Why You Should Connect This G-LINK Cable
The G-LINKcable enables the GUIDEPlus+system (the on-screen interactive
program guide) to work with your VCRand/or cane box
Cable Box - If your IV is connected to a cable box you must connect the
G-LINK cable to receive IV program listings for your area, and to tune
directly to a channel when the program guide is on your TVscreen.

G-LINK wands

VCR - If your IV is connected to a VCRand you don't connect the G-LINK
cane, one-touch VCR recording won't work The other features of the guide
will work properly.

How to Find the Remote Sensor
You have to place the G-LIN K wands in front of the remote sensor on the VCR and/
or cable box. Some cable boxes and VCRs have the remote sensor labeled on the
unit. If the remote sensor isn't labeled on your VCR andtor cable box, you need to
use the remote control that came with the VCR and/or cable box to locate the
sensor.

1. Turn off the VCR and/or

cable box.

2.

Hold the remote control (not the one that came with your IV, but the one that
came with the cable box andtor VCR to which you're attaching the G-LINK
cable) so that it is touching the front of the component.

3.

Slowly move the remote control across the front of the component (VCR or
cable box) while you press the power button on and off. You must press and
release the power button each time you move the remote (holding down the
button won't work).

Why You Should Use the Auto Tuning Feature
The auto tuning feature tunes the IV to the correct channel for different
components you have connected to your IV (like a VCR or DVD Player]. When you
set up auto tuning in the menu system you don't have to remember to change
your IV to channel 3, for example, when you want to watch the tape in your VCR.
How to Set Up the

Auto

Tuning

Feature

The way you set up the auto tuning feature in the IV's menu corresponds to the
component buttons on the remote and the way you have each component
connected to your IV. When you set up auto tuning, you're telling the IX/what
channel to tune to when you press the VCR or DVD button on the remote control.

Parental Controls and V-Chip
The Parental Controls menu allows you to program your ]V so that children cannot see
certain programs, channels, or use the front panel controls. The first three choices in the
Parental Controls menu involve software inside your I1/(referred to as V-Chip) which
allows you to block TV programs and movies based on violence, sex, or other content
you may believe children should not view. In other words, it lets you program your IV so
it won't display certain programs.
Once you block programs, you or other adults can unbloek programs by entering a
password.
By default, the software inside your IV is turned

water. Never use strong cleaning agents, such as ammonia-based
abrasive powder. These types of cleaners will damage the IV.

While cleaning do not spray liquid directly on the screen, or allow liquid to run down
the screen and inside the IV. Also, never place drinks or vases with water on top of the
IV. This could increase the risk of fire or shock hazard or damage to the IV.
Caution: Using video games or any external accessory with fixed images for extended
periods of time can cause them to be permanently imprinted on the picture tube (or
projection IV picture tubes). AtSO, some network/program
logos, phone numbers, etc.
may cause similar damage. This damage is not covered by your warranty.
