Safety Information

To ensure reliable and safe operation of this equipment, please read carefully all the instructions in this user guide, especially the safety information below.

Electrical safety

• The TV set should only be connected to a main power supply with voltage that matches the label at the rear of the product.

• To prevent overload, do not share the same power supply socket with too many other electronic components.

• Do not place any connecting wires where they may be stepped on or tripped over.

• Do not place heavy items on them, which may damage the leads.

• Hold the main plug, not the wires, when removing from a socket.

• During a thunderstorm or when not in using the television for long periods, turn off the power switch on the back of the television.

• Do not allow water or moisture to enter the TV or power adapter. Do NOT use in wet, moist areas, such as bathrooms, steamy kitchens or near swimming pools.

• Pull the plug out immediately, and seek professional help if the main plug or cable is damaged, liquid is spilt onto the set, if accidentally exposed to water or moisture, if anything accidentally penetrates the ventilation slots or if the set does not work normally.

• Do not remove the safety covers. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Trying to service the unit yourself is dangerous and may invalidate the product’s warranty. Qualified personnel must only service this apparatus.

• To avoid battery leakage, remove exhausted batteries from the remote control, or when not using for a long period.

• Do not break open or throw exhausted batteries on a fire.

Physical safety

• Do not block ventilation slots in the back cover. You may place the TV in a cabinet, but ensure at least 5cm (2”) clearance all around.

• Do not tap or shake the TV screen, or you may damage the internal circuits. Take good care of the remote control.

• To clean the TV use a soft dry cloth. Do not use solvents or petroleum based fluids.

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

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

• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs.

• Unplug the apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods.

• Refer all servicing to a 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, has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

• Please always connect your television to a power outlet with protective ground connection.

Parental Menu Options

Parental Control

Press Enter to enter the sub-menu and then use the 0-9 to enter the correct password: 0,0,0,0. If used, this option feature can

“block” undesirable programming from appearing on the TV. Parental Control offers the user a wide variety of options and settings that restrict or “block” the programming that can appear on the TV. Parental Control allows the user the capability of defining which program rating they consider acceptable, to the younger more sensitive viewer. It can be preset and turned either on or off by the user who specifies the secret 4-number code, the password. The number of hours blocked are specified. General audiences and children blocks should be both programmed into the TV’s memory. Viewer ratings are specified for both TV and the motion picture industry; both rating systems should be used, for complete coverage. The ratings are based on the ages of children.

Overview

To ensure complete coverage for all TV programs, (movies and regular TV shows) choose a rating for MPAA, from the selections below, as well as ratings from the TV Parental Guidelines Rating Systems below, using the Age Block option for General Audiences, and for children. In addition to those, you may wish to add additional restrictions from the content block menu, and submenus examples below.

Things to Consider before Setting up Parental Control

Determine which rating you consider acceptable to the viewer. (For example, if you choose TV-PG, more restrictive ratings will be automatically blocked; the viewer will not be able to see: TV-PG, TV-14, or TV-MA rated programming.) Do you want to block the auxiliary video source entirely? (Blocks the signal sent by the equipment, such as VCR, connected to the TV Audio/Video input jacks)

Or leave unblocked, then choose allowable ratings. Block program “Content” based on individual parameters such as: Strong Dialog,

Bad Language, Sex Scenes, Violence Scenes, or Fantasy. Violent Scenes; in Content Blk option. Select a secret password, in the Set

Password option, using the numbers keys on the remote. Do not forget the password, it is the only way you can access the Parental

Control menu and change rating selections, or turn Parental Control off. Do you want the Parental Control to be active at all times? If not, you can turn it on or off with the Lock On/Off option.

• You can set different Parental Control viewing restrictions for general audiences and for children, both can be active at the same time.

• Simply specifying one content block such as Sex Scenes, will not automatically restrict the programming that appears from the video sources.

• Even if you choose to leave the AUX inputs unblocked, the ratings you specify will automatically restrict the programming that appears from the video sources.

• You can not disable Parental Control by disconnecting the TV from power. Block hours will be automatically reset to the original block time setting specified if power is disconnected.

Maintenance

Early malfunctions can be prevented. Careful and regular cleaning can extend the amount of time you will have with your new TV. Be sure to turn the power off and unplug the power cord before you begin any cleaning.

Cleaning the screen

1. A great tip to dust off your screen. Wet a soft cloth in a mixture of lukewarm water and a little fabric softener or dish washing detergent. Wring the cloth until it’s almost dry, and then use to wipe the screen.

2. Make sure the excess water is off the screen, then let air-dry before you turn on the TV.

Cleaning the Cabinet

To remove dirt or dust, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Please be sure not to use a wet cloth.

Extended Absence

If you expect to leave your TV dormant for a long time (such as a vacation), it is a good idea to unplug the power cord to protect against possible damages from lightning or power surges.
