7.
Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.
8.
Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings; or, placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.
9.
Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.

See Fig. below.
15. Non-use Periods - The power cord of the appliance should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time.
16. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings.
17. Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:
A.
The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or

Remember. Broadcast stations will often use spelling abbreviations, symbols, dropouts and other grammatical shortcuts in order to keep pace with the on-screen action. These type factors vary upon the source of the captioned text material and do not indicate a need for service on the part of the TV.
Closed Caption information will usually appear in black and white (although some broadcasters or networks may occasionally use color to highlight or draw attention to certain areas.)

Parents - it isn't possible to unlock or defeat your
Censor Code without changing to a new code number. So if your
Code number changes, and you didn't change it yourself, then you will know that someone has altered the code and the blanked out channel has been viewed.
NOTE:Your TV left the factory with the Parental Code set to "0000". If you are using your TV and the Parental Control for the first time, and don't want to SETUP a new
Access code number, you can use the "0000" number to block channels - see next page.
The "0711" Parental Code (shown on this page) is given as a default or way to reset the
Code when the current Access number is not known.

CONTENT ADVISORY
A nother new area available to parents for the censoring of program material is through the
TV Guidelines and Movie Ratings system. Program Content Advisory data will soon be contained within the broadcast signals of received
TV programs. When setup by the parent or viewer, the TV can respond to transmitted advisory data by blocking out or denying access to TV shows (based on whether the program meets or exceeds the limitations you select as viewable). The TV program can then only be viewed by entering the correct and current Parental Code
Access number.
The Content Advisory system uses both “Movie Ratings” and a
“Parental Guidelines” form of censoring. Refer to the following page sections for explanations on the different Rating system levels and their uses.

Note: Remember that Content Advisory data or encoded information is not available with all received TV programming (this also includes commercials, and other program spot announcements). Broadcaster’s can decide
not to encode any kind of content advisory ratings with their programming, or they can actually choose to encode
programs to be “unrated.”
The TV Blocking Options allow the viewer to block any program without content advisory data with the use of its
“NO RATING INFORMATION” control. And to block programs that are encoded as “unrated” with its
“UNRATED PROGRAMMING” control option.
Since the reception of Content Advisory data can take a few seconds, you may want to use the “CHANNEL
CHANGE” option to be sure no viewing is allowed during blocked program channel changes. This can eliminate the display of a few seconds of undesirable video on the TV, or receiving scenes from a Ratings blocked channel source.

Remember, a minute or two can seem very long, but the code should be located within two minutes.
Don't let the accessory device scan up more than five channels. The remote may pass up the right code and another two minute search cycle will have to be repeated.
If no channel change happens within two minutes, repeat steps 1-4. Should a channel change still not occur, the remote will not work with the desired unit.
Note: For TV remote’s equipped with a backlight option, the unit may
“blink” or flash as the remote moves through its product code list. Once a product code has been identified and the buttons on the remote are released, the unit will blink twice.

P icture-in-Picture (PIP) is the showing of two pictures on the
TV screen at the same time. (One main screen picture and one small inset picture - or PIP). For your ease and convenience this TV has two separate inputs (ANTenna A and ANTenna B) for your home’s
Antenna and/or Cable TV system signal.
The ANT A input is primarily for the TV’s main screen picture.
The ANT B input is provided as a second, dedicated source option
for the TV’s PIP “window” and its feature operations. The signal connected to the ANT B input can be either a Split Signal Input (as described in the section on this page), or another type of external signal source (such as a satellite dish system, additional home antenna, video accessory, etc.).
See the following steps on how channels connected to the
ANT(enna) B Input can be shown and used within the PIP window:
BEGIN
1
Connect your Antenna or
Cable TV signal to the single 75 ohm INPUT plug on a two-way
Signal Splitter (not supplied).
Connect two lengths of RF
Coaxial Cable (F-type connectors on both ends) to the two OUTPUT plugs on the two-way Signal
Splitter.
2 Connect the twin OUTPUT
plugs on the Signal Splitter to the
ANT A and ANT B Inputs on the rear of the TV.

CAUTION: A video source (such as a video game, Compact Disc Interactive - CDI, or
TV information channel) which shows a constant non-moving pattern on the TV screen, can cause picture tube damage. When your TV is continuously used with such a source the pattern of the non-moving portion of the game (CDI, etc.) could leave an image permanently on the picture tube. When not in use, turn the video source OFF. Regularly alternate the use of such video sources with normal TV viewing.
• Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 1 minute, then reinsert plug into outlet and push POWER button again.
• Check to be sure outlet is not on a wall switch.
• Check antenna connections on the rear of the TV. Are they properly secured to the antenna plug on the TV?
• Check the CABLE TUNING control for correct position.

This TV is equipped with protective circuitry that shuts the TV off in case of moderate power surges. Should this occur turn the
TV back on by pressing the POWER button once or twice, or unplug and then replug the power cord at the AC outlet.
This feature is NOT designed to prevent damage due to high power surges such as those caused by lightning, which is not covered by your warranty.
Cleaning and Care
• To avoid possible shock hazard be sure the TV is unplugged from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
• When cleaning the TV screen take care not to scratch or damage the screen surface (avoid wearing jewelry or using anything abrasive- do not use household cleaners). Wipe the front screen with a clean cloth dampened with water. Use even, easy, vertical strokes when cleaning.
• Specially designed screen cleaning kits are also available which contain anti-static cleaners and cloths designed to get into the ridges of the TV screen. If interested, ask your dealer about an optional Projection TV Screen Cleaning Kit or call our toll-free Accessory Parts ordering number 1-800-851-8885.
• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or sponge dampened in a solution of cool clear water and a mild soap or detergent. Use a clean dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.
• Occasionally vacuum the ventilation holes or slots in the cabinet back.
• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring of the cabinet finish.

Audio/Video Inputs * Located on the rear of the TV these connectors (RCA phono type plug) are used for the input of audio and video signals. Designed for use with VCRs (or other accessories) in order to receive higher picture resolution and offer sound connection options.
Coaxial Cable * A single solid antenna wire normally matched with a metal plug (F-type) end connector that screws (or pushes) directly onto a 75 Ohm input found on the Television or VCR.
Display * An on screen message or graphics that help the user operate and adjust TV feature controls. See On Screen Displays
(OSD).
Identify* Method by which a remote control searches and finds an operating code for another product (such as a VCR or Cable
Converter). Once the code has been "identified" then the TV remote can operate and send commands to the other product.
LED * Light Emitting Diode or indicator.
Menu * An on-screen listing of feature controls shown on the TV screen that are made available for user adjustments.
Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) * The broadcast standard that allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV picture.
On Screen Displays (OSD) * Refers to the wording or messages generated by the TV to help the user with specific feature controls
(color adjustment, programming, etc.).
Picture -In-Picture (PIP) * Term used when two pictures are shown on the TV screen at the same time. The smaller PIP picture is supplied by a VCR (or other tuner/video playback source). The
PIP picture can also be moved and swapped with the TV's main screen picture.
Pre-Amplifier * The control center of a hi-fi system. Not only amplifies source inputs, but also allows for source selection, volume, tone, balance and all other controls that affect the sound.
Programming * The procedure of adding or deleting channel numbers into the TV’s memory circuits. In this way the TV
“remembers’’ only the locally available or desired channel numbers and skips over any unwanted channel numbers.
PTV * Projection Television (Rear and/or Front projection design systems are available.)
Remote Sensor Window * A window or opening found on the TV control panel through which infrared remote control command signals are received.
RF * Radio Frequency or modulated signal design used as the carrier for television broadcasts.
Second Audio Program (SAP) * Another or additional audio channel provided for in the Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) broadcast standard. A monaural soundtrack included within the recorded or video signal (usually containing a second language translation for the displayed programming.)
Status * Allows the user to quickly confirm what channel number is currently being viewed. Status can also be used to clear the TV of on-screen displays or information (rather than waiting for the displays to “time out” or automatically disappear from the screen).
Subwoofer * A speaker designed for audio playback of only the lowest-frequency notes (under 100 Hz.)
S-Video Input * Allows direct connection of high-resolution video sources, such as a Super VHS videocassette recorder, Laser Disc player, etc. Provides improved picture resolution, sharpness, and clarity.
Twin Lead Wire * The more commonly used name for the two strand 300 Ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and outdoor antenna systems. In many cases this type of antenna wire requires an additional adapter (or balun) in order to connect to the 75 Ohm
Input terminals designed into the more recent Televisions and
VCRs.
Variable Audio Output * An adjustable audio output which allows for volume variations at the source.
