This TV has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a Cable TV converter box. Some

Cable TV companies offer "premium pay channels" in which the signal is scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal viewing requires the use of a descrambler device which is generally provided by the cable company.

FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO BASIC

CABLE

TV SERVICE

For basic cable tv service not requiring a converter/descrambler box, connect the CATV 75 ohm coaxial cable to the VHF/UHF jack on the rear of the TV.

FOR SUBSCRIBERS TO SCRAMBLED CABLE TV SERVICE

OR SATELLITE

If you subscribe to a satellite service or a cable TV service which requires the use of a converter/descrambler box, connect the incoming 75 ohm coaxial cable to the converter/descrambter or satellite box. Using another 75 ohm cable, connect the output of the converter/descrambler or satellite box to the antenna jack on the TV. Follow the connections shown below. Set the TVNCR to the output channel of the converter/descrambler or satellite box (usually 3 or 4) and use the converter/descrambler or satellite box to select channels.

If you subscribe to a satellite service or a cable TV service in which basic channels are unscrambled and premium channels require the use of a converter/descrambler box, you may wish to use a signal splitter and an A/B switch Pox (available from the cable company or an electronic supply store). Follow the connections shown below. With the switch in the "B" position, you can directly tune any nonscrambted channels on your TV. With the switch in the "A" position, tune your TV to the output of the converter/descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the converter/descrambler box to tune scrambled channels.

WHAT IS CLOSED CAPTIONING?

This television has the capability to decode and display

Closed Captioned television programs.

Closed Captioning will display text on the screen for hearing impaired viewers or it will translate and display text in another language.

CLOSED CAPTIONING

WITH A VCR

Closed Captioned programs can be recorded and played back on a VCR with the Closed Captioned text intact. The

Closed Captioned text will disappear during Cue (Fast

Forward Search), Review (Rewind Search) and Pause modes or if the VCR tracking is not adjusted properly.

Select one of the four CC (Captions) or four TEXT (Full screen text) or OFF as follows:

CAPTIONS (OO1-4): This Closed Caption Mode will display text on the screen in English or another language.

Generally, Closed Captions in English are transmitted on

Captions 1 and Closed Captions in other languages are transmitted on Captions 2.

TEXT (TT1-4): The Text Closed Caption Mode will usually fill the screen with a programming schedule or other information.

OFF: Turns closed captions off.

After selecting a Closed Caption Mode, it will stay in effect until it is changed, even if the channel is changed.

If the

Captions signal is lost due to a commercial or a break in the signal, the Captions will reappear when the signal is received again.

If the channels are changed, the Captions will be delayed approximately 10 seconds.

The Captions will appear in places on the screen where they wilt least interfere with the picture, usually on the bottom of the screen.

News programs will usually show three-line

Closed Captions which scroll onto the screen.

Most other shows provide two or three lined Captions placed near the character who is speaking so the viewer can follow the dialogue.

Words in italics or underlined describe titles, words in foreign languages or words requiring emphasis. Words that are sung usually appear enclosed by musical notes.

For television programs broadcasting with Closed Captions, look in your TV guide for the Closed Captions symbol (CC).

NOTES:

When selecting Closed Captions, the captioning will be delayed approximately 10 seconds.

Misspellings or unusual characters may occasionally appear during Closed Captioning.

This is normal with Closed

Captioning, especially with live programs.

This is because during live programs, captions are also entered live. These transmissions do not allow time for editing.

When Captions are being displayed, on-screen displays, such as volume and mute may not be seen or may interfere with

Closed Captions.

Some cable systems and copy protection systems may interfere with the Closed Caption signal.

If using an indoor antenna or if TV reception is very poor, the Closed Caption decoder may not appear or may appear with strange characters or misspelled words. In this case, adjust the antenna for better reception or use an outdoor antenna.

FAQs:

/ entered the Captions mode, but no captions are appearing,

why?

If no caption signal is received, no captions wilt appear, but the television will remain in the Caption mode.

Why is there a big black box on the screen?

Because you are in a Captions mode. Turn the captions off, or select a different Captions mode.

SETTING THE V-CHIP

V-Chip enables parents to prevent their children from watching inappropriate material on TV. V-Chip reads the ratings for programming (except for news, sports, unedited movies on premium cable and Emergency System signals), then denies access to programming if the program's rating meets the limitations you select. In this case, the program will be blocked.

Most types of television interference can be remedied by adjusting the height and position of the VHF/UHF antenna.

Outdoor antennas are recommended for best results if not using cable or a satellite. The most common types of television interference are shown below. If one of these symptoms appear when the TV is connected to a Cable TV system, the disturbance may be caused by the local cable company broadcast.

IGNITION:

Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, picture may Rutter or drift.

Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electric drills and other electric appliances.

GHOSTS:

Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is the direct path and the other is re Rected from tall buildings, hills or other objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve the reception.

SNOW:

If your receiver is located in the fringe area of a television station where the signal is weak, your picture may be marred by the appearance of small dots. When the signal is extremely weak, it may be necessary to install an external antenna to improve the picture.

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE:

This interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks, and in some cases, causes loss of contrast in the picture.

PICTURE SIZE VARIATION:

A slight picture size variation is quite normal when you adjust the

CONTRAST or BRIGHTNESS setting.

To prevent _re or shock hazard, disconnect your unit from the AC power source when cleaning. The _nish on the receiver may be cleaned with a dust cloth and cared for as other furniture.

Use caution when cleaning and wiping the plastic parts. Mild soap and a soft, damp cloth may be used.
