Overview

To display clear crisp pictures, you must connect your TV correctly and choose the correct display format. It is strongly recommended to connect the cable and antenna input using a 75-ohm coaxial cable to receive optimum picture quality signal. A 300-ohm twin lead cable can be easily affected by radio noise and the like, resulting in signal deterioration. If you use a 300-ohm twin lead cable, keep it as far away as possible from the TV.

The way in which you connect your TV will vary, depending on how your home receives a signal (antenna and satellite; cable and cable box).

Do not use an indoor antenna, which is especially susceptible to radio noise.

Disconnect all power sources before making any connections.

For best results, use this connection if you have an antenna system.

Cleaning and

Maintenance

•

Do not use in hot and cold rooms (locations)

•

When the unit is used in rooms (locations) with low temperature, 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.

•

Storage temperature: 0°C to +50°C

•

Working temperature: 5°C to +40°C

The extended use of fixed image program material can cause a permanent after-image on the screen.

This background image is viewable on normal programs in the form of a stationary fixed image. This type of irreversible screen deterioration can be limited by observing the following steps:

A. Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a reasonable viewing level.

B. Do not display the fixed image for extended periods of time.

C. Turn the power off when not in actual use.

Important Information Regarding Use of Video Games,

Computers, Captions or Other Fixed Image Displays.

Examples of still pictures include logos, video games, computer images, teletext and images displayed in 4:3 mode.

CAUTIONS:

•

The permanent after-image on the screen resulting from fixed image use is not an operating defect and as such is not covered by the warranty.

•

This product is not designed to display fixed images for extended periods of time.

To clean this unit, wipe with a soft, dry cloth.

If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth dipped in a soap and water solution or a weak detergent solution.

Use eyeglass cleaner to remove stubborn dirt from the screen.

•

Never use alcohol, paint thinner or benzine to clean this unit.

•

Before using a chemically treated cloth, read the instructions that came with the cloth carefully.
