Antennas

To enjoy a clearer picture, use an outdoor antenna. The following is a brief explanation of the types of connections that are used for a coaxial cable. If your outdoor antenna uses a 75-ohm coaxial cable with an F-type connector, plug it into the antenna terminal at the rear of the AVC System.

NOTE

• The antenna and the cable converter cannot be connected at the same time.

F-type connector

1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type connector that can easily be attached to a terminal without tools (not supplied).

75-ohm coaxial cable (round)

2. A 300-ohm system is a flat “twin-lead” cable that can be attached to a 75-ohm terminal through a 300/75-ohm adapter (not supplied).

300-ohm twin-lead cable (flat)

Cable converter/VCR connection

• Be sure to connect the antenna or the cable converter as follows. Signal reception may fail if improperly connected.

• Be sure to remember what kind of connection is made with your System.

• The connection type will determine whether to select “Air” or “Cable” for both ANT-A and B when configuring “Air/Cable” settings.

Watching TV

Setting MTS/SAP stereo mode

The System has a feature that allows reception of sound other than the main audio for the program. This feature is called Multi-channel Television Sound (MTS).

The System with MTS can receive mono sound, stereo sound and Secondary Audio Programs (SAP). The SAP feature allows a TV station to broadcast other information, which could be audio in another language or something completely different like weather information.

You can enjoy Hi-Fi stereo sound or SAP broadcasts where available.

• Stereo broadcasts

View programs like live sporting events, shows and concerts in dynamic stereo sound.

• SAP broadcasts

Receive TV broadcasts in either MAIN or SAP sound.

MAIN sound: The normal program soundtrack (either in mono or stereo).

SAP sound: Listen to second language, supplementary commentary and other information. (SAP is mono sound.)

If stereo sound is difficult to hear.

• Obtain a clearer sound by manually switching to fixed mono-sound mode.

NOTE

• Once “MONO” mode is selected, the sound remains mono even if the System receives a stereo broadcast. You must switch the mode back to “STEREO” if you want to hear stereo sound again.

• Selecting MTS while in the input mode does not change the type of sound. In this case, sound is determined by the video source.

Closed caption

• Your System is equipped with an internal closed caption decoder. Closed caption is the System which allows you to view conversations, narration, and sound effects in TV programs and home videos as subtitles on your

Display.

• Not all programs and videos offer closed caption. Please look for the “

N” symbol to ensure that captions will be shown.

• “CC1” or “CC2” displays subtitles of TV dramas and news programs while allowing a full view of the picture.

• “T1” or “T2” superimposes on the picture other information (e.g. TV guide, weather) that is independent of the

TV in progress.

Each time you press CC, the closed caption toggles as shown below.

NOTE

• When using Twin Picture (see page 68) and Still Image

(see page 68) functions, the right screen cannot display closed caption data.

Parental control (setting V-CHIP level)

V-CHIP is an electronic filtering device built into your System. This tool gives parents a great degree of control over broadcasts accessed by their children. It allows parents to select programs judged suitable for child viewing while blocking ones judged not suitable. It does so automatically once you activate the V-CHIP feature in your Liquid Crystal Television.

“V-Chip” and “Status” will not be selectable from the menu if you do not first configure your secret

number. (See page 61 for Secret number setting for parental control.)

• The U.S. has two rating systems for viewing content: TV Parental Guidelines and movie ratings.

• The TV Parental Guidelines work in conjunction with the V-CHIP to help parents screen out inappropriate television shows from their children.

• Movie ratings are used for original movies rated by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) as watched on cable TV and not edited for television. The V-CHIP can also be set to block MPAA-rated movies.

Canadian Rating Systems

• The TV rating systems in Canada are based on the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications

Commission (CRTC) policy on violence in television programming.

• While violence is the most important content element to be rated, the structure developed takes into consideration other program content like language, nudity, sexuality and mature themes.

• When setting the V-CHIP on the Canadian system you can choose either the Canadian English ratings or the

Canadian French ratings.

Description

Exempt: Includes news, sports, documentaries and other information programming; talk shows, music videos, and variety programming.

Children: Intended for younger children under the age of 8 years. Pays careful attention to themes that could threaten their sense of security and well-being.

Children over 8 years old: Contains no portrayal of violence as the preferred, acceptable, or only way to resolve conflict; nor encourage children to imitate dangerous acts which they may see on the screen.

General: Considered acceptable for all age groups. Appropriate viewing for the entire family, contains very little violence, physical, verbal or emotional.

Parental Guidance: Intended for a general audience, but may not be suitable for younger children (under the age of 8) because it could contain controversial themes or issues.

Over 14 Years: Could contain themes where violence is one of the dominant elements of the storyline, but it must be integral to the development of plot or character. Language usage could be profane and nudity present within the context of the theme.

Adults: Intended for viewers 18 years and older and might contain depictions of violence, which while related to the development of plot, character or themes, are intended for adult viewing. Could contain graphic language and portrayals of sex and nudity.

Appendix

Troubleshooting

• No power

Problem Possible Solution

• Make sure the Display and the AVC System are connected correctly. (See page

9.)

• Check if you pressed TV POWER on the remote control unit. (See page 21.)

If the indicator on the Display lights up red, press POWER on the Display.

• Is the AC cord disconnected? (See page 20.)

• Has the main power been turned on? (See page 21.)

• Unit cannot be operated.

• External influences such as lightning, static electricity, may cause improper operation. In this case, operate the unit after first turning on the power of the

Display and the AVC System, or unplugging the AC cord and replugging it in after 1 or 2 minutes.

• Remote control unit does not operate.

• Is the Mode switch set correctly? Slide it to the TV setting position.

• Are batteries inserted with polarity (e, f) aligned? (See page 13.)

• Are batteries worn out? (Replace with new batteries.)

• Are you using it under strong or fluorescent lighting?

• Is a fluorescent light illuminated near the remote control sensor?

• Picture is cut off/with sidebar screen.

• Is the image position correct? (See pages 47 and 48.)

• Are screen mode adjustments such as picture size made correctly? (See pages

55 and 56)

• Strange color, light color, or color misalignment

• Adjust the picture tone. (See pages 33 to 37.)

• Is the room too bright? The picture may look dark in a room that is too bright.

• Check the input signal setting. (See page 52.)

• Power is suddenly turned off.

• No picture

• No sound

• Is the sleep timer set? (See page 59.)

• Check the power control settings. (See pages 39 and 40.)

• The unit’s internal temperature has increased.

Remove any objects blocking vent or clean.

• Is connection to other components correct? (See pages 41 to 46.)

• Is correct input signal source selected after connection? (See page 52.)

• Is the correct input selected? (See page 52.)

• Is a non-compatible signal being input? (See page 78.)

• Is picture adjustment correct? (See pages 33 to 37.)

• Is “On” selected in “Audio Only”? (See page 58.)

• Is the volume too low? (See page 24.)

• Is “Variable” selected in “Audio Out”? (See page 58.)

• Is correct speaker output (“External” or “Internal”) selected in “Speaker”? (See pages 49 and 50.)

Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments

• When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, office), the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed. This is not a malfunction, and the unit will recover when the temperature returns to normal.

• Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a heater, as this may cause the cabinet to deform and the Liquid Crystal panel to malfunction.

Storage temperature: –4°F to +140°F (–20°C to +60°C)
