CHILD SAFETY

It makes a difference how and where you use your flat panel display

As you enjoy your new product, keep these safety tips in mind

The issue

The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend, and larger TVs are popular purchases. However, TVs are not always supported on the proper stands or installed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. We and the consumer electronics industry are committed to making home entertainment enjoyable and safe.

TVs that are inappropriately placed on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers, chests, or carts may fall over and cause injury.

Tune into safety

•

•

•

•

•

• One size of TV stand does

not

fit all. Use only a TV stand rated for the weight of your TV.

Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for proper use of this product.

Don’t let children climb on or play with entertainment system furniture and TVs.

Don’t place TVs on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers.

Remember that children can become excited while watching a program, especially on a “larger-than-life” TV.

Make sure that you place or install the TV where it cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.

Make sure that you route all cords and cables so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children.

Wall mounting

•

•

•

•

•

If you decide to wall mount your TV, always remember:

One size of wall mount does

not

fit all. Use only a wall mount rated for the weight of your TV and that has been recommended by this TV manufacturer, listed in this manual, or otherwise listed by an independent laboratory as suitable for your TV.

Follow all instructions supplied by the TV and wall mount manufacturers.

If you have any doubts about your ability to safely wall mount your TV, get help from a professional installer.

Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the TV is appropriate. Some wall mounts are not designed to be mounted to walls backed with steel studs or cinder blocks. If you are unsure, ask a professional installer.

TVs can be heavy. At least two people are required for safe wall mount installation.

Important safety instructions

CAUTION

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT OPEN

This symbol indicates that dangerous voltage constituting a risk of electric shock is present within your TV. This label is located on the back of your TV.

This symbol indicates that there are important operating and maintenance instructions in the literature accompanying your TV.

1 Read these instructions.

2 Keep these instructions.

3 Heed all warnings.

4 Follow all instructions.

5 Do not use this apparatus near water.

6 Clean only with dry cloth.

7 Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

8 Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

9 Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10 Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

11 Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

12 Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the S3125A cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

13 Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

14 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

15 The mains plug is the disconnecting device. The plug must remain readily operable.

16 The apparatus with grounding-type plug is a class I apparatus. Class I apparatus need to be connected to earth ground wire to prevent possible electric shock. Make sure that you connect the class I apparatus to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.

17 Remote control batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire, or the like.

18 The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing, and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.

Warnings

Electric shock hazard

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not remove any cover or expose the device to rain or moisture. No user-serviceable parts are inside. Refer servicing to qualified service technicians.

Lightning

For added protection for your device receiver during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the power outlet and disconnect any antenna or cable system. This helps prevent property damage and personal injury from lightning and power line surges.

Power lines

An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

Handling the LCD panel

• Your TV’s screen is made of glass. Do not drop your TV or hit, jolt, or press hard against the LCD panel. If the screen breaks, be careful of broken glass.

• If the LCD panel is broken, make absolutely sure that you do not touch the liquid in the panel. This may cause skin inflammation.

• If the liquid gets in your mouth, immediately gargle, rinse, and consult with your doctor. Also, if the liquid gets in your eyes or touches your skin, consult with your doctor after rinsing for at least

15 minutes or longer in clean water.

Replacement parts

When replacement parts are required, make sure that the service technician uses replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, personal injury, or other hazards.

Safety check

After completing any service or repair to this device, ask the service technician to perform routine safety checks to determine that your TV is in correct operating condition.


Power source

Operate your TV only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult an electrician or your local power company.

Cautions

Damage requiring service

Unplug this TV from the power outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

• When the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed.

• If liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into your TV.

• If your TV has been exposed to rain or water.

• If your TV does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions because incorrect adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore your TV to its normal operation.

• If your TV has been dropped or damaged in any way.

• When your TV exhibits a distinct change in performance.

Outdoor antenna grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to your TV, make sure that the antenna or cable system is grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.

Article 810 of the National Electrical Code,

ANSI/NFPA No. 70, provides information with respect to correct grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of the antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

Note to CATV system installer

Article 820 of the National Electrical Code,

ANSI/NFPA No. 40 provides guidance for correct grounding. Specifically, it states that the cable ground must be connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

Condensation

Moisture will form on the TV if the TV is brought from cool surroundings into a warm room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, the TV's performance may be impaired. To prevent this, let the TV stand in its new surroundings for about an hour before switching it on, or make sure that the room temperature rises gradually.

Condensation may also form during the summer if the TV is exposed to the breeze from an air conditioner. In such cases, change the location of the TV.

Mobile telephone warning

To avoid interference with your TV picture and sound, operating problems, or even damage, keep your cordless and cellular telephones away from the TV.

End of life directives

Your TV contains tin-lead solder and a fluorescent lamp containing a small amount of mercury.

Disposal of these materials may be regulated for environmental reasons. Your TV also contains material that can be recycled and reused. For disposal or recycling information, contact your local authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance at www.eia.org to find a recycler in your area.

Non-active pixels

The LCD panel contains almost 3 million thin film transistors, which provide exceptionally sharp video quality. Occasionally, a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed blue, green, or red point. These non-active pixels do not adversely affect the performance of your TV, and are not considered defects.

Using the remote control

Installing the remote control batteries

To install the remote control batteries:

1 Remove the battery cover.

2 Insert two AAA batteries into the battery compartment. Make sure that you match the + and – symbols on the batteries with the + and – symbols in the battery compartment.

3 Replace the battery cover.

Cautions

• Batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat, such as sunshine, heat registers, or fire.

• Battery chemicals can cause a rash. If the batteries leak, clean the battery compartment with a cloth. If chemicals touch your skin, wash immediately.

• Make sure that batteries are disposed of correctly. Do not burn or incinerate.

Notes

• Do not mix batteries of different types.

• Do not mix old and new batteries.

• Remove batteries when the charge is depleted.

• If the remote control is not going to be used for an extended period of time, remove the batteries.


Aiming the remote control

To aim the remote control:

• Point the remote control towards the remote sensor on the front of your TV.

Notes

• Do not expose the remote control to shock or liquids.

• Do not use the remote control in an area with high humidity.

• Do not place the remote control in direct sunlight.

• Do not place objects, such as furniture, between the remote control and the remote sensor.

• The remote control may not work if direct sunlight or bright light shines on the remote sensor. Either move your TV or change the angle at which you use the remote control.

Using the remote control holder

Your TV comes with a remote control holder you can put the remote control in when you are not using it. You can put the holder on a table or mount it on a wall.

Programming a universal remote control to work with your TV

You can operate your Insignia TV with a new or existing universal remote control.

To program a universal remote control:

1 Find the code for your universal remote control by identifying its model (or your set-top box’s remote control manufacturer and model) on the charts below, then making note of the numbered code below it. You will use the numbered code to program your remote control to work with your Insignia TV.

Screws

Tape

Tips

• Different types of walls may require different types of screws. If you want to wall mount the remote control holder, make sure that you use the correct screws for the type of wall. (Screws are not provided.)

• The remote control holder is shipped with separate adhesive tape for wall mounting. This tape may not work with all types of walls. Make sure that you use the correct tape for the type of wall.

Codes for other remote controls are available online at: www.insigniaproducts.com/universalcontrolcodes.aspx

Tips

• The brand name is often visible on the front of the universal remote control, and the model number is often visible on the back.

• If your universal remote control isn’t listed on the chart, refer to your universal remote control’s instructions and try codes for the brands Orion, Emerson, Memorex, Sansui,

Sylvania, or Zenith. You may need to try several codes before finding a match.

2 Follow your universal remote control’s instructions to enter the TV code you found in

Step 1.

Tips

• If your universal remote control has a code search feature, run a code search to identify a code that matches your TV. See your universal remote control’s instructions for details.

• If your universal remote control has a “Learn” feature, you can manually program it using the

Insignia TV remote to “teach” the commands one at a time. See your universal remote control’s instructions for details.

3 If all else fails, you must use a different universal remote control that can operate both your set-top box and your TV. Four such remotes are listed on the chart, but many other compatible models are available in the market.

For more help, call technical support for your universal remote control or set-top box manufacturer, or call the Insignia Customer Care

Center at 1-877-467-4289.

Setting or changing the password

Your TV has a V-chip that lets you control the type of programs your children can watch. Parental controls include two ratings: MPAA (based on age) and TV Parental Guidelines (based on content and age). A TV program may have an MPAA or TV

Parental Guidelines rating, so you should set controls for both ratings.

Before you can select ratings, you need to set up a parental controls password.

Maintaining

• Do not use your TV in areas that are too hot or too cold, because the cabinet may warp or the screen may malfunction. Your TV works best in temperatures that are comfortable to you.

• Storage temperatures are 32° to 122°F (0° to 50°C).

• Working temperatures are 41° to 104°F (5° to

40°C).

• Do not place your TV in direct sunlight or near a heat source.

Cleaning the TV cabinet

Clean the cabinet with a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use the cleaning cloth that came with your TV to clean the cabinet. If the cabinet is especially dirty, moisten a soft, lint-free cloth in a weak detergent solution, squeeze the excess moisture from the cloth, then wipe the screen or cabinet with the cloth. Use a clean cloth to dry the screen or cabinet.

Cleaning the TV screen

Clean the screen with the cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use the cleaning cloth to clean other parts of your TV.

Troubleshooting

Warning

Do not try to repair your TV yourself. Refer all service to a qualified service technician.

Problem

No power

No picture

Good picture but no sound

Good sound but poor color

Poor picture

Horizontal dotted line

“Ghost” or double image

Remote control does not work

Snowy picture or noise

VGA picture is not stable or synchronized

Solution

• Make sure that the power cord is correctly connected to your TV and a power outlet.

• Unplug the power cord, wait 60 seconds, then plug the cord back in and turn on your TV.

• Make sure that Audio Only option is set to Off . For more information,

see “Playing TV audio only” on page 18.

• Make sure that the video cables are connected securely to the back of your TV.

• Adjust the contrast and brightness.

• Make sure that the correct video mode is selected.

• Make sure that the incoming signal is compatible.

• Make sure the antenna is connected correctly.

• Check the closed caption settings.

Some TEXT modes can block the screen.

• Increase the volume.

• Make sure that the sound is not muted.

• Make sure that the correct audio mode is selected.

• Adjust the contrast, color, and brightness settings.

• Make sure that the room is not too bright. Light reflecting off the screen can make the picture difficult to see.

• If an S-VHS camera or a camcorder is connected while another connected device is turned on, the picture may be poor. Turn off one or more devices.

• Your TV may be too close to another electrical device, such as a hair dryer or neon light. Turn off the device or move your TV.

• This may be caused by obstructions to the antenna, such as high-rise buildings or hills. Use of a highly directional antenna may improve the picture quality.

• Replace the batteries. Make sure that the + and – symbols on the batteries align with the + and – symbols in the battery compartment.

• Clean the remote sensor on the front of your TV.

• Bright or fluorescent lighting may interfere with the remote control signal. Turn off the light or move your TV.

• Make sure that the A/V and antenna cables are connected correctly and securely.

• Make sure that you have selected the correct VGA mode on your computer.


Problem

No output from one of the speakers

Control buttons do not work

After images appear

Picture has a few bright or dark dots

Solution

• Adjust the balance in the Audio menu.

• Make sure that the Button Lock option is set to Off. For more

information, see “Locking control buttons” on page 26.

• Unplug the power cord, wait a few seconds, then plug the cord back in and turn on your TV.

• Do not display a still image, such as a logo, game, or computer image, for an extended period of time. This can cause a permanent after-image to be burned into the screen. This type of damage is not covered by your warranty.

• A few bright or dark dots on an LCD screen is normal. It does not affect the operation of this TV.
