ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE MYSELF...
My name is Scott, and I wrote this ProScan
User Manual. You probably weren't expecting a
personal introduction, but then, a ProScan TV
is designed to give you more than you
expectedmand that includes the User Manual.
AN 80-PAGE INSTRUCTION BOOK?
You used to be able to buy aTV, plug it in, stick
arabbit on top of it (or the ears, anyway), and
you were off and running. Watching. Whatever.
Times have changed, though. But don't worry, it
looks more complicated than it is.
YOU'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING
LIKE IT...
rll bet you've never seen anything like thisTV.
Don't believe me? Press the MENU button on
the remote. That's the Main Menu. Times have
definitely changed.
READ THE FIRST FOUR SECTIONS
The first four sections of the manual take you
through all the steps needed to set up theTV.
The remaining chapters and appendices
provide additional information. You can thumb
through these sections whenever you get some
time; if you have a specific question, refer to
the table of contents or the index.
1FIRST THINGS FIRST
STEP 1 :UNPACK THE TV AND
ACCESSORIES
The accessories packed with TV include the Universal Remote, the
Simple Remote, six AAA batteries, an antenna adapter, and an audio/
video.adapter for plugging your camcorder into the front of the TV. Be
sure to locate the Connections Foldout.
Important Information:
Optional Stand for Table Model TVs ONLY
CAUTION: Matching stands were designed to be used with
specific 25-inch and larger table model TVs. All recommended
stands come with hardware to secure your TV to the stand so
that it cannot be easily pulled off, pushed off, or tipped over. Your
television dealer can help you choose an appropriate stand.
If you choose not to use a recommended stand for your TV: Make
sure that the stand or other furniture on which you place the TV is
properly located and of adequate size and strength. This will help
prevent the TV from accidentally being pulled off, pushed off, or
tipped over. Failure to use a proper stand could cause damage to
the -IV and/or personal injury.

STEP 2: CONNECT YOUR TV
If you're only going to connect the TV to your home antenna or cable
box, use the "TV Only" connection shown below. If you're going to
connect the TV to a VCR, laser disc player or other component, skip to
the top of the next page.

TV WITH OTHER COMPONENTS
Use the Connections Foldout to connect your TV to a VCR, satellite
receiver, or laserdisc player. See AppendixA, p. 62 for detailed
information about using each of these connections. After connecting
the T.V,proceed to Step 3, below.
If your components don't match those shown on the Foldout, or if you
prefer a different connection, see your dealer or the specific
component user manuals.
STEP 3: PLUG IN THE TV
Plug the power cord into the wall outlet, matching the wide
blade of the plug with the wide slot in the outlet. Be sure to insert
the plug completely.
STEP 4: INSTALL BATTERIES

A LIVING ROOM IN MY LIVING ROOM?
You access the TV's features through an
on-screen menu system. The first menu in the
system looks like a living room, hence its name:
the Living Room Main Menu. You use the
Living Room Main Menu to get to other menus,
such as the Audio Menu. USING "THE

Lists and Labels control in the Channel Menu, above, is a path button.
You don't need to remember the
names of the types of controls. Once
you've learned how each type works,
you'll be able to use any part of the
menu system.

CONTROL PANELS
Control panels can contain different types of controls, such as numeric
entry, sliders, and checkboxes, that let you adjust the TV. A slider in a

other wires or terminals. Damage to
components could result if the cores
of two wires touch each other.

CREATING A GREENER FUTURE
At Thomson Consumer Electronics we are dedicated to the preservation of our
natural heritage and to a healthy and safe way of life for current and future
generations. This is a global effort which encompasses every THOMSON facility
throughout the world.
We believe that clean air, clean water, a protected earth, and healthy people are not
only practical and desirable goals, but achievable ones as well. Our Corporate
Environmental, Health and Safety Charter acknowledges our commitment to protect
these precious assets and provides a challenging vision and guideline for conducting
our business.
fo_ THOMSON CONSUMER ELECTRONICS
Below are a few examples of Thomson's achievements in our efforts to preserve our natural resources.
TH E EARTH THE AIR TH E WATE R
Thomson reclaims millions of pounds of
hazardous waste annually, diverting it
from landfills.
Thomson treats millions of pounds of
waste water sludge annually and
renders it non-hazardous.
Thomson recycles over 50 million
pounds of non-hazardous material
annually that otherwise would have
been treated as trash, an overall
recovery rate of 50%.
Thomson globally recycles millions of
pounds of broken television picture
tube glass annually through both
internal and external reclaim processes.
Thomson has replaced solvent-based
paints at many locations resulting in an
80% reduction in toxic air emissions for
equivelant material used.
Thomson has eliminated the use of
ozone-depleting substances at television
manufacturing facilities around the
world.
Thomson collects and returns over 1.5
million pounds of glass and furnace dust
to the glass making process annually.
Thomson has launched worldwide
energy savings programs which contrib-
ute to efforts to reduce air emissions
from electrical generating facilities.
Thomson recovers over 2 million
pounds of fine glass particles from
process water each year and recycles
them back into its glass furnaces.
Thomson°s state-of-the-art waste water
treatment plants filter out over 26
million pounds of solids from process
water each year.
Thomson's U.S. glass factory recycles
2,500 gallons of water per minute and
cleans 2.6 million gallons of water
per day.
Thomson is researching new processes
and is developing new manufacturing
equipment and technologies to further
reduce large volume water use.
Thomson has also increased its usage of recycled materials for packaging of our products. For example, in the U.S. and Mexico
our television plants use recycled content in our television cartons and instruction booklets. The inks used for the print on
cartons and instruction booklets are soy based. For a free brochure regarding Thomson's Environmental Health and Safety
Programs, write to T_homson Consumer Electronics' address below, attention Environmental Programs: INH340.
Please do not send any products to the Indianapolis address listed in this manual or on the carton. This will only add delays in
service for your product.
