INTRODUCTION

WELCOME

Welcome into the family of Zenith Color Television owners.

This guide provides instructions on how to operate your new

TV. It is supplemented by a booklet containing Safety Tips.

We urge you to read these publications carefully so that you

will receive full enjoyment from your new Zenith TV for

many years to come.

Your new Zenith projection TV has been designed and built to

give you the very best in quality, features and performance.

There are many regional Zenith distributors and thousands of

distributor-approved Zenith service centers throughout the

U.S., Canada and Mexico who can attend promptly and effec-

tively to ordinary service needs.

Ifyou should have an unusual performance or service problem

that cannot be satisfactorily resolved by your distributor-

approved Zenith service center, contact the regional Zenith dis-

tributor in your area, or write:

Zenith Electronics Corporation

Customer Service Department

1900 N. Austin Avenue

Chicago, Illinois 60639-5079

Telephone: (3 t2) 745-5152

Mon-Fri, 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Central Time

Send the model number, serial number, and date of purchase

or original installation, with a full explanation of the problem

and the service history. We will welcome the opportunity to

look into your specific question or problem and to be of assis-

tance in resolving it promptly.

The model and serial numbers of your new TV are located on the

back of the TV cabinet. For your future convenience and protec-

tion, we suggest that you record these numbers here:

Model No.

Serial No.

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

Before you install your TV...

Ventilation -- Proper ventilation keeps your TV

running cool. Air circulates through perforations

in the back and bottom of the cabinet. Do not

block these vents or you will shorten the life of

your TV.

Power Source -- Your TV is designed to operate

on nonnal household current, 120 volt 60 Hertz

AC. Do not attempt to operate it on DC current.

Power Cord -- Your power cord has a polarized

plug as required by Underwriters' Laboratories. It

has one regular blade and one wide blade and fits

only one way into a standard electrical outlet. If

the blades will not enter either way, your outlet is

very old and non-

standard. A new outlet should be installed by a

qualified electrician.

Safe Operation -- Your TV is manufactured and

tested with your safety in mind. However, unusual

stress caused by dropping or mishandling, expo-

sure to flood, fire, rain or moisture, or accidental

spilling of liquids into the TV, can result in poten-

tial electrical shock or fire hazards, if this hap-

pens, have your TV checked by a service

technician before using it again.

Please read and observe each safety point in tile "SaleD

Tips" folder when installing and using your TV.

FIXED PATTERN DISPLAY CAUTION -- If you use

your TV for video games, teletext or other fixed displays,

avoid setting the BRIGHTNESS control for an excessively

bright picture. A bright, fixed pattern, if used for long periods

of time, can result in a permanent imprint on the TV picture

tube. You can reduce this possibility by alternating the use of

the fixed pattem display with normal TV picture viewing, by

turning down the CONTRAST control for sustained fixed pat-

tern use, and by turning offthe fixed pattern display when not

in use.

PICTURE SCREEN CLEANING m Use asoft cloth mois-

tened with warm water and rub lightly in the soiled areas of

the screen. DO NOT USE A TISSUE OR PAPER TOWEL,

AS THESE MAY DAMAGE SURFACE. Wipe only in the

vertical (up/down) direction (along the grooves). If there is a

dirt buildup, a mild solution of warm water and Ivory dish-

washing detergent may be used. Use dry soft cloth to dry the

screen. Care should be taken to avoid scratches or damage to

the screen surface.

NOTE -- The TV screen is easily damaged. Avoid acciden-

tal contact with the screen.

Some controls on the remote, like PLAY and VOLUME will

always operate the VCR or the TV. Whether other keys

operate the TV or the VCR depends on the mode of the

remote control. For example, OFF-ON will turn the VCR ON

and OFF while the remote control is in the VCR mode. It will

turn the TV ON or OFF while the remote control is in the TV

mode.

activate those functions even though there is a control button

on the remote. For example, pressing TIMER provides direct

access to the Sleep Timer on many TVs. If your TV does not

have a Sleep Timer, pressing TIMER has no effect.

PREPARATION FOR USE

Batteries are provided with this remote, but you must install

them before using the remote.

INSTALLING BATTERI ES

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING

CARING FOR YOUR PROJECTION TV

Your projection TV will look better, have a longer life and per-

form better if you care for it properly.

First check to see that the TV is off. For added

safety, disconnect AC power to your TV.

NOTE: If you disconnect AC power to your TV

for an extended time period, you will have to reset

the clock.

Picture Screen Cleaning

Use asoft cloth moistened with warm water and rub lightly ill

the soiled areas of the screen. DO NOT USE A TISSUE OR

PAPER TOWEL, AS THESE MAY DAMAGE SURFACE.

Wipe only in the vertical (up/down) direction (along the

grooves). If there is a dirt buildup, a mild solution of warm

water and Ivory dishwashing detergent may be used. Use dry

soft cloth to dry the screen. Care should be taken to avoid

scratches or damage to the screen surface.

NOTE -- The TV screen is easily damaged. Avoid acciden-

tal contact with the screen.

EXTENDED ABSENCE

Before an extended absence (such as a vacation) you may

want to disconnect AC power to your TV. This will protect

the projection TV from possible damage from lightning or

power line surges. If you have an outdoor antenna, you may

also want to disconnect the antenna from the wall plate con-

nection center

NOTE: If you disconnect AC power to your TV for an ex-

tended time period, you will have to reset the clock.

PICTURE INTERFERENCE

Your picture may be affected by interference caused by one or

a number of factors. These include:

Nearby Automobile Ignition, Electrical Appliances, etc.

Which causes a speckled, streaked picture. This is most notice-

able in weak signal areas.

Snow in Picture Caused by insufficient signal. Usually

caused by the TV being located too far from the TV station or

by an improper antenna installation.

Ghosts or Reflections Caused by signals being retlected

from surrounding buildings, water tanks, or other high struc-

tures.

Radio Signal Police, amateur or CB radio transmitters may

cause interference.

These interference problems can often be corrected through

the use of a better antenna, signal amplifiers, or various filter

devices. See your TV dealer for additional information, and ac-

cessories available for your projection TV.

YOUR ZENITH WARRANTY

Consumer Protection Plan for Zenith Projection TV

Welcome into the Zenith family! We believe that you will be

pleased with your new Zenith Projection TV. Please read this

Consumer Protection Plan carefully. It is a "ONE YEAR

FULL WARRANTY," plus alimited second year picture tube

warranty, as defined under federal law. This warranty gives

you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights

that vary from state to state within the U.S.A.

Zenith's Responsibility

Service Labor and Parts -- During a period of one year

from effective warranty date, Zenith will supply new or re-

manufactured replacement picture tubes or other parts, and

will pay for service labor by a Zenith distributor or

distributor-approved Zenith service center, when such parts or

service labor are needed to repair the product as a result of

manufacturing defects. Further, Zenith will supply a new or re-

manufactured replacement for any picture tube which fails dur-

ing the second year after effective warranty date because of a

manufacturing defect. Replacement parts are warranted for the

remaining portion of the original warranty period. The above

service labor warranty applies only in the U.S.A.

On-Site Service -- Warranty service is provided when the

Projection TV is installed.

Not Covered -- This warranty covers manufacturing defects

and does not cover installation, adjustment of customer con-

trols in the home, installation or repair of home antenna sys-

tems, cable converters or cable company-supplied equipment;

it also does not cover damage due to misuse, abuse, negli-

gence, acts of God or other causes beyond the control of

Zenith. Any alteration of the product after manufacture voids

this warranty in its entirety.

Owner's Responsibility

Effective Warranty Date -- Warranty begins on thc date of

original consumer installation. For your convenience, keep the

dealers dated bill of sale or delivery ticket as evidence of the

purchase date.

Operating Guide -- Read your Operating Guide carefully so

that you will understand the operation of your set and how to

adjust the customer controls.

Antenna -- Reception problems caused by inadequate home

antennas or faulty antenna connections are the owner's respon-

sibility.

Important: Product Registration -- Please fill out and mail

your Owner Registration Card. It is imperative that Zenith

know how to reach you promptly if we should discover a

safety problem that could affect you.

Warranty Service -- For warranty service information, con-

tact your Zenith dealer preferably, or any distributor-

approved Zenith service center. Parts and service labor that are

Zenith's responsibility (see above) will be provided without

charge. Other service is at the owner's expense. If you have

any problem in obtaining satisfactory warranty service, write:
