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.

FOLLOW THE ON SCREEN DIRECTIONS TO VIEW OPERATING TIPS
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.
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 his Television feature controls. See On Screen Displays
(OSD).
Programming * The procedure of adding or deleting channel numbers into the Television's memory circuits. In this way the Television
"remembers" only the locally available or desired channel numbers
and skips over any unwanted channel numbers.
Direct Audio/Video Inputs * Located on the rear of the TV the_ connectors (RCA phone 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.
Remote Sensor Window * A window or opening found on the
Television control panel through which infrared remote control command signals are received.
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.
Second Audio Program (SAP) * Another or additional audio channel provided for in the Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) broadcast standard. The most frequently proposed use for SAP is the
simultaneous bilingual broadcast of TV program material.
Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) * The broadcast standard that
allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV picture.
Status * Allows the user to quickly confirm what channel number is
currently being viewed. Status can also be used to clear the
Television of on screen displays or information (rather than waiting
for the displays to "time out" or automatically disappear from the
screen).
On Screen Displays (OSD) * Refers to the wording or messages generated by the television (or VCR) to help the user with specific feature
controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).
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.
Menu * An on-screen listing of feature controls shown on the
Television screen that are made available for user adjustments.
