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 pre-
cautions 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
be retained for future reference.
3. Heed Warnings - All warnings on the appliance and in the operating
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 sur-
faces 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 built-
in 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 (includ-
ing amplifiers) that produce heat.
10. Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to a power sup-
ply 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 pro-
vide 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 anten-
na discharge unit, size of grounding connectors, location of antenna-
discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and require-
ments 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 servic-
ing 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 pro-
vides 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.

USING THE SMART LOCK (SETUP CODE) CONTROL
Parents - it isn’t possible for your child to
unblock a channel without knowing your
access code or changing it to a new one. If
your code changes, and you didn’t change it,
then you know it’s been altered by someone
else and block channel have been viewed.
Smart Lock allows parents to
block out, or “censor” any
channels they think children should
not watch. A channel blocked by
the Smart Lock control cannot be
viewed until a correct access code
is used to unlock the channel for
viewing. First let’s set your Smart

©© button and the menu will
shift to the left, then CURSOR

to highlight the SMART
LOCK control.
Press the CURSOR RIGHT
©© button again to shift the dis-
play left, then CURSOR DOWN
to highlight SETUP CODE.
Press the CURSOR RIGHT
©© button. “---- Enter current
access code” will appear within the
menu.
Press 0, 7, 1, 1 on the remote.
“XXXX” shows on the SETUP
CODE display as you press the
NUMBER buttons. “XXXX Code
correct” will appear.
“Next enter your new access
code” shows on the screen. Press

HOW TO SET THE TV FOR STEREO PROGRAMS
Your TV can receive broadcast
stereo TV programs. The TV
has both an amplifier and twin
speakers through which the stereo
sound can be heard.
Press the MENU button on
the remote to show the on-screen
menu. PICTURE will be high-
lighted.
Press the CURSOR DOWN
button to select the SOUND
menu.
Press the CURSOR RIGHT
©© button and the menu will
shift to the right to display an
adjustment bar in front of the
TREBLE control.
Press the CURSOR DOWN
button to select the STEREO
control.
Use the CURSOR LEFT §§
or RIGHT ©© buttons to select
STEREO or MONO. With
STEREO selected the television
will reproduce any stereo broad-
cast signal it receives.
SAP is an additional part of the
stereo broadcast system. Sent as a
third audio channel SAP can be
heard apart from the current TV
program sound. TV stations are
free to use SAP for any number
of purposes, but many experts
believe it will be used for foreign
language translations of TV
shows (or for weather and news
bulletins.)
If a SAP signal is not present
with a selected program, the SAP
option cannot be selected. Also, if
SAP is selected on a channel
(with SAP) and you select anoth-
er channel, when you return to
the original channel SAP will be
OFF (and you will have to rese-
lect the SAP feature.)

Your TV is
attempting to locate
a lost
remote control
Have 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 automati-
cally signaling its location to
you.
Here’s how it works:
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 but-
ton 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 sig-
nal 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.
The remote is now ready for nor-
mal TV feature use.
SMART HELP
Remember, the remote
locator may not properly
receive its “homing” signal from
the TV if it has been placed on a
metal shelf or counter material.

ON HOW TO USE THE LOCATOR CODE
BUTTON FOR PROGRAMMING.
* For owners who live in apartment (town-
house or condominium) complex, this task
may be necessary since the remote locator’s
signal can be sent and detected directly
through adjoining walls.
For most homes this step would
not be needed but for your infor-
mation:
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 loca-
tor) present, and you want only
one specific remote to be sig-
naled when the TV is turned
ON.*
To set a Locator Address Code:
With the TV turned ON, press
the LOCATOR CODE button
on the remote. (Also be sure the
TV/VCR/ACC SYSTEM switch
is in the TV mode.)
The TV shows the present
Remote Locator Code.
Press any number button
(0-9) on the remote to set or
change the Locator Code.
SMART HELP
Remember, if the batteries
are replaced the Locator
Code will need to be reentered.
When setting the Locator Code if
any button, other than the number
buttons are pressed, the remote
will return to its normal operation

USING THE PIP (PICTURE-IN-PICTURE) FEATURE
Picture-In-Picture (PIP) is the show-
ing 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 conve-
nience 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, dedi-
cated 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 exter-
nal signal source (such as a satellite
dish system, additional home anten-
na, video accessory, etc.).
See the following steps on how chan-
nels connected to the ANT(enna) B
Input can be shown and used within
the PIP window:
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.
SMART HELP
For other possible PIP
connections see pages 41-42
for the “More PIP Connections”
section.

nections, contact your dealer, or our

Press the AV button on the remote to make sure the correct signal source is selected.
(AV 1, AV 2, SVID-R or MM 1, MM 2, MM 3)
Check TV/VCR/ACC “System” switch on the remote. Move the switch to the TV
position to operate the television.
Check batteries. Replace with AA Heavy Duty (Zinc Chloride) or Alkaline batteries
if necessary.
Clean the remote and the remote sensor window on the TV.
Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 10 seconds, then reinsert plug into
outlet and push POWER button again. Be sure fuse is not blown on AC Power strip.
Check to be sure TV outlet is not on a wall switch.
Check the VOLUME buttons.

(If Applicable) Check Audio Receiver for correct operating mode.
Repeat channel selection.
Add desired channel numbers (CHANNEL control) into TV memory.
Check to be sure the TUNER control is set to the CABLE option.
Please make these simple
checks before calling for ser-
vice. These tips can save you
time and money since charges for
TV installation and adjustment of

ered under your warranty.
Cleaning and Care
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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
On Screen Displays (OSD) * Refers to the wording or messages
generated by the television (or VCR) to help the user with specif-
ic 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 stan-
dard that allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV
picture.
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 num-
bers.
Remote Sensor Window * A window or opening found on the
Television control panel through which infrared remote control
command signals are received.
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 mem-
ory are held in the TV's memory (even if the set is unplugged
and moved to a new location.)
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.
Status * Allows the user to quickly confirm what channel num-
ber 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 disap-
pear from the screen).
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 designed into the more recent
Televisions and VCRs.
