How TO USE THE PICTURE-IN-PICTURE (PIP) FEATURE
} 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.).

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

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 the MAG4600 Projection TV Screen Cleaning Kit or
call our toll-free Accessory Parts ordering number 1-800-292-6066.
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.
