or
Cable TV system signal.
The ANT A input is primarily for the
TV’ main screen picture. The ANT B
input is provided as a second, dedicated source option for the TV’s PIP
“window” and its feature operations.
The signal connected to the ANT B
input can be either a Split Signal
Input (as described in the section on
this page), or another type of external signal source (such as a satellite
dish system, additional home antenna, video accessory, etc.).
See the following steps on how channels connected to the ANT(enna) B
Input can be shown and used within
the PIP window:
BEGIN

Connect your Antenna or Cable
TV signal to the single 75 ohm
INPUT plug on a two-way Signal
Splitter (not supplied).
Connect two lengths of RF Coaxial
Cable (F-type connectors on both
ends) to the two OUTPUT plugs on
the two-way Signal Splitter.
Connect the twin OUTPUT
plugs on the Signal Splitter to the
ANT A and ANT B Inputs on the
rear of the TV.

TIPS IF SOMETHING ISN'T WORKING

P

lease make these simple
checks before calling for service. These tips can save you
time and money since charges for
TV installation and adjustment of
customer controls are not covered under your warranty.

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.

• Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 10 seconds, then reinsert plug into
outlet and push POWER button again.
• Check that outlet is not on a wall switch. Be sure fuse is not blown on AC Power strip.

• To avoid possible shock hazard be sure the TV is unplugged from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
• When cleaning the TV screen take care not to scratch or damage the screen surface (avoid wearing jewelry or using
anything abrasive). 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. Use a clean
dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.
• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring
of the cabinet finish.

GLOSSARY TO TELEVISION TERMS
Coaxial Cable * A single solid antenna wire normally matched
with a metal plug (F-type) end connector that screws (or pushes)
directly onto a 75 Ohm input found on the Television or VCR.
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 dialogue and conversations while the TV
program is in progress.

Programming * The procedure of adding or deleting channel
numbers into the Television’s memory circuits. In this way the
Television “remembers’’ only the locally available or desired
channel numbers and skips over any unwanted channel numbers.
Remote Sensor Window * A window or opening found on the
Television control panel through which infrared remote control
command signals are received.

Direct Audio/Video Inputs * Located on the rear of the TV
these connectors (RCA phono type plug) are used for the input
of audio and video signals. Designed for use with VCRs (or other
accessories) in order to receive higher picture resolution and
offer sound connection options.

Setup Mode * Automatic feature control settings made by the
TV. Designed for first time set-up and use. Settings for signal
connections (antenna or cable TV), plus channel program memory are held in the TV's memory (even if the set is unplugged
and moved to a new location.)

Identify* Method by which a remote control searches and finds
an operating code for another product (such as a VCR or Cable
Converter). Once the code has been "identified" then the TV
remote can operate and send commands to the other product.

Second Audio Program (SAP) * Another or additional audio
channel provided for in the Multichannel Television Sound
(MTS) broadcast standard. The most frequently proposed use
for SAP is the simultaneous bilingual broadcast of TV program
material.

On Screen Displays (OSD) * Refers to the wording or messages
generated by the television (or VCR) to help the user with specific feature controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).
Menu * An on-screen listing of feature controls shown on the
Television screen that are made available for user adjustments.
Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) * The broadcast standard that allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV
picture.

Status * Allows the user to quickly confirm what channel number is currently being viewed. 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).
Twin Lead Wire * The more commonly used name for the two
strand 300 Ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and outdoor 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 designed into the more recent
Televisions and VCRs.
